They're both scheduled for march, so I'd imagine around then. I don't expect either of them before then.

Really want this now. Any tweaks are a plus.

Back in the '90s, post-Knightfall I believe, Kelley Jones and Doug Moench did a Scarecrow story in Batman issues #523-#524 that was unbelievable. Their entire run on Batman was like an old EC horror series. You should look up those two issues.

That was the second comic I ever owned. Started my collection with #522. The whole Moench-Jones run is a real treat, ran for 3 years or so.

That 2-parter also tied in to the Batman Annual by Moench that year, which was a "Year One" telling of Scarecrow's origin.

A Dx Bane wouldn't surprise me. Not only is the figure they're making ...less than great, but it's missing a few things:

The stock market vest, his pea coat, the black shirt from the prologue. They could throw in his "IMAGINE THE FIRE" Shot gun as well as a photo of harvey dent too. I still have a hard time seeing how that might justify a DX unless they include some kind of environment pieces like the full catwalk or part of Carnegie Melon steps for him to walk down.

Bane does not need a DX release. Would be a waste. Leave DX series to more Iconic characters. They can always release another version under their regular MMS line or leave it for a Con exclusive. They've already spent too much time with Dark Knight characters on the DX line plus they covered the top characters from the trilogy anyways...... twice.

i doubt the dx will happen for bane, but it would be worth it for PERS on this character ~ he really could use it!

also, i am not remotely sick of the dark knight line and hope they continue as long as they want ~ maybe enough with bats and joker, but i want a blake and a ra's (even if they are an outside chance).

While I wouldn't say I'm "sick" of the Dark Knight line, I do feel compelled to by them so my paypal account is very sick.

What's left to make? Only Ras and Blake like you said. I don't want to see Rachel, Fox or other civilian characters that wouldn't translate well into action figures. Leave those to the customizers. I'd really like to see them concentrate on Batman Returns.

Don't mind a couple of characters as well, but leave those with the MMS series. Not brought PERS with Bane, more interested in a pissed off, angry look.

They should add PERS like Hulk.

They should add PERS like Hulk.

But Hulk doesn't actually have PERS does it? Does it have something else? Still wonder how that system actually works

Re: Hot Toys – MMS183 - The Dark Knight Rises: Bane Collectible Figure

I think it's something similar to the eye system of the original 2004 Enterbay GOD set?

They should make a Rachel Dawes with interchangeable heads for Katie Holmes/Maggie Gyllenhal.
Or a DX of the Hobo who gets Bruce's coat

Blake and Ra's seem like "must haves" to me. Hell, Ra's has a few different looks, they could throw in the kitchen sink with him. Would love a LOS "training" Bruce Wayne. Trench coat Gordon with Bat-signal would be most welcome. I'd be satisfied with those plus the existing figures.

would be likewise awesome.

Blake, Ra's, Alfred, and Fox all need to be made. Wouldn't be a complete Nolanverse without them.

Re: Hot Toys – MMS183 - The Dark Knight Rises: Bane Collectible Figure

They'll most likely release it as a 2 pack with Ra's as an exclusive, as soon as they ran out of figures to remake.

That would be great if they did Alfred and Fox as a two pack. Ra's would probably be a stand alone and more than likely Blake would too unless they did a two pack with say Commissioner Gordon.

Re: Hot Toys – MMS183 - The Dark Knight Rises: Bane Collectible Figure

As much as I'd like a Fox and Alfred figure, I think they wouldn't sell well at all, if the previous demon bats and scarecrow is anything to go by.
