In case you've been looking for him,
the Dark Knight isn't in Gotham City right now. He's in my house.
Sideshow Collectibles saw the Bat-Signal and shipped Hot Toy'squarter scale Batman figure to me. He's living the good life now
because all he has to do is look amazing. There aren't any bad guys
to fight here. As per usual with Hot Toys, the quality is over the
top from the carefully sculpted cowls to the surprisingly soft cape
to sharp batarangs.
Packaging: Batman was packaged with the
utmost of care - every small accessory had its place. The figure,
cowls, hands, and utility belt were nestled in soft foam. Underneath
the foam section I found the figure's base, sculpts representing a
few of Batman's rogues gallery, and plenty of weapons to make sure
Batman can take care of any villains he encounters.
One of my favorite things about Hot
Toys' packaging that was especially on display here was that every
nook and cranny was made for a specific piece. It makes it much
simpler to put everything back where it belongs - like the opposite
of trying to refold a map. I like knowing I have a proper place to store all the pieces when they're not in use.
Sculpt/likeness/paint: This figure
couldn't be more Batman if it tried. The head sculpt looks a
startling amount like Christian Bale's Bruce Wayne. There are
wrinkles, and the skin texture is realistic. The cowls are equally
impressive. One aspect that blew me away and fascinated me is that
you can adjust the eye movement by moving rods inside the mask! And
this a weird thing to focus on, but the eye lids were perfectly done.

The chin portions of the cowls are
interchangeable. All you have to do is use a tool that comes with the
figure to pop the chins out - it's simple and fun to give Batman
different expressions. The lips and teeth are spot on.

And the various cowls attach to a base
with magnets. It makes it incredibly easy to change them up, and I like that method better than popping the head on and off.
Clothes/suit: The Hot Toys Batman has
the softest cape in the world. I'd like to enlarge and borrow it. It
snaps into place on Batman's shoulders with ease, as does the plastic
flight pack. The suit is sturdy (fabric covered in armor) but also pliable and moves easily
when you pose the figure. The different textures match what you see
on screen, and they catch the light differently to make Batman extra
pretty.
The utility belt fits snugly around
Batman's waist. It has a little stretch to it, but it doesn't slip once
you snap it into place.
Accessories: As I've mentioned before,
the accessories are always my favorite part of a Hot Toysto dive into and the ones
that came with Batman didn't disappoint. They include several pairs
of gloved hands, a grapnel gun with bullets, a sticky bomb with
several moving parts, a light-up EMP rifle, an itty bitty mine, three
batarangs, a nicely painted figure stand that mimics a scene from the
film, an ultrasonic cutter, a radiation detector, and the masks of
Bane, Joker, and the Scarecrow. WHEW. Going through all the extras
was like opening boxes within boxes and continuing to find surprises.
Everything that went with the utility belt clipped on with ease.
Anything that had moving parts - like the sticky bomb - moved
fluidly.
The technical details: Height - 18.5
inches, head sculpted by Kojun and Kim Yong Kyum, head painted by
JC.HONG, and head art directed by Kojun. The body has over 32 points
of articulation.
If you're a Bat-fan, this collectible is sure to please you. You can order Batman Quarter Scale Figure by Hot Toys from Sideshow Collectibles for $464.99.
See more photos of the figure at my Flickr page.
Full disclosure: Batman was provided by Sideshow Collectibles for review purposes. This did not affect my review of the product.
Sideshow's craftsmanship is evident in pretty much every toy they craft. But honestly, these are just a little TOO realistic looking for my tastes. I will stick to my Kenner 70's and 80's Star Wars figures. :)
ReplyDeleteI can understand that! :)
DeleteAnother great review. I didn't realize how big this figure was going to be.
ReplyDeleteThank you! And yes, it's definitely a bigger piece than I was expecting too!
