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

[MONK]

Come on, the harness is warping that suit all up, remove the harness and smooth the suit out, bet you the hole are right where they belong. All these dents and warping are because the decided to ship this figure with the harness on. Just remove it and let the rubber go back to it's shape. maybe a little hot air with a blow dryer will help.

Are you serious? Spliff's Batman looks like someone grabbed him by the collar and man handled him! And I don't think any amount of blow drying is going repair the dented abdomen on these figures...as someone else mentioned for $250, we shouldn't have to!!

BTW everyone - My figure has the dent on the abdomen (right side), the boots however seem fine.

Congrats!! I cancelled mine last week! After reading the HT interview, it was mentioned that they where concerned about the rubber, and wondering how it will hold up in ten years. with that in mind and all the other stuff coming out, I cancelled! and now reading all the problems that's happening with this batch, I'm happy that I did!

live for the day dude.

With all these broken ankles I'm beginning to think Kathy Bates works for HT.

She's the QC manager. She's Batman's biggest fan.

UPS/Fedex.

 

[Tyranus7]

UPS/Fedex.

No, USPS option? Is just in my experience when shipping to my country USPS is faster, and safer, than UPS, Fedex, DHL, TNT, .. , and they do not extra charge you for "handling" concept.

Nope, no USPS.

Fedex.

And the box usually are handled better, compared to UPS.

 

[Lee in MI]

Dayum!!! Gotta hurry up and open this thing cause SSCs will run out of replacements and start just offering refunds & partial refunds.

 

[EVILFACE]

He's lik MEH because all the hype about this figure has died and probably owns the older OC BATS . Now the new one, your getting a BW sculpt & a harness . I want mine bad but i feel i'll be sorta meh too

Beyond being a re-release, I think the Meh feeling is because people ruin the new figure experience by combing through the thread going over every single detail of every single picture and youlube "reviews" so much there is nothing new once you get the figure. Not much left to enjoy and the figure is dumped off and the process repeated for the next must have item.

 

[EXOTICLEX]

I def won't be meh. This will be my first bale sculpt. Can't wait till tomorrow. Was originally supposed to be here today but got held up at SS I guess.

 

[EVILFACE]

Yea, in hand the Bale sculpt is amazing good. Bestest ever almost.

Just checked my bats, and his abs are kind of screwy too. Not as bad but not perfect. Cottonball should fix it. Ankles are all good, but for the prices we pay, we should be getting MUCH better. I want to care about my figure's issue, but thus thing is just too damn cool. Terrible, I know.
