These things are wretched. Wretched I tell you. I am amazed these continue to be made. Horrible.

You know I was staring in shock at this piece and I started thinking is their a way to fix it? I'm thinking loose the speedos, belt & boots and replacing them with better fitting ones. The color is totally wrong (powder blue). Make it batman-blue (that's a new color) and make the cape longer. The neck on the cowl is freaking huge, reduce that. And finally make the cowl more form-fitting. I'm assuming the body is Ok as I don't own any Tonner Dollies.

Anybody have good Photoshop skills that wants to tackle this. If you can make it look half way decent, it should look interesting.

The challenge has been made. Ready. Set. Go. And may god help you!

That is amazing.
How does anybody produce something like that, let alone buy it?
That reaches new heights of shamelessness...

I'll give it a shot.

This particular rendition of Batman is not intended to be THE Batman, all Grrr and Arghh and f'd-up. It's an interpretation of the character as a Tonner Doll Company "Dressed Character Figure."

Now, I'm not familiar enough with Tonner's product line to make an informed argument as to whether or not their Batman figure meets the criteria of what constitutes a successful Tonner Character Figure, but I do know it's from that criteria that one must judge it.

I'm sure Tonner collectors wonder why someone would spend hundreds of dollars on Patient Zero, regarding it only as an ugly toy, not as a well-executed and highly sought after example of a zombie that appeals to collectors of the horror genre.
