InArt - The Batman 1/6th Figure

[BrooklynWolf X]

Funny, I’m in exactly the same position with po’s at IA and Jazzinc

Jazzinc is exactly the type of company that I’m very happy to support. They’re fair, honest, and customer driven. I’m anticipating something awesome from IA for their 2022 batmobile, but I really like that Joost is an incredible engineer and he always strives to exceed expectations, so I have no problem committing early to him. Plus, vehicles are his specialty.

Still, looking forward to seeing what IA offers. It’s great to see good companies driving innovation.

Yup. Small passionate company doing great things. This Batman license is so spread out, i gotta share the love haha.

Magnets may not be able to hold heavy metal accessories -- or light metal without conflicting attraction.

Fatal attraction

Although the InArt figure looks better overall, I think this comparison suggests HT has the better cowled head. The shape of the cowl itself looks more correct, I think.

I'm hoping the HT and IA heads are interchangeable so I can put the best head on the best body, regardless of how it turns out.

I don't how anyone thinks the HT cowl looks accurate imo. It's definitely bigger then InArt's, Also I don't think they will be interchangeable since most likely the cowl sculpt, and rooted haired Bruce Wayne sculpt is magnetic like The Joker sculpts. I think regardless of the differences of the sculpts or how the figures are it's a good thing to have both HT is the next best option if you don't feel like spending a lot on InArt though the standard version is about the same price wise as the deluxe HT one, Everyone wins in some way.

Can someone explain the logic of asking to show articulation? This is a prototype. Only thing you’ll achieve is seeing how the prototype articulates…

might be because we’re used to see HT doing that with their prototypes photos. at least you’ll get decent pictures of how the articulation of the final products. also this is an action figure so there are people who have this concern and will decide to buy after their concerns are addressed

I really don’t get why people obsesse over articulation. This is realistic figure, and there’s going to be drawbacks. I saw a person in the comments saying they wouldn’t buy the figure if it doesn’t move that much, and in my head people like that should just buy action figures with joins. I don’t get peoples logic it’s pretty frustrating.

Like this company is already using authentic materials from you movie and you expect this figure to move like crazy?? Like man makes no sense.

Also take a look on a lot of spidey hot toys figures. As much as they can pose, overtime it can damage the suit, so many times it’s better to take care of it with a museum pose. Batman is also amazing for that reason since he walks around with that presence.

I personally won’t do crazy pose with my figures but I understand that all of us are different. some people get the enjoyment posing their figures just like posing with peter on youtube. I’m happy enough if it has decent articulation that’s why I’m more into figures than statue. but again to each their own

My major concern is magnets especially in the hand. The wrist pegs give stability and more range.

Could the hands hold the weight of the accessories?

Worst case we slap some blue tac but that is worst case

 

[Hando]

I love Jazzinc's work and have their 66 Batmobile on order, but their 22 has just been looking far too plasticky for my taste. Although I realize it's just a rough proto at this stage.

I always thought the same about the 1/6 vehicles most of them especially from hot toys. They look like giant pieces of black plastic.

 

[Hando]

So with the magnets people are saying they are more restrictive than ball joints with pegs. But I assumed it will be a magnetic ball joint not just flat magnet on magnet action?

Same people complaining are ones who buy hot toys with seamless arms that are basically statues. Look at ahsoka.

No look at the picture of the inart with the flashlight. They are in different leagues.

If you're going to do a large item then it should be the batmobile... or at least the batbike.

The bike is too cute though with it’s little bat ears on the front. Can’t take it seriously lol.

 

[Chopper Face]

Already ordered the All In and now I’m thinking about adding a standard Batman to the fray…
Ditch the HT deluxe deluxe altogether when I eventually get it and go for the all IA display of Masked Batman holding the card and envelope, unmasked Bats without cape holding the cowl and Bruce fiddling with his $100 bill with the Batsignal illuminating the scene from behind.
I’ll sit on this decision for a little while though but, so long as HT continues to just put out D list D+ characters, I’m in no danger of running out of money any time soon.

This....nothing annoys me more than someone posing their figures with crazy poses and then complain about HT's material when the suit deteriorate or gets wrinkled...you know like real clothes...in real life. Articulation is nice but 1/6 is supposed to be realistic it's not freaking SHF.

Especially for characters like Spider-Man, people cry the blues when they have him in signature poses yet it ruins the suit. Plenty of plastic figures made for that, not Hot Toys.

 

[GaryPool]

Give me a realistic suit with as close to the real materials as possible with the slightest articulation and I'm happy. When you have a stoic character like Batman anyway why would you want him anything other than slightly articulated?

And then you see photos of people's figure articulated all over the place with no dynamic to their posturing, so they look stupid anyway. Congratulations, you've got a 1/6 overly articulated figure destroying the material that looks crap, good job.

 

[Luisenigma1]

I mean I personally want full articulation to put him in poses he never really did anything agile or extreme, so I don't mind doing photos but I'll for sure have him in a Museum pose. That shot of him holding cards is great so I definitely don't mind that, but I can imagine InArt making a completely new durable body that moves way better and has Pattinson physique under the suit. One of the annoying things about HT is they use the same type bodies over and over and it never has the muscle or body structure of the actor to me if InArt can do this (which it seems they are) then I can see a lot of potential in their lines. Especially if most of their bodies have magnetic ball pegs, and necks it will be easier to swap out.

Why can't my Spider-Man figure be made of CGI just like the suit in the movie!
