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

[Seditionary]

I don't really look up alot of HT products too closely, but I'm a batman fan.

yeah, In package makes me really dig the demon the more I look at it.

 

[Echo 7]

price is going to be killer anywhere but a friend of mine here in the States said that the guy he buys from at times wants $500 EACH!!! which is just freaking insane!

IF that's the case then even as a avid batman fan..I am backing out. There is no way I will pay $1k for two figures..that is insane.

 

[haytil]

There's no way these'll be more rare than OC Batman in the next couple months, so I don't believe the price can be sustained at that level.

I'm expecting prices on these to crash once they are in the market - to normal $150ish each levels

 

[Cap'n Cook]

Damn that's sexy.

Must....resist.......

 

[The Mike]

I want that Demon....Scarecrow is kind of meh.

Hope you're right...otherwise, I'm out of the running.

 

[Cap'n Cook]

Can't see it happening myself, if these are Asia only exclusives.

Check out how much the 'Silly thing Exc Iron Man' still goes for.

 

[The Mike]

If its like the Silly Thing then we don't even have Sideshow to help us....

Scarecrow won't get down to $150ish, is my guess. I thought it would if released in the states, but if not, I would guess $250-300, and that's only because of the high edition size. Demon Bats, maybe.

 

[haytil]

The Ebay pre-order prices are slowly falling...

 

[karamazov80]

They still seem to be at $600 from what I've seen. That is a drop from the $1K listing we saw awhile back, but this has been the norm since then.

Still way too high, considering the dead weigh. . .er, Demon Bats is included. At this point, I personally wouldn't take chances on some joker thinking he will be able to get one without really knowing. Only from a place that had a no risk pre-order available.

Tony Cheung's dropped another $50. Just commenting on the continuing trend.

 

[karamazov80]

Is a sample size of one a trend?

Don't get me wrong--I think the price is gonna go down much further, but I haven't seen it yet. I think most sellers are being prudent and waiting until they actually pick these up to start offering them.

 

[haytil]

Not going to argue about statistics or sample sizes. Just pointing out that Tony Cheung, the one seller (out of at most two or three) who has been listing these on Ebay and has been discussed in this thread specifically, has reduced his price even further, which is not only a trend, but is confirming common wisdom that these early prices will not be sustained in the near future.

Actually you're probably right

I'm sure you can get a fellow freak to split the set with you. Seems most want Scarecrow anyway.

 

[intothevoid]

Scarecrow looks quite bad in those boxed pics IMO but need to see proper in hand pics to decide how much I'd pay for him

 

[FLOSI]

They're both pretty bare bones figures really. Scarecrow only comes with an additional set of hands and Batman Demon at least comes with a few more hands and a couple of batarangs and grenades. Anything over 300 for these is really too much.

 

[Sachiel]

The foam is covering most of the Scarecrow's mask. That's why it looks odd.
