Mine is “preparing to ship” as well as of this morning. I don’t have my hopes for the middle of this, though. Technically they have 10 days to disappoint me.

So what's your guys take on pers? DO you think they look good or do you prefer painted eyes?

Not a fan of it
I would love to say that painted eyes are the way to go but some figures really benefit from those pers. My dx19 it's still on the way but for example in the 1/4 dark knight I'm just never 100% happy with the eyes

Both of my orders I made last month have now
Been shipped, original December 2020 pre order is still down as expected to ship

Got this DX12 custom while waiting for the DX19.
Can't go wrong with more Batman.

I feel the same about the QS001. Still trying to find a position for the eyes where he looks less startled.

The DX19 doesn't seem to have that issue in pics. Hopefully that's confirmed when I finally get the figure in hand.

Can anyone confirm if the DX19 Bale headsculpt fits on the peg on the Batman Begins figure? And if it scales okay.

Given that they're essentially re-releasing that same fig with that new headsculpt (just with longer ankle pegs I guess), then I think it should fit as far as scale goes, or at least as well as it scales with DX12 and Armory, which is decent.

The trick with getting the posable eyes to look great in a neutral look is to get the bottom of the iris to just barely touch the bottom eye lid, pose them ever so slightly closer to walleye than to cross eyed and they will look great.

Agreed. You have to go a little walleyed to make up for how the cowl/brow tends to create a cross eyed look.

Thanks for this! I'll try it on my QS001 later.

Looks like DHL lost my DX19 from Sideshow. Been 2 weeks and they can't locate it.

Looks like it'll be Fedex next time. (Canada)

I don't know yet, DHL wanted time to locate it. I sent them an email today to get an update and will contact Sideshow after I get a response.

Normally the shipper reimburses the seller and they send a replacement. We'll see.

Just got him in today. Officially he is in my top 5 best figures so far in my collection, now I just need to wait for HT Robert Pattison Batman LOL

How does the EMP Rifle compare to the DX’s 12’s? Did they expand the LED’s?

The status of my shipment has been like this for 3 days, what can it be?

Maybe they ran out of packing tape?

I can't compare it the the DX12, but I can sayt he EMP rifle kind of sucks. There's a super, blindingly bright LED that shines out of a single hole at the top of the front panel. It's basically a small flashlight. The light effect doesn't really diffuse through the whole front of the weapon like it ought to.
