Seems like cillian murphy's scarecrow is coming, with HT's halloween themed event?
I keep hearing people saying this rumour - any idea where this is coming from, any reliable sources?
I would be delighted for it to be true, but part of me thinks it might just be hopium following the disappointing 85 anniversary announcements [and lack thereof]
 
I've recently started collecting statues, myself. But, the 1:4 and 1:3 stuff is huge by comparison to a 1:6 figure.

I think unless you have a lot of real-estate to work with, a venture into statue collecting might end soon after it begins.
I personally don't have a ton of display space, but statues bring about a less if more approach for me unlike the smaller scale that invites buying more and more, especially characters I may not have as strong of an attachment to just to complete a certain line up. Statues ideally make one think more on the purchase since they aren't as easily sold off as figures. I know that I will currently sell off nearly all my 1/6 before I let my statues go.

Both scales have their pros and cons though.

Where’s this?

Yep, a lot of overseas social media posts are discussing
There is a reliable source poster from overseas social media, who often gets correct on upcoming figures.
 
Just for some clarification, the overseas poster that was mentioned posted this back early I think this year. I tried a automatic translation and it goes as the following: (Note: this a automatic translation, so some might not be translated correctly)

tomhardy, harleyquinn rooted hair, scarecrow with cillian murphy headsculpt, mk80, garfield, 92 keaton, arkham batman beyond, arkham batgirl color change, samurai predator, don't know true or not.

So far a lot of it has been correct??

Really need ‘97 Batman and Robin to go up for preorder. They’re the type of figures Hot Toys would totally end up putting in Hot Toys unreleased prototype purgatory.
 
How could they not take this time to focus on the villains throughout the Batman films and games.
It’s money on the table.
 
So the list is pretty much guaranteed... what the heck does the "Tom Hardy" one mean? Can't think of any license HT could do other than Bane which is already done. Surely not a Bane 3.0
 
HT hasn't revealed any 1/4 scales for this year and they seem to flip flop between Iron Man, Spider-Man, Batman and Star Wars, the last 4 of which were Iron Man and Star Wars. A 1/4 BvS would be cool ('89 even better although even less likely), but I don't know how realistic that would be if they have the BvS 2.0 and Returns 2.0 still on PO.

If they are going to do Batman this year, it's going to be another TDK isn't it?
