ya i was excited then disappointed.... I honestly thought theres no way but I better respond asap just in case lol. Apparently I was not quick enough.
 
I had the same idea. I was going to take out 2 middle sections and sew the ends together. However, on closer inspection I realized that this meant the neck hole would become way too small, so I abandoned the idea.

The only way around that problem would be to cut on an angle and not follow the seams of the cape. I think that would look like ass though. :/

Have you thought of another solution?

I have something in mind where I'm going to try make my own neck hole. Sort of extending it with with another material. I haven't worked out the kinks yet but when I do I'll post pictures. My wife is very handy with sewing, stitching and the like so we're throwing ideas around. If I can't do it than I have a new cape to use if anything goes wrong with the one I have. I just have to find the time because this will not be an easy task. Oh and I do intend to follow the seams. That would indeed look like ass if I didn't.

Anyway, I thought I heard a ways back of someone spray painting the stock gauntlets to a gloss finish like the Takara ones, how does that look? Does anyone have any pics?

I look forward to seeing what you come up with. If it looks good, I may still do it. Documenting pics would be very much appreciated. :)

I swear I just saw a picture with spray gloss gauntlets, but I can't find it for the life of me...
 
Are these the stock ones painted? They look like they don't have the curve of the Takara gaunlets.

There it is! That's the picture I was looking for. Where did you find it?


Yeah, those are definitely the Hot Toys gauntlets with something to make them shiny.
 
Man I had this guy then sold it for a profit to buy something else. I really wish I hadn't.:(These _____es are going for around $400 now on EBay.

I found it in this very thread. They look a little coarse. Like they don't have a smooth texture after being painted or whatever he used.

Damn. Now did you check completed listings or are they just listed at $400? That's crazy.

Yah completed auctions. One I was watching which was unopened finished the day before yesterday for $392.00 plus shipping with like 21 bids on it.
 
I think its popularity will die down once EB's Batman Begins figure is out.

Is Enterbay the same true 1:6th scale as Hot Toys and Sideshow ? Like as opposed to Medicom which is like 1:7th scale ?
