Hot Toys DX09 - BATMAN - Batman (Michael Keaton) - Specs & Pics

[davejames]

With returns bm on preorder its finally time to pick this guy up too. Anything I should know when looking for one, any problems with the figure?

The only real issue I've found is that the rubber suit is so restrictive it's nearly impossible to keep his arms raised in any kind of permanent pose.

I imagine one could probably tighten up the joints, but I haven't read through the thread to see if that's been done or not.

Any quality control issues on this figure?

Yea I wasn't expecting too much dynamic posing from him anyway. I'm just going to have him arms down under the cape anyway, looks great just like that.

Nothing pervasive or widespread.

HT got the perfect suit for this thing. Sure it hinders the articulation (even Keaton's 1:1 costume did so anyway), but the quality is superb. It made the Armor-All fear a myth -- I've been using AA on my spare DX09 body for 3 years now and still no cracks, no flaking, no drying.

I may have to pick up some AA, I haven't used anything on my rubber bodies. Fortunately I haven't had issues with bats. Only my leonidas developed a tear under his arm pit.

This figure can put the rubber horror stories to rest

Does anyone know where I could get the gauntlets for this? Trying to put one together but that seems to be the only piece missing on eBay that I need.

Just picked this up for 360 with shipper MIB, pretty sure it was new and only opened for inspection. Is that a pretty good deal or did I over pay?

 

[parrasmaniac]

I think it's OK.

I may be wrong.

As long as you are ok paying that much, then yes.

If you really wanted it then it's a good pick up. Getting this brand new is a big plus+, I would suggest getting tony meis custom came for your bat if you don't like the stock one.

 

[dw316]

I think you could've gotten it cheaper but like everyone else said, if YOU are happy with that price, then yes.

Hi everyone, thanks for all the postings, after 3 years of watching the figure in display in a local store (in Mexico) I could afford it, now that I have it, part of my life is complete. Downsides...left eye is not moving, I will venture into opening PERS and try to fix it (if possible), I'm posting some pics of how it looks now.

 

[dw316]

Haha, I see the cross-eye. Figure looks awesome, nice collection Are you going to save up for the Batmobile next?

 

[BATW1NG]

I open the PERS and here you have some pictures, hope they help somebody to figure out what to do if they have trouble. Mine looks like it could be solved by some super glue for the small 2 parts, but I need to take the eyes all the way (I don't want to, I ordered I new one, when I get it, I'll probably try to fix it), for now; some pictures of DX09 PERS.
