Wait, will it actually be 13” or just in scale?

It's not like we're in a competition to post info Natrix!

 

[warlock664]

Sounds like a new body, hence the "accurately scaled teen style figure" reference in the solicit info (hey Jase, I just responded to your posting of this info at the MM board!).

Small internet!

 

[Natrix]

Yeah...looks like a new body (thinner at least, would like it a couple inches shorter at least) with the same old crappy cut joints in different areas.

Hope his shorts don't ride up into the hip joints like Martian Manhunter's. That could be considered kiddie porn.

Yeah we are, didn't you get the memo?

Just so we're clear, it's a Deluxe Collector Figure of Robin, correct?

 

[screamingmetal]

The head sculpt looks nice, but doesn't look like a teen to me.
Let me guess, "accurately scaled teen style figure" means it'll be 11" tall? Maybe someday they'll make teen versions of all the Justice League so we can then have accurate 1/6 scale DC superheroes.

I highlighted the information they left out of the final solicitation for this figure. The price is still a joke though, should be at least $10 cheaper.

 

[Xander]

WHY THE HELL IS HE 70 DOLLARS!!! I know the other's have mostly been around that range but come on!

 

[PosterBoyKelly]

Looks like Clark (I don't know the actors name, not a fan) from Smallville.

 

[Darklord Dave]

My question is - how will he compare with Batgirl? Much shorter? Or the same height? I'd prefer the teens be the same size as the women, but I doubt that's gonna happen.

 

[EVILFACE]

The exposed articulated leg joints look pretty good on this figure.

If only the line was 1/6 . . . .

Yeah, they moved the cut joint down further on the leg where it isn't as muscular so it isn't as noticeable but still bugs me.

So I just preordered Robin from Marc @ AlterEgo. Anybody else notice that the usual 20% discount has been changed to 15% for most new products?

 

[galactiboy]

This new body looks aesthetically much better, but again that 13" scale is a bummer.

And his lips look a bit overdone... like he just got collagen implants

 

[Eli26]

Worst legs ever! Sadly that makes Ellens legs look sexy. *shudders*

Seriously how long can those thighs be? Geez.

Bruce likes it that way......
