Hot Toys Announce Batman Returns License

[Sidious-66]

Even though I am not a fan of Forever, I actually did enjoy Carrey's Riddler and to a certain degree O'Donnell's Robin. I wouldn't have an issue displaying either one with my Keaton stuff, so Riddler was an easy preorder for me (especially at the price).

I am even tempted by the "Double Face". Though Jones' Two-Face was pretty terrible overall, I still think it might look cool displayed with the other movie rogues... If HT ever gets around to Catwoman and Penguin I mean,

Sallah

Forever was a decent movie and the dross that came after that made Forever look lie a masterpiece. And I agree Carrey was enjoyable as the Riddler.

I too would have no problems with this Riddler in my Bats collection and maybe Two Face but Robin I would have to see first.

I think these villains would look great with Nicholson's Joker and the Returns Villains.

As much as people knock batman and robin, you know we'd pre order a batman and Mr. Freeze, complete with slippers, gown and blue cigar.

What about Arnold? He'd be a awesome looking hot toys figure

No doubt they would look AMAZING. But i just dont like those Batman films, so I wouldn't buy anything from them, except maybe Poison Ivy

Returns though, Ill buy them all

 

[VintijDroidGutzz]

Yeah, same - I'd only consider Uma out of those two stinkers.

 

[The-Dark-Knight]

While I know they are not the best batman films I still love them, I watch them with my youngest child and know she'll find it fun.

Yes I'm sure many people find them fun and enjoyable Just my personal taste thats all. I think they work well for kids because there's a lot visually to see. They are almost like cartoons in a lot of ways. Uma out shined everyone for me from those movies, so if they ever made her, i would definitely consider her. Technically I thought Clooney was a great choice for Bruce Wayne, he just didn't have a good director or script to work with. And well all know what Clooney thinks of them

Yeah I think if Clooney had a better director and script he'd be a good Bruce/batman, not Keaton good, but still good. I remember walking out after seeing the film thinking the same about uma, Arnold was the same Arnold he was in every film, so there was no surprise there.

 

[Darth Zangetsu]

I hate to admit that I would buy the O'Donnell Robin from Forever. Everything else is a pass for me. None of the villains were right. Riddler was way to much like the Joker. And Harvey flipping his coin until he gets the result he wants in Forever still pisses me off.

I still think its funny that Keaton was Bruce. such a daring choice. If the internet was around back then, man, everyone's facebook and twitter accounts would have exploded, the earth might have stopped . There was some backlash when it happened, but not to the level it would be today with so many outlets. At the time he was known for Mr Mom, Gung Ho, Beetlejuice, and Clean and Sober. Not roles you would think of a Bruce Wayne. Not a very athletic looking guy either. But he was great so i give him a lot of credit. Glad he backed out of Forever and Batman & Robin. He knew they would be a train wreck. And im glad Bale didnt get the part of Robin back then too.

Yeah Warners got a lot of letters from disgruntled fans about the casting, if I was a fan prior to 89 I'd probably be the same (I got into batman in 89). I read that bale was a runner up for robin, just behind DiCaprio and O'Donnell, but apparently Schumacher could not decide which he wanted more so while at a comic convention asked the fans who would win in a fight DiCaprio or O'Donnell. That's how he made his mind up.

Sad thing is Schumacher could have made a awesome batman film, if he'd gone in the direction of lost boys and flatliners.

I remember saying to myself "Mr. Mom" is going to play Batman? "That'll bomb". And then he turns out to be my favorite person playing Batman, lol. Oh the irony

 

[CollectorGuy]

I would kill for a hot toys Val Kilmer batman in the sonar suit

 

[Ropen]

I love them all, I would have all of them, just to see a val kilmer batman and robin would be nice, even a george clooney batman and robin regular and ice suits along with batgirl, I know it would take upto 2020 to see the returns line finished if they ever release them.

I didn't like the films but I am interested in collecting a 1:6 scale George Clooney Batman figure and the Nightwing inspired Robin.
I liked the sonar suit from Batman Forever. I thought that was actually pretty cool. Chris Nolan used a similar idea in The Dark Knight.

Uh oh... is it finally on it's way near and here? and 1/4 too??!!!

 

[Apone]

Does Riddler come with nuts that he is storing in his cheeks?

Uh oh... is it finally on it's way near and here? and 1/4 too??!!!

Isn't' that the original teaser picture from two years ago?
