    So stark made a suit specifically to defeat the Hulk right? but lets be honest, the Hulk is not even that tough! If someone ever needed a suit... well that would be joker, he does face a tough guy in a bat suit, and way more frequently than stark faces the Hulk. So I thought that to better accommodate joker's every day need, he needed to suit up. So the joker took a little tour over Stark facilities, brought down mr star and "borrowed" his suit. Of course the joker had to pimp up the suit to "fix" its looks.
    This figure has 11 working leds, 4 orange in the back, green in eyes, chest and left leg, and 4 more blue in the sides and back of the legs. The original design intended to add another green in the right, but well, the joker is not that good for electronics so he messed up and got a non working led there, which wasn't worth fixing after all the paintwork.
    So here you go, I present you joker's Batbuster suit. The last of my four figures project.

    You can see the full album in my flickr or in my facebook page

    Great looking "Batbuster"!

    Looks like a repaint of last year's Avengers 2 Marvel Legends 6" Hulkbuster BAF with LED's added

    Thank you!!!
    and you got it right. It is the BAF Hulkbuster with LEDs added to match the color schema. That was the hard part actually. I just dont know... how the joker did it :)

    This looks great, especially the head! Did you by chance have to take apart the feet? I noticed on mine that his right foot doesn't arch up all the way forward or back. You can see in the attached picture that the heel doesn't tuck like the left foot. I'm guessing that the ankle ball and disk need to be flipped. Is there a mushroom peg that goes into the foot to make it pivot and would I need to boil it off to flip the ball/disk?

    Collage 2016-10-19 14_00_40.jpg I went ahead and just heated water in a mug for one minute then dunked the leg knee high for one minute. I was expecting the peg into the foot to come out, but the large peg at the Achilles popped right out (which makes sense). You can see in the top left picture how it came out and how the ball joint can't move as far forward as the top right picture with the ball joint turned. Now everything's flush and cupped.
