You vultures I can't find that jacket anywhere

Black ops toys had some of them parted out but they went really quick. I've seen some of the full sets on eBay recently for under $100. I've seen some auctions on eBay with just the jacket but at the price it was going for it I would've just bought the whole set and sell the rest.

I didn't look at them all but at a quick glance this one seems to be the cheapest. I just searched mc toys jacket. That gun would go good with a Rick Grimes too if your picking up any of the figures or bashing one.

anyone else find bane tough to get set up? maybe i'm just dim but i wasnt up to the task today of fitting the vest over the shirt and kind of gave up half way thru haha. really cool figure tho. only gripe is the mask profile. but it's minor. and fixable, for sure.

Actually what I've found bother me more than the mask profile is the neck profile. It really does look skinny from the side.

And yes, I nearly killed myself getting the vest back on. Especially since I accidentally unstrapped everything and then had to put everything back.

What was more annoying was that I found I disliked the shirted look, and went through all that for nothing. I still have one strap that I couldn't get through the buckle, cuz the head's too large for the hole.

Still an amazing figure when you manage to set it all up though, and then you'll marvel at the complexity of the vest itself.

I bought that black shirt awhile back for my Bane (when it was posted here) and the guy sent me the wrong one...He sent me the short sleeved one I was looking forward to seeing it on him too

I found the vest really easy to put on and off. Only problem is you have to undo the strings and loosen them when putting the jumper on and then tighten them when you take the jumper off.

Could've been that or there wasn't enough in stock. You'll most likely be the lucky one and get what you paid for Yeah, luckily they were cheap.

@thewalker: yeah just got the remaining parts yesterday; dont have the full set, just a final battle version. havent managed to set everything up yet so i wont have pics yet--also i have some weathering and stuff to do. but i'll get around to it eventually.

@silasya77: yeah the neck profile could be thicker but it's not a huge deal for me. i had thought i'd be really disappointed with the leanness of the body and had planned to swap him onto a ttm20 but have changed my mind.
i also have unstrapped the vest a bunch and will have to redo a lot of it. that said, the vest is really cool and once set up will be sweet.

costume-wise, it's the pants i have the most issue with. aside from the slim cut, i havent quite figured out what the zippers up the sides afford. and i am not sure how i feel about the rigidity of the calf area on the pants.
have thought to customize a pair of pants and boots i found--though i might stick with the stock boots for a while. we'll see. all in all, this is a cool release.

I wouldn't get my hopes up on getting your orders just yet. One of the excuses SS gave the folks in the DX12 thread about Bats being held up in customs was b/c it said "dark knight rises" on the box which these do too. So unless this is with that shipment of DX12 figures you guys might end up having to wait just a little bit longer
