Just my 2 cents, I guess that look should be easy to achieve, or not?!
Since the cape´s wired, you just put the front part of the cape over his shoulders behind is, back, or not?!
Will def get them, but dunno when.
Cause...since I gotta new job I wanna celebrate with a new figure next month and I want Cap, but I want Keaton Bats also...damnit...

So it's dark here, no more daylight pics for a while, iPhone pic alert!
To be honest he needs to be seen in full daylight or with a long nighttime exposure to pick up his amazing detail.. but anyway..

and this one again from earlier..

wow, thanks for these photos. amazing figure.

 

[marker2037]

Absolutely amazing pics from Luka and everyone else so far.

I'm amazed. It's a beaut!

 

[MarfMaster]

These pics are absolutely stunning. I don't know whether to thank you, or be angry at you for making the wait that much more difficult

 

[Cocoboloboy]

I doubt the Joker will be as good, even with that amazing headsculpt.

Then again, we have been surprised before.

It could be but I doubt it. This figure has such a presence, you can tell from every single pic

But then again whats 'as good'. As good as its own prototype? Or a technically better figure than Batman? The latter is going to be entirely down to personal preferance.

As far as a realistic looking, almost 1:1 scale, and accurate representation of a movie figure this one takes the cake. Joker looks really cool but when it comes to freaky realism Keaton is the best I've seen HT do.

I've never seen pictures of a figure fit so seemlessly into movie stills before or close ups of a production portrait make you think it's a real person as much as this.

Unless I missed it, has anyone mentioned him having moveable joints or are they covered in the rubber, meaning one would have to be careful with the pose selection?

I do believe Sparrow is the same quality.

 

[Avenger]

I hate not having this yet.

 

[robbiethepainter]

This one is just creepy with how real the eyes look.

 

[Voorhees27]

It'd be DAMN tough to beat this out as the figure of 2012 imo.

I was looking at that pic the other day. Might have to display one of my Bats as GIMP BATMAN.

 

[Cocoboloboy]

I do believe Sparrow is the same quality.

I definitely agree that Sparrow is the same quality if not higher due to the complexity and details of the outfit but I haven't seen one pic of him so far that looks as "real" as Batsy here.

Oh, and don't ever correct me again, jye.

 

[Predatormaniac88]

Is there instructions on how to put on the cape on the figure? looks a little tricky, kinda worried now since I always tend to screw up my figures when it comes to assembly.

Agreed, but as a general statement, done right, Batman and Iron Man figures will always look more realistic than humans or creatures because of the minimal organic components. Jack looks great but his hair gives away that he's a figure and in nice photos the details o the fabrics give away the scale. Batman, especially the 89 suit, has very little to his look to give away that it's a toy, especially since it seems the only seanlone is the back of his head so that sign isn't there and even the body armor shows no strong signs of being smaller than 1:1.

I don't feel Batman is better work than Jack, but the difference in designs allows him too shine HT's quality better.
