I always wanted Mattel to make a proper Ra's Al Ghul Batman Begins figure, but they never did. I couldn't let that stand, so here I bring you Ra's Al Ghul in full League of Shadows ninja gear! Ra's al Ghul was made using a Star Wars the Black Series Episode 3 Obi-Wan Kenobi, the head from a Movie Masters Ra's Al Ghul, and the forearms from a Movie Masters Batman Begins Batman. The upper torso is soft plastic, so I was able to pop the arms out pretty easily for painting. I fused the Batman Begins forearms to Ra's arm, and used Aves Apoxie Sculpt to blend it in and fill in the gaps. I also added plating to the back of the hands (including the rivets!) with styrene. I removed the lower cloak and replaced it with fabric. The belt is made using strip styrene, with the belt buckle being fodder. I don't remember where it came from, but it was perfectly movie accurate so I had to use it. Everything was repainted the dark brown of the costume from the movie, with the gauntlets dry brushed lightly with silver for a metallic look. The head was also completely repainted, and I even sculpted in the mouth a bit to remove that weird open mouth gap he had before. One katana later and Leauge of Shadows Ra's Al Ghul is ready to take down Batman and do all that is necessary to cleanse the world of corruption!   Please wait... |
