That's exactly what I did after it almost went sailing right off the table.

Great review man! The Batpod is next Hot Toys figure on my list. Hope it's still available next year at retail.
Hmm... Interesting input here, I've had friends who bought figures dirt cheap and I'm new to the hobby so I'm not as experienced as you guys are in this field.
Any ideas on how I should proceed?
Bump? Anyone?
I'd alert ebay and put in a paypal claim ASAP.
Has any renowned futzer given the DX12 + Bat-pod combo a try?
As seen in my video, I have both but haven't attempted to put him on the pod yet. For some reason, I don't want to at the moment. I may attempt it with the DX2 figure first to see how it goes and then maybe try it with the DX12. Ultimately I think I am saving that seat for Catwoman.
Just do it man and post pics asap!
You know what? Maybe I will. I think the main reason I decided not to is because I spent a lot of time setting it up and posing Batman. I wanted to shoot the review vid showing each item on it's own. I also felt that with the figures hands popping off so easily and the arm handles on the pod popping off easy as well, that it would make for a frustrating time. However, I will give it a go and post pics when done.
Ok, I've sent a message to support at ebay, and paypal, if the seller does not respond to my immediate message about wanting a refund I will put in a claim. Thanks for the help.

Just ordered mine at a really low price on ebay straight from China.
75 pounds + 35 shipping. Most asking prices on stores are double or triple that amount and the seller has 100% positive score.
I'm sure you can find his shop on ebay.
Got amazing deals going on, just saw a HT Tumbler go for 150 pounds+30something shipping.
My DX-12 Batman is on it's way, and I can't wait for his matching Bat-Pod!
Nice review JB! I like your input and opinions but I especially like when people talk about things like fragility, what to look out for and the downsides in their reviews. That's always really important stuff.
So did yours have any of the QC problems that were talked about?
To guys that owned the first edition: there's a lot of talk about how bad figures sit on the pod and you can't make them look natural. Was it the same way with the first pod? Since this is supposed to be an identical reboot I'm assuming that the original had the same problem, right?
And if anyone is willing to sell their "flying" cape from the original edition, PM me. This plastic thing that they offered with reboot is total horse s__t.
However like I mentioned in the vid, it's not a deal breaker. I don't mind the eye lids or the cowl like so many people are complaining about in that thread. I can't believe that people are going as far as resculpting or painting the eye lids and stuff. Call me crazy, but I think the HS is fine as is.
I haven't seen a single pic of the DX 12 Batman on the Batpod that looks nice. In fact, it seems like 2 or 3 people tops have tried it. That's pretty much the reason I bought both of them. From the looks and sounds of it though, I'm a bit concerned.
This doesn't look good to me at all,
And I don't think it's that particular collector's doing. It looks like he tried his best to make it look natural on it, which is probably difficult to do with the handle bar parts falling off along with the hands and ****ty arms.
