Yeah i thought the exact same thing, when you think about it, there are similarities, including the mob meeting, or the final scene rooftop clash

Yes they did, I posted it a while back:
I guess since they were only circulating in the HK market at the time, thus the notice was in chinese.

I can read a bit of chinese. And it seems most of the HK folks post at toy hunters more than at HT's page.
I think terence tam is doing a pretty good job, just trying to help people in HK and outside to be aware of whats goin on, like you said MF, US news
Hes suggesting that HT should just acknowledge their mistake, and recall all the existing DX and give us a problem free batman DX; like what HT did with connor a while ago:

In this pic (which someone from another board requested a shot with the OC Batman), you can see I saw able to get the cape a bit more tidy coming out of the armor by tucking the cloth in with the clip as I pushed it into the slot:

I'm really curious to see the DX cape in hand, I had no issues getting the v1 cape to lay how I wanted, I wonder how different the DX is from v1.

From what I see (and I could be wrong, I'm no tailor), the differences from V1 to DX are:
1) Longer, of course, and:
2) Whereas the V1 was one type of fabric, like a thin hanky, the DX is the thin hanky material on the inside and a slight less porous material outside, pretty much just like the OC cape.

Might put my v1 cape on the DX then if I don't like the DX cape.

size wise, I prefer the bigger DX cape. But material wise, its crap. Its too think and stiff, compared to the v1 cape.

As I mentioned previously, the elastic has to be cut and the shoulder pads glued to the shoulders to allow for posing.
Was the same on my V1, but also partially down to the tightness of the shoulder joints.
Damn, that's some strong elastic then. Figures with HT, you want velcro that holds on for dear life, you get lousy magic tape that won't hold at all, you want a fairly loose elastic fixture on a figure's armor, and it's stronger than need be

Another update.... It appears to really get bad in this facebook link page if you have it. Hopefully it will be a full recall there is just no way around it.

It's a disgusting material and texture what Hot Toys uses. As someone else said it makes it look like a $20 toy.

I have my preorder in abcspress ..I'm eager to get my hands on my DX
I'm sure will be a great figure...
but I'm disappointed.
the proportions of the prototype. the silhouette .. the shape of the legs ... shoulders
The prototype is perfect ...
Photos from the DX ... do not deceive me .. we see that the dress has stunning detail!
I see that is a great figure ...I do not like .. that .. hottoys put pictures of the prototype on its website.because the figure they sell is different....previously had no pictures ... ok! but now I have real ...
somehow I feel cheated by hottoys
before I had a problem with iron man's chest
I was disappointed hottoys

that was me.
Btw, I noticed that you have infrigno's cape, have you tried it on the DX yet mate?
I might wanna get one from him, since it might be a while before crow started selling his.

I don't have the DX yet but it will be the first thing I swap out when I get it. Hopefully once all these fault problems are rectified. I have 1 TDK long waiting to get used of lforigno's and 2 buddylee optional, 1 short and long. Hot Toys capes are atrocious. I assume the DX still hasn't got the V cut at the back?...

Nope, none at all. The V1 had 'some cut' didn't it?

Nope, it perfectly traces the round collar of the suit. Ironically, the OC cape, which shouldn't have a v cut, does.

It's no big deal or anything but I always do wonder why they miss out little details like this considering it could have been so easily done while making the longer material. Just slit a V and stitch.
This was mainly the reason why I went the custom cape route. Obviously as well as it being softer. It just doesn't look nice from the back. Almost looks like anorak Batman with the material around the neck rather then the proper V.
My OC Batman cape never had a V cut. It's just a huge loop. Just a bigger curve of TDK that always peeks out a bit of the back at times. Showing a bit of the back of the shoulder or such. Where as lforigno's fixes that. It was annoying having to use a toothpick at times to poke the Hot Toys cape up below the cowl.

here's pics of my sonar head which has the same problem as reported earlier:
In addition to a messed up sonar head - my PERs head also has a problem, there is extra bits sticking out one side:
Apart from those issues however (for which I will surely get replacements), the figure is superb - here's mine with my BuddyLee cape:
