Hot Toys TDKR: 1/4th scale Batman [QS001] - Full Reveal & Specs

[Maglor]

EB's Bruce Wayne is terrible

Squinty... but...

Not sure who this last guy's supposed to be.

 

[Wulf]

I see more Bale in the Hot Toys headsculpt...

 

[Spitfire]

You should compare same kind of pics ...

This "godofcat" just took really good pics so ... quite hard to compare but even with that, i agree with last post. Bale is more recognizable in the Hot Toys headsculpt imo

 

[Maglor]

Someone needs to line 'em up as one pic. Never figured out how to do that yet...

 

[intothevoid]

I can't wait for Neo to get back from his holiday so he can do the lined up pics

WOW. Even I would get this and I don't collect Hot Toys or figures.

BUT...it's because it's finally 1/4 scale. I am glad these figure companies realize 1/6 scale is just too small and doesn't have that WOW impact 1/4 scale does.

Statue or not, I love the scale. And that's why I would consider it.

On the other hand, I don't really want any specific Batmans, from specific films.
That's why I will probably stick with and be happy with the classic iconic Batman PF. One Batman to represent them all!! lol

I think both Bale head scuplts look pretty good. In fact, I think the Enterbay captures a touch more emotion in the face too, with the eyebrows and slight frown of concern, or whatever lol

 

[Sithlord1975]

People prefer statues?
I don't
Just buy the ENTERBAY stand online

Hell yes! Over lightweight toys. Yes, I prefer my 1/4 scales with weight. No playing with it, no 100 accessories included. Simple and to the point.

That being said, some of these 1/4 scale "figures" have me intriuged.
For me it's the scale. I love anything 1/4 scale. That's my style.

I'd hate to see all the 1/6 cancels for this thing. Damn you HT. Is 1/4 the new 1/6?

 

[Hydeous]

The eyes on HT is better.

I like the BW sculpt of HT, judgin from those set of pics.

Agreed. The eyes are much more like Christian Bale's. But I like them both.

 

[Sir Onesixth]

Finally a 1/6th American Psycho figure ! I wonder if it will have business cards and a Phil Collins CD in scale !

 

[kardon]

Tree trunk legs look silly regardless of if they are accurate or not.

An athlete like Batman needs to have strong everything. Strong upper body, strong lower body, strong EVERYTHING. It wouldn't be practical to have weak legs doing what he does.

Spoiler

He wouldn't have been able to make the jump, fear of death or no fear of death, if his legs weren't strong enough.

The human body has evolved in such a way that proportionally, legs are supposed to be larger than arms. If your arms are larger than your legs, that's going to be disproportionate. That's why you'll hear of high level weight lifters being able to bench 700 lbs and squat 1000 lbs, but you won't find one that can bench more than they can squat unless their legs are disabled in some way. Why would anyone who is serious about developing a strong body focus purely on upper body while neglecting their legs?

 

[Maglor]

But the arms are skinny as ____.

Thats....thats a really good idea
I'm sure Enterbay will start selling them seperately soon enough.
Though its a shame because I do like the base dio Hot Toys have done...just not the crotch grabber.

these things will stand on their own, the stands aren't a necessity if they're displayed in a proper area.

Have fun with that.
I own the T-800 and its pretty sold as far as giant toys go ...but its on a shelf two meters off the ground and I wouldn't risk it taking a tumble from there.

My T-800 seems to really need the stand now anyway. The ankles have loosened up some since I got it.

I don't like the sound of that...

I don't like the sound of that...

It's a very heavy piece.

 

[Tyranus7]

The small red eyes and the pinocchio nose, kill that sculpt to me...


The 1/4 Hot Toys Bruce Wayne has a terrible chin ... but overall is more accurate than the EB one

 

[a-dev]

I don't like the sound of that...

With Batman I expect you could conceal the stand pretty easily.

Personally I don't consider it a disaster.
