Hot Toys - Batman 1989 - Michael Keaton

Re: HT Batman 1989 Coming

After these newest photos and videos, I'm pretty sure that Jack Joker sculpt is the single best sculpt that HT has put out. Unbelievable.

Bummer we're not gonna see Keaton though, I wonder how long they're gonna wait to unveil him.

Saw the Jack Nicholson Joker in the vid as well which is most probably the next DX07, something is missing about him, it would be awesome if HT added the punching glove mechanism that he used in the film when he smashed the TV

Batman himself, I'm going to guess no, I think what's there is all we're going to see, more views of it, but I think all of the products are up.

That's what I'm afraid of. Oh well. Joker looks great and the 1:6 Batmobile was a nice surprise. As long as they get it right the wait is worth it.

Although I would love to see what they've got so far, no matter what it is.

Re: HT Batman 1989 Coming

To me this figure Has to be under $250

Indiana Jones comes with two separate outfits and two faces.

Joker has one outfit and one face.

Pretty simple that this needn't be more than $220

This Nicholson Joker and Godfather are tops (at least with the pre-production product displayed--will the released be as good? I think so.)

I really don't think they're waiting, I think they're struggling to get the cape right. I figure all but the cape is probably done and they're just working on that. The suit, head, all of that's been done 4 times now by HT with the various Batman figures, the cape is the only new thing for them and if you get it wrong it really hurts the look of the figure. Sure the innaccuracies on the Bale Batman capes bothered folks but the capes in those movies didn't play as big a factor in his look as the '89 suit, he was like all cape for the most part, and the look of it defined the character's appearance so getting this one right is as important as a portrait likeness.

It may end up on the cheaper side, but, this is the first licensed Nicholson figure of any character he's played, and it's an under marketed movie in this type of collectible, so they can still jack up the price because they know the demand is there and it's a scarce market so it's buy this or deal with custom parts or nothing at all. They'll get whatever they want to charge.

I bet they're going to wait to tease it up or they're still working on it. Maybe in a month or two after the Batmobile and Joker spec/pics we'll see a teaser then a full spec/pics reveal.

MMS DX 01 Joker
MMS DX 02 Batman
MMS DX 03 Michael Jackson
MMS DX 04 Bruce Lee
MMS DX 05 Indiana Jones
MMS DX 06 Jack Sparrow
MMS DX -- Luke Skywalker (confirmed as DX 07?)

MMS DX -- Joker
MMS DX -- Batman

Judging by the Joker, I expect Batman to be the next DX figure. Just like TDK DX Batman followed TDK DX Joker.

The longer the wait is for '89 Keaton Batman, the better it will be.

I know I'm beating a dead horse and in the wrong thread at that but how the hell is there not a Terminator T-800 figure amongst that group yet??
