Re: The Dark Knight New Costume PHOTO Thread.
Those are incredible photos. I can look at 1,000 pics of this figure, and I still find it hard to believe that it's not a promo photo of Bale in the suit.
Please keep the pics coming.

Re: The Dark Knight New Costume PHOTO Thread.
i bet HT is going to release another improved version of this with the next Batman movie. I bet that one will be completely perfect like the original costume they released this year. You guys think Nolan will make a new suit or keep this one? What about for the Tumbler or Batpod? I dont think hell pull a bat plane or boat though.

The real question should be; 'will Nolan make a third Batman film?'

Hopefully he comes back and completes his trilogy!! After that reboot the franchise. Keep Nolan's Batman as a standalone trilogy.
Oh yeah the mod on the belly makes all the difference in the world. You really should mod it Maulfan.

Those two win it for me. Hot Toys has nailed it!
Thats the best cape shots I've seen yet. Perfection!
Come on ActionHQ. This is killing me so much!
Is that the bed cover?
That one almost reminds me of the Hot Toys promo!
That last one is killer with the cape flying. Truly stunning.
I like how you futzed with the cape on the shoulders like the DCD version:

Re: The Dark Knight New Costume PHOTO Thread.
Thanks, as I was taking photos, I got to thinking about how I'd love to photograph him on the pod and it occurred to me that I could use cropping of my shot to shoot the figure by himself and still get the angles and such I'd want to of Batman on the pod without it. I could get other shots with the pod, but at least the ones I care about most can be done without it. If the pod were like $150, I'd get it in a heartbeat, but at it's price, and knowing myself as a collector, when I was done having my photo fun with it, I'd eventually regret it, thankfully I've got a work around. It will anger me if the pod includes a wired cape though, it'd be a great feature with or without the pod and I'd consider it another non-collector-friendly move by Hot Toys.
As for the mod supporters, sorry to let you down but I will not be doing it. I admire those brave enough to do it, and I agree the little bit of extra material at the waist isn't the greatest looking thing, but I really haven't dug the way he looks after a lot of the mods I've seen and I'm not going to risk damaging a pricey figure that means a lot to me for one slight modification when 90% of the figure looks fantastic and suits my every need as a collector.
Of all my Batman 1/6 figures, (Takara BB, HT BB, Keaton Custom, HT TDK) this is my favorite. The poseability of this figure is fantastic. If they'd achieved this poseability with their Begins figure, I'd probably vote that more, but this figure is just a lot of fun. I wish the colors on the suit were a bit less accurrate and more like the proto pictures, kinda dug all that, but all in all, still very happy with what Hot Toys rolled out. It made me very happy I could replicate the theatrical poster with this figure, it's probably one of my all-time favorite movie poster images, just something about it, which is why I have it hanging in my room, and it felt good to be able to very easily plop the figure into it. I set the figure up for the shot and with minimal futzing, I happened to stick him right in a perfect spot that my room light fell right where it needed to, one of the easiest times I've ever had trying to matching lighting on a figure to lighting from a photo.

Re: The Dark Knight New Costume PHOTO Thread.
The colour of the belt looks stunning as well the way the light hits it. A kind of bronze look. It does look metal even for a piece of plastic/rubber material.
Can you do this pose?
I currently have my DCD like this. Can't get his fist up close enough though. Keeps popping back :/
I'll probably pose mine like the above or:
Or if on the stand, this standing pose really caught my eye.
I really love the middle look.

I plan on replicating a lot of the promotional images.
I really wish the figure we got was colored like this, they look stunning in the proto shots.

maulfan, did your figure come with the beer belly or did you do something to it because my begins figure's stomach has a dent in it.

Re: The Dark Knight New Costume PHOTO Thread.
My figure is exactly how it came from the factory, except for tucking the cape clips a bit further in to flatten them.
The film suit actually is a bit puffy in the same spot.

Thanks for the pics, MaulFan. I was in the same boat as you regarding modding, but since I'm going to end up with two (I'd forgotten I pre-ordered with Toys2 until I received the shipping notice), I'm gonna see what I can do with it. Still gonna be hair raising, though.
