1/4 and 1/6 Hot Toys Batman TDKR Announcement

[batfan08]

I kind of agree with Void, in that I'd like to see what all he has in the film before they show it. Of course, they could do something similar to Loki, but instead of concept art, they could have a note saying: "Greetings fan to Hot Toys, we are clueless about the villain Bane as you all. Please be patient while we find out what he uses in film, The Dark Knight Rises, and we will update with what he will come with, and what Hot Toys Howard will decide to include in future release."

 

[batfan08]

If they include a laughing headsculpt....they could use it to tease us bad

I guess Spidey would make most sense to be next, not long until it will be in cinemas.

It'd be better to hold off until next week for Spidey. With a week left, the hype will be at a high, and they could capitalize on it by releasing the specs and pics, and putting him up for PO.

That would be the best message Eva

Anybody think we will see anybody other than Bane at Comic Con? I'm betting he will be there but I am really hoping for Catwoman too

It wouldn't surpriss me.

I'm thinking we'll get see Bane, Catwoman a new Batman and The Bat

 

[batfan08]

I don't think we'll see The Bat for a while. It seemed to be in the very early stages in those pics, and, quite frankly, I hope it is a while before we see it. The EB 1/4 scale figures are due in July, the Bat-Pod is due in November, The DX 2.0 Joker is due in December. The fact of the matter is that each of these releases will keep me occupied for a while, and I'd like to savor it. I'd rather that they spread things out and give us time to get used to each new release rather than bombard us with new releases in the fourth quarter of 2012 and the first two quarters of 2013 and leave us hanging for the next year or so afterward with nothing to look forward to.

I'm kinda hoping they have Bane, Catwoman and the new Batman there so it can compete with their Avengers display (which surely will have them all?)

 

[mistermadhouse]

likewise, really hoping they show all three at Comic-Con, or at least tease them!

We'll definitely see the Bat at SDCC. It's their company's statement product. They want to maximize attention. And you're assuming they that production photo of the Bat was taken shortly before being uploaded. I'm just hoping we get Ra's Al Gul, Gordon, and maybe Gordon-Levitt's character if he's relevant. With the reception the Avengers and their Shield buddies got... I think they're realizing they can really milk this line.

 

[batfan08]

I don't think that we will see The Bat, it seems like it'll be their "Big Bang" so to speak. Just like The Hulk, I think it'll be their last big reveal.

Would be great if we got Gordon

Really? If I remember correctly from last year's SDCC, the only future releases not shown were Joker 2.0, Sleepy Hollow, and Cannibal Jack. And the way they worded their announcement of the Bat made it seem they were keen to show they are constantly pushing the boundaries of 1/6. And I'm positive we'll see the Hulk along with other figures they've announced.

 

[batfan08]

I think The Hulk's a different story, though. I think we'll see him last, but the truth is that we've been getting Avengers reveals consecutively for the past few months, whereas, with TDKR, we have yet to see a single figure, which leads me to believe that The Bat is still a ways off.

 

[Sachiel]

We don't know how far along The Bat is. If it's finished by then maybe they'll have it on display. Bane and a new Batman seem very likely. Possibly Catwoman too.

We got full Avengers reveals of the main characters after the movie released. I guarantee they can't do full reveals of the DKR main characters and their accessories (maybe even battle damage) until after the movie releases. I know I'd be angry at them if they revealed Bane and his accessories turned out to be a dead Catwoman and Dead Alfred...


Oops, I forgot to mark spoilers.



. Jk!

 

[hrambo001]

The only reason i mentioned the bat as a possibility was because it would be a big focal piece like iron monger, the im suit up gantry and the '89 batmobile

I'm sure that with the Hulk it would be one of the key display pieces.

That's not counting whatever they have from other licenses. This being HTs, I'm expecting a few surprises.

I haven't had time to reed the hundred's of pages but any chance of them making 1:4 scale vehicles cause that would be insane especially a tumbler or bat from TDKR.

There is zero, and I mean zero chance.

 

[batfan08]

Frankly, I think 1/6th scale vehicles are even ridiculous by a lot of people's standards (and I'm one of the open minded people that think they're awesome), but 1/4 scale is just too damn big. A figure is almost 2 feet tall for cryin' out loud. You could probably let your kids ride around in 1/4 scale vehicles.

 

[hunnipot85]

I never noticed the detail on Catwomans forearms/gloves

Wonder if HT will get it right.
