InArt - The Batman 1/6th Figure

[Victοr]

That's why I display none of my figures. No need to measure anything, make space, whatever. Just shove it all in closets, libraries and drawers. One day I'll set up my perfect display...

As for a TB2, if they've greenlit it now, I'm assuming it'll be coming out around 2024. Hm, that's shaping up to be a packed year too, same as 2025. I'm hoping he'll keep the collar, but get a more classic suit. I honestly just really hate the "arrows" on the gauntlets.

Ill pass on the signal. I'll just add Premium BW and call it a day. So All-In for the humanoids only.

Also since some said it made no sense here is an image of the suit after the GSG battle. His armor took that buckshot so we know it's durable but I imagine had it been a slug that probably would had gone through. View attachment 596035

I'm sold on the Inart over the HT, so they can have my money.

That said, I'd love to see a Drifter Batman with his cafe racer, for me that was the most visually interesting thing that separates this Batman from the rest. I absolutely love that all of his clothing are basically stuff you can buy in real life there without having a Wayne Foundation budget.

BD Bats and Drifter Bruce 2-pack is next.

Those darts honestly never made any sense to me being there. That's usually a Green Arrow thing not Batman. Hopefully with the new suit those are no longer present and they are normal all black gauntlets with actual fin blades on the sides. Although I liked the straps on them created the fins/blades, I honestly prefer the traditional ones more.

 

[Wor-Gar]

He never used those things, right? What are they supposed to be?

 

[dominishin]

Functionally having blades on the gauntlets makes more sense too. The chest symbol thing is too gimmicky and awkward in use, as shown in the movie itself.

Either throwing darts that he uses to knock people out with or a longer hook for his grapple guns.

So there's no "Visual Dictionary" on The Batman yet? No one knows what these things are?

On the behind the scenes stuff one of the people in costume design said they where throwing darts. How much of that is true idk.

 

[Wor-Gar]

He should have thrown at least one. Plenty of times he needed something like that.

Someone could just club his hand and set them all off.

 

[lordnastrond]

I thought they were replacement arrows for his grappling gun?
From what I remember his grapples stay lodged in what he fires them at (which is more realistic) and then he "reloads" the grapple when he wants to use it.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Those long arrows fit into that little James West gun?

In the Art Of book they are described as "Bo-shuriken" or throwing sticks, which was a weapon used by samurai.

OK, that's what I wanted to know. The Art books always know.

 

[lordnastrond]

Cool - well I was way off it seems!

 

[lordnastrond]

Didn't know the art book was out - I love a good art book.
Would you recommend picking it up?

 

[davejames]

I'm sure it must have been something that he used in an early draft of the script, that either got removed or cut out of the final movie. And by that point it was too late to change the suit design.

Totally. I haven't had a chance to read through it yet, but there's lots of great stuff in there. And it's not just concept art but photos of actual props and costumes as well, which is the kind of art book I always prefer.

Amazing... they wittled the movie down to a crisp 3 hours yet somehow found the room to cut "Batman throwing shurikens at evildoers"... somehow that got cut.
