Everything is a head sculpt, of a head sculpt, of a head sculpt.

I doubt this will happen... but I really hope Hot Toys surprises us with a Arrow and Flash license from the CW tv series. Would be awesome to get 1/6th figures of those two. But, as I said, I doubt it.

Speaking of TV stuff. I would be floored if they showed off Netflix Daredevil and Kingpin.

I wish they would try a Black Widow figure with sculpted hair. They pull it off really well on Rey and Leia.

I'd be interested to see that as well.

Oh man.... I would be like this

DD has become one of my favorite comic book characters. Currently reading the Bendis/Maleev run. Would love to have any 1/6th figure from the show or comics. I just thought in that press release a while back for DD merchandise only SSC had the license and not Hot Toys.

 

[Natalie Rushman]

Yeah, Hot Toys wasn't mentioned in that release.

Anybody know how soon until we see actual photos of the displays and stuff? Maybe tomorrow?

Body shaming bully behavior. Tear others down so you feel better about your self.

You are wrong. Look at the number of direct shots at the man. Which would never have started without the shots at the figure. And even if you are not able to see it, calling the figure fat is still body shaming, in the same way people use Barbie as an example of body shaming women. Whatever your "intentions" are pointless.

There are photos of the Man, not the plastic, eating a hamburger and calling him fat. There are pictures of him doing other things calling the man not the plastic fat. There are comments that the direct scripted the batman to be fat, so that's why the actor is.

Even if it was just about the figure..and it's clearly not..it still says that if you don't have a six pack that shows through your layers of clothing and you are bigger you are fat. It's a shame tactic.

There's this thing called 'humour', you should look into it. I'm sure poor Ben Affleck will survive a light-hearted ribbing on an internet forum by crying into a pillow made of money surrounded by beautiful, nubile women. The assertion that figure is wildly inaccurate and looks fat as opposed to thickly-muscled is also correct.

Real Batfleck is powerfully-built at about a realistic 7.25 heads tall. All the proportions and insertions of muscle groups into bone, placement of fleshy masses line up with the artistic ideal, albeit at a realistic human height giving him a stocky look.

Hot Toys Batfleck contains a myriad of anatomical inaccuracies such as

- wide hips
- incorrectly-placed serratus
- shoulders and arms too thin
- upper legs too thick, short
- chest too long, incorrectly shaped
- no latissimus dorsi
- incorrect proportions of torso

All of which add up to a fat-looking physique.

I also find it rich that you would accuse other people of being bullies when your stock response to anyone levelling any degree of criticism at Hot Toys, no matter how valid, is to dogpile them with walls of text asserting your dubious authority on the subject.

OMG I love how far you guys take some of this stuff. It's laughable.

Literally five minutes work with Photoshop and a Wacom tablet. It's what I do for a living anyway.

The fact that you spent any time at all is what I find amusing. Do we all really care whether this character looks fat or not? Are we really going down this road?

I would be into the idea of the CW series characters; at least Arrow, Flash and Supergirl themselves... But with movie versions of at least the first two on the horizon I doubt HT would risk diluting their own customer base. We are more likely (though its pretty much unlikely) to see figures from the Marvel shows seeming they are at least in the same universe as the movies so its not unreasonable to have the Agents of SHIELD, Jessica Jones or Daredevil at least meet any of the Avengers, even if off screen.

Because the figure costs $250 and is coming from a company that built its reputation on screen-accurate reproductions of movie characters.

Sometimes I think all you people who respond to inaccurately proportioned figures with these complex diagrams full of red lines are just completely making it up and drawing all the red lines randomly. For all I know all those red lines equal out to a 1/4 scale Popeye.

I'm lousy at reading maps too.

For the $250 or so this is going to cost, we care.

I bet your body isn't perfect either.

That being said, Batfleck would be considered the "Heroic" and not "Normal."

But then that would simply come down to buy or don't buy. I have no problems with civil discussions, but to start throwing in diagrams and pie charts seems a bit much.

 

[meanstreak]

I am actually relieved when HT mucks up a figure one way or the other... it means one less purchase for me

They tend to fix these things before release though
