You can always get this is your afraid to mod your figure. http://cgi.ebay.com/1-6-12-Hot-Toys...14&_trkparms=72:1205|66:2|65:12|39:1|240:1318 . The belly looks pretty flat to me.

I don’t think that was modified. Like I said in the other post, the “beer belly” can be minimized and controlled. With a little practice and playing around with the figure, you can lay the body in that pose with out having the “beer belly” as a nuisance. As for the chest area, it will pop out somewhat to some unbearable degree in certain angles and poses, but that has a lot to do with the body frame HT used and it can’t be helped. However, in some poses, with the subdue colors and overall appearance of the figure; you can somewhat negate the pop-out effect of the chest area a bit. It will be there, but hardly noticeable. In anyhow, it’s indeed a great figure and it's one of the best 1/6 scale figure I’ve ever own.

I agree with gqxsensazn... Voudoun, you really post some amazing pics of the original costume Batman and I can't wait to see what you can do with this figure. t:

Thanks, I've been so patiently waiting for ages for this. I have quite a few reference samples once this arrives I want to replicate. And hopefully next year when I get the Pod and Tumbler.

TDK suit shots should be very slick.

Sound like we’ll be in for a big treat and from what I’ve seen so far in what you can achieve in your pictures of the OC Batman… I can’t wait to be surprise. t:

Arrived this morning, two days to get here from Hong Kong.

The worst part is, I haven't even seen the film. Getting the DVD for Christmas!

Only one quick pic for now... might do some tonight if I have time. No promises!

Voudon, how do you like your figure so far? Is it bulky?

 

[Jack Ups]

its the suit, thats makes it bulky!!!
i got it today
theb elly is on all the figs..... you can move the torso in and get rid of it in abit 1 sec
and lall ive done is put some rolled up cardboard up the back inside of the suit to pull the rubber abit more and it looks perfect.

Are you able to post pics, Jack? Just to see what you did? Mine's coming on December 10, so I have plenty of time to add more info to my long list of modification steps, all courtesy of the members here.

 

[Jack Ups]

yeh sure, ill put picks up later.
Tbh the thing looks so much better in hand than any picture can show you.
At the end of the day it can only get so realistic due to it being 1/6 scale.

It can be bulky at times, yes but I try and shoot so the chest doesn't appear Schwarzenegger like. Apart from that I love it.

Just Googling around for cities at night.

 

[Jack Ups]

from the date i brought it, it makes it a first wave.....

OH NO THE BELLY !

a millie sec later

Its the suit, i rolled up about 2 bits of thin card, and just out them it under the suit on the lower back, so when the belt is on the card is sitting between the belt and upper back.
