    Mafex is one of the best at making no-nonsense, straightforward Batman figures. No weird one panel-specific versions. Plus the quality is much better, including better quality plastic. I don’t have to heat the figure up just to articulate a shoulder or leg. Quickly becoming my favourite figure company.

    I’m at a point where I want to skip the McFarlane figures and just save up for these ones.

      I purchased a mafex gambit.. reissue.. full price.. upon arrival I had a squeaky tigh, but the real kicker was the socket on the torso popped out. I had to get creative and inject glue gun and seal the socket in the hole with super glue. Ihad to repair this figure within 2 month of purchase. Remember this is a re-release. I will probably never buy a mafex again.

    Agreed that it's a very classic Batman, but I think the regular head more resembles Batman by Norm Breyfogle than Neal Adams. The long eared head is obviously Kelly Jones.

    Mafex is really good to make classic version of characters. This Batman and Spider-Man are great.

    The pointed shoulders cape would actually go with the regular head as was Norm Breyfogle's artwork in the Knightfall series. The horned cape goes with the long ears as was Kelley Jones' artwork in the Knighfall series. Also, regular head with regular cape works the best because that is his normal and classic look in the Knighfall series. I heard the butterfly joint cup in the shoulders was installed backwards...
    I haven't got mine yet, so I don't know for sure.

  • @Manuortizp
    @Manuortizp 14 днів тому +3

    The horned cape is based on Norm Breyfogle’s artwork during the that era of Batman. So pairing it with the normal head it’s fine. Not an error in the packaging. Loved the figure, cool review as always Brad.

    • @acereview7968
      @acereview7968 7 днів тому +1

      Correct. The long ears are based on the cover art for the Knightfall series by Kelley Jones. Classic stuff!

  • @traviswilcox3472
    @traviswilcox3472 13 днів тому +1

    Blue & Grey Batman is the best look.
    I agree this figures captures the classic Neal Adams art.
    The long ears with horned cape was artist Norm Breyfogle look so we get two cool looks in one package. Nice!

    This is a really good figure.
    I really would have rather gotten a Bruce Wayne head that that rebreather. I just don't know a reasonable scenario for it unless I'm doing an underwater display or gas attack?
    The ring around the emblem. I bet they looked at reference pics where the oval is outlined or similar costume designs are outlined. But this specific iteration is not outlined.
    I could see Mafex thought process. The tipped shoulders makes it look distinct from Hush Batman but the super long ears is not everyones cup of tea.
    The most obvious question is Hush or Knightfall?
    Both are equal in my opinion
    I wonder if Mafex is going to do say the Troika suit that's all black.

    Is the head just a reuse of the Hush Batman head, cuz it looks very similar.

    The new torso joint 'fits' better than the Hush Batman's - the top half doesn't appear too thick and gappy perhaps due to the longer lower half. ...IF ONLY Mafex would make their butterfly shoulders fit better! 😕

    Does that Mafex Superman have the trunks swapped with Cyborg Superman's? That's what I did! Love the more saturated belt.
