Hot Toys Bruce Wayne/Batman (2011 Toy Con Ex) review + pics

[Solidus]

Very good. But why has that particular line become so popular.

Good question! I have no idea, though. Just one of the mysteries of the Internet, I guess.

I realize I'm pretty much spamming with pics at this point, but I tweaked the pose a bit. I'll be sticking with this display at least until Superman shows up.​

Not a problem - this way, when I attempt to flat out steal this pose, it'll be easily accessible.

I wouldn't keep it out in the open like that.

 

[Maglor]

That's nice.

Those are fantastic pics. My figure is currently utilizing the grapnel gun as well. Really surprised more peopled don't utilize it.

Why the hell does this figure look so dry?, my TDK version looks to be in better shape and thats been on display awhile now.

The Bruce Wayne figure has been painted a very dark flat gray to more accurately reflect the actual costume under normal lighting. I personally prefer the shinier black look of the OC. Looks more like the costume as seen on screen.

Awesome!

Could you tell us what you did with the cape clips? Are you using the ones from the first OC or did you cut them off the new cape??

 

[DiFabio]

You actually don't have to cut them off the cape Maglor, they come right off through the holes.

Yeah, it works well. Though I mostly have it displayed like the light saber look.

Fascinating detail the back of the suit though.

First figure.

Yeah my OC Batman has the lightsaber/old west grapnel gun look at his side. Since the OC Batman is technically from TDK, especially with the mangler I thought the grapnel at side look would be appropriate.

I don't know if you did it but I made a makeshift holster out of a black twist tie. I hate that blocky attachment that the DX 02 has.

Awesome Pictures Vodoun

Just seeing this now - well done Maglor - looks great. It's a beast!

Glad it worked out.

So many applications. It was destined to become great.

Not sure what you mean...

Aren't the new clips attached to a post of sorts? THat would have to be removed to place it the way vodoun has it.

First figure.

Ah, that's what I thought.

What are you doing with the OC now?

Thanks! And thanks for the tips Penny.

I used both a scissors and a dremel.

Nope, the pegs just fit through the holes of the new cape. You can just pull them off the cape without cutting.

I'm actually looking to buy some myself. If anyone has a cape but aren't interested in those peg clasps, let me know.





EDIT:


But yeah, to achieve what Vodoun has done, you'd have to cut off the pegs on the clips. I know some people even glued them to the cowl to make it function like the TAKARA.

No interest in having the clips way back on the shoulders where the holes are. No interest at all.
