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

[MaulFan]

Nice pics, but I don't like the cape. It belongs on the Begins and TDK figures in my opinion.

Agreed, Keaton looks lousy with anything but a leather cape, the suit cowl and cape all work together real well on the actual costume, a cloth cape just draws attention to the cape and stands out as not working with the suit.

for fun ^^

That's pretty cool

If the Begins emblem wasn't there, it would be a neat concept suit.

so will this figure decompose and destroy itself then?

It has about a 13 to 18 month shelf life.

Got to admit, I'm a little disturbed, that this amazing figure, and a DX nonetheless, is not a limited release. Think about it, they are still accepting pre-orders!

So you would rather them make a run of 1000, miss out and pay triple on eBay?

I'm gonna encase mine in carbonite...I may not be able to see it but it'll be protected forever,

i wanna ask something to anyone who already got this bastard, and having dx02 or batman bruce wayne toy fair as well:

are the mouths compatible to dx02 or batman bruce wayne's cowl? or are the dx02 mouths compatible with batman keaton's cowl? i just happened to think about cross-over, that would be cool

*sorry if my english is bad >.<

You are asking if the faceplates are swappable between the figures? Good question!

The DX02 had a different design to removing and applying the faceplates or mouthplates. It wasn't magnetic like the 89' Batman is. On the DX02 you had to remove the HS completely. Then using the tool provided to run the PERS and to remove the faceplates. So, the answer is no, it is not compatible.

For the Toy Fair EX, someone will have to provide that answer. I don't have the 89' Batman yet to comfirm if they are compatible.

It's like a Returns alternate, but better. Lose the Nolan emblem, add
the leather cape and that'd be a pretty cool suit.

I suppose the Bale face plates cannot fit into the Keaton mask can they?

Loving the hefty review TheClipperKing!!

 

[The Side of the Show]

The mouthpiece is much wider compare to bale's.. coz of the shape of the mask or may it'll fit if it's the exclusive version.

I'm hoping it's the same material that was used for this custom Soveign Studios made for me. If it is, then i can assure you that aside from some dust, this material is very sturdy I've had this for over 7 or 8 years now and it is still in tact

My Sovereign Studios custom is starting to crack/decay so it isn't just Hot Toys rubber that has problems.

might-of-been discussed before, but anyway... in a way this "DX" feels like a big F-you from Hot Toys, really.
what I mean is, with Sparrow and Indy we got these huge diorama options, that in a way were there to explain the price. and with Bats we got nada? at the same pricepoint?
if you think about it, we should've gotten the gargoyle from the end of the movie or even the batsignal (in perhaps "slightly" smaller scale) to justify the price... what gives?
are the prices again starting to clime up? is the next "DX" that comes with this _____ automatically 300$ or more?
I myself dont do squat w/ the Sparrow rudder or Indy pedistol and backdrop's, I'm just... let's say conserned about the pricing. something ain't right in Gotham City.


oh yeah, maybe I should get these points out of the way...

– maybe the license was more costly?
– maybe the production was more costly, because of the new suit material?
– maybe Jack took a slice?
or maybe just maybe...
– they just ____ed us in the ___ with this figure, smiled and took even bigger slice of our money?

and yes, if it's too pricey just dont buy it.

Really that sucks mine's dusty, but it's still sturdy and fine and I have had it for more than 7 years now
