NECA: 1/4 Batman 1989 Michael Keaton figure

[Sephiroth1089]

I'm just on the fence of how many I will be buying. Hopefully its still available in January when I have a bit more cash to buy a second one.

I ordered a total of 6 from Gamestop. The best deal on the web.

Six, huh?

It really does look great in hand. I thought the hot toys pictures did their 1/6 figure justice but this one looks so much better up close and personal

I've seen some complaints about people not knowing how to get the belt clip on. What I did was boil water and soak it for about 30 secs to soften it up and then was able to attach it to the belt.

heres some quick pics of my modded Keaton cowl. easy mod. I just cut up a card about 3 inches inlength and about a 4-5mm in width and folded it. Stuck in the side of the cowl right before the ears.

The cowl looks great now. Just need to stop being lazy and repaint the eyes and touch up the mouth area and lips.

Nice, reminds me when he blows up the chemical plant, and the joker is in a helicopter, with a spotlight scene

I've gotta look for this guy and snag one up!

Has anyone tried removing the mask from the face sculpt to see whats under there?

Pretty sure doing so would require ruining the figure.

If you pull the head off and look from underneath, you can see sculpted ears and hair. Not sure if they're fully sculpted, but NECA really did go the extra mile to make the cowl appear separate from the face/head.

I did pull apart the Adam West HS, and it's basically just a sculpted face plate only. They did paint eyebrows on, even though you can barely see them with the cowl on.

In my illustration class, I show students how to use models and toys as reference for their work. Here's my last demo of the semester using the three qs Batman figures released this year:

Very cool illustrations.

I love the pop art comic style on West, the yellow and black smoke for Keaton (I assume you were inspired by the Axis scene) and the blue, snowy look for Bale.

They're really representative of the Batmans. Do you have all three in your huge display?

Oh yeah.

Axis is my favorite scene in 1989 Bats. Good eyes, sir.

Thanks for the kind words.

Very nice art.

I suck at art.

I got mine in this morning!

He looks so much more impressive in hand. The likeness is spot on for me too. It was the cape spread pose that really sold this to me, and now I have him set up in that pose he really doesn't disappoint one bit! Quick pics:

We got ourselves a flasher here.

 

[BurningRage]

Getting mine tomorrow from Gamestop.

 

[toyingaround]

I am so jealous of that collection. I'm a big fan of the arkham series, but I'll just get the neca arkham bats to represent the series. Although I have always been tempted to start collecting that line.
