Ha ha, thanks for bolding that for me bud.
I should have done that or added the "in my humble opinion" to make an opinion.
Being a collector for many years now, You do get jaded.
Dont get me wrong, of course, its always supercool getting new figures, and always feels like Christmas...but I'm talking about that REALLY REALLY BIG christmas present that you had when you were a kid. Like the "getting that videogame system you've been begging for christmas feeling".
That's what I got when I opened up the box on this figure.
And I even just received Civil War Captain America two weeks before getting this figure, so you would think that the excitement would have simmered down a bit after just receiving a figure. But when I opened up the box and found out how bad ass this figure is, I had a hard time containing my excitement.
To finally see a Frank Miller Dark Knight Returns interpretation of the suit on screen...and Hot Toys nailing the figure, it felt like that first Hot Toys figure again.
I'd like to think I have a pretty good collection, I think this one takes the cake for the best figure for me.
As I said...Figure of the decade for me...uhm...in my humble opinion.
I also think that excitement is enhanced when it's one of our personal favorite characters.

No mods. Straight out of the box, with just futzing.
Figure of the decade for me.
I'm usually a modder, and that almost every single figure I have, have some form of mods.
But this beast is almost perfect for me.
Always love your toy photography, Remy

Ok, I have this figure on preorder from Bbts and I'm starting to get worried. I've noticed that other online vendors and local comic book shops have received their shipments and I have yet to receive a e-mail telling me that my order will be coming soon like some other bbts customers have. I know that Sideshow under ordered their stock and that's where bbts gets theirs from. I'm thinking Sideshow filled as many orders as they could and tried to cover as many wait lists as they could and then sent bbts a tiny, limited number just to cover a small portion of what they owed them to placate them. I'm probably being paranoid but it's starting to get old waiting for bbts to fill my order.

Very nice dude!
And not to worry about what anybody else says, if it's your figure of the decade then more power to you!!

Just an impromptu iPhone image of him as he currently looks in my display. The cowl doesn't cover the logo on mine in the least. However, what I do have an issue with is futzing with is the cape on his left shoulder to get it to stay as flat as possible against his shoulder. I have his head turned that direction so the cowl causes it to sort of push up a bit. He looks perfect for me right out of the box though.

Yay my replacement comes in tomorrow. Hope this one is fine.
Weird how they can give you a brand new boxed replacement and it's still waitlisted and people are still also waitlisted

I'm guessing they hold a bit of them in case of problems.

Thanks man.
With the cape being long, what I did was tuck the bottom of the cape underneath the base which keeps the cape flat on his shoulder.
Now, i am using a generic base which is not as thick as the stock, but I think the cape is still long enough to be able to be tucked under the stock base.

Yeah, I hope I'm worrying about nothing.
Fair enough, but for me Rey still makes for a very impressive figure with all the different layers and all the cool scavenger accessories that come with it. And I'm also one who absolutely loves the headsculpt on it.
Batfleck definitely has a fantastic, dead-on likeness and looks imposing as hell on display, but the body's proportions are still off a bit from the movie, and the stiff and awkward cape is such a huge pain that I have to knock a few points off just for that. And the figure still requires a bit of modding if you want it to look as good as it can be. I still freakin love the figure of course, but I just don't think it's quite the home run everyone else here does.
Thank you for sharing that. I got on his list for the second run.
How do you contact him if not on Facebook?

I already got in touch with him for a custom cape, and I don't even have my figure yet. Looks fantastic, straight out of the comics. So much better than the movie cape.
