"Dead End" nailed the look in my opinion. He'd look great up against a Hot Toys Predator!

Just curious, seeing as that looks like a third party figure, who made it?

I'm honestly not sure. The ebay listing I purchased it from made no mention of it, and I don't remember seeing a creator mentioned on the box.

I'm pretty happy with him, though. Poseability is pretty good since he uses a muscular Hot Toys body. There are a few minor issues with it, though. The black paint on the very tips of his ears was scraped off in the box, but the tiniest drop of paint (or even a sharpie dab) will fix that. The pegs on the wrists are a little short, so the hands come off a little too easily - but that also actually helps with hand swapping. His ankles aren't really poseable because of the boots, but there isn't much they could do about that.

My biggest gripe is the utility belt. It seems to be a thin nylon band, and the pouches and buckle are glued to it. I accidentally ripped the three pouches (they're one piece) on his right side off while putting him on a stand. Freaked out at first, but a tiny bit of hot glue made it good as new.

Oh, and we seem to have similar tastes. I consider the Batman Begins costume to be the best of the movie batsuits. Would've been great with two changes: make the head able to turn like in TDK, and lighten the body from black to charcoal grey at the very least - but preferably an even lighter shade.

And just so I'm staying somewhat on-topic, I got my Deadpool #27 in the mail yesterday. For anyone not aware, it is now in the Guinness Book of World Records for most comic book characters drawn on the cover. Take a look at this thing:
