Keaton Batman- Custom

[bwayne]

Re: Keaton Batman

I thought Les was done on the Joker head run?

He might offer it again. He did a Hicks head once. There was enough demand that he did another run. he might be a little burned out on the Joker right now, but in a few months he might think differently.

Re: Keaton Batman

While we're waiting for v.4 I thought I'd post this picture of some rough-and-ready Keaton & Nicholson kitbashes I did, using 90's toys. Batman is a Kenner Bruce Wayne plus hood on a Toy Biz body, with the left arm replaced by a Thunderwhip Batman arm; The Joker is a Kenner Dark Knight collection Joker head (which I personally thought had a great sculpt!) and a repainted 'Batman & Robin' animated series 'machine gun' Joker. I loved the Dark Knight collection vehicles but it never managed the kind of Batman and Joker figures I wanted to see - these are more like what I would have wanted.

Shawn's user name is SovereignStudio zeelhar. If you haven't already gotten ahold of him you could send him a pm. And if your thinking about changing your mind, don't, it's an awesome custom figure.

Re: Keaton Batman

Re: Keaton Batman

well, just checked some old posts, looks like guyver1 got on the list at around p. 145 in march. that's waaaaaaaaay after me and plasmid (around december i think). so hopefully we're both going to be seeing email notifications soon too. if not, something is very wrong with that list.

That is great news! Now post some pics.

Do you know if he made any other changes to it since V3?

Re: Keaton Batman

Photos will follow later - I have just lent my camera to a friend

I ordered one with the non rubber head, which was the actual version when I placed the order (because I think this version has more detail in the sculpt)
The figure has rubber boots - so the ankles can be bend-posed which is cool.
The legs seems to be less bulky - looks more in proportion
Gloves and chest plate are also from rubber.
So it is kind a combination of the updated and the old version.

I was loosing interest (long wait and people who came in later on the list received theirs before me), but all I can say is to hang on , the figure is well worth it.
Trust me.

Re: Keaton Batman

You sound like you got a very unique version. We'll call it the "Amarcord Special Edition" version.

Re: Keaton Batman

Glad to hear you got it and are happy amarcord... I knew you'd dig him. And it sounds like you got the best of both worlds figure

Re: Keaton Batman

Anyone hear of a Japanese statue of the Keaton Batman, around 12 inches high,
made by a company called Xfacto?

It's been a real Cocopalooza year for you, hasn't it?

Better than most "paloozas" I've experienced, that's for sure.

I've gotten three of the best 12'' renditions of two of the characters from one of my favorite films ever and they keep rolling in.

Bob is only a few tweaks away and Bruce Wayne should be here by June, Les is working on a Napier sculpt and after that who knows. I might make Alfred. How about Lawrence the Goon or even another Joker version. Mime Joker!

1989 Batman is definitely my element and I've enjoyed this 1:6 Burton trip a lot so far.
It makes it even better being able to enjoy it with people like you pjam and Gboy, Les, Wor-Gar, DekDave(may he rest in Freak's forum peace)and all the others that have shown an interest in Shawn's Batman and other '89 Batman related figures.
