InArt - The Batman 1/6th Figure

[Hologram AI]

Capes are usually made with a constant radius from the neck, this isn’t. This seems more like an ellipse. Either the sides are shorter or the back is longer.
Hard edge? It’s just folded out of the way emphasizing the difference in length.

Capes can be any amount of a circle, Battinson looks like most of a full circle, where when the ‘sides’ are draped down in front of him instead of folded over his shoulder the bottom of the cape is uniform length.

Insightful, thanks! I was trying to wrap my head around on how they were achieving such a drastic difference in length appearance if done on a single half circle pattern a usual cape would have. The shots I posted above has it looking like the sides were cut drastically shorter with there being such a sharp fold on his back. I guess folding it a certain way would give it that drastic length difference look that it has?

Looks like the Bat Signal is sold out with Sanctum Toys now.

Looks like I just missed it then. My own fault!

Still hope to snag one eventually. Kit and other retailers might have some left after pre-orders are shipped.

I would likely never pose The Batman in costume without his cowl, so the small size of the Wayne 'raccoon' head in truly inconsequential to me... but it should be scaled correctly.

It may very well be those wide shoulders exacerbated by the shoulder guards.

He says that the metal arrows/darts are non-removable,

but here around 3:20 they definitely are. What a cool feature!

Yeah, I did see someone remove a dart in one of the reviews and thought it was a nice feature. Gave me an idea for a cool pose.

Yes. I kept editing my reply so there’s more info in. I think with how he zips up the cape into a wingsuit it must be able to drape all around him and have his arms stretched out so could be an entire circle when laid flat.

With the offset neck hole, folding back over his shoulder would make it look different lengths.

Edit:
In which case, the radius of the cape could be uniform, but with the neck off centre, like this drawing I just did.

The flying bats on the box

HT is ****** lol

My favorite part of the review:

“This chunky thingy”

The costume has crazy levels of detail it’s insane.

 

[vspectra]

I'm not seeing the head being too small at all in some of those review complaints.

 

[Cap'n Cook]

Are there no wires at the top of the cape I wonder? Or can people really not be ****** to manipulate/futz it.

Yeah it being an almost complete circle is interesting. Would explain the excess fabric they must have had for it to drape and fold so sharply on his back.

I’m guessing most companies didn’t think about this either since I have yet to see any cape from both figure or statue accomplish the movie look. I hope Jaxon does when he makes his custom cape.

The only thing Inart needs to change are the rolling eyes with the rooted hair.

You have to be 100% crazy to risk ruining the hair just to repose the eyes.

It is insane how you can split and ruin the hair completely on the first try opening the head.

**** that!

For anyone else who ordered the Hot Toys version through PopCultcha, they allow balance transfers to other items in lieu of cash refunds.

Might be neat to get the Hot Toys Batcycle for $300 off by transferring your Hot Toys Battinson order to it. I’m currently debating that.

Seems like the latter, tbh. And I can't say I'm any better about it. That's why I hope including two capes a la Superman, one wired and one draped, will become the new standard. Wired capes are excellent for posing, but I get so frustrated trying to get them to look natural in a non-action pose.
