Mutant Mego - BatMan

[Captain_Mego]

Hello ,,this is a Batman Im working on for my
own collection.
He's not quite done yet ,Im working a better cape.
I built him on My new Mutant Mego 8 inch body.
The new body offers loads of articultation for more posing power.
He stands the same size as a 8 inch mego adzactly .
So he blends in nicely with custom mego flatt style figures.
He has cloth shorts and cape.
The body was cast In correct colors. No paint involved excepts for head.
He features a batman dead end head
I sculpted a couple of years ago.
Ill post better pics once done. thanks for looking

HOLY CRAP....That's BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It must be shadow right...His Face isn't really black??:no:


Oh....and I hate You by the way...because I'll NEVER get to own one of these!

[huedell]

Looks graceful yet powerful at the same time---whatta body---whatta figure :)

[The Toyroom]

Batastic Chris!

[SlipperyLilSuckers]

Awesome. And check out those Man breasts! Super Buff Batman.

[aquatroy]

Very nice. I think the bicepts still have to much of that Jakks Pacific Wrestler look going on. The look isn't quite consistant with the rest of the body.

[GSPUSA]

Very nice. I like that. Very classy.

[toys2cool]

that looks freakin' amazing man,it's hard to find a better looking Batman then that 1

[Captain_Mego]

thanks guys for the cool responce on the new batman. I think your right Troy...Im gona rework the arms some more and tone them dowm and give them a little more definition. Im real happy with the body so far,,a little more tweeking and I think I'll finely have the figure I have been waiting for since I was 9 years old. Ill post more pics of him compared to a mego 8 inch tonight. thanks again for the cool feedback on my work.

[aquatroy]

If you can give the arms the same angular look that you have going on in the legs & torso, damn! That body will be awesome.

[Captain_Mego]

yeah I think your right Troy...I was thinking the same thing last night when I was looking at it. Im gona rework the arms tonight and get them into mold this week...I want to remold the intire body this weekened and Im finley done, thank god Im done...lol..the makeing of this thing like to drove me bananas....
I have made 4 bodies and this is the first time Im finely happy enough to use them..the last few had problums here and there, they did'nt look right ,,did'nt move right ..
Im sure you know what I mean,,,I know you put alot of hard work into your new body too. By the way your new body looks great Troy.
Well Im off to work,,thanks again guys for the cool responce to my work its very much apreceated.

[aquatroy]

Thanks for the kind words. I think every customizer should try to make their own body. Not to sell, but to go through the experience. It's a hard thing.

[Earth 2 Chris]

That is fantastic. Superbly done.

Well then....where is the "Cavebody" then?:grin: We been waiting for You to hook up with some Toy Company...and get those mass-produced!:wink:

[aquatroy]

I'm not sure where I'm at with the Cave Body. On one hand it's really cool to have every part of a custom made by me. On the other, when one takes in to account the time and materials it takes to get a custom body together, it makes more sense to buy a Doc Mego body and add custom parts to it.

I'll keep playing with the Cave Body. Like CM, I also need to refine parts. I want to add more articulation to the ankle and add a swivel bicept. I also want to get rid of the elastic in the shoulders & hips. I also want to play with some different casting mediums. The stuff I'm using is a bit to rigid for some of the parts.

In other words. There's still a lot of work to do.

Sorry, I really didn't intent to hijack the thread.

[The Bat]

Sorry, I really didn't intent to hijack the thread.


You didn't...You just anwsered the Question. I've just been dying to know Your Plan's...and how it was coming along. My dream...is that You are able to get it mass produced.:yes:

[YANOULI]

Wow, excellent work.

Can i get one of those heads?

[nightowlghoul]

Very cool Cm! Lots of possibilities with that body.

[thunderbolt]

It looks nice, but I'd prefer to see him fully clothed, like this it looks like a 8 inch tall Marvel Legends type figure.

[Meule]

While I prefer a fully clothed figure too, I gotta admit this totally kicks butt.
The body sorta looks like an armor, not bad at all Chris :applause:

[The Bat]

The body sorta looks like an armor, :applause:


Yeah...if You cast it in black, and used Russ's BATMAN BEGINS Head...You have a perfect Movie Batman!!

[kingdom warrior]

Freeeekin Awesome! Cap that so ROCKS!!!!!!!!

[batmanmc]

thats a cool body. love the suit and head also. great custom work. mike

[kresge1]

Very creative.I would like it better with a cloth suit,but it still looks great

[mego boy CA]

Holy! Awsome! figure! Batman!

[palitoy]

Awesome to look at but I gotta agree that some tightly wrapped Spandex would put it over the top. I might be biased though...

[Yugo]

I gotta agree with these suit guys, Chris.

Your outfits are one of the things that attract me to your figs and I don't really like to get sexual here in the Custom Mego forum.

The cape is perfect.

[Captain_Mego]

lol,, Eric ,,,alright .. I here ya guys im a gona put a suit on him..lol I think you guys
guys are right. This is why ya post your work ,,I do apreceate the feedback. I think its always good to see what you guys think before I put something out ...Batman was kinda a test to see how well he would go over..I guess under roose and a cape aint gona get it ..lol I truely mean this when I say it,,your alls feedback does help shape a good figure,,without it you dont know whats liked and whats not...It really does help ya make adjustments to a figure to make it the best it can be. Sometimes it might hurt a little but in the end its usally good advise. thanks fellers ,Off to the bat sewing machine:grin:

[MegoScott]

Well, it's be amazing to see that body under a tight cloth suit, but then I'd like to see it used to make a Conan or Tarzan!

I still think My Batman Begins idea would be cool though...just cast the Body in Black, and Use the Customslab Head.:wink:

[Wolverine1969]

Another winner, love your work!

[brineb]

That body is fantastic and the Batman looks very cool!!!
