Yeah, I stared at that pic last night for about an hour. The BATs are some kind of silver/grey color. Their body mold is some kind of frankenstein mixture of V1 and V2 parts. The Box depicts a flamethrower on one hand and the claw on the other. I dunno how they will pull this off. I think half the BATs may have the flamethrower on one hand and the other half will have the claw on the other. But based on the pic, the legs, waist and torso are all V2.
Actually one day I just played around with a mold I had of the claw and made it fit with the V2 arm, its probably uber simple to do in a factory (feet hole have been resized for larger foot pegs in exisiting molds. Comic packs show us tons of examples of this).
So really I don't think its a stretch to say they just did a minor (and I mean very minor) retool here. The reverse (as I undersand it, to make the Flamethower to be compatable with the V1 thus making the Flamethrower attachment much smaller) would be much harder.
Feet holes have not been enlarged ever Zed...if you look closely a number of the comic pack fgures have had entirely new parts tooled up for them.
My bet...and it'd be extra lame if I'm right...is that the Con bat's won't have interchangeable weapon arms.
Because the retooling the attachments would require cutting a 3 peice mold. and MC/FP only ever has one mold made up per convention. have one tool made for a new set of Lower arms, and a New head makes the most sense...especialy given the Club's track record.
I think these BATs are bordering on the level of an epic failure.
There's not enough detail in Gristles glasses to make out a reflection...I think most of what you're seeing is th eyebrow drawn by the artist.
