Please do! I found 2 more of these guys at my local TRU today in CT, for anyone wondering. Thinking about doing something else with them custom-wise. Not sure yet.

Great pics and poses, DiFabio.

They're really making me want to dust this guy off and give him a new pose, haha. It's amazing how great this figure is, considering how small it is.

 

[DiFabio]

Thanks. That's exactly what I did. Got one of the extra ones from my office desk and just started playing around with it. Still enamored with this thing 2 years later. Love the cowl sculpt especially. NECA really nailed the features and that rough to smooth texturing on the mask.

I posted in the wanted section I want this guy badly I had the chance to get one at MSRP at TRU but misplaced my debit card and the store was an hour away from my house. went back as soon as I could and he was gone and he is not even order-able on TRU.com so if anybody has one or sees one I want him badly but not badly enough to pay the dang scalper prices.

 

[Otomofan]

They seriously wouldn't hold it at the counter for you for an hour? That's ridiculous.

 

[Animal Mother.]

I don't think he went back an hour later but when in doubt, always redneck layaway!

Yep that's what I did, the moment I found those at my stores I stashed a few just in case if anyone needed one. I have three stores where I stashed about three of them. I helped out Dave mcfly with his so stashing a few does help when your in a bind.

and I love him but now my brother wants one so if you (BatGuardian) any other one has an extra one or knows where to find one I would really appreciate it be glad to pay for it no problem .

and replied thanks again Bat!

Just a quick heads-up, my local Toys R Us had two of these guys yesterday.

 

[Optimus Prime]

Mine did as well, picked one up.

 

[Dave McFly]

boy this figure is pretty cool I love how articulated he is I have him in the arms up in a ready to kick some ass (how he looked when the ninja fighting henchmen jumped over the garbage in the alley fight).

^Nice!


I'm in here today because I just received this figure from Difabio. I guess you can lurk on the forum during a ban? Assuming that's the case I want to give a huge thanks to him for this. He sent me what appears to be a perfect sample of the figure, no warping or ugly paint areas, he packaged it extremely well. I'll use a hair-dryer on the joints later just on the offchance. Looking forward to getting home and seeing how this looks next to the other 80s/90s icons in the scale.

You guys have been right, this figure is a little gem! I can't believe the cowl is a separate piece even on this 7 inch figure.

So thanks again Fabs, I hope you'll be back to us next month, I heard it was a 30 dayer.

Yeah it's an awesome figure now only if Mezco would stop pissinga round and release thier 1/12 collective 1989 Batman and Batmobile....

Took some more pictures enjoy guys:

That looks fantastic, great shots.

At home now where I've been able to have a proper look at this. It's a thoroughly impressive figure, none of this will be news to you guys of course but as I haven't kept up with this thread (because I was not intending to buy this) I've been largely unaware.

I knew that the cowl was separate from the underlying head on the 1:4 but I didn't think that'd be the case with the 7 inch - and the underlying Keaton head is independently articulated. How cool is that. If you move the face inside the cowl it behaves much like how the real thing would have.

I love that you can put this in an action pose and not have to worry about stressing rubber - his fighting stance from the alley scene is therefore a must. I'm even happy with the cape - it may not have the right look to the material but it seems to blend well regardless and I'm happy enough with the drape too.

The articulation doesn't intrude on the aesthetics in any way and is pretty effective - that mid-torso joint hidden behind the muscle-cover of the torso is genius, there's just enough flexibility there to have him hunched during a fight or leaning back to look up at Joker's helicopter.

I think my only criticism is he's light on accessories.


So damn you Difabio, damn you to hell. You better not have started me on something here.
