Re: Medicom Dark Knight Batman - Photo Thread
True, true. And I think that is a major problem. People are saying the Medi figure is leaps and bounds beyond the HT one, but that is based off of pics of customized Medicom figures. They are about equal out of the box I think. They each have their own set of flaws. I guess to a non-customizer it just depends which of those flaws you can live with is the one you'd pick as the best.
I'd have to disagree with this, because while they do in fact both have their flaws, i think ones are less severe than the other in some cases. Really the area that HT most exceeds is its articulation and poseability, but looks wise it isn't as good as the medi, out of the box or otherwise.
And i am a HT fanatic, believe me, but just being honest with both figures in hand, the biggest detriment out of the box for the medi is paint, for the face, making the headsculpt look cartoonish, but the sculpt is still there. The ht's paint is better, but its sculpt is way off, especially when compared to one so good like the medi.
And frankly paint is much easier to fix than a sculpt. So out of the box the medi wins there, even if you dont fix the paint, he still looks more like bale thna the HT. The armor is also more accurate, at first i wasn't taht worried, but after having both i find i like my HT's suit less nad less, as it looks dry and rubbery compared to the sleek look of the medi.
But im not trying to debate, just point out what is clear if you have both in hand. Im not a big medi fan im first to point out their problems, but in this cas,e they did in fact do better, granted they had more time and referencce to do it with.
Yours looks like good width!
