Thanks - got an eye for quality 1/6 customs :rotfl

But yeah that confirms that the head is too small. I have the same shirt and tie and it looks perfect with the Imaresqd1 head

I'm sure Kato has addressed that the shirt was specifically make for Imaresqd1's HS. However, while I've got C.B HS as John Connor, I think the size is pretty much about the same though.

Well yes he did tailor the shirt neck for the size of the Imaresqd1 sculpt but to be honest the HT sculpt looks small even on the Batman body which he comes with.. so I don't think there's any doubt it is undersized at least in my mind

That said i'll be sure to post plenty of comparison pics when I get mine in hand.

Head's not too small, the bat body is too big. And using custom clothes tailored to a fat custom head to call HT's head small is lame and Maglorish. :lol

Yeah batbody is probably a bit too big and lol @ the maglorish hahaha

Fair enough but show me a pic with this head on a TT and any regular suit and then we can judge!

If sideshow sell these in the US, will they be available through retailers like BBTS?

Well, I tends to agree that batbody was made a little too big. :lol

Anyway, you make the judge.

Sorry for the poor quality pix from my damn phone. :slap

When other pics of him are posted in non-custom clothes, you'll see what I'm talking about. Him looking like Schwarzenegger in the Begins suit should be clue enough though. :lol

Looks perfectly in scale to me. :dunno

Looks allright on the nude body but can't really tell without a suit on him

WTF does the suit matter? You're just reaching now, Maglor. :tap

If the clothing is in scale to the body, the head will be fine. I know common sense ain't that common, but at least try to use it. :lol

Exactly. Usually a head should look slightly oversized on a nude TT, since layers of clothes (that aren't 1:6 scale) will make the body bigger at the end, which the headsize has to compensate for.

And if it looked bigger on the TTA, you jokers would be going, "SEE! RIGHT THERE! TOO BIG! WE WERE RIGHT! HA!" :cuckoo:

I want to buy this already, he is a must on my shelf.

He will look bad ass.

Thicker and more intimidating BB suit > skinny and wimpy TDK suit.

I'm not even an advocate for the sculpt being too small (the head looks great on the DX Batman, like a posted a couple of pages ago). On the new body it looks too small though, and I agree with you that it's partly because the body is too big. However, that doesn't mean that the head is perfectly sized.
What I posted is just an observation I've made over the years. It's the same with long necks. On a nude body a neck can look too long, but after layers of clothes it looks perfect, since that's the right context it should be viewed in.

I'll give you that, but still, that's not a case of the head being too small. It means the clothes are too bulky. But I still stand by my previous post that if the figure looked bobbleheaded, you guys would be ranting that the head was too fat.
