My two cents? I like it. A lot. The suit looks amazing, I’m pleased with the likeness on both headsculpts, the stubble is phenomenal, and I’m confident the rooting will look great with some zhuzhing. I see where people feel the head’s too small, but in looking at the photos that were posted of actual Battinson, I feel like, if it is small, it ain’t by much. Keeping in mind, too, that, out of the suit, Pattinson didn’t bulk up much; a lot of that bulk we see, I feel, is just the suit. I think that’s half the reason they made sure to deck him out in bulky clothing, between the drifter look, the layered funeral outfit, and his overly baggy casual wear/PJs he wore in Wayne Tower.
I really want to see the cowled head sculpt and I really want to see their Batsignal. I ordered the all-in and I’m very excited to see what they deliver. I started out with the anti-Hot Toys schadenfreude, but, at this point? I’m just happy to see an alternative. It’s not accidental that Pattinson turned into one of HT’s best efforts and I think, to overlook the impact of competition as to why, is disingenuous at best. He looked great and came with a bunch of awesome accessories and, for the price, is a genuinely solid, fantastic figure. I’m still really hoping, between that unmasked cowl, that one of the surprises is the wrapped hands, though. Overall? After putting him out of my mind for a long *** time, I’m getting excited
I’m happy for the people getting their HT Pattinson’s and he seems to be a jam packed release with a lot of bang for your buck, and I’m really happy with what I’ve seen of IA’s. Thus far, the competition seems to be nothing but a good thing for all of us.
