I just got my suit from Tony today and it is definitely an improvement. I haven't had the chance to put it on my figure yet but right off I can see the differences that I otherwise wouldn't have. The color overall is more screen accurate and the "warmer" gray matches better than the original HT suit. Also, and this is HUGE, the material Tony used is more durable than the original. This is the material HT should have used as it doesn't seem as prone to snags. I had no qualms about handling the Tony Meis suit without using gloves, whereas I'm VERY cautious when handling the original suit.

except for a couple details that give away these are 1/6 figures..these are amazingly just like old b&w publicity pics from the show...AMAZING!

Got these last week. I haven't decided on a permanent spot for them (it really depends on the Batmobile), but for now, I just have them in the cabinet. I understand the excitement around the Tony Mei suits, but I have to say, right out the box these figures are spectacular. The only thing that would make me happier would be if the cape snap things were easier to use...
Pardon the crappy mobile phone pics...

i just got my two yesterday from ssc, but decided to just keep em in the box. i mainly bought them to be accessories to the '66 batmobile, so no use taking them out til that baby comes...whenever that is.

Robin's arms are super tight. Anyone else have this problem?

Mine were at first. They loosened up after I bent them back and forth a couple times.

I'll work on them tomorrow. I'll take the hair dryer to them. That should loosen them up.

Just got mine today. Great figure. My suit does have a couple small snags in it, what is sideshow doing about the snags in the suit? Also when I took the plastic tray out of the box, there was an empty clear plastic bag taped to the back? Did anyone else have that?

I'm fairly certain the bag taped to the back held the cape in it.

I figured that what it was supposed to be, but mine the cape was completely out and the bag was just hanging...

I REALLY HOPE HOT TOYS includes a BATCAVE DIORAMA, you know a cardboard image background which would be a really cool display accessory for the Figures and Batmobile.
