Mine has a coupon for $20 off that expires on 11/15/16. Haven't opened my Batman yet; I will in about 30 minutes. I will be modifying it on the weekend though.

Well there he is... This Batman is loaded with accessories. I'm so glad I ordered the set with Superman when it was offered. This Sunday I will modify the cowl, the belt and the cape and add some silver scratches to his emblem.

I'm so jealous. I really want that Batfleck trio now. Gorgeous pics.

He's already the highlight of my Hot Toys collection

So was Yellow Jacket cancelled? Been no news since the original picture and the prototype

Is the Deadpool Hot Toys going through a running change of improvement on his ball joint where the hand connects? I saw a couple videos on youtube and the reviewer said the material was wearing down by putting the hand in and out of the socket.

Yes, that's exactly it. At least for the ones sold from Sideshow, that peg piece is longer.

Quick question for Hot Toys fans. How do you display and store your Hot Toys?

For display, I'm going with:
* Ikea Detolf kabinet + Dioder white light pucks
* I'm in the process of adding backdrops I made myself, to make them stand out more
* I'll also be adding weathering strips to the sides and top of the door, so that less dust can creep in.

Now storage is a problem for me: for now I keep all my accessories of each figure in the original box. But that means that when I want to change the pose of my figure, it's a hassle to go through all the boxes and look up the piece(s) I need.

Do you guys keep all your accessories in one box or keep them in the original boxes?

Each of my figures gets a labeled Ziploc bag for their accessories and then those bags I store in an easily accessible box.

Petra_Kalbrain · 10-30-2016, 05:12 PM

Hmmm... interesting. I never thought about that "accessible accessories" situation before. Then again, my collection (9 or 10 figures) is all still in their original packaging as I have no room to display them yet.

Kyo28 · 10-30-2016, 07:40 PM

Thanks for your reply, Spyder-Dan. Do you feel that the accessories are well enough protected in the ziplocs?

I might give that a go!

Absolutely! As long as the bag is the quart size that way the excess can be gently wrapped around the accessories for cushioning. Also, don't overstuff the box either. As more accessories are being accumulated get another box. Don't forget to label bags as to what figures extras are inside and label the boxes(es) with what is inside.

I'm stealing your idea. Though, my STRIKE suit Captain America came loose and I have all his stuff in a baggie. I need to get rid of these boxes taking up my closet on the side. People used to buy these on eBay all the time, and I tried selling a few, but no one bit.

Wait until you get to 35 figures then those boxes will really take up a lot of space. Especially when one of the boxes is the Batmobile...

Did you throw away the boxes, sold them, or kept them in your garage?

Well... 35 figures outside of 35 boxes takes up twice as much room (or more) than 35 figures inside of those 35 boxes.
