WW looks great, Batman looks terrible and Superman gets the shaft again.

I was always lukewarm on the TDK suit, but they carried that thing to the top of the ugly tree and let it hit every branch on the way down. That thing is a nightmare.

Woah, never realized just how busy that batsuit is. I guess the black obscures that to some extent.

It's a shame that Wonder Woman doesn't have rolling eyeballs. I'm sure Hot Toys decided against it with the real wool hair, but oh well.

I like the new, improved face sculpt of Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman. This IMO is the best version of all. That said, her costume looks unchanged to me. Anyway, I just bought the excellent new statue of her by WETA, so I have enough Wonder Woman for now.
Bale-Batman looks dumb. It was a poor costume design to begin with, and the addition of color just draws attention to it. I could do a better job, and I'm sure I'm not alone. I wonder if 'woke' culture is handicapping the ability of designers to depict some of these characters in a way that respects the source material. |

Doesn't matter what color it is I still hate that suit. Should have gone with the Begins suit using comic colors.

Is... what? What possible connection between modern political correctness and Bale's Batman suit did your brain manage to string together?

Well, all the woketards do is rehash old things. Very poorly. I think that's what Skoob was trying to say. Apologies if I'm wrong.

Wokeness can be a problem, but I think what happened here is that they wanted a special version of Bale's Batman for the anniversary, so they tried to give him comic-style coloring and failed miserably. Should've been a more matte blue and a lighter gray.

I think the Batman Returns suit would've looked amazing in the classic blue & gray deco.

Batman looks truly awful. I actually hate all Bale suits. It's all terrible looking compared to previous suits. Bat nipples for life.
Perhaps Adam West would ve been better for WB100? I am sure WB forced them to make these rather than something worthy. |

Ew, the TDK suit should never be in anything but vantablack, giving it the blue & grey treatment is the stuff of madness.

Wouldn't be surprised if it was a DEI employee. I don't get that aspect of it. Adam West felt more appropriate. Maybe bale suits sold better... but those colors....eww....ww |

Exactly. Everything from back stories to character profiles to wardrobe has to undergo a meticulous approval process for political correctness. The result is a product that deviates from the original material in different ways -- some subtle, some glaring.
The kind of Batman story that I could tell would never pass Hollywood censorship. Sounds Good to Me... IMHO ;^)

The new Wonder Woman appears to be the exact same WW84 figure I paid 320 dollars for last year, but has the root-haired head I actually always wanted from the Golden Armor Wonder Woman. This makes me mad.
I want Hot Toys to make options available to sell just head sculpts!!... instead of making us rebuy the same figure repackaged--this time 400+dollars, and with the best Gal Gadot head option they SHOULD have had with the WW84 version in the first place. Who's with me?? |
