Custom 1989 Batcave...wip..update 6/2
Once I started, I couldnt stop. I decided to put together a custom Batcave based on my favorite, 1989. There have been alot of custom caves, but Ive never really seen one in the complete 89 style. Its always been more of the Animated Series version. So, I figured I give it a go.
This is going to be a work in progress for a bit, however the main parts are done:
I want to add the costume vault and also decorate the backdrop as close to the 89 cave seen as possible. As for custom figs, Im going to do a Keaton Bruce Wayne in black turtleneck and jeans, holding his parents file. Im also going to attempt something that I have never seen, but more on that one later. Id love to do an Alfred custom, but having a bit of a time figuring the head. I may also attempt a Vicki Vale.

Re: Custom 1989 Batcave...wip
Sorry, I meant to reply to this the other day but have been really busy!
I LOVE this Batcave, it's way cool! My favorite part is the platform for the Batmobile, that's neat. I also like the pictures on the computer screens of Joker & his Joker Van.
Here's a photo I made that is a MAJOR improvement of the Bruce Wayne figure, just kiddin', ha ha ha!

Re: Custom 1989 Batcave...wip
haha. Thats funny. Free advertising.
I havent been able to do anything else on this lately. Ive been doing some major cleaning out of my collection. I actually got rid of about 5 boxes full of stuff.
Hopefully in the next week or so I can get back to this.

Another idea might be to do a Vickie Vale figure....that would be totally custom because they NEVER made her. Also, a figure of Alfred ( from the movie ) might be cool too. Just suggestions.

Re: Custom 1989 Batcave...wip
actually, Vicki is currently in the works. She will have an actual cloth dress.
A screen accurate Bob is also on the way. The goons jackets were actually a dark purple, not black.
I already have the body for Alfred, its the head thats got me stumped.

Re: Custom 1989 Batcave...wip
How about the head from a Peter Cushing figure?
There should be a few around either from Dr. Who or figures from the hundreds of horror movies he's starred in.
I had a quick look around ebay but couldnt find any 5" examples.
