  1. I'm glad the owner of my local hobby store had the foresight to forgo this early shipment and opt for the December shipment. The QC issues would have been weeded out by then, although some of the design issues might remain.

    Well, for me it's either DX12 or no Batman at all. At least, not without paying a premium on Evil Bay aftermarket.

    Unfortunately the skew emblem, restricted hips, missed proportions are sculpted defects that will remain.

    I hear you, I've waited years for a definitive Batman, but not going to sell a kidney for something that went backgrounds in quality.

  2. Will admit, the DX12 Dark Knight is a total disappointment by Hot Toys.

    Almost 300$ for endless inaccuracies on the suit, a figure that cannot sit as the hips are restricted, skew bat emblem on the chest, the cheap out on the EMP gun, horrible proportions, incorrect matt toning, armour plates not glued on straight, armour plates already peeling, magnet attachment from head to neck, and gerbil eyes.

    Pleased I cancelled my order as all the reviews popped out. As it's their third attempt at this particular Batman, and at that price, there's no excuse.

  3. So wierd... All the other toy sites have it listed as a renewal. Can anyone confirm the Japanese tag?

    Just hopeful that they put the old one just for show while a new mold is being made.

    Also, any word on the green version?

  4. And this ratio is?

    Point was that Amiami use larger boxes than HLJ.

    :p I think we're miss-understanding each other. I said HLJ uses larger boxes than Amiami. ;)

    If anything Amiami sometimes packs the content a bit too tight.

    As for the ratio. While I speaking from my expereince as presently I'm helping a friend distribute Kotobukiya here in South Africa. And how it works is that there's a graph that a box is charged on weight initailly, however on international flights a size price is added for taking up space in a plane.

    I noticed this diffirence years ago when my a Valk from HLJ shipped in a tight box came to $40 shipping. A month later with another but same Valk, the bigger box was $60 shipping.

    Unfortunately HLJ replied that there's a fine print in their T&T that the shipping shown on the website is a estimate.

  5. Well by the tape recorder given to the boy and Big Boss's older look it's obviously the 80's.

    He's got that Belgium rifle that was made I think in 1979, for the colonies in Africa.

    It's not said that it's in Cuba. Could very well be in Africa, especially as the dogs used, dunno the names, but read they're African breeds.

    And one of the images twitted by Kojima was a new badge titled Diamond Dogs, obviously diamonds are the miniral symbol of Africa.

    As well Naomi was found in Rhodesia, so very likely this title could be the chapter involving her and Gray in Africa?

    Other big rumour floating about is that the boy in the cage is either Solid or Liquid cause of the song played.

    As for the guy with the burnt face, I dunno.

  6. I thought EMS was only dependent upon weight, not package size..? :unsure:

    Otherwise Amiami would be near criminal. Half the content of their packages are paper.

    Nope. It's in ratio.

    And nope, I stated HLJ were using big boxes, not Amiami.
