Are you getting rid of some of that bulking that they did around the Adam figure's waist?Jimmy L. 66 wrote: ↑Wed Dec 14, 2022 10:59 amThanks Andy!

The belt will slide down the figure with some gentle nudging. The head and hands pop off with minor pressure-- that lets you slide off the gloves and the same with the boots.
I am not a customizer, not experience with "dressing" dolls and I was able to replace the suit with very little effort-- it was so long ago I don't remember the exact steps but it was simple.
I appreciate the info on the belt!
Do you know if Tony happens to be using the fabric that Chuck and Lynne made available?
Into trimming Adam down once I get him stripped.
Absolutely no idea about the material.
I will post some pics soon.

The "fat suit" padding comes off very easily.
I don't know about the fabric either, I doubt he used Chuck's, and it might not scale down properly.

Re: HOT TOYS BATMAN REPLACEMENT TIGHTS
I finally but it on and it is fabulous.
Absolutely worth the wait.
I left the " fat suit " on for now, but the new suit is tighter and I think slims him down a little.
It is a shirt and pants, not a full suit with zipper, mock turtleneck, and snaps in all the right places-but I think it is a vast improvement!
What do you good citizens think?

I remember seeing Wally's upgraded version from Tony in the flesh for the first time a few years ago and was never able to look at the regular one the same way. Like you said the fit of Tony's pattern is definitely a lot more form fitting and really tightens up the look!
Re: HOT TOYS BATMAN REPLACEMENT TIGHTS
Man I need that suit. Brilliant

Re: HOT TOYS BATMAN REPLACEMENT TIGHTS
I’ve been asking Tony for years to no avail
Re: HOT TOYS BATMAN REPLACEMENT TIGHTS
I would never had believed it made a difference if I didn't have one myself-- it made me go from regretting the Hot Toys purchase to thinking it's one of the top items in my collection.

Re: HOT TOYS BATMAN REPLACEMENT TIGHTS
I ran across a picture of the red tight version Tony did to resemble the Italian movie poster, and reached out to him to see if he would make another one. Not going to happen anytime soon. Tony is an interesting fella. Big fan of his work.
