It is F'ing perfect.

Yeah man dont pass it up any longer

Hey guys thinking about getting this is there any faults to it like with the dx 02 or anything.

Not sure if anyone else has this problem but 2 of my faceplates on mine stick out far to much. Kinda throws the nice sculpt off

I have to agree. Despite I can't get him to pose his arms that much.

Don't miss out on this figure.



Jokes and Bats, what's up with my figure? Is it just a case of me having to work the rubber in? It seems like everyone else has no problem posing his arms.

Sounds like a random QC issue. Have you looked into finding replacements? I have heard of people sanding down face plates on the DX 12.

Yeah, lots of people have that. The neural and open mouth sculpts, right?

I could've sworn there was a thread here that discussed about leaking abs, akin to the dx02?

Unless that issue was blown out of proportion?

 

[The Chev]

I never heard anything about it, nor any complaints. Maybe some of the old timers have though.

A couple people jumped the gun, but I believe they were all false alarms.

Been wanting to pick this up as I am looking into getting the 89 Batmobile but this is pricy on ebay. Think I'll wait for the Returns version as people on here have suggest. This looks amazing though.

have my dx09 for a year now. no leaking abs or oily suit whatsoever.

I think it was a case of honest mis-identification. The glue on the belt-magnet was not great and marked the body a little (easily fixed) and just one more revelation at HT's crap choice in glue...still current today!

Yes those 2 are like that. Any tips to fix it?

have my dx09 for a year now. now leaking abs or oily suit whatsoever.

So it has leaking abs i’m confused.

No. No leaking abs. There was some confusion due to an early misidentification of the crappy glue (used by HT to hold the magnet in the belt in place) leaving a tacky residue.

It was never a DX02 type, leaky abs problem.

I personally would also pick the '89 version if you can afford to have both as he is a top notch figure from head to toe.

Also thanks for that stock cape tutorial Jokes & Bats.

Thanks for the input Sid. I am not really a hot toys collector but am hoping to pick up the 89 Batmobile as I love it and want to have one on display in my collection room when I eventually get one lol. It looks better with a figure to display with so that's why I was looking at this. At the prices I might just wait and see what the returns version is like. I only recently got into the world of SS statues and such and I really am trying not to get sucked into hot toys to. That would be tough on the old bank account. Still trying to get up the never to spend $700 on the Batmobile. Need to decide soon as its got the low quantity alert on the last few newsletters.

By the way is there any indication when the Returns figure are set to come out or is it still to early to tell?
Thanks for all the info guys.

Yeah this hobby hits the pocket hard. I also agree that it would be great to have a Burton Bats next to the Batmobile.

As far as I'm aware in a recent HT interview it was stated that they would still be made but that they would be delayed.

That cape tutorial highlights why I much prefer fully sculpted!

Now Re: custom cape it is shinier than it should be but it still looks nice and goes fine with the figure in hand. And even if it were a bit too shiny I'd rather have the extra shine that drapes fantastically than the stock cape that is a giant mess.

I like both for what they are. I currently have him with Tony's cape but wouldn't hesitate to swap it over for the stock cape if I need to achieve a different pose that I couldn't get with Tony's.
