1/6 Hot Toys MMS349 Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice Armored Batman Collectible Figure

[WarMachine714]

My figure has a big gap on the thigh armor. Any solution to fix this?

 

[SilverStar17]

I recall this being reported as an issue for someone else also awhile back when the figure first got released, so you're not the only one. If I recall, someone did have a solution for it, but I don't remember what it was exactly. Hopefully that same person will state again for you what the solution is, or perhaps someone else will know.

 

[WarMachine714]

Thank you for letting me know. I'll do some searching.

Pull of the leg armor, heat the top and reshape the plastic. It looks like the top black part is too curled

I wonder if you heat it up, move it in some extreme poses and hold it there, will the under suit loosen up?

So I have both this version and the Black Chrome exclusive. I don't see the need to keep both and don't really care if I have the movie accurate version or not. Which would you guys recommend keeping in your collection if you had to choose one?

Well I would personally recommend keeping the regular one because it's the one that's film accurate. However, you stated that's of no importance to you so it's your call in that case as far as your personal taste goes.

I have the BC version but since they are identical other than paint and this thread is much busier I'll try asking in here. For anyone that has had the eyes lit for a sustained period, does the light start to fade after a while? Mine fade to barely nothing after about 10 minutes and don't seem that bright to start with. Trying to figure out if it could be a defective head or I'm doing something wrong when putting the batteries in.

That's pretty normal from my experience. Every figure I have with a light up feature (Iron Man,Ghost Rider,Terminator,Predator and a few others) only stay at full brightness for a short period before fading.

Where is the gap? I would like to check mine as well to see if it has the same issue.

Thanks for the reply, much appreciated That's disappointing, I hate the way they fade on my DX13 to. They look so much better full brightness, wonder why they make them this way.

I would keep the one that I personally like more...in my case the Regular Version.

I decided to go with the boring pose of the suit being empty waiting for Batman to use it.

You see it on the right thigh on my second pic. The tip black piece of the armor is suppose to be next to the thigh instead of leaving space between

I think you just need new batteries. HT uses cheap ones.

Are there any you'd recommend?

Not sure but is this the same problem. If so, mine has it on both sides. [emoji20]

No i will not because i don't trust any of them. But if you must, don't leave them in the figure for too long.

My BC bats has the thigh gap issue to. I hadn't even noticed it or been remotely bothered by it till I looked on here sometimes ignorance is bliss!

What's bothering me slightly more is the armour, especially the chest plates, all seem to be off centre to the left like its lopsided.
