NECA: 1/4 Batman 1989 Michael Keaton figure

[Psycho]

Took some pics of my 1/4 with an much better lighting set up... I am very pleased with the results....

Perfect shots, fantastic lighting. Well done.


You should take a double AA battery and wedge it between his ears for a week or two though. Left (or it's right) is a tad crooked.

AA Battery is a tad too big would heating it up fix it?

It should be a little too big where the positive end is. Gently wedge it in there to the upper middle part of the ears (or right in the middle where it begins to curve). It'll be fine, it won't hurt it.


One of mine was bent to hell when I first got it and I took a double AA, wedged it in there and that did the trick. Perfectly straight now and held itself in place. I thought about heating it up, but didn't want to risk it drooping.

OK will do that thanks for the help.

Had the day off, so I decided to strip/repaint an extra NECA Keaton head sculpt I had lying around to see how he'd look without the raccoon eyes. Apart from the cowl hair, I think the sculpt has a lot of potential. Can't be worse than the HT Keaton head sculpt, right?

Very nice

 

[DiFabio]

I wonder why they sculpted that hair.

Had to be to fit better in the cowl

I mean like the strands and stuff.

Very nice

Thanks man! I'm probably gonna redo the raccoon eyes and then mod the cowl so the neck is thicker. If I actually ever get around to it, I'll post pics when it's done.

Not sure why NECA even sculpted the hair at all, or the ears for that matter. It may just be wishful thinking, but I hope it means they plan to recycle the sculpt for the ripped cowl/Returns bats or some other variation of the figure.

I kinda regret not getting him in this scale now that I have the quarter-scale Reeves.

Very classy 1/4 DC comics display.

Looks awesome buddy.

Very nice display buddy. NECA's 1/4 DC figures lately surely have stepped up in quality, they look great even next to the high-end HT and Enterbays.
