I think statue collectors believe that they are collecting "works of art".

Those who do - and there are plenty on this board - are deluded. Dollies or statues, if it's mass produced figures of comic book or movie characters it generally equates to cheesy, Peter Pan syndrome knick knacks. At least dolly collectors in general don't take themselves too seriously. 40 year-olds collecting polystone statues of Hulk are "art collectors"? :lol :rotfl:lol
 
It still shows the best part of this figure, which is the torso and cowl. The boots looks so awful that I cant display that figure without covering them.

And it's different than a statue because I chose that pose, not some sculptor. So if it "looks good" as you say, why not display it that way? :dunno

Also, what Bale Batman statue looks remotely as good?

:exactly:

In general, toy/action figure collectors appreciate pose-able figures because it reminds them of their childhood. Nothing wrong with that. I totally admit it and am not in denial. :)
 
Just put the DX12 belt on. Didn't think of the colour difference with the harness before buying...whoops...LOL. It actually makes qute the difference. really like the new belt.

Nice. Thinking about putting that belt on my TF but I have him in his Bats mode. I just need a fixed ankle to go with my CREG gauntlets, elvis face and the DX belt for this guy to be exactly what I want him to be. Finally.

Is the belt clipped as intended or did you have to do some kind of modification?
 
Found a relatively elegant solution to the size of the DX12 belt:

I just removed the pointless grapple gun clip, widened the holes on the remaining part and clipped it together.
