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

[Maglor]

Thanks a ton man. I sent you a PM.

I wish o had the nerve to do this. I'd actually try it if I had second sculpt.

I need to send mine to you, Mags.

I'm glad you guys like the mod, but I'm sorry I just wouldn't be comfortable moding someone else's.

The giraffe neck was bad enough that I was willing to risk destroying mine, but I wouldn't want to do that to another member's. Too scary!

 

[Maglor]

Cape clip mod... hmm ill need to search this

Snap the peg off the clip and then glue the clip to the cowl

There's a less permanent method invented by jye4ever.

Here's the picture tutorial I made for it a while back:



Cut the tab off the clips and tape the clips to the litle plastic washers:

Then...

I actually have an extra I bought for just such a reason.

My question about this mod is where is the washer coming from?

Will have to think about this. It's pretty time consuming...

My question about this mod is where is the washer coming from?

It's on the figure as part of the original clip attachment design.

Home depot , or any hardware store you can get one or just use the one that came with the clips

 

[Maglor]

^^^Nope. See post above.

You definitely want to use the black plastic washers that are on the figure.

 

[Mr. EcKo]

^^^Nope. See post above.

Why? The OC Batman didn't have washers so you would need to "find" some , I'm sure any rubber washers would work if they are the same diameter

But anyhow , yeah just use the ones that came with it

I am gonna have to get him out again. I have never screwed with the clips for fear of losing them but I dont remember a washer. Are they attached to the cape clips or the cape itself?

Ah, didn't know that. If you have the OC, then just make sure the washers you use are black so that they don't show. And actually you don't have to use washers. Any approximate black piece of plastic would work.

I honestly don't remember. But, they're part of the clip set-up somewhere. (Possibly under the suit.)

Can anyone tell me what head this is. I know it's not the Toy Con one but I'm not sure if it's the OC or maybe the Medicom.

 

[Jokes & Bats]

Maybe a customised or recast Hot Toys?

 

[spiderbo]

I am pretty sure the face had been repainted.

 

[mmurrer]

The sculpt looks like HT's OC Batman. The extreme flash doesn't help in telling us whether it's a recast or not.

 

[mmurrer]

I am pretty sure the face had been repainted.

Those don't look like HT's paint apps, indeed. The neck also seems shorter, but it could just be the angle the photo was taken from.

 

[spiderbo]

Sorry my photo taking skills are very lacking. Thanks for any input guys.

I did that clip mod with the EB 1/4 scale Batman as well, as the magnets were pissing me off. It's a very handy little mod and real easy to do.

Looks like a repainted OC to me.
