Damn, if they knocked this figure out of the park I can only imagine how incredible their Batmobile is going to end up looking. Have a feeling it's going to be very hard to resist...
I already PO’d mine from jazzinc. Gotta support the smaller companies Y’know? Their JL batmobile blew me away and I’m expecting the new batmobile to do the same.

I’m positive IA’s batmobile will be stellar, but they already got my money with my 2 premium POs haha.
 
If you zoom the photos up you can clearly see the smaller ones are stitched and not metal (not the zipper itself but the lines going down). The larger ones look stitched as well but also a bit more metallic looking so not sure with those. The figure looks so good I can’t see myself modding anything.
I won't mod mine as well, but there might be some people who just love customizing figures in any way they can. Even if it can't zip mechanically down, the attention to detail is so realistic. Such as work of art.
 
I think having the Bat signal for display with Batman is fine it can be behind him or next to him. I'm definitely having him in his own bigger detolf with it. And another one with Bruce Wayne alone to show the specific scene. Or both together with it in between. But I already went All In guys so don't make me regret my decision. Lol jk

I love Jazzinc's work and have their 66 Batmobile on order, but their 22 has just been looking far too plasticky for my taste. Although I realize it's just a rough proto at this stage.

Funny, I’m in exactly the same position with po’s at IA and Jazzinc (y)

Jazzinc is exactly the type of company that I’m very happy to support. They’re fair, honest, and customer driven. I’m anticipating something awesome from IA for their 2022 batmobile, but I really like that Joost is an incredible engineer and he always strives to exceed expectations, so I have no problem committing early to him. Plus, vehicles are his specialty.

Still, looking forward to seeing what IA offers. It’s great to see good companies driving innovation.
 
My major concern is magnets especially in the hand. The wrist pegs give stability and more range.

Could the hands hold the weight of the accessories?
I wouldn't really say pegs are as stable, HT pegs tend to break easily from to much movement, then they get stuck in the wrists. At least with this idea of a strong magnet inside the wrist it can be posed without it breaking.

Yeah I’ve recently pulled all the broken ones out of hands and tossed them. Goodbye to wrist pegs i say.

Yeah it gets old after a while and hence why I hope InArt continues to use magnets. Especially with seamless wrist it will be way better since it won't require us to force it off the joint rather it can just come off that's why it works for joker.

See, this right here shows why the proportions on the Hot toys are off which gives off a more toyish look.
Hot Toys really need to do better with their proportions.

You can see how high the belt and chestplates sit on the Hot toys. Its way higher.
at 1/6 scale, a mm off can be huge. This happens a lot on their Captain America figures.
I would always end up pushing the pants down lower to lenghten the torso. The problem though is sometimes, due to the pants
tailoring, the crotch area can look like its sagging. So I have to do some trickery in posing.
And you can also tell if you're being nitpicky that the torso looks off based on where the belt is supposed to be in conjuction with the ab armor. But still, I would leave it like that as to me, Im more concerned with the proportions.

If they would like to maintain their status as the top dog, they would do more revolutionary measures to keep their figures more up to date.
Instead, they do a certain standard that they are satisfactory enough with and move on cause they have so many more marvel and star wars figures to pump out instead of fine tuning the figure more to the best standard.
Although the InArt figure looks better overall, I think this comparison suggests HT has the better cowled head. The shape of the cowl itself looks more correct, I think.

I'm hoping the HT and IA heads are interchangeable so I can put the best head on the best body, regardless of how it turns out.
