Well, not completely off-topic.
Do you know if the capes or chest/body accessories
(like the Batman one) will work adequately on a minifig?

The chest on Batman, which is jus' one of many Kubrick chest/body
accessories look a lot like the body armor on the Lego minifig Ogel in size!!!

Just wondering if anyone ever swapped accessories or did a side by
side photo-op of the figures comparatively?
Thanks,
