HOT TOYS - DX15 - Batman Returns KEATON BATMAN

[vito81]

Neither do a dozen other figures. It's just figures already released. So that display means nothing. Sorry.

That display shows every Batman franchise that HT has except Burton's Batman...

 

[franpincho]

As the poster at the top of the page pointed out, no more Batman Returns symbol at the show...

Then again, no STAR WARS either, which is odd...

It's all marketing. Remember that this event is in Brazil.

Believe it or not, while SW is better than sex to some people here in N.A, it's really not the same at all in South America. Not that It isn't popular or anything, but the level of fandom is nowhere near what it is here. Same with Burton Bats.

Robo and Terminator are popular too. Not huge but very popular.

As to why '66 Batman is up there is anyone's guess. Never thought that show was popular enough back there. I might be mistaken.

Hell, if HT were to do Dragon Ball, South America would be its #1 market. We are weird like that.

IM and Nolan Batman? They are a wet dream.

That's interesting...

Yep, and again...they are all ones you can order now. Even arkham batman. They are show casing figures that are for sale. That's why the returns batman is not there. It's not indicative of a cancellation or lack of desire. It simply means it's not currently for sale.

So Joker 2.0, Bane, Catwoman... are available???

 

[DiFabio]

Yeah, DX 11, DX 12, Catwoman and Bane have been gone for a while now.

I don't think the lack of Keaton is an indication of "OMG, they aren't coming", but it is messed up that Batman '89 isn't represented. Who cares though, it's just a stupid banner.

I think he was talking about the pictures of the logos, underneath the pictures of the figures.

But the overall point - and you may have been pointing this out as well - is that this is just a nice-looking display, with nice-looking banners and figures, at a convention. There's nothing deeper going on here, and no conclusion about the direction Hot Toys is taking in the next year, can possibly be drawn from their display here.

 

[Motuxmen]

Yep. I can go to eBay or retailers and buy them.

But what I meant was released. Figures that have been sold or can be bought: ones on the market.

Here is my DISPLAY Case project which can be personalized for your taste! I will produce them and give the service of graphic design if you want! These display cases are also used as wall-hangers. For the statues, there will be only one dimension which museum poses could be fit in! It is still in development stage but I will let you know every detail soon!
Will you purchase one?

 

[YankeesFanboy]

I wouldn't read too much into that banner.

That being said, put this ****** up for PO, HT.

 

[batfan08]

So, what are we betting on tonight, gentlemen? Bats, Fett, Obi-Wan, Vader, or something totally out of left field like Doug Quaid from Total Recall?

 

[franpincho]

"The Tourist" figure reveal tomorrow. More Depp.

Well, since Batman and Ripley are the figures I am most excited about I'm betting it well be anything EXCEPT either of those

 

[YankeesFanboy]

Benny & Joon Depp!

 

[mister_e]

Benny & Joon Depp!

No way. They know the REAL Depp fans want that Gilbert Grape figure

 

[YankeesFanboy]

How dare you! Those who would want a Gilbert Grape Depp over a Benny & Joon Depp have no taste, let alone a soul.

 

[batfan08]

Pfft. Posers. Any self-respecting Depp fan is dying to get their hands on the Don Juan Demarco and fat Brando two-pack:

 

[YankeesFanboy]

Dat Dunaway.

Though I'd rather have a Chocolat Depp, the figure REAL fans have been clamoring for.

 

[batfan08]

Charlie Mortdecai's his defining role, though.
