Hot Toys TDKR: 1/4th scale Batman [QS001] - Full Reveal & Specs

[Deano800]

What problems do you have on yours?

 

[Giantqtipz]

The hook on the time bomb gun is crooked. Looks like it broke and reglued.

Also the black paint on the grappling hook flakes easily and i broke the umm finger print drill thing because it wasnt pulled down all the way when i closed it.

The last part is my fault haha.

But yeah, im plannig to buy another one and keep it sealed.. I know that sounds weird, but id like to have one thats mint and not messed with lol...

The gel sounds like a great idea since I'm trying to glue a tricky spot. Thanks, guys.

For those without the sideshow exclusive I just received my 1/4 batman recast cowl from the Hong Kong based eBay seller. Looks alright to me. Paints OK etc and sent VERY quickly. Better than not having one.

I just ordered the last one from this particular seller. Can't wait to get it.

Anyone got this problem yet? Found this on mine right out the box!!

I had the same problem with mine. SSC told me this was the norm for this figure when I tried asking for an exchange. Decided to keep it and fix it. Mine had this problem in 3 different spots. I visited Michael's and got some fabric glue and the armor has stayed on pretty well.

To avoid glue dripping all over the place I used those plastic collar straighteners from dress shirts since it has that sharp edge to it. Squeezed the tube a little and took a very small amount with the plastic edge and placed some between the armor and clothing and held it in place until it dried.

Worked really well. I can't find the glue right now but it was a gorilla brand fabric glue. Less than $7.00.

Still can't believe SSC felt this is normal for a $500 figure.

This is why I'm getting out of collecting 1/6th & 1/4 scale high-end. The cost has sky rocketed to ludicrous levels and QC seems to have gone out of the window. When I first started collecting it was very rare that you would have any issues at all. You got what you paid for. Now the last 4 Hot Toys figures I've bought have all had QC issues and the stock reply is "They're all like that". You're paying a premium price for quality, not to be fobbed off when there's a problem.

May I ask what are you going to collect now then if you won't collect high end 1/6th or 1/4th scale figures anymore?

I'll still get the NECA Alien stuff. Ironically their QC is not great but they don't cost in excess of £200 quid.

I've been eyeing up the Star Wars black line too.

I prefer eyeballs to be honest!

Is there any soft rubber on this figure? I am afraid of things breaking down.

Ah ok well their stuff is quite nice looking to, so it's not like you are collecting poor looking figures.

After the loooooong wait I finally got my QS001. So happy to have this figure before the year ended. I patiently waited for this since August 2012! Will take time to display it though as I plan to move my collection around with new shelves fabricated soon

I'm not to sure everything feels like a soft plastic material, if it is rubber then it's pretty damn good quality rubber. Sorry couldn't give an exact answer
