Had to preorder this for my Batman collection. You can never have too much Batman, especially a different version, a different suit, and a different take.
We should be getting it any day now I feel like. I hope it shows up on time. Will make waiting on The Batman figure a bit easier.Lots of interesting opinions going on and I can't wait to see the movie tomorrow. I might get this guy if I enjoy the movke but for now can't wait to get the Dx19 in a few months hopefully
Lol the whole movie was laughable. Absolutely hated it. I don’t care it’s probably the worst Batman I’ve ever seen. Absolutely despise itLol! I remember watching TDKR in the theaters. When Bale said that "Where is it?" line and sounding so similar to TDK "Where is she?", a bunch of us started laughing at it.
I mean it could've been possible for them to do it. If I remember correctly, the broken cowl that Bane came with had little water droplets/spots on it
If they released one as, like, a movie promo edition, I would buy the **** out of that ****.Yeah they should have just gone ahead and created one extra "Rain-Soaked Version", since that's how he looked in most of the movie anyway.
Weird call out on the "personality" divide since Pattinson's batman and wayne literally act the same. It's wonder how no one figures out who he is.
I think it’s an interesting year 2 starting place for the character but I think the story would be better served long term to see him grow out of that and use his money and power to help people beyond beating up criminals. It seems thats something they’re already foreshadowing.That's one of the things I liked most about the film.
The fact that his Batman and his Wayne are exactly the same character drives home the point that Batman isn't a persona he adopts, it's just who he is. When he's out in public, he's still this reclusive, unkempt weirdo because he hasn't yet realized that Wayne is the character he needs to learn how to play.
As for nobody figuring out it's him, this is why I love how low-tech all his gear is. Off the shelf police equipment and an old Dodge Charger for a Batmobile means that far more people could potentially be Batman than just the one guy in the city who can afford his own Bat-shaped plane.
Maybe that explains why Hot Toys went all out on their version ? I mean 3 versions, with moveable eyes, multi adjustable base, standard base and deluxe base, headsculpt and 3 faceplates, wired cape etc etc.I don't see why they wouldn't do The Batman. They still might be a ways away from revealing figures and might want to see how The Batman is received first.
That's my strategy as well. If the Bat-bike is released, any saved money with the standard Battinson can go towards the bike.I just had got an email from SS that my order for Batman (Deluxe) was cancelled by mistake, thankfully my NRD and rewards points where fully refunded. I had to call and make sure it was though, should get the refund back later this week. But as I was adding the figure to my cart again I realized as cool as the deluxe is I'm not really going to use the wing suit, the explosive gun isn't something seen in film so no big deal. Only thing I'd want is the dio but I might just be happy to have him standing next to the batsignal or on the batbike. So I'll probably get the standard to save a bit of money.
I'm going back and forth with myself. Lol I really do like the deluxe base as I can probably do the Jim lee art pose. But I don't want to spend almost $490 in total for it. Idk I think I'll pick the standard in the end but seriously the prices on him has shot up considering this figure is most wanted.That's my strategy as well. If the Bat-bike is released, any saved money with the standard Battinson can go towards the bike.
I also prefer some symmetry with display bases. So don't need the deluxe base either (although not saying it isn't cool).

How'd you get it at $648? That's the price without GST. Did you use pennies to get 10% off?As Popcultcha finally has the various sets up for preorder. I think I’ll just go for the entire set including Bat Signal as it’s not priced that badly at $648 AUD shipped (about $475 USD).
Yes I think the prototype pics have a case of Thunder thighsWe should be getting it any day now I feel like. I hope it shows up on time. Will make waiting on The Batman figure a bit easier.
The figure they used to solicit it felt very prototype-ish. I wonder if it will see any improvements.
I thought it was said in the movie when Batman came back it was the first time he'd been seen it eight years.This isn’t explicit. Batman could have easily been active for 5-8 years before Rises. By the time of rises he’s no less than 40 at youngest and the ending of Rises is completely open ended so who knows how long he was Batman total.
They said eight years ago was the last “confirmed” sighting of the Batman. There are some things that hint he was active though if not confirm it.I thought it was said in the movie when Batman came back it was the first time he'd been seen it eight years.
