Re: Hot Toys - MMS DX 02 - TDK- BATMAN full spec and pics
I've got the Takara Batman, the Hot Toys OC Batman, and the Hot Toys DX Batman.
Assuming you don't use the Takara Bruce head unmasked, I think it looks GREAT next to the Hot Toys figures. Scale-wise, material-wise, and detail-wise, they all fit right in with each other. Especially if you're using the harness, since that helps cover up how skinny his abs are in comparison to the OC Batman.
You can use the Hot Toys Bruce head on the Takara body, but the head won't fit snug. That is, it will sit on the peg, but you don't get a whole lot of poseability, and you have to be careful when you pick it up, otherwise it'll just fall right off. Other than that, it's fine once you set it how you want and leave it alone.
What I do is use the Takara Bruce head, but with the ninja mask. I bought a more accurate 1/6 scale ski-mask than the stock Takara ski-mask, and it looks great. I can use the Takara Bruce head because you can't actually see the poor detailing/paint of the sculpt under the mask. This lets me have a more secure, poseable head and it also lets me use the Hot Toys Bruce head for another kitbashed figure.
All in all, if you've got both Takara and Hot Toys Batman, I think the ski-mask/harness look is awesome, since it lets you get another variant figure in your display, rather than two nearly-identical Batmans.
