would you be bothered if yours arrived like that?

Myself? I would probably do some research into seeing how I might go about fixing it myself first. If it seemed reasonable to do, I'd just do it myself. Otherwise, it seems like it is so small that I wouldn't worry about it. It's not like I'll have people looking close enough at my collection to really notice it.

But, of course, this all depends on my eyes looking at it on display. It's impossible to tell exactly how I would feel by looking at a photo of the "imperfection."

Where did you get it from? That would probably factor into my decision as well. A retailer might make things easier to have it replaced. An independent private seller (a.k.a. Ebay) might not be worth the hassle of trying to reverse the purchase. There is probably a good chance that they will put up resistance and just make it a headache to deal with.

Big Bad Toy Store, I might send a feeler email to customer service, ad might try a few sessions of putting a drop of water/dabbing with microfiber cloth... Thanks for feedback

No problem. From what I've heard, Big Bad Toy Store is a fantastic retailer when it comes to any issues of this nature. So, you may be in luck.

Don't molest Batman!! He's been through enough!



I'm not sure how I would deal with that, either. It seems like such a petty complaint, but it looks pretty prominent. Hopefully you can get a replacement.

i prefer the black chrome one, i have one on pre order,just looks way better but i feel torn as the matte one is more movie acurate. errggh first world problems lol

[kryptonite1970]

I like the chrome finish better especially with lighting.

Just a thought:

Next will be Gunmetal Batman, then Stealth Batman, Then Tank Batman. Sure a die cast is coming. Lol

Never purchased any Hot Toys before, but I'm really digging these guys, anyone know when they're going to be up for pre order/sale?

If people buy this fancy black chrome suit that doesn't even exist in the film, what's stopping them? They can just make up whatever variants they want and release them until they stop selling.

[Ashamed Pegasus]

Yes, they're wasting valuable time making a Batman variation that wasn't in the movie, when they could be making more Iron Man.

I have to admit the Wonder Woman figure is adorable.

Wait... are you the sarcasm? Is Ashamed Pegasus the sarcasm? Are you BOTH the sarcasm? Or are NEITHER of you the sarcasm?

My head hurts!

I don't give two flying craps if it was in the film or not. I buy it because I Like it. No other reason

[partridge]

I don't, and I don't think I ever will, understand the fascination with those cutsie figures. The funko pop figures are a complete mystery to me, why would anyone spend money on them when Hot Toys and Sideshow make the most incredible replica figures?

It's like having your own wax museum of your favourite film characters versus the most generic, identikit, looking cartoony nonsense cash-in imaginable.

Yeah, I said it
