Looks really good Ecko! My widening mod isn't as effective as I'd like. I used the plastic from a qtip and its hollow so they are sort of getting pressed flat. May need to replace those.

Looks Great^^^ But i think you need to use flat black paint on the eyelids , that looks a bit glossy

Nice pics, guys. Do you have any custom cape or are the stock ones? I have a short rayon cape from lForigno waiting my DX12.

Can't get the cape in. Which way should the clips face?

EDIT: never mind i just got it

 

[Mr. EcKo]

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

They only go in one way , if its any other way , the cape would be inside out

I Mix it with paint thinner, water should also do the trick. But with a sculpted eye piece? I didn't bother sanding, so some part of lower the eye are just cut with xacto knife. I think that why it gives it a glossy look with a lot of light.

Mr. EcKo, I have a question for you. It's easy to put the Iforigno's cape? Because this has no any clips.

Gotcha

Yes , just stuff it in the holes where the cape goes , eith use the opposite smooth end of tweezers or a toothpick .

I just pushed mine in until i was happy with the "V" in the back

had a chance to play around with mine (finally)
im not sure what peoples issues where with the ab straps or misaligned body panels....you just have to pose the body under the suit correctly and they all go away

seriously...damn near ever nitpick i have read in various thread is user error and not caused by the figure at all. you just have to pose it and not be afraid the thing will break if you breath on it

i also kinda get the feeling that this figure was meant to be the dark knight 2.0 and NOT "the dark knight rises" but had to release it as such due to licensing or some such nonsense.

I heard some good news. In the past 48 hours, Sideshow has managed to print a label with my shipping address formatted to their very precise specifications. Now apparently it's going to take them up to another 48 hours to put the label on the package. I'm not sure how many of those 48 hours will be spent peeling the label off its backer and how many will involve applying the label to the package, they didn't break that down for me.

They did assure me that I'd receive an email when it was done. Probably to let me know it would be another 24 to 48 hours to walk it over to the truck in the loading dock.

Anyone else get the feeling that Tim Conway's Oldest Man is the only person working in Sideshow's shipping department?

Ok i'm done working on this for now . I'm happy with it . until i can find another thing that resembles the BanePod , this will do.
Just need to exacto knife the rough paint
And add another coat of flat black

I had Devil hook it up with some PS and crop and square off my screen grab of the Banepod

Pics in Bats hand later , Cam dead
