    I really feel like it would have been at least acceptable if they'd used the short cowl and done a new face print. The old cowl and reused print just feel cheap, especially compared to the really great build I'd the Batmobile

    For the cowl, I feel like they should’ve used the Batgirl cowl piece from TLBM, except it wouldn’t have the peg on the back for the ponytail, and it would be in black. And on top of that, it doesn’t cover the minifigure eyes. It works so well

    So I pulled a 9 year old you and started doing some of my own sharpie customization to my Battison (the official Lego one). I added some of the small details they missed on the legs and I don’t have those black widow arms everyone’s using so I made my own. I also took the cowl they used, cut the bottom half off, sanded the crap out of the rest of it until it looked like the one from the movie, and finally made a new head. Just wanted to say this because you really inspire me to make customs and while I don’t really do full custom paint jobs and sculpts like you, I love making my own semi-customs to improve existing figures. Thanks for all you do man and keep up these amazing videos.

Its amazing to see how far you've come!

  • @tomtudorweaver1078
    @tomtudorweaver1078 2 года назад +2

    Yours really looks stunning, even with the minifigure proportions it captures the look and bulk from the film.
    I got the upgrade arm and head parts from Firestar Toys, and just used those and the shorter cowl on the official minifig and it goes a long way to improve it.
    Even then there's at least a lot of easy fixes to the official minifig like using the Black Widow arms, or heck the one grimacing head from the Lego Batman Movie sets does a good job at least mimicking the personality of Pattinson's Batman even with cartoony white eyes.
    At the very least I think they should've used the cowl with shorter ears, that alone I feel would have gone a long way to improve the look.
    At least every other minifig was pretty close, Gordon and Penguin's hair I think could've been different, and Riddler without the hairpiece and adding a green Arrow folded hood and any black legs with detail instantly makes that minifig better.

    What I find especially funny about the new Batman mini-figure is that they had the right face print but for no reason at all decided not to use it despite the fact it was the main face for a Batman mini-figure pre dating the Batman movie. Y’know the pale one that a lot of people didn’t like because of how white it was, that would have been perfect for Pattinson!

  • @sonicbelmont300
    @sonicbelmont300 2 года назад +1

    The type 3 cowl would've worked so much better, and while I understand it still takes manpower they didn't really have, a small chest piece similar to the Lego football pads would've really made it pop, especially if they'd added the collar to it.

  • @Juni_Bowman
    @Juni_Bowman 2 года назад +1

    Why does everyone seem to hate the old cowl? I like it much more than any other one they’ve made because all the other ones (including the one you made for the custom) make his head look super wide and big. it looks like megamind trying to fit his head in it. the original one meanwhile is taller therefore making the width not so obvious. I like the original design, I’m the same way with the fact they changed the iron man helmet in some sets to something that looks worse.
