The suit is flexible so the ribs move

The ribs come way too far forward.
They actually cover the abs in some poses.

That should never happen

you know the rule - NEVER say NEVER!

'Things will get ugly'

It shall be done.

I missed this post.

Now I finally know what the sam hell you were talking about all those pages.

Makes sense and would have to agree.

Well that was part of it...

I wish the figures torso was shaped more like Bale's in the suit. DX02 looked like a tube and while DX12 is more curvy it's still not close enough.

Yeah, should be more "V" shaped.

Am I the only one that thinks that the ab plates are a bit too low?

Maybe it's just the angle.

Chest is too high. But I think with posing/futzing that will go away.

In this picture of the real Bale in a suit - if it was the figure people would be freaking out that the PERS look too googley...

Chest is not too high, the Ab armour is too low

Look at it compared to the arms

Never?

SnakeDoc

Damn. Guess that was a bad word to use.


Anyway, in the comparison pics I chose he is in a fighting stance almost identical to the figures pose, and the real deal doesn't have the ribs and abs anywhere near each other.


With the figure they are almost touching at a neutral stance. :/

Would like to see someone photoshop the ribs shorter in one of these pics:

I can see Hot Toys fixing that in production. From what I see in the pics and and what the specs say it's a new body made specifically for this Batman.

Look at the right side of the abs, same space you are talking about, but they are not touching.

Just the way they posed it maybe?

Those pieces are at different lengths in the combat pictures because they're individual pieces of armor hooked and attached onto a mesh/body suit. It's not a three piece rubber suit like the toys will be.

Lol @ this forum nitpicking silly stuff as usual

Re: HOT TOYS : MMS DX 12 - The Dark Knight Rises - Batman/Bruce Wayne Full specs and

Wonder what'll be wrong with this figure tomorrow

I think that side-by-side zach posted looks wtf accurate.

Wow, looking at the intricacies of the 1:1 suit this close - I gotta say, you can't reproduce this in 1:6 scale via mass production. I respect the arguments for accuracy - but help me understand - do you really expect HT to remake this exact design that you see in the pics above with assembly line style production and sell it for $260? There's just no way. Don't get me wrong - it's doable... but we're talking hand-crafting each figure individually over the course of many months. And forget about $260 - try AT LEAST $1000 per figure. I know there are some of you willing to pay that - but HT is a business that's in it to strike a balance between profit and quality. And don't kid yourself that they don't lean more towards the profit part of the equation. So if they released a production run of say 20 figures, they could probably make all your wettest dreams come true. But the truth is, they'll make 1000's in order to do what a business typically wants to do - make money.

What? Take a look at the figure and the actual suit side-by-side. Hot Toys did a pretty damn good job. There's not much I see on the figure that they didn't replicate. They actually have a fabric suit with the correct individual pieces of armor. They even did the translucent armor sections. The stuff they got wrong is actually easily fixable compared to what they already put into making this figure.

Re: HOT TOYS : MMS DX 12 - The Dark Knight Rises - Batman/Bruce Wayne Full specs and

Yeah I don't know wtf jdeezy is talking about. HT replicated how it's made. Individual parts on an underlayer.

Re: HOT TOYS : MMS DX 12 - The Dark Knight Rises - Batman/Bruce Wayne Full specs and

Don't get me wrong - I'm not a critic. I feel they reproduced the figure very well, but some criticisms(or nitpicking depending on which side of the fence you're on) seem to be aimed at the engineering of the suit - especially the armor. Calls for the proper sliding of the individual pieces with the figure's range of motion; proper distances of armor pieces from each other when posed in comparable positions to the 1:1 production shots; and every intricacy down to curvature of individual pieces of the smallest parts of the suit(e.g. neck and collar armor parts). I just want to UNDERSTAND the level of detail the harshest critics are looking for and not just lambast them for whiny nitpicking. I'm just saying - if they're really looking for 1 to 1 exact similarity between the 1:1 scale and the 1:6 scale - you need hand-craft/customization type work and not mass-prouction/assembly-line style work. And you sure as hell aren't gonna get that for $260.

Finally PO Batman, almost die from extreme heat ....

Saw the proto, suit looks very thin! yeah~

Re: HOT TOYS : MMS DX 12 - The Dark Knight Rises - Batman/Bruce Wayne Full specs and

The DX12 neck piece is 100% wrong.

Anytime we see him without the cowl he has the FULL neck piece. So now sure what HT were thinking

The HK scene... these shots in the batcave... it's always with the full neck armour.

That's why I love the Medi neck with the Wayne head.
