absolute Batman from Hot Toys!! https://toynewsi.com/273-61163

Not necessarily, but he did recently post some leaks that have now been confirmed by some of the more usual sources. Alex Chen also just posted the same info, so definitely lends it some credibility now.

So this guy just revealed the first 2+ waves of Mattel product starting in July. Line will be called DC Universe and be in the 6.5” scale. Apparently, will be similar to their current WWE offerings, with 2-3 lines with differing levels of articulation, detail, and accessories. The really high...

I know this is going to sound odd coming from the guy that had to buy 3 just to get a good one, but it really is a bad-ass figure.

Well, I guess 3rd time’s the charm. Got another one and this one has no QC issues. Not sure if it makes any difference but this is the only one I got directly from PopMart, the other 2 were from eBay.

Well, I’m either super unlucky or these have lousy QC. I had bought a second one to keep in the box, but decided to open it since the first one had issues. Exact same problem with this one. What a bummer, because it’s otherwise a great figure….

Got mine yesterday. No butterfly joint, as far as I can tell. As far as QC, mine had issues also. They used the same hip/thigh joint on both sides, so the right leg doesn’t have full ROM. Otherwise, it really is a great figure, cape is amazing.

Update on the Hush Batman, looks awesome, can’t wait for this one!

Sounds like no DC reveals to me.

I’m assuming Hush 2 is based on the Loeb/Lee sequel, but would be nice if he took another pass @ the original design with a wired cape and a better buck. One can dream…

I don’t know whether to praise or curse Todd, but thanks to the half assed nature of some of his figures, I have learned how to wire capes, add thigh articulation, add more ab crunch, and so on. I just finished doing all of those mods to the new Batman Inc. figure and the rebirth figure...

Got Rebirth Batman in from the McF store and Batman Inc. from eBay today. Rebirth is all reuse, of course, but cape is actually quite nice, but no wire. I think I can do the same mod as the NML Bats from earlier this year. Inc. has a new head sculpt that I quite like, though it’s back to...

I read bleeding cool religiously, and I generally like their editorial point of view. They also have really good sources within the industry, but in my experience, they are not very plugged in on the toy scene.

Not good with it, but I think this time they at least made that clear from the get-go (unlike NML Batman).
