I've been after this elusive rascal from the Warner Brothers 1989 movie
BATMAN for ages.
First I got the Billiken vinyl kit (See Batman figure also)
and I went to town on that kit.
But, it wasn't the posable, dream custom I have always wanted in my collection.
SO, I built it and moved on.
My biggest obstacle to the finished figure was the frustratingly
specific pants pattern!
And believe me, I searched the globe, high and low!
Nowhere did anyone have it. Anywhere...
This was eventually solved due to the help of a new buddy of mine who
"broke the code" as it were...and it's a secret how I got it, sorry, I owe him that much...but I am eternally
grateful to him for it.
He knows who he is. He deserves his props.
Anyway, I handmade the rest over time.
His shirt, vest, buttons, the long-barrelled gun, his hat...so many small
details that I never see on many other customs. Things that drove me crazy making, but am so glad I did. Those buttons have
specific patterns and his cufflinks are playing cards!
I hope you like my finished figure.
All pics blow up when clicked upon...
