Wait, you were serious?

I guess I assumed you already had this figure.

Do you have the OC Batman? If so, you might think twice about getting this. It's unlikely that you'll get one that is problem free, and you can't call up Sideshow for replacement parts anymore.

Cape recommendations plz plus where to get Takara gaunlets.

Capes?

As far as the Takara gauntlets go, you will most likely have to buy the whole figure.

Here's one for a decent price on the bay: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Takara-1-6...ultDomain_0&hash=item20c07bbed1#ht_500wt_1156


It looks like it might come with one of lforigno's capes, which would kill two birds with one stone for you. (I would message the guy to find out more about the cape.)



Again, I'm not sure where you are at with Begins Batmen, but if you get the whole Takara figure you can do like me and use him for your first night out Bat and just swap the gauntlets with the HT Bat... see below:

(Sorry for the crappy Takara pose, it can look much better than that... also, I have a better/less lumpy head to go with the ski mask now.)

That Batman pose is absolutely Badass

Great advise all around

Here goes:

I sold my Original OC and Takara 2 years ago

I am Batman Beginless

Saw that Takara on ebay as well, no brainer me thinks.

Found a seller for 250 shipped, broken ankle was replaced, everything else good except broken wrist peg, my DX02 wrist peg should work, you think so?

U da man Mag.

With replaced ankle, it's WELL worth $250 imo!

I'm sure there are lots of things you could do to replace the wrist peg. Either a DX02 one or a generic one painted black.


And buy that Takara fig ASAP! It's only $15 more than I paid and it comes with the cape!

This is the best advice, make your takbats a FNO version. that's what I did as well. The BW sculpt turned the takbats from a okay figure to a rad figure instantly!

Still haven't swapped out the gauntlets though, I'm not sure if I would like them on the takbats.
