Random Toy Pic :: Unmasked Batman Playmobil Custom

Using miscellaneous parts from multiple Playmobil figures, I was able to construct this unmasked Batman custom Playmobil figure!

The wings come from a Fi?ures Series 1 Knight, the head (complete with black eye!) and hair from a Fi?ures Series 1 Boxer, and the gloves are from a Fi?ures Series 1 Executioner. The yellow belt is from a random Knight I had in my spare parts pile, and the legs, torso and arms are from other random figures. He is holding a rope with a hook and a handheld computer too, more random pieces I had laying around.

I cut some electric tape into a bat symbol, but otherwise this Unmasked Batman is a simple parts swap custom!

Someday I will need to connect with someone with a 3D printer and get a Playmobil sized Bat-cowl made. I am surprised there aren't any sites online where people sell stuff like that, like there are with custom Lego parts, but I suppose Lego do have a bigger collector/customizing community at this point.

  1. That's cool! Give it time and there will be 3D printing custom galore. I know there's at least one place that does 3.75" Star Wars accessories like cantina furniture/fixtures.

    1. That's the great thing about the Fi?ures blind bag figures...they are designed to come apart easily. As for standard klickys, I wrap a shoelace at the base of their heads like a tourniquet and pull - often the head and body go shooting across the room but it's been rather effective for me.
