While I agree with most of what you said, lets not forget when the Joker arrives. He talks to Rachel in his "Batman voice" and she knows damn well who she is.

True, but lets also not forget that Bruce had been Batman for over a year at that point. If you do something long enough it becomes habit. I don't think he has control over it (even though he's the king of control), and once he puts on the batsuit he just Batman. At that point Bruce Wayne is gone, and lets face it Batman is not all there in the head. He's a little nuts, I mean one would have to be to dress like a bat and try to rid a huge city like Gotham of crime.

That's the only scene that bugs me.

Also the only time that Rachel and Batman are alone in that scene is after they land on the cab and he has only one short line. I mean before the Joker shows up Bruce is talking to everyone in the room. It wouldn't make sense for him to not use his Batman voice.

Of course she knows who he is. She's known since the end of batman begins

Epic!!! This is now so nuch closer to how his eyes were most of the time throughout the movie if not always

True, but lets also not forget that Bruce had been Batman for over a year at that point. If you do something long enough it becomes habit. I don't think he has control over it (even though he's the king of control), and once he puts on the batsuit he just Batman. At that point Bruce Wayne is gone, and lets face it Batman is not all there in the head. He's a little nuts, I mean one would have to be to dress like a bat and try to rid a huge city like Gotham of crime.

When acting out of the norm much like when one lies it is always best to stick with a set of basic rules throughout so not reveal the truth and stay consistent. It is quite perceivable that he simply switches to the Batman mode ones his suit is on. Also in todays tech who is to say that he is not being video taped etc and one would have to keep that act up at anytime the suit is on and he is even near being exposed publicly. In the end I can accept both the voice in the movie as well as the fun they poke at him..

God, that looks like s***, but I love sharing my poses and pics, my b´day and a new cam can´t come soon enough.

OH did you get bit my the Maglor bug? But yeah a good camera will help and just take this hobby to the next level... just be careful and aware that that hobby can get out of hand just as fast as this

It´s actually a variant of Mag´s pose, but he see where you´re tryin´z get there, Jeffo.

I made it a little more voluminous, you know?
So it gives someone the impression it´s in mid movement and trying to hide the throw.

Endo, I think the "Maglor bug" Geil speaks of is the compulsive need to pose/photograph/post pics of your Batman.

Re: Hot Toys - MMS DX 02 - TDK- BATMAN full spec and pics

Did you sculpt both the top and bottom eye lid?

I think what bugs me is that it looks like he's only squinting from the bottom up, so to speak.



Also, did you ad a line of paint where the lips meet?

That's what happens when you squint, the bottom lids lift slightly and the brow furrows. The top lids don't really move at all, and the amount of clay I added is not much thicker then a strand of hair. If I had done the top and bottom lids his eyes would be half closed not squinting.

Yes, I painted between the lips to give more depth.

That´s for sure.


That´s why I actually buy Hot Toys and not statues, you know?
Statue-quality figures, but fully poseable everytime you need the feel to do so, right?
I just love that pieces.
Cheers

I had DX02 on preorder with BBTS, but canceled when the reports of leaking came out. Unfortunately, I never kept up with it after that and didn't realize they issued a corrected DC Direct batch until after they were sold out everywhere. I don't regret canceling my initial order... $175 is way too much for a figure with a quality problem... but I wish I had followed up with it after that.

I can't justify $300 on one figure. This would be my first Hot Toys figure, so I'm not familiar with how they do things. Is there any possibility this figure will ever be reissued? Or am I just going to have to hope they do a new DX version after Batman 3 comes out?

You shouldn't worry too much then. There are numerous reports that the corrected DC Direct batch leaks as well. Maybe not at the abs but at the biceps and in other areas of the suit.

True that. The fix they did for DX02 is more of a band-aid than anything else.
