I never really cared for the NECA head/cowl. It might e in scale with McF but something seemed "off" about it to me! Still looks more like Keaton than this new figure though. That just looks like a comic book Batman. Zero likeness.

Not sure how or why McFarlane would butcher. . B U T C H E R the Keaton likeness.
The third party head cast route from ((Trump voice*)) "China" seems the be the route to go if one wants it done right.
Real shame considering how well the McFarlane Toys movie Shazam and Black Adam figure/head sculpts look.

Yes, I went ahead and ordered a young and older (current) Keaton head for the NECA and McFarlane movie Batman figures.






* No, I am not going political, merely saying the word "China" in the Trump voice because it is kind of amusing.

Would you mind sharing where you bought your young/old Keaton heads? My go-to is usually Namz.store on Instagram, but he hasn't advertised any Keaton stuff yet Image

You offend me.
Seriously.

Of course!! I'd be happy to share:

Luck-Market on ebay

I was looking at their exquisite 1/10 printed heads under the "NECA" search and was amazed by how well a self-appointed amateur such as myself could possibly butcher them. I say this after questioning the "pros" for their butchery.

A local guy did a good Keaton Batman custom with a head that he got from Casting Cave. Looked spot on, but CC isn't selling them currently. I contacted CC about it and he said he'd let me know when they go back into production. Seems like the time would be right to do it now with the Flash movie inbound, so I'm hoping they make it available again soon.

I'm still on the fence if I want that Batwing.
I have all of McFarlane's vehicles to date.
I will have the space and extra cash once I sell off my Haslab Galactus but still.

McFarlane's sculptor nailed the likeness. It's the caked on paint coupled with the weirdly long neck, which looks even longer bare.

Watch when somebody repaints it.

My bigger issue is that McFarlane's been describing Keaton's new costume as his original 1989 costume. And it not only ISN'T...

But the alternate Flash is wearing Keaton's Returns costume, spray painted red, minus Keaton's gloves.

Swap the new Keaton Batman head and arms on the alternate Flash body, replace the lower torso with one that has the 89 belt, and you get a decent Returns Batman.

It's like the movie people were PLANNING this to make doing a Batman Returns Batman easy and McFarlane didn't catch that.

As I don't know if Spin Master will ever release that Batwing outside of the US, I was thinking of buying it.

Do any of you know a company specialized in that type of things? Getting the stuff then shipping it overseas?
Or should I try using the "friend's help" option?
