HOT TOYS - DX15 - Batman Returns KEATON BATMAN

[jankatana]

More factory time dedicated to random weirdness, really a black storm trooper why? whywhywhy

 

[gazzinho]

This is so frustrating. It's clear that star wars and age of ultron will be priority next year. I'm baffled why this didn't get released for PO in the summer. And I don't understand how catwoman and penguin isn't in the plans. I Think they'd sell really well.

So MMS271 ended up being The Shadowtrooper, MMS272 The Mark XXII Hot Rod & MMS276 John Matrix. That still leaves MMS273 unrevealed.

Obi-Wan & Vader will probably occupy MMS277 & MMS278. Maybe MMS273 is our lucky number - that is if the figure isn't a DX.

 

[jankatana]

That's Batman level detective work! Sweet, so mms273 is unrevealed? Thanks SNIKT1950

I doubt MMS273 is Batman Returns. It better not be because it's supposed to be a DX, complete with PERS and the ugly seam at the back of the head. It's probably another IM armor or something we haven't yet seen. Ripley?

I recall seeing a pic of the seam but I couldn't find it, it's somewhere earlier in the thread. But look at those eyes. I would hate for those eyes to be in one set position.

 

[DiFabio]

I bet it's Drax.

 

[YankeesFanboy]

As good a guess as any. And likely without any changes. Oh, the lamentations to come!

 

[dominishin]

Mmm. I really like this suit's cowl design much better than the first suit.

Thanks, man!

The area around the eyes isn't fully painted. I know it's just a proto, but DX12 all over again?

 

[Captain Britain]

I wouldn't read anything into that, the whole think looks pretty scrappy - look at the varying shades of yellow on the bat emblem. This looks more like a kit bash than a proto.

When I predicted a Christmas PO, I meant Christmas 2016.

I feel awful for the guys who've been waiting since 2012.

 

[Spanbauer]

im starting to not even care about this line anymore. By the time this finally does get shown i'll have 20 other
things to buy

Kind of feel the same way.

They're just trying to achieve that look they had with the DX 09 I believe (which turned out extremely well which is why I think they attempted it again with the DX 12). Basically going for this,





Where it was a muted black in the 1989 film. You could still see the flesh of Bruce Wayne's eyelids and the surrounding area around the eye. In Returns though, it's a pretty rich black.

I had WISHED that we would get an official announcement with specs, release date and a PO before x-mas. That was my wish, but now...

 

[YankeesFanboy]

You tell 'em, Corey!

I know this thread will melt down once the pics go up...I'm guessing 30 pages the first day, easy. I just don't want this to turn into the '66 Batmobile, stuck in some weird, perpetual development hell limbo.

It won't be Ripley since there's two of them and they'll occupy back to back numbers. So MMS277 & MMS278 or MMS279 & MMS280 (Obi-Wan & Vader may come before).

I bet it's Drax.

Guardians will be out on video Tuesday so it would be quite fitting to have Drax up for PO this month, completing the team.

I just hope we get Returns Keaton - DX or not before 2014 wraps.

I've been waiting for CATWOMAN since 2012

Yup what was the date.....I think Feb 12, 2012. I have been waiting that long

I'll be very disappointed if this isn't a DX with PERS, dreaded or not.

I've been waiting for CATWOMAN since 2012

At this rate, she'll be a long time comin'. Snicker.
