Re: The Dark Knight New Costume PHOTO Thread.

Can somebody please direct me to Voudoun's post with the pictures and instructions on how to attach the cape?

Are you looking to not re-use the clips ?

Re: The Dark Knight New Costume PHOTO Thread.

yeah would rather not use those bulky clips, want the cape to sit completely flat

Thanks a lot

Re: The Dark Knight New Costume PHOTO Thread.

Make sure it's a little wider than the clips itself so it's tight (not jammed), and wont fall out from the weight of the new cape.

I had to test it before I put it together.

batman's grenade launcher...just paint it silver...

Hmm. Interesting. Anyone got a screen grab of the sticky gun?

i know they're not identical, and batman's looks much more advanced and high-tech, but when i saw that, i thought to myself, "Self: this gun + silver spray paint = batman's grenade launcher."

Re: The Dark Knight New Costume PHOTO Thread.

I guess you could you use as a base gun, but it would have to modded, added pieces, rods, features, etc.

Betcha some of the custom Guys here could make one out of that. But might be better to wait for the HT TDK DX with sonar eyes and Film accurate Sticky Gun.

i was just looking at some screen caps, and ht should definitely make a new mms dx 2, dk batman with much more accessories:

-extra batman head, with LED sonar eyes
-much more batarangs (obviously), with batarang holder on belt like the begins figure
-cell phone also like begins figure
-better bale sculpt with better hair, and a screen accurate suit
-pneumatic wrangler...he actually used with the dk suit, not just the bb suit
-backpack with wired cape
-grappling gun (obviously) but with multiple, attachable, different length wires with hooks at the ends
-mini bomb (obviously)
-grenade launcher...screen accurate
-parachute? from hong kong scene...maybe...
-maybe the stand could be a LED bat-signal, or it would be an accessory?

sound good? am i missing anything?

-We never see him use batarangs in the DK suit.
-When do we see him use the pneumatic wrangler in the DK suit?
-The only thing worth doing with the grapple gun is having the appropriate side holster instead of the begins backside clip.
-When does he use a grenade launcher?

not grenade launcher, sticky bomb gun. sorry. my bad

batarangs and grapple guns he needs simply because they are just damn cool

pneumatic wrangler, or something very similar or updated was used in Hong Kong to hold onto Lao.

Re: The Dark Knight New Costume PHOTO Thread.

I thought he holds onto Lau with some sort of belt/harness device.

it's possible, but to me it looks like the pneumatic wrangler.

Re: The Dark Knight New Costume PHOTO Thread.

might be a buckle, or an updated pneumatic wrangler. i don't know for sure. i was not on the set at the time.

it still would make a good accessory...

That's a Skyhook harness attached to an inflatable balloon chute which pulls them out the window.

The plane hooks the chute. Sky. Hook.

Re: The Dark Knight New Costume PHOTO Thread.

If it'd save some money on totaly figure price, it's a passable item, it wouldn't enhance a figure's shelf display. It's cool in the movie when the sky hook escape is put into effect, but for figures it'd just be two figures strapped together.

If they did a TDK suit DX figure, I'd want:

-Improved body proportions between the head and everything else
-Stick bomb gun and a couple stick bombs
-Grapple gun with side holster
-Accurrate Bale head from after Rachel's death
-LED lit sonar head
-Wired cape
-Flying cape (probably achievable just with wires, but a firmer frame might make it look nicer
-Suit and weapons storage rack

I think a set like that would cover important items from the film that can also have presence in a display.

You forgot the kitchen sink.

Re: The Dark Knight New Costume PHOTO Thread.

I think if they did a DX of this figure I'd have to pass. The one they gave us is good enough for me, but I would like the sticky bomb gun.
