Re: The Dark Knight New Costume PHOTO Thread.

Nice shots man!

I can now actually see some change!

Re: The Dark Knight New Costume PHOTO Thread.

Nice shots, i-zombie! Congrats...

Chest is definitely flatter in Wave 2, the chest piece change does make a difference.. but I have to say both batches look superb. Still, glad I'm getting 2nd wave... I think the chest armor just sits flatter in the second wave...

Hi peeps,

Mine just came in today, and he's got the flatter chest. Some quick snaps:

Either I'm lucky and have a tweaked one, or the difference is very subtle because I really don't see much difference between mine and those images.

I guess they did change them. I suppose this softens the blow of having to wait until December to receive mine.

Neither do I. I guess they just want to believe it anyway.

I can definitely see the difference, saw it in those 1st xl shops pics... the chest pieces in Wave 2 sit flatter maybe because they wrap tighter to the side of the chest with that chest piece mod change...

Anyway, it protrudes less and looks flatter.

I need either bold differences is an in hand side by side comparison, because I've seen little in photos that suggests much difference that couldn't be explained by camera distortions or light variations.

Well if these images are the better figure then I guess I lucked out because what I see looks like mine.

Dude, if you don't see a difference then be happy

Re: The Dark Knight New Costume PHOTO Thread.

HT would NOT have changed production chest pieces had they not tested it out on the figures first... they modded the figure for a reason, and it is an improvement, a tweak from the 1 wave. Again, both versions look awesome..

Those are real nice. From Toy World obviously.

Almost got it!

It's a bird... it's a plane...

boo!

Oh my what big hands you have!

Aspirin

I have the power!

DRAGO!!!!!!!!!!!

Yo Adrian, I did it!!

Thats almost how I have my cape, it's pretty cool. Thin straight and narrow. Yet sadly mine has quite a few creases in it. Need to iron it or lay something heavy and flat on it. ¬_¬

Very cool pose.

Re: The Dark Knight New Costume PHOTO Thread.

I'm glad the ^^^^ing chest argument is settled. I still think both versions look fine. Very subtle change.

Sadly not in the other thread. Seems too many feel the need they have to prove it.

MaulFan, did you manage to pull off any of the Hot Toys shots and those other promo photoshoots?

Zombie, what is that other fig in the shot? Sorry new to this and that other one looks cool as hell, im guessing its from an anime film or something similar. Who makes it?

Love you last shot also, ill try this pose out and may even display him like that if its sturdy with my BR Joker behind him (when he comes in Jan).


Thanks

It is Raiden from Metal Gear Solid 4.

Well, here's the thing, TDK came in with a few other figures so my attention was a bit divided at first. I've also been clearing a small head cold off for the last couple weeks, I haven't taken a figure photo in a long time. All this suit talk has got me back in TDK spirit and I will soon be revisiting this figure when I get back on the photo horse to ride again after falling off a bit. As for replicating HT stuff, I did this one early on to try to match that walking shot everyone liked.

Like Dally said, it's Raiden from MGS4 by medicom. Also a rubber suit fig, but not nearly as poseable as bats. I wouldn't recommend keeping Batman in that crouched position, might ruin the legs in the long run, and the torso gets pretty scrunched up too. Also, it only really looks good from that angle

Hope to see something like your Takara stuff, Maul. That was so wicked!

Re: The Dark Knight New Costume PHOTO Thread.



I agree Maulfan, I've recently looked at your snapshot collection, great stuff!
