Just a fantastic addition. Hard to believe Ramen toys took the whole mess and worked in out. But I disagree, the 89' is my absolute favorite. And it would survive ' railroad tracks ' due to ' bat hydraulics '🦇

Hahahahaha ok, you got me there. Although with the added performances in the White Knight books, I imagine it could do a whole lot that the movie stunt vehicle couldn't. I refer more to the actual one they had on set, though, with comments like that, sometimes, and it was NOT a great vehicle other than to look at, really. Barely functional, and it did need flat movie studio surfaces. He had the bat-lazy Susan in the beginning of Batman Returns, but I never saw pumped up hydraulic wheels in the movies... 😉😉😉 And, agreed, this simple kit solved almost all of the issues instantly.

That's really unfortunate you've walled yourself off from so many great works. I do know people who refuse to watch black and white movies or read older literature. Admittedly it can be a struggle to approach older material, but it's often so rewarding. On the other hand, life is short so if you aren't enjoying old comics why keep trying!

I got similar problems with many books that are considered great and classics. Can't read Tin Tin, for example and I'm sure Corto Maltese as well would work best as a medicine if I'm ever having insomnia. That said, most of the late 90's and even modern comics I'm having trouble with as well. 90's Marvel or DC, I'm solely checking out because of artstyle, couldn't care less about dialogue. Stories in them are often so convoluted that It's best to experience them by reading a wikipedia article about it instead or someting. Modern style doesn't oftentimes appeal to me either, the quip after quip followed by real life pop culture meme or reference is not my idea of interesting action or adventure story. I guess I'm kind of ruined by manga, which is super fast and effortless to read. Easy to follow as well, just start with volume #1 and you'll get the whole thing. That said, there are some older books I still enjoy. Usagi Yojimbo is a great example of 80's book that's still just as redable as it was when it was published. When it comes to European comics, Asterix for example, is still very good .

Seven Deadly Sins is a manga and anime series, following a group of knights. Escanor represents pride (which is why he has a lion tattoo on his back - get it? A pride of lions?). I've seen so many people use Escanor for customs and they always end up looking infinitely better than the original figure, honestly.

@VoidCityReviews
@VoidCityReviews 7 күн бұрын
I noticed that it was a problem most of all back when I had a dedicated figure room.the door was closed so the cats wouldn't get in there and mess everything up and knock things down, but I think it was the act of opening and closing the door which would change the air pressure in the room and create drafts, and that had a tendency to make figures fall when normally they wouldn't. So it's like I was protecting them from one thing but then causing them to fall anyway.

While I would love to have that bat pot, I think I will settle for the two tumblers that I have coming. it still bothers me a little bit that the tires on the batpod are different than the tires on the tumbler. They should be exactly the same. that said, I also still want to go grab my Movie Masters Mattel batpod from my storage unit and see how that scales with the Dark Knight McFarlane figures. I'm sure it will be too small though.
