Re: Hot Toys – MMS183 - The Dark Knight Rises: Bane Collectible Figure

Still don't have Bane, but the spare parts I ordered have arrived. Got the DX Indy right fist to fit into Bane's glove and it looks great, though I'll admit the only downside with it is how you lose the "worn" look and sculptural details that come with Bane's original closed fist (TLDR: the sculpt on Indy's hand looks soft in comparison to Bane's beastly fist). So as a secondary option, I've started modding the other non-hole glove I got so I can make a pseudo-gloved hand for the existing fist that Bane comes with. It's quick and easy, not to mention it could potentially provide as a decent alternative if you can't find the Indy hands. I'm currently doing some touch-ups on it now so I'm nearly there and I'll post some photos once I'm done.

In my country people gone crazy for Bane for they didn't pre order before and now he's sold out everywhere lol. I am glad I ordered this bad *** just for the sake of completist. He turned out great. Nice!!

Looks good man, nice angle and pose. Looks the most realistic i've seen in that pose.

I don't get mine until May :(

As promised, I finished it!
Be a little easy on me as this is only a personal mod I thought that could work as a decent alternative to the whole Bane fist+glove issue.

Using a spare closed fist from Bane, I fit his hand into a spare glove (the one without a hole), then using the gloved Indy fist as a guide/reference, I cut out the excess parts. Used some superglue to manipulate the shape of the wristguard's edges from the inside and voila!

The fist is held by the hardened edges nice and tight and while I can't vouch for how well it'd work with the actual figure, for a simple mod I think it doesn't look too bad. Not only does it fake the look quite well, you also get to keep the details on Bane's hand (not to mention it looks more bulky than the glove's fit on the DX Indy fist).

Very nice man! What did you use to harden the edges?

EDIT: Nvm, I see it says superglue. :slap

Pics are looking solid. I'd like to see a couple more vest-only as well. :)
 
Love it! Just futz the left side of his jacket and its spot on. :lol

Yeh I've tryed but hard to do with the material of the coat, but I did not fasten that side so his collar looks like the pic, such a great figure, i will try different pants aswell, anyone know the pants elvis used ?

ronri- looks perfect man. Nice job. I plan to do the same but glue it to the fist.

Thanks! I was gonna glue it together as well but later decided to keep them separate for now just to play it safe since I don't mind the convenience of having an easy access at the wrist joint. I'll just wait until I get the figure, by then I'll make my judgement whether or not to leave it as it is (admittedly the hand doesn't easily fall out despite not being glued together).

I never preordered this guy. I was waiting for production photos. Just found them today. Woah. Gonna preorder from SSC tonight. When does Catwoman come out? Now all I need is a HT Ra's al Ghul and I'll call it quits on HT forever.

So now Conga line Bane, did he have Arnie arms and regular body?
 
Re: Hot Toys – MMS183 - The Dark Knight Rises: Bane Collectible Figure

Yeah, I guess so. let's see, the figure left HK on 4 Feb, arrived here in Australia on 6th and finally delivered yesterday :) I think, Im gonna get arnie's body to makes it look more muscular.

I ordered it on the 29th of January. It was sent out on the 30th, got to NYC at 2/6 and I'm still waiting. :impatient::dunno
 
Re: Hot Toys – MMS183 - The Dark Knight Rises: Bane Collectible Figure

Anyone knows if you can pull out the arms from the elbow joint?? You know like the T-800 MMS, so you can exchange the endoskeleton arm.

I tried but with no succes. i don't know if it can't be done, or I just have to pull harder. But I'm afraid I might broke the elbow joint.


Thanks!!
