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

[MONK]

What a nightmare this figure has been

Back when I first got it, It was so annoying for me that I looked it over slightly checking for the infamous dent in the abs, legs and ankle problems etc. I stuck it back in the box and It's been there ever since. Will display the new DKR, Joker, Bane, Gordon and tumbler however.

Not a bad deal for the best 1/6 Batman boots on the market thus far.

Why are they considered the best boots? Sorry newb here

The sculpt is better than the others. Ankles don't seem to break... at least not as quickly as others.

Just got mine in the mail today. So much more imposing then the other versions(IMO) the best batman figure I own!

Yep.


All the other boots just look so clunky by comparison. The DX02 boots are cast in a different rubber that just give them a sleeker, sharper look.

Thanks bro!
I'm going to try and get pics up tomorrow hopefully.
It's got the extra length Lforigno cape as well.
It's a really amazing figure, pics don't do it justice.

This is my 3rd time over a period of a week trying to post pics in this topic, and every time I get "your post will not be visible until a moderator has approved it for posting" !!! is it normal on this forum, or is it cause I'm a new member? and how long does it take the moderators to approve posts ??

It's because you're a new member, there is an incubation period... to prevent spammers

So my replacement bats from SSC turned out to have a busted ankle... It seemed fine when I opened it originally...anyway, I just wanted to be sure before I get a replacement boot...the DX02 boots work/match the figure? Any idea where to get these other than Evilbay?

 

[dsokyra]

Do the MMS71 boots work??

 

[Thomas90]

Crap, keep meaning to post some pics!

Are those the Takara gauntlets? Sweet pose by the way...

 

[Ninjaknight]

Just wanna let anyone with the broken ankle issue know that I did a straight swap with the DX02 boots and it is 100% perfect now.

Even the finish of the DX boots aren't that matte, giving a very slight contrast to the overall look.

So to anyone who has a broken ankle. DX02 boots are the best quick fix!

Cheers!




P.S. Anyone know how to swap the takara gauntlets over? Will it be a straight swap or do I need to mod them 1st?

Straight swap.

 

[Thomas90]

Those gauntlets improve it immensely. I need to get a set!

Straight swap.

Do I need to tuck the rubber in?
Will it crease the rubber forearms?

Cheers!
