Ian,
That looks great! My first attempt with the pink was that it was too pale (in Batcrafts). Then Chuck posted some additional pictures, and I decided a hotter pink would work, so I did both the Mattel Batman, and the DC Direct bust. I rushed this last one, and didn't prime it, so I'll be redoing it in time.
If you want to go with the Hot Pink, that's a Testors color, but your color was my first choice too (some red drops in white paint). I just repurchased that Batcomputer and maskless Batman set - 20% off at the local comic shop. Merry Christmas to me - again.
I may be in the minority but I think the McFarlane figures top the Mattel ones. Despite the "Gilla" cowl, the sturdier more muscular body is a vast improvement over the scrawny Mattel ones (Robin too) and I never liked the Mattel stomach joint. The McFarlane's look like toys you could actually play with.

I just want to snag a Batman figure.
Long drive for me to Target and online shopping gives me this....
Keith-
Keep checking Target, they change who they will and won't ship to every few hours. If you still can't order one DM me and I'll see what I can do, my Target has been shipping my way for a while now.

Target just canceled my Unmasked order, after I had to continuously give permission to delay it. What a crock!
Same for me. Last time this happened with the Batcave cancelled preorder (after multiple approved delays), it began shipping to Target stores within two weeks. Also, it was back for order on target.com two weeks later.
They also had some Batman unmasked (two of them, but the packaging was slightly crushed!), Joker, Surfing Joker, regular Riddler and Robin. Only $AU 30 today. They were $40 last week. I left the unmasked Batman packs, as I think I still prefer the Mattel face.
I actually saw Robins last week at a related Zing! store. The placement of the price stickers meant checking very carefully in case they were unmasked. Alas, no.
