It doesnt look bad...but you can still see those leg joints...

Judging by these closeups, they are treating her armor like an Iron Man armor with cutouts to allow for articulation and not a single suit of plastic. You can see the cutout right under her breasts. I am guessing the hip joint works similar to the “panties” design of the plastic Iron Man (4,6 or 7). That will mean articulation should be pretty good, but they will try to hide all the seams. My 2 cents...

I think you're right. It was either that or have a baggy crotch or one with zero articulation
and even then it wouldn't look as good as this

She looks good but for me, not $220 or $235 whatever crazy price they are asking these days good. You can even see a joint right above her belt. While this is a solid effort, i dont buy HT figures for action figure articulation. I think ill just wait for a catwoman reveal.

Didn’t Arkham Batman have the same joints in the hips as this?
I think it looks good. Need to see more detailed photos but so far I’m sold.

I have no Arkham HT figures, and while I think this is good and I can work her into the TDK Batman that I have, I think I will pass and wait for the AK Catwoman instead. I need to keep my eye on the prize...

I like everything but the hair...

That's part of the reason I like them to make AK Catwoman more...and if the Arkham HT figures are doing well (which they are), AK Catwoman will get made...

Beautiful figure. I wasn't a huge fan of the Batgirl DLC, but I definitely need this to go next to AK Bats.
Nah, he had soft goods pants.

Catwoman would be my most wanted. Only thing that would prevent me from getting is if Hot Toys decided to go with the cheap action figure visible joints on it. No way I am paying $200 plus for that. Hopefully Hot Toys come to their senses and abandon this exposed joints experiment by then.

Might be in the minority but I really like that bit of extra articulation in the hips. As great as AK Batman is, I wish he could pull off more dynamic poses. This however looks closer to Iron Man figure territory in terms of gymnastic ability. If the eventual announcement photos show this one in some flexible poses, it’ll be a definite get despite the Barbie hair.

That’s right. I was thinking of Arkham city where he had separated rubber over the legs but you could still see the joint in the crotch area.

The AK Catwoman suit design doesn’t lend itself to an “Iron Man” style cutouts as her suit is similar to a Black Widow suit. On top of that, her suit has no belt, so if they do make her, her design should be closer to the design of The Wasp.

Love that pose!
Not being a fan of the armoured AK look the AC figure is still the Batman I plan to display with the rest of the Arkham line.
