Thanks mate. Its obvious how much I love Batman, but not a lot of people know I also love KISS. I have actually seen them four times live here in Australia, the first time back in 1980

Oh sweet! I've only seen them once in concert, and this was in Washington State, but boy were they ever good and put on an amazing show!!

It will be thirty years ago on Sunday since I saw them live in Sydney for the first time. The line up was Gene, Paul, Ace and Eric Carr as the Fox.

KISS are awesome! No doubt!
The cowl has now been paid for, shouldn't take him long to cast a new one for me. Shipping was a rip-off though!

I just got my new 2 piece TDK cowl from Hunterbats today. It was $32.90 US to come to Australia. Is that close to what you are paying, if you don't mind me asking? And I will get pics up of it soon.

Wow, cool! Post pics asap! Naa, not exactly. Shipping to Denmark was $156

Wow, that is expensive.

I think it's rediculous. I was worried he was trying to screw me over, so I did a bit of investigation myself - turns out he wasn't lying. I'm surprised the amount canada post charges to ship overseas. Oh well, If I just focus on the cowl, I won't feel bad for paying that much in postage! lol
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Oh, didn't realise it was coming from Canada. That makes sense now. Their postal charges are outrageous. But the cowl will be worth it mate. Believe me. I got so many great comments on Shawns cowl at the weekend, and as I have said, I think this one is better.

I really had no idea canada charged so much for postage outside america. I really hope it'll be worth it, because if it's not, it'll be going on eBay after the con in october. But knwoing me, i'll fall in love at first sight

Mate, I know you will love it, and more, you will love he reactions it gets. If not, I am sure I can find a great place for it along side my other five.

Hehe, I get the hint

Not into the Bat at the moment mate?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah, it's dificult to explain, but, for example, at the moment i'm in a ranger mood, which means I focus mainly on most things related to Power Rangers. Then comes the Bat-mood, wheer I can't get enough of, say, BotB. It just changes from time to time. Unfortunitely there's not much I can do about it :/

Yeah, I know what you mean. I go through obbsessive phases a lot. Right now its Batman, but for me it has been on and off for 45 years LOL

Exactly my point

A lot of people found Batman through that film. Its nothing to be ashamed of. Its good that you can recognise now there was so much better than that out there. Thats what you should be proud of.

That is beautiful mate. So jealous. Glad the repair is working for ya. Do we get to see it on you when you get the lining done?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I hope that was not a serious question
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
No, it wasn't serious. LOL. I just know that when I get a new cowl, first is put it on to check the size, then grab the camera and a camera person. LOL Look forward to seeing them bro. And thats serious.

I've run into a few problems, regarding the jaw. It has begun to rip the one side, so I can't wear it for the minute, until I get it fixed. It's so annoying that after putting it on 4 times, it already rips! I need to get some strong fabric, preferibly some canvas and some locktite glue. I'll then see what I can do with it from there. I just hope it'll bond to the urethane well. The nose area isn't doing too well either. Overall, fantastic looking, poor quality

Mate that is so disappointing. And urethae? That must have been a really thin shore weight to rip that easily. My two urethanes are a bout 40 shore weight, and I have to really stretch them to get them off and they are holding together, but I am going to be cautious from now on.
I hope you get this fixed up mate, as it is a shame if it can only be a display piece.
I also got to see the first pull of Reeves Arkham cowl and, to be honest, I can't see a lot of difference between it an mine, so i will be staying with the Reeves comic cowl.

It really is, I thought, with it coming from someone who has been around for that long, it could be nothing but fantastic quality! Is there anyway for me to check what shore of urethane it is?
If you haven't had problems before, I doubt you'd need to be more cautious than you'd normally be.
And I agree, I'm not paying that much for a cowl, which I can't even wear! The purpose of buying it was fo wear!

Truly mate, I wish you real luck. Please let us know how it comes out mate.
