Re: HOT TOYS : MMS DX 12 - The Dark Knight Rises - BATMAN / BRUCE WAYNE Full Specs &

I know this is a little off topic but just read they already talking another batman movie reboot. I think they should let this trilogy breath a little before rebooting the bat wth all new cast....The bastards in movies love to ruin things...The article then go's on who would be next joker and brings up johnny depp or mark hammil and would be interesting if hammil said yes with him thinking he can retire just to make a huge come back with episode 7 on the horizon for him and becoming the joker on the big screen...Again these are just idea's brought up in article on next batman movie REBOOT ...Because if they do another batman movie there will be another joker sometime. I didnt want to start a thread but wondered what people thought about them wanting to do another so quickly...Why not just work on that rumored justice league instead 1st. is my thought's...

All I know is that it means more toys to buy...
 
Re: HOT TOYS : MMS DX 12 - The Dark Knight Rises - BATMAN / BRUCE WAYNE Full Specs &

I guess thats a good way to look at it...
 
Re: HOT TOYS : MMS DX 12 - The Dark Knight Rises - BATMAN / BRUCE WAYNE Full Specs &

Also, I would think they want to do Batman before introducing a Justice League movie.

I'm pretty sure bale said no to jla but dont think that bats needs another movie before justice league...I always thought that Warner Bros like to sit on thier 2 top golden boys 'bats &superman" for a while after they come out...I guess can understand superhero's our hot market right now and thats the reason for the push to reboot so fast...They need to step back and think before just releasing another...

After waiting so long for this, I was happy to open up tonight. I am very impressed with it overall.

The new suit is nice but not as posable as I thought it would be.

The metal thingies they put in the cape so that it can be posed closer to his body, make livable. A great idea actually that I did not know was implemented. I still am thinking about an lforigno cape though...

The belt and stand are both fantastic. As this figure become more readily available, I'll be buying one of his belts for my DX02 and OC.

I'm not good at pinpointing small details but the cowl, EYES and faceplates are nice! I do like the mods members have done on here but I'm happy enough with it, as is, that it won't bug me not to attempt them heh.

Ordering this was a no brainer for me but I'm glad I don't feel disappointed, let down or "meh" with it. It only increases my angst in wanting Bane and Selina...like...now.

Faceplate should not be too sunken IMO...
that's one of the major areas this cowl fails, it doesn't feel like there is a head inside.

Does it though?

Looks black right up to the whites of his

Today, we all learn how shadows work. :lol

Sorry, I had to. Face Batman away from light and you can't see the pink of the inner corners of his eyes. Doesn't mean they aren't there. Just saying. You can't paint the carunculas of a person's eyes unless you want to hurt them.

Shadows, yes.



I guess but looking close at stills from the film, it does appear that he has a little pink in that area. Minor for sure but a little. I'm wondering if doing the mod but leaving just a little pink right at that border would be more realistic. It might be that way and because it is mostly covered, the lighting on camera makes it appear all black in most scenes.

Bingo .

Yep, I'm not arguing against that, but the way many of us take photos, we tend to get up real close to the cowl, and there its easy to tell.

Regardless, I said it was a good compromise.

Which reminds me, I need to take some macro shots. :lecture

Nice pics r5150s...

This fig is growing on me but the elbow pads still = FAIL. Gonna do the heat mod on em and bend them in.

Plus my cod piece is coming loose from some minor posing...:huh

I actually think it does. The DX02 face plates are longer and give the impression of a larger head in the cowl.

Definitely looks smaller with the DX12 face plates to my eye.

:goodpost: :exactly:

Exactly. Here's another observation: you'll notice with 89 bats, the cowl on Keaton's small frame made him look bobble headed if you took off the cape. This is for the movie suit. It was replicated on the toy. With the suit in returns it was a bit more form fitting. thus the size was toned down, but like the previous movie, profile shots show just how massive the cowl looked.

Now with bale bats. The cowl isn't oversized. Take off the cape and his head is still in Proportion to the rest of his body. Yes I've taken his armor into account, but everything is relative. The cowl, despite being form fitting will add width and height to his head, but when you throw in the rest of his gear, like I said previously, it's perfect and nothing will seem oversized.

Now with the figure itself. Maglor and others are right. The stock face plates sit too far into the cowl, therefore giving it the illusion of a slightly undersized head. It's already been illustrated. Unfortunately, not everyone has or is willing to mod the dx02 plates for a multitude of reasons, but for others and myself...we are just not satisfied with the stock plates because they don't look good and are undersized.

I feel like I gave a dissertation on this subject, but the bottom line is, the head isn't undersized.

I will post up some pictures as soon as I get some free time! My wife just gave birth to our 2nd child. So have my hands full for now! :yess:

Batman, schmatman. I just wanted to say CONGRATULATIONS!!! :1-1:

My DX12 is at my local Parcelforce depot, it's even loaded onto the vehicle for delivery. But I have to wait until Monday as they don't deliver on Saturday. I have a feeling this weekend may drag out.
