Hopefully we still get a Batman & Robin announcement and those aren't left to die with the other Hot Toys prototypes.

Pffah. They simply can't wait to get to Stark Week. So much for Batman's 85th.

Holy crap this “event” was completely abysmal. The audacity of including the ‘66 Batmobile in that promotional image is astounding.

Put Clooney and O’Donnell up for preorder and be done with it - then forfeit the license. They clearly don’t care and only have it solely to block competitors.

Thats what they would do if they gave a crap about the customers or the market.
Alas Howard seems motivated by pure spite, he would take the rights to his grave if he could get away with it so no one else can make money or get figures not in his collection even after death.

I'm watching the Snyder Cut and forgot how great the suit looked.

A 2.0 of that would be cool.

A 2.0 complete with that Grim Reaper gargoyle as a diorama base would be incredible.

Just about sums up for hot toys

Not only did they not announce anything new - they actively rubbed something they cancelled in our faces.

I don't expect anything less from them, 12 years after announcing the Returns license and seeing Penguin and Catwoman requested constantly ever since.

I hope they don't announce their own Catwoman, it seems like something Howard would do. Joost deserves all kudos his company is getting, Selina looks fantastic.

I'm more interested in seeing what other characters he'll do, like Jeffrey Wright's Gordon and Zoe Kravitz's Selina.

I don't care who does it though - I want a figure of Oz!

Six Feet Lane / Mars Toys is doing one, although he’s likely still a ways off. “The Bar Boss”.

Really needed a **** eating grin with his gold tooth visible though. If I were to get a 2022 Penguin, I’d want that, with his Iceberg Lounge suit.

Yeah so done with HT after this. Apart from 92 Batman I don't see anything else being done. It would be great if InArt or Joost do more DC figures or obtain the full rights to figures. HT should lose those rights and not come near it ever again or given a stipulation that if they start a line based on a DC property they need to do the entire line similar to how they put out Marvel and Star Wars.
