Hot Toys DX09 - BATMAN - Batman (Michael Keaton) - Specs & Pics

I still think the custom cape makes the shoulders look to narrow, apart from that it looks good

Completely disagree pal, I really think the cape moulds around the body beautifully imo. I love the way it looks natural...

for robertobagg10..

I want give an advice
remove the cowl and use an hairdryer to adjust the spike on the shoulder, then try to make some beautiful pics like these with sunny light, because the color of the cape and the cowl doesn't match so good..
anyway good work with the futzing...

Appreciate the feedback Shadow. Thanks but how do i go about using the hair dryer? Am i heating up the plastic and then bending the spikes? after how long should i be heating it up for?

5-8 seconds medium/high heat. It will soften and be very manuverable before long. I usually do a 5 second burst,pause if needed another 3-5 seconds that way Im sure I dont overdo it and melt it. Also Id focus on two at a time,left side,right side then backside. Good luck!

i am not quite secure about the fast heating way on it, we are talking about rubber material..it could be dry too much and damaged it...
you have to heat for 1/2 min with a medium power,then bending more than the shape desired and use the cold air on it.., when you will put the cowl again the spike will take the perfect shape, sorry for my english...

I think I understand shadow...heat the cowl on a medium heat for abt half a minute and then start to bend the spikes downwards then use cold air? Will the spikes stay in the new position or will they bend back to their original state?

Here are some more pics of my DX09

the spikes will take the position you want but you have to bend them a little bit more than the desired position..nice pics...

I know it isn't realted to the figure, but I figured some of you might dig this...

Recently, a gentleman named Mark Jones posted a large selection of pictures he took of the Gotham City set back in 1989. With his blessing, I have spent the last few days working the pictures into a "virtual tour" of Gotham- Identifying the different building, figuring out the layout of the set, and working them into a blog post for my 89 Batman fansite. You can check it out here if you're interested:
