InArt - The Batman 1/6th Figure

[Jmek]

Looks amazing, but prices are just ridiculous now. My first Hot Toys figure was £75.00, £390.00 is just bonkers!

Damn didn't expect the signal. Wonder if they'll end up doing the bike too.

Though now I'm convinced HT's Wayne sculpt is better in terms of likeness, the rest I prefer Inart.

@Kit Chen I just placed my order for the deluxe inart batman.

Kit had it up first. I decided to get the standard, batsignal and Batman deluxe from kit. Specfiction took too long

**** it i'm in. went with the standard and Bat signal


Deciding wether or not I keep the Hot Toys figure is a future problem, lol.

Wonder how difficult it would be to attached the HT Wayne sculpt to the InArt body

Well... a lot to digest here.

I believe the InArt Batman looks overall better than the HT in proportions, skin tone, material matching, etc.

Now the one thing I am a bit disappointed with is the Bruce Wayne. The coat doesn't look like the one they teased and the face doesn't look quite right. I really need some close-ups to know for sure.

This is all first gut reaction. I need to review the photos a little more.

Leaning towards the regular Batman. Bruce Wayne is just another figure of a guy wearing suit, which doesn’t interest me much, and then I don’t really see the extra value in going for rooted hair with this type of shorter hair style, personally.

Makes you wonder if HT will try to push theirs ahead of production scheduling to try to get their out first.

I'm still torn. If HT hadn't updated theirs, I think it would be a bit of a no brainer. But like you said, there's not many pics showing off the articulation and no close ups of the cowl with the different expressions. Just little pics of them on the full product/specs pic which is annoying.

Oh absolutely, without the update to the Hot Toys sculpt this wouldn't even be a debate.
But with the update I do think the head sculpt on the HT is superior, slightly.

Damn, I really thought I'd be content with the HT figure but the more I compare with the Inart the better this new one seems. The suit and proportions are right out of the movie while the HT just seems too padded and toyish and has those short looking arms.

And while I might give a slight edge to the HT Pattinson sculpt, when it comes to the masked head I still see a lot more of Pattinson in the Inart version. Plus the Inart skin tone is appropriately pale while the HT heads are far too tanned.

I think a lot of problems with the HT figure are at least partially due to the poor photography, for example the skin tone when taken in a natural light is far paler and closer to Pattinson's complexion than in the promo pics.

Skin tone, likeness asides....Just look at these proportions compared to what InArt have shown... It's really night and day. And I'm more than thankful for that

One issue I do have is that the cape seems way too short. It needs to hang down more in the middle.

 

[GaryPool]

HMMMMMMMM.

At first I was completely underwhelmed. I really don't like that they don't show much of a close-up. It's hard to get a sense of the sculpt. Some of the photos show a rather thick paint it seems, the lips seem way too pink, and then in other photos it seems naturalistic, so I'm going to err on the side of a naturalistic paint app and hope that Queen live up to their reputation and deliver a good paint app. The cape, I'm not liking so much, I want a nice heavy and draping cape, but can't win them all. He also looks slightly anime style with his build.

But overall he looks more impressive as a miniature film model than Hot Toys. So I'm going to go in and order the premium solo, I do think the materials and likeness are clearly better (not night and day, but more obvious than not). May order a sculpted version too.

I still don't have the faith in the studio delivering the quality they're promising. I wasn't blown away by the production pics of Joker that were released recently, the paint apps look quite middle of the road, and the hair doesn't really have the complete detail that they are promising also. But will wait to see it in hand. Rather have a great piece than to not under fear of them coming out poor.

But I'm really hoping these come out great. The photos clearly have an edge over Hot Toys in the realism department, with better offerings in almost every regard. As another person said I'm not overwhelmed, but that's mostly I think also because not a single figure has released yet to back up the clout these guys are getting, but I am really, really hoping that they deliver. If so, then I'll be JND 1/3, INART 1/6, for the time being.

Please deliver INART!

Does anyone have ALL of the official pics that can be put into one post perhaps, por favor? It's a little hard to get a good look at this figure without searching through the thread for the few that have been posted here and there. And from the looks, Queen didn't post all the pics on IG which is the only social I use.

 

[Wor-Gar]

If anyone has hi-res versions of the various premium and standard edition sell-sheets in English could you please post.

 

[davejames]

Toyark is my favorite place for seeing all the large, hi def pics.

 

[nm.ct]

Here you all. This is all in full high-res/original pics from Weibo (Chinese social, so no English product pic)

I already did that, you just missed it

You can zoom in on the product pics. The image quality is quite great
