Thks!

More or less, I removed the butt cheeks too, but then I realised it only allows the leg to be push back a little not a lot. For the neck mod, I used a model kit cutter, which is faster than just sanding.

As for the chest & belly, had to sand it down since I dont have a dremel.

Hi Spliff, I used Tamiya Cement, which is primarily used for plastic model kits like Gundam.

Its not very strong and I had to hold the suit in place for awhile before it starts to stick. Its also quite easy to pull out, should you need to re-glue it or do additional mods. Hope it helps

ah yes, i used to use that when I built airplane models. i don't think it'll be good for rubber(as you said it's not that strong a glue)...but if you don't plan on posing it a lot i guess it could work.

Great pics RattleRat! IMHO he looks perfect right out of the box.

I ordered mine from Toys2 also and I haven't heard anything from them yet.

Re: The Dark Knight New Costume PHOTO Thread.

I'm really eager to get mine, but I also feel like I'm lately to the party, there's been so much buzz on this one finally shipping, this thread's been pretty dead the last week or so.

I always thought this costume had the triangles at the cape too. Oh well I guess not. Great pics. I can't wait to have that figure.

That is what I thought so too...Is it movie-accurate without the triangles?

Re: The Dark Knight New Costume PHOTO Thread.

The ones that clip the cape to the cowl on the Begins suit? TDK suit doesn't have that, the cape just flows out of the costume as the figure is. However, and the figure has them, there are triangles on the fronts of the shoulder pads.

Ahhh...its underneath the cape where you connect it to the shoulders on the body suit.
