[Maglor]

When I think of crouching, I think of myself squatting down to pick up my kid's toy....that's not crouching for me

Did I say Great Pic already

How's this for crouching?

And yes, I would say lforigno's capes are the best. The velvet are more "screen accurate" but I personally prefer the rayon because they hang a bit more naturally.

Now that's a crouch

 

[SSC EX Hunter]

May I ask what the hell a rayon is? lol

 

[Gipetto0812]

May I ask what the hell a rayon is? lol

rayon is the material of the first cape lforigno used on his custom capes. Then started with the velvet capes

 

[jye4ever]

May I ask what the hell a rayon is? lol

Oh Rayon, that's easy. It's just this:


(C6H10O5)n + nNaOH → (C6H9O4ONa)n + nH2O(C6H9O4ONa)n + nCS2 → (C6H9O4O-SC-SNa)(C6H9O4O-SC-SNa)n + nH2O → (C6H10O5)n + nCS2 + nNaOH(C6H9O4O-SC-SNa)n + ½nH2SO4 → (C6H10O5)n + nCS2 + ½nNa2SO4.

oh I remember those Chemistry days...used to know how to balance those suckers with ease!

 

[SSC EX Hunter]

I have no idea how to balance bro. I get everything but that. Anyway, which was better his rayon or velvet?

 

[Gipetto0812]

movie accurate wise I'd say velvet (which is what I own) and I think it looks great.

Maglor has both and he likes the rayon better as he says it drapes better.

knowing Mag, the pics will roll in...or do I not know you as well as I think I do buddy?

here's mine with the velvet

 

[Puay]

Lately I was considering to get this one but was taken aback when I found out the price had nearly doubled at a local retailer.

Is US$285 a reasonable price now?

Edit: Am actually refering to the DX Joker.

 

[SSC EX Hunter]

You know what would suck? If they make a whole new suit or modifications to it for The Dark Knight Rises, and then hot toys makes a whole new DX figure, (possiby putting the DX02 to bed, and dropping its value). Ima be sweating at night now lol. I mean atleast with the Joker they cant make a newer version.

Yep, good ol' Mag needs just the smallest cue to re-re-repost his pictures.

But you know what? We love your pictures Mag! Keep'em coming!

I believe this is exactly what's going to happen. The DX Jokers -- maybe all of Hot Toys' Jokers -- are going to continue to escalate in value, whereas the DX Batmans are going to plummet as soon as the new movie comes out. For starters, the new figs will hopefully not be chock full of screw-ups, and secondly, everyone will be able to buy them for $175 instead of $350 to $400, which is the insanity being asked of DX Batmans right now. Of course, once all of the new Batman figs run out, every Batman figure will continue to go up. And look at the Original Costume Batmans, they keep going up. I don't know if anyone's actually buying them at the prices they're going for, but the asking prices keep going higher.

The only plus on the side of those of us who didn't get jipped out of a good DX02, and care about the prices, is that it is the definitive TDK Bats just as the TDK OC suit is the best Original suit around. And for those extremely hardcore TDK fans, I highly doubt they'd want a TDKR batman next to their Joker considering how ____ a lot of the HT fans get over accuracy to the movie

TDKR Bats will sell out in 00000.01 seconds, don't kid yourself.

You want to know what makes these guys so Hard Core and part of an elite club, and one of my main reasons for visiting?

Their passion runs so deep and their cause is highly dedicated towards transforming what is in essence just an action figure into nearly a shrunken realistic representation of that character.

Of course it helps that HT provides a high quality basic foundation spring board for them to start with, but then watch them soar.

Hardcore you say, try hundreds and hundreds of dollars just for tailored outfits and new head sculpts, the price of a Mark IV preorder just for a Joker's shirt or vest, or dare I say....sock ......

Yes sir, 1/6 scale collecting is 100x more fun and entertaining for me to follow than polystone collecting ever was!

The best part, they go out of their way to help the noobs, never snobby or above answering questions or posting pics or links to help explain their madness...errr...process

And for that I say cheers

Viva La France! ........don't know, just sounded right
