Do you also think the origin story in Superman 78 (even further "back then") was being spoon-fed to the audience?
Not at all, Returns suit has a better fitting cowl, boots and suit was made with sharper details then the previous suit.
Different time all together. You're talking about a decade earlier.
That's odd. Why would Sideshow and Hot Toys bother giving such a specific release date for both of them then?
The Hot Toys Community page states "released March 2012" next each figure, just above where the official photos are posted.Unless something changed, HT and Sideshow are just saying Q1 which isn't very specific. I bet we see Joker first.

Burton knew everybody already at least had some knowledge of Batman's origin. That's what makes the whole opening scene of the movie fun. He had a lot of people, including myself, thinking that was little Bruce and his parents getting ready to be robbed and then he just slowly adds his origin story to the film. Brilliant.
I also like how Hulk's was told in the flashback sequences as well.
Yeah it's already been discussed that he could move his head slightly. They've all managed to find away, especially ____ing Clooney and his trademark bobblin head.
I mean, it's not a complete turn or anything but there is slight movement.
I think this figure should have this same range of articulation.
Yeah and then the whole cowl would be flimsy ass rubber. No thanks. I mean, think about that for a second, unless you gave it an internal exo-articulation, i.e. rubber over a jointed head (think Arnold/Dastan/Stallone/Royce etc.) with the PERS and mouthpiece it would never work well. It would be a piece of crap and that's the only way it could work. If not, the PERS and mouth wouldn't be functional.
I think it's fine as is. It's the best possible way to achieve the look of the film suit, and they pulled it off. The only thing this hard resin sculpt does is inhibit the collector of having the cape over the shoulders like in some of the publicity shots but even that may still be achievable.
Who the hell wants to pose him turning his head slightly like he did in the movie? That's what his eyes are for.
It's perfect and I mean that too. A rubber head would be terrible this is the best possible way to translate it in 1/6 scale.
