    That is so incredibly awesome! Love the head you used and the paint is great. The mix of black and dark grey is really set off by the small colored details. Too bad Hasbro doesn't release crossovers that are this mind blowing. Excellent work!

    Plastic perfection! Absolutely glorious! And the backstory is a great bonus. Amazing job, I love it.

    Still LOVE that BATCON.

    BATCON!!!!

    Was that cape handmade or from something? Having issues with mine drapping correctly. Yours has that proper look to it.

    Thing is with mine is that there is really only the one point of attaching it and that it has to be removable. So making it drape properly proves to be a little bit of a bear. Might just let it go in the end maybe. Still on the fence about it.

    Mine is made from a silk'ish kind of fabric. It also helps the way it's attached it sits out a little further than just flush behind the head so it can go straight down...if that makes sense lol

    Very nice! I think the Batmobile mode wins out. Very Tumbler-esc.

    I thought the SAME thing when I looked at Springers Vehicle Modes.

    It is called: Batman Power Attack Deluxe Figure - Battle Cape. Saw it at a Target and it was just prefect. Even though it says deluxe it is about the size of a TF voyager. I grabbed it and went to the TF section and paired it up to a BH Prime there.

    Can't seem to get a produce picture to link here at work. But just a google search will pull it right up. Going for about $12.

    I see what you mean. Don't think I can make it work though. Pluss having those 2 points of how it's connected to the body helps. That's how Batman wears it anyways.

    But I'm okay with it then. Is what it is. :)

    NICE!! Cant help but want to see Sandstorm in these colors! Much more armored in nature! Not to mention the fans/wheels give somewhere to hang his cape!

    That's a good question.

    I have a strange idea: Beast Hunters Grimwing redone as...well, somebody from Batman's character list. The Penguin? Man-Bat? I dunno, just spitting out ideas...

    For the cape, what i would try and do is, have some form of triangle plastic with a 5mm peg on one corner, then glue the cape the opposite edge. It would be detachable and would give you the drape shape. Do you have access to a 3d printer? I am trying to think what you could use to do it otherwise.

    Great work though, and if you have the time/money, i would love to see you do this to a sandstorm mold!
