Hot Toys DX09 - BATMAN - Batman (Michael Keaton) - Specs & Pics

[jye4ever]

I definitely agree that Sparrow is the same quality if not higher due to the complexity and details of the outfit but I haven't seen one pic of him so far that looks as "real" as Batsy here.

Oh, and don't ever correct me again, jye.

Agreed, but as a general statement, done right, Batman and Iron Man figures will always look more realistic than humans or creatures because of the minimal organic components. Jack looks great but his hair gives away that he's a figure and in nice photos the details o the fabrics give away the scale. Batman, especially the 89 suit, has very little to his look to give away that it's a toy, especially since it seems the only seanlone is the back of his head so that sign isn't there and even the body armor shows no strong signs of being smaller than 1:1.

I don't feel Batman is better work than Jack, but the difference in designs allows him too shine HT's quality better.

For real....from the email sent by SS a couple weeks ago.

It'd be DAMN tough to beat this out as the figure of 2012 imo.

Im sure the Batman Returns Bats figure will annihilate it.

Nice Pics to everyone that has them in hand! I thought I would have mine by today, looks like tomorrow! Damn customs!

And this will be the main reason....

Funny thing is one day 89 Batman will be outdated and look like complete crap!!!
The thought of that is crazy!!!

Hmm. I really don't know. I mean what else can they do?

 

[Rzeznikk]

And this will be the main reason....

See, Im not SOLD on the Batman Returns figure because of a Michael Keaton HS, I know a lot of people want it, but I have no use to display a Batman like that. I display Batman as BATMAN.

Instant buy...........

I'll want the Batman Returns figure for 2 reasons - A) the different suit and the cooler symbol and B) so I can have 2 Keaton Batmans displayed simultaneously in different equally cool poses. I was going to get 2 89' Batmans for this latter purpose but theres just no way I could afford to double up right now. In fact I've been selling my previous double-dip Batmans.

Im sure Bats Batman Returns HT will have interchangeable heads and now that they are indeed making this, im not sure if I will buy the current 89 Bats. Im still deciding. Make no mistake its amazing, but I prefer Returns over it.

I did that with the DX Indy (made one a Temple of Doom version) and with DX Jack. But I guess its a preferance thing. I only want and need one Keaton Batman. And Id rather have the 89 Version, so Im glad I dont want the Returns version. Actually Im glad for alot of the stuff HT has announced lately that Im not interested in. Saves me some $$$. But I will surely get 89 Batman and Joker, DX Luke, Robocop, Returns Catwoman, and P2 re-do.

Im sure Returns Bats will be awesome, and if there is a chance I do want him, Ill probably sell/trade out 89 for him. But right now its not looking likely (yet again I havent seen what HT plans to do with BR Bats)
