karamazov80 Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 Ball joints tend to create a greater gap around the crotch, which is also problematic. I guess there's no perfect solution if you want articulation on plastic toys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellpop Posted October 15, 2014 Author Share Posted October 15, 2014 I don't see why they have the hole drilled all the way through the thigh. It's basically the same artic that DCUC had, and they never had the pin visible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karamazov80 Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 Yeah, I was thinking the pin would only need to go through the back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterPL Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 I guess I'm the only one who appreciates hip nipples. Is that an alternate cape for Batman or did they just change it for greater range of motion? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellpop Posted October 16, 2014 Author Share Posted October 16, 2014 Alternate cape. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zexion_Armando Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 HOpefully its just production faults and not actual stuff. I'll at least wait for a hands on look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nessex Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 Harley's upper legs don't seem to have any obvious pins like the Catwoman figure at did.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samwise Gamgee Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 Well...neither did Catwoman's prototype image: http://i.toynewsi.com/g/generated/DC%20Comic%20Toys/2014_Toy_Fair/bm_animated_cw_af_1__scaled_600.jpgI get the feeling that they just Photoshop the holes out for advertising. : / Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minor touch up is one thing, but this is a pretty major change Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mnemosis Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 I don't know where I fall on these... I WAS just going to get Freeze, but now I kind of want Batman and Two Face. If the alt Batman cape were a completely or almost completely draped-over-the-front sculpt, I'd be in without question Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samwise Gamgee Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 Batman is out!!! He was released today and looks fantastic! The day has come! http://toynewsi.com/news.php?catid=10&itemid=23718 I went to my local shop and saw him! It was hard to pass, but I have them ordered online.

Twisted Two-Face Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 Have him on hold at my comic shop. I'll be grabbing him this weekend. Shame Harvey isn't out yet either, but JESUS the amount of accessories comes with is insane. Two full plastic trays for all the stuff. Insane for DCC.

stack32 Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 I guess they didn't get those peg holes in the hips fixed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glantern Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 I picked up Batman from my comicbook store. Mine has a bit of bleed over around the nose, but other than that this figure is fantastic. Perhaps the greatest thing about him is that he's the first DCC figure that I know of not to use clear plastic for the joints. It sure makes taking off the head to swap the capes easier!

karamazov80 Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 Apparently the ankle pegs are very fragile on this guy, so take care if you're buying! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellpop Posted November 20, 2014 Author Share Posted November 20, 2014 Just Batman but not the rest of the wave? How strange. He looks beautiful though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glantern Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 I was a bit surprised to only see Batman. At first I thought maybe the other just sold through, but there was like a whole case of Batmen, so that seemed unlikely. One weird thing, at least for me, was that the back of the package doesn't list any of the other figures in the series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
battlecat Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 Catwoman's out next Wednesday, I guess they're staggering them for some reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellpop Posted November 20, 2014 Author Share Posted November 20, 2014 Probably just to stick it to those of us that ordered full sets from online retailers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twisted Two-Face Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 Not DCC, but NECA just announced this that ships on 12/9. Currently available for pre-order on ebay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glantern Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 As cool as that is, is it weird that I still kinda want the video game colored one more? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UK Collector Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 As cool as that is, is it weird that I still kinda want the video game colored one more? I think the computer game one is amazing too! Not to derail too much, but has anyone picked up the Lil Gotham figures? I've never read the books but love the designs, and the figures looks great.

hellpop Posted November 21, 2014 Author Share Posted November 21, 2014 I like the book, but the figures just looks weird to me. I just don't think they translate well to 3-D. Plus, the articulation looks spotty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
