HT The Dark Knight New Costume PHOTO Thread.

Hey gang, thinking of picking one of these up. Did this version have the "leaking" issue that the DX did?

nope.

 

[Darthrazz]

nope.

Thanks!

One more question, as far as the costumes go, there wasn't much difference to the DX correct?

There's actually a LOT of difference, the armour has been completely redone head to toe, and its proportions are a LOT more accurate. The TDK New Suit version looked very buff overall and looked bigger than OC Batman, while the DX looks slim as he is supposed to, and the armour is far more detailed.

Apart from all that, the headsculpt is far superior on the DX, but IMO the medicom has the DX beat with its headsculpt (and there's other areas where the Medi is better than the DX but that's a whole other discussion).

Anyway, in short, if you've got a great deal on the TDK New Suit version (under $100), and don't care that much for screen accuracy, then go for it. If you can afford closer to $200, i'm sure you'll find a seller of the DX (non leaky version) eventually.

Agree with everything.

Not that I recall, no. I had one and sold it. Dont remember it leaking at all.

 

[lerath666]

two questions.

1, hows the articulation/ posability on this guy with the rubber suit?

2. is 75$ shipped a good enough deal on him?

1. it's definitely better then on the dx, as it's using a more soft rubber. So some poses are possible. But still it's not like a figure without rubber, so not EVERY pose is possible.

2. 75$? For sure. If you still don't like the headsculpt of the v1, you can easily buy the DX headsculpt at ebay. That's almost 300$ cheaper now as the DX
And 100$ cheaper then at the time, when I've bought my v1. So I would say, go for it!

 

[Gipetto0812]

wow! I'd buy a complete V1 TDK Bats for only $75! great price right there!

If it comes with the Bruce Wayne head, then that's a hell of a deal.

 

[Seditionary]

thanks thrustmaster, you are the man.

 

[lerath666]

I THINK it's missing the hands, but i'm not 100% on that.

 

[Grand Admiral Thrawn]

Excellent pictures!

Just swapped heads on mine.

I already have it with the wayne´s head.

it's a beautiful figure.

DX hands can be had for reasonable prices on ebay.

 

[2ndname]

Most Hot Toys for $75 bucks is a steal. I couldn't find any when I was looking for v1 and was not patient enough to wait. Spent $110 for a loose TDK that's missing a Wayne head. $75 is a very good deal.

 

[Seditionary]

whered you find it for that?

 

[lerath666]

friend of mine is clearing out his 1/6th stuff. He's giving me the pick of it before he tosses it up in the forsale section.

I'm getting two-face and TDK bats for 75$ each.

so 150 for the pair.
