Just got the set in! I didn't take them out fully but look pretty good. The bat symbol seems slightly off but I'll see if I can move the suit around a little bit to make it work.
 
Swapped out the body for a seamless and got a custom cape and trunks made for mine. May do the same for Robin if I can find the right body but it’s tricky because he’s smaller and leaner.

Here’s Batman with the Hot Toys head/faceplate:

low or off center ?

A little off center, and those lines you can see on the symbol? Won't wipe off. I've never had or seen the Hot Toys in person, but this symbol is also like 1mm thick. It looks pretty bad overall, at a distance it'd be fine but looking up close it looks odd and from the side it completely sticks out.

My other little issue is to me his eyes are looking up. Might just be different painters, seen some better heads. I'm still totally happy given the price though.

Not bad! You might be able to center the bat symbol by repositioning the fabric on the chest. I believe the eyes on mine are like that as well.

you should ask for a replacement !
 
Got mine today. I haven’t looked at Robin yet, but the blue in Batman’s suit (cape, cowl, trunks, bracers, boots) is a touch more vibrant, and his suit is a cooler grey - more like the HT version. The bat symbol is a little smaller and placed higher up on his chest, and his trunks are nice and snug this time. Mine seems to have a couple of QC issues though that weren’t present on the first version. For instance there are a couple scuff marks on the head and belt buckle, and the belt doesn’t stay latched together so I had to super glue it. Others have already mentioned the position of his pupils being higher and mine has that as well. Everything else looks the same to me.
 
Any freaks get their new 66 Bat and Robin in? How does it compare with the first release?
Just received it, the Bat emblem is higher on the chest at a slight angle. Batman's pants seem in proportion with no baggy issues.
Robin looks to have more of a tan than shows up in this image.

Not sure why KG offered a cheaper without the box option, as they've just removed the inner tray and stuck it in a brown shipper box. When it obvious it would have fitted in the shipper🤷‍♂️. It can't have been that heavy cardboard?

Got my set brand new for $135, it's the V1 version with the loose briefs so I'll figure out how to mod it. The emblem also has glue stains on the sides so I have no idea if this can be fixed.

I also added ankle extenders to Batman as I feel the body is too short.

Even with the flaws a great score. Still tempted although I own the HT release.

Question.

Are Saturn and Mars the same group of folks or are they two separate entities?
