The figure looked good for me at first but my mind has changed think i'll just cancel it.. Want some other things anyways.

Starting to lean this way myself after Rory's review. Even though this is on the cheaper side of the HT spectrum, it still eclipses $200 and it appears to be poorly made.

Exactly. I can't see myself spending $214.99 plus shipping on him. Just cancelled him. I'm bummed that I had to cancel but its not worth it if poorly made like that. Too bad... Really wanted this in my collection.

Nice job Rory, came out good.

Hey Yankee! Thanks man, pity it didn't come out of the box on this body.
I love the idea of this figure, it's a pity they seemed to have rushed it.

Hey Rory
Can I ask how much a new body for this guy would run approximately? How much total do you think it'd cost to fix this guy up out of the box?
Thanks!

 

[imthebestatwhatido]

Too many other things coming out in the near future. Star spangled cap won't be joining the entourage

Not sure what the TTM-19 is going for these days (Indy body) that's what I used on mine. That's all you need really?

Ok thanks!

Looks like the bodies are going for ~ $30 on eBay. $215 + shipping at SSC + $30 for the body... going to cancel this guy.

Yeah, that is too steep for this. It's very throwaway in its execution. Pity.

 

[Lawrence]

I kinda want to cancel, but not because I don't want. I'm thinking it might be a shelf warmer, & I can pick it up again at SSC when they have a discount coupon I can use on it.

Sounds like a good idea, but I don't think I'll do that

I think the figure looks great. It is suppose to have a crappy handmade quality about the suit. Like some old lady threw it together or something. Didn't anybodies grandmother ever make them a Super Hero Halloween costume on here? Wish I could find my Batman costume my granny made for me back in 77. I would totally get this if I collected Marvel.

yup, although the govmt made this one lol, it is what it is, its not a james bond 3 piece italian tailored, its a padded stage costume, not for combat, and they translated it

 

[dms54nyc]

Of all the accessories I cant believe theres no pointing hand. Hes pointing in all the posters lol. I watched the movie again last night, it made me really want to order.

ugh he cant lift his arm to his head even they did lol

 

[teemu]

Anyone planning on using this sheild to get the rounded classic sheild look?

 

[Doomsday]

ugh he cant lift his arm to his head even they did lol

come to think of it your right, the way the costume is tailored, a saluting pose may not have been even possible with the figure

 

[dms54nyc]

Yeah and in the promo pics they try to make him look like hes pointing but instead he looks like hes reaching lol they knew they shoulda made a pointing hand right there and tried to get away with it lol.

Yeah but what can you do lol. Honestly every figure I get I cant fully pose like I plan too. Has anyone tried the punching the ground landing pose with the mark 7 lol. As will smith would say. "I feel like imma break this dam thing"

too true, I nearly broke one of the arm joints on my DX09 trying to get Batman to look like he was throwing his batarang, I just gave up and had have him posed just standing, looking like his menacing self, you have to remember the money you put into one of the figures when you unbox them and are messing around with them

yepp lol I know some guys are good at customizing but I cant just take my figs apart like that. I saw a guy on here put banes arms on thor for a sick figure doing awesome posing. But I don't have the money for multiple figs like that either lol. I know I saw some guy took off batmans undersuit to get him on the bike properly, but again lol no way am I cutting the costume off a $300 figure. Nothing but respect for the guys who have the talent for that stuff.
