Hot Toys- Batman Begins:Batman Demon & Scarecrow spec and pics

[Darkseed]

Good price since I bought Scarecrow for $230 shipped which I thought was a steal at the time.

BBTS price on this was $499............ Guess we'll see that price drop in the next few days.

Screw those pricks! Them and toys2 are over glorified scalpers. They'll get cases of figures that jumped up drastically in value and turn around and list them for twice what they're supposed to go for. They're getting them at factory wholesale, so they're no better than the flippers everyone gripes about on these threads when they do that!!

Toywiz.com is also very high on their figures even on stuff that's easily found at other retailers.

DocTroy - did you see the post above yours?

I was gonna jump on that, but doctroy got himself in a pickle so I thought I'd let him have a go at it


But if anyone does want just a Scarecrow, I got the 2-pack just for Demon Bats. Scarecrow isn't bad looking, but if it's something I could sale to make half of the $300 back then I will. Anyone interested, PM me. If not, no biggy. Like I said, it's not a bad looking figure.

Haha no I didnt catch that. Alls well that ends well, I suppose. Im sure I csn make a litte profit off my Scarecrow eventually.

Expecting them to read even a single post back is a stretch.

Yes, it was posted a few posts back. . .and is actually the main focus of the current conversation

I ve just bought these my first ever Flexpay.I was nt bothered about them at first,but as the months have passed I ve warmed to them.Completes my Hot toys dark Knight collection too.I certainly NEVER expected to see them on Sideshows site!!

Is this thing in stock? I know it says Pre-Order but I am thinking about flexing it, not sure when it'll actually hit. Can you Flex it then change it later? Or Vice versa?

 

[Megacolor]

Is Hot Toys toying with us saying things are "Exclusive" but really not?

ill chime in, the original retail of Scarecrow/Demon was $399 because it was a Japanese import. Now that it will be available from Sideshow the price drops because they are just such a large distributor. So those who waited get it cheaper. Plus people were paying more on eBay for it because they wanted it, thats the whole art of collecting. Supply & Demand. if people wanted to shell out $400-450, then thats the demand.

I actually find Toys2 very fair in pricing. I bought from them before, all at regular retail price. their stuff tends to go up in price if the value of the toy goes up in market value which is fine by me. thats how collecting works....But when the Tumbler & Bat Pod were released, Toys2 had them at regular price of $399/$299...but when the going price skyrocketed for those, their prices went up just like everyone else. But if you buy from them early, you get everything at retail.

the question is, how Limited is the Batman/Scarecrow? seems like there are more available out there to qualify it as truly limited edition. I see less of the Joker Bank Robbers.

But i personally dont care if they are limited or whatever, i just collect them because im a huge Batman fan. they are nothing i would ever sell.

 

[DocTroy]

BBTS isnt fair in trade in value, I know that much.

 

[Bucky Underbelly]

Wow. Didn't expect Sideshow to be stocking these! Thought that ship had sailed already. (I wonder if HT over-produced the initial run or if they've quietly made a few more.)

Glad I got mine through AmiAmi, though. Better price even after shipping. No regrets. (Still ... FlexPay would have been nice!)

Congrats to all the folks who wanted this set who can now get a shot at it for a reasonable price!

Can you Flex it then change it later? Or Vice versa?

I believe you can call Sideshow and change from one to the other.

Yup. You just have to call Sideshow's awesome customer service folks. They'll hook you up if you need to change something later. Because they rock. Hard.

 

[gotham_collector87]

Seeing as this is now becoming less scarce, hopefully they overproduce the new Batman/Bruce Wayne figure.

Not really. I just promote literacy
