Looks good there but is still way too thick for my liking and I hate the fact that it does not have a V cut at the back

its thickness is what stops it from hanging naturally! i also wondered about the cross eyes but if they they are both alligned in the same position when facing forward then im assuming their ok!?

I have mixed feelings about lforigno's cape right now. I am not dising him, because I know a lot of people love his cape, and it is just a matter of personal taste.

The shape is dramatically different than the Hot Toys cape:

I don't know which is more accurate (and that has never been a priority for me). The lforigno definitely hangs more naturally but the HT cape is longer (the way I like to to drape it anyway...) Also the fact that the HT cape is thicker helps to build up Bat's shoulders and minimize the appearance of a giraffe neck.

The thicker cape also makes it easier for Bat's to hold on to it.

Again, like this:

I have to agree with you about that Maglor. I have lforigno's cape and the Hot Toys cape and while I do like the material his capes are made of I also see the pros of the Hot Toys cape you talked about. I have 3 DX Batman's as soon my my two pre-orders get here from my LCS, but only 2 of lforigno's capes. So I think I may keep 2 of the Batmans with the stock capes. Just one question, how did you put the capes in so flush that you don't see the pegs?? Did you take the pegs out?

Actually the clips are the other thing I really like about the Hot Toys cape. I like that I know it's clipped in there really solid rather than just stuffed into the suit.

It's just a matter of using the clips properly and not being afraid to force them in. Once you get used to it you can take the cape on and off with the clips really fast and easy.

Guys the Hot Toys cape is really growing on me...

Toldja. :D Gorgeous pics. Yes, the HT Cape IS more accurate if you look at the gliding scenes in TDK. It is larger and holds that shape. They may have had a number of different Capes in the Film, usually a Walking cape will be different than a flying Cape, but this is Batman after all, and I think I'd rather have the HT Cape length and cut.

And if you tuck in the clips properly it should lay flat like the HT Prod pics and Maglor's shot. It's how mine looks too.

Batman has no idea what he's gotten himself into...

looking at this reminds me why I prefer the custom capes. It is just too thick look like hanging naturally as it was in the movie. The moment you throw in the custom cape it just looks so much more realistic in close up shots. Of cause with lots of fuzzing the factory cape could look realistic too but naturally hanging should always look better than trying to imitate the coat hanging naturally


Was thinking about this. The need to futz and tweak the cape is part of the fun! :lecture

Especially when you consider that there aren't a whole lot of long term display pose possibilities with this figure.

WOW, what a huge difference in cape size, the bigger one is the way to go regardless how thick, just too bad it has to be so thick though! :horror

Oh, and that pose is awesome, congrats and thanks for posting the photo :rock

One quick plug for lforigno: As you can see in the pic, his cuts are perfect. Also, he delivers lightning fast! :)
 
Re: Hot Toys - MMS DX 02 - TDK- BATMAN full spec and pics

I remember how horrible the OC Batman's cape looked under those stupid little triangle connectors on his chest....:lol

This looks so much more clean and bad ass!

Nice work with the cape there pal :rock

Unfortunately not the laughing one, but yes, I have one of Adam's sculpts in the mail headed my way as we speak. I'm almost peeing myself with excitement.
