    Those figures are amazing! I really wish my collection budget permitted collecting on that scale. Wow!

      I've only bought two Hot Toys figures, and I had QC issues with both.

      My Reeve Superman had a dead spider laminated into the front of the box...(yeah, THAT'S a new one) and the crystals for the Fortress of Solitude base took several hours of whittling with an exacto knife before they would fit properly.

      Next, my Captain America had a broken buckle on one of the red straps in front, and one of his ammo pouches wasn't sewn together on one side.

      I'm not usually very picky, but at the prices they charge for these, I expect better. I cancelled the Batman and Joker, but I'm still gonna go for the Red Skull.

      Still waiting on a replacement Cap from Sideshow.

        Looks pretty nice, but not to poseable. I would think if it were, they would have had it in some really cool postions. Lot of money for something that just stands there.

                  Nah, bro...you are on drugs...lol.

                  Not being a hater...but don't like that armor stuff...he looks like a damn robot...might as well be Iron Man, lol.

                  Plus the fact that puny Keaton is the person behind the cowl...well...lol.

                  One figure that is indeed better than Supes is Captain America...now THAT'S a badarse figure...

                      bro have you seen the likeness of that face? nothing even comes close to that from hottoys.. I agree the Cap looks amazing but even the likeness of the face isn't as good as that one

                            I have like ...

                            11 Hot Toys figures Now ..., with 2 More on the Way , and ofcourse more purchases planned for 2012. I've yet to expirence the Quality Control Issues with that others have . Perhaps I am just lucky.

                            I can see the Allure of the Keaton Batman .
                            The More I think about it ..., the more I myself wouldn't mind adding him to my Collection, even more so if I get The Jack Joker, which I plan to do. I am so Taken by that figure.

                            As Far as Keaton not being posable ..., I am Pretty Confident He can Move just as much as the Actor did in the Actual Film.
                            ... The Original Knight ..., Often Imitated, However Never Duplicated. The 1st Knight in Customs.


                            always trading for Hot Toys Figures .

                              Oh...come on!

                              You can't remove the entire cowl and show the entire face???

                              Just the lower jaw?

                              You call that likeness of the face?

                              Had it been entirely removable...then...and only then...would you have a point, Damien...
