Can some whose cape was actually cut for the rods, take a picture of the proper place where the rods are meant to go in...

I just don't want to cut the wrong area, so if you cut them yourself... please disregard this message unless of course you just widened the area to existing cuts.

I'm starting to get overly annoyed at these little bits that, at $240 dollars shouldn't be an issue at all... :mad:

Thanks Guys!

Yeah, i can't find it... there is just too many pages to rummage through... i'm already bothered by the missing speck of paint on the faceplate and the emblem... and i still haven't heard back from SSC yet...

And this may also get people asking "what's wrong with you??"

But mine was also missing that strip of cardboard that goes across the figure while in the foam.

Yeah, i may sound crazy but at the price, i want all the stuff it should come with and that includes paint, plastic, paper and a cape with holes cut in it. :/

For those still fiddling with the cape, a couple pictures detailing what I did.

First of all, pull it down until it meets the edges of the bat emblem, as this will give it the best fit and allow it to reach the floor. Fold the wires at the bottom to give you a straight edge and angular shape for the first fold, as seen here. Just think of it as creases in a wing that are folded against each other when the wing is relaxed. The end result will be very angular at the bottom but straight on the way down.

Then proceed back, folding it into itself and mimicking the way a folded wing would look. There's still going to be a little puffy bit at the back, but that's unavoidable.

On my thread in the art section, on the second page I have posted some pics of this situation, including the tools I used to make the proper fit for the rods, hope it helps.
 
can someone please explain to me what it means when someone says they "futz" a cape? what is futz?
 
Ah, ok. I thought for a second there Eric received his shipment. Oh well, back to waiting then.

I bought it for $10 more than what I would of payed, If i bought it from Eric. Plus it came with the exclusive bag, so that was cool. When he told me that he will be getting it in march, I was like:
