Steampunk Batman (DC Universe) Custom Action Figure
Custom #:48693
Name:Steampunk Batman
Custom Type:Action Figure
Toy Series:DC Universe
Creator:Jin Saotome  
Date Added:April 8, 2013
Base Figure:Marvel Legends 2012 Steve Rogers
Height:6.00 inches
"I saw him gliding across the tops of zeppelins that night, an iron shadow with gnashing gears and scalloped wings of copper." ---Gothaven City Resident

As promised I'm expanding my DC Steampunk line with more characters and the Brass Knight himself, Batman is up next. Batman's story is set in an alternate timeline within the city of Gothaven with the Joker leading the clockwork soldiers from Clownstein Castle.

This custom Steampunk Batman was created from a Marvel legends Steve Rogers upper body, DC Direct Batman head, and Marvel Legends Punisher lower legs. All the armor/goggle/detail was hand-sculpted with Aves Studio's Apoxie Sculpt and real leather straps were used. The clockwork wingpack was created from fodder parts including two dark blue wing sections from some other Batman toy and cabled throttle controls. His grappling gun was made from a Gears of War Locust gun. Real metal gears and brass fixings were also used to bring this Steampunk Batman figure to life. I have Steampunk versions of Robin, Joker, and Bane planned along with other DC Universe characters like Green Lantern and Darkseid so stay tuned!

I'd love to see a steampunk version of bane, before or after he injects the serum into himself to become a hulking brute.

This is seriously just amazing! The design is just off the charts! I would love to see this in some sort of movie! One of my favorite Batmans to date!!!

That's one thing I hope that's done someday, themed superhero movies that aren't just based on their original appearance. I mean all we get are rehashed Batman and Superman origin movies. I want Kingdom Come, Elseworlds, Steampunk, etc on the big screen!

This is a masterpiece, Jin! Being a big, geeked-out fan of both your work and ACCustom's, it totally blew my mind when I saw 2 Steampunk Batman's post within minutes of one another...TOO COOL!

The colors are cool? I waffled between black and grey or dirty tin and black but went dirty tin/brown/black here.

Don't let me stop you! I make these to inspire other customizers, not scare away. Do a better one. Add pistons, metal wire, a gear-driven batarang. The sky is the limit! Steampunk Batman with a scarf maybe? Yours can be even more original.

With practice you can get even better. Look for stuff everywhere, think outside the box, there's tons of stuff to use in customizing that a lot of people skip over.

I swear I checked all the figure forums and ebay before I revealed mine and didn't see any other Steampunk Batman figures. I try not to step on anyone's toes that way.
