Hot Toys - The Dark Knight - 1/6th BATMAN (New Costume)

[CristiMAN]

Ok, with this version out and with the 2 versions that we got from Joker, what's the chance that we'd get a Dark knight jumpsuit version with an accessory that includes his gun-like bomb-launcher (the one that launches those "sticky" bombs) and of course with a mask having the white visors (or whatever you call it). That would really be great and piss me off at the same time.

I guess my HT TDK collection will be over after I receive what I ordered:

Joker V1
Joker Bank Robber
Batman TDK
Batpod

and believe be... that's a lot of money...

I'd actually wager that the chances are slimmer given all the changes HT's put into this figure. Joker is a full blown alternate, totally different gear and accessories and a chance for sculptural redemption. However with Batman, it'd essentially be the same figure, and you'd have to wonder, if they were to release another, why bother rushing tweaks on this one, why not get it out and then release the improved alternate later, since most of the time HT doesn't seem to care about offering an improved product later. There's always a chance, but I'd say it'll be some time before we see it, I think Two-Face is the last HT TDK figure we'll see for a while.

hey Maul, did you order tdk bats from toys2, i seem to remember seeing one of your posts but cant remember.

I'm gonna e-mail BBTS right now to see if their orders are delayed. I doubt that they aren't at this point.

It makes me wonder about the Iron Man figure, ActionHQ has October 30th listed and Sideshow has Fourth Quarter--which might mean it's actually going to be shipping from Sideshow in December.

Kinda sad, that means I won't be getting a new figure for a while. And then I'll have like 4 figures shipping at the same time--kinda cool at that point but still sad right now.

Yup, I've got him and BR Joker on order with Toys2.

You might want to check, I think he's been sold out and your order would be part of wave 2 that comes out in like December when DCD's shipments will be going.

I submitted an email to them this morning inquiring if they had an estimate.

Gotcha, ya you should be safe. I ordered the first day they had him so it should ship out quick when they get it like Joker and BB Bats did. I'm getting very anxious for this one, lots of image ideas in my head.

i'm pretty hyped about this figure also. anyway, please keep me posted on what toys2 has to say on that email you sent them. also looking forward to you guys' pictures, like i've said before, there are alot of talented people who come up with these amazing pics......and you my friend, are one of them.

Are you sure you ordered the new suit from them? Because they've been out of stock on that for some time. I just checked again and yep, out of stock.

They do however still have some of the 2nd wave of the original suit up for PO.

 

[MaulFan]

Some of my images will be a big imaginative, I don't have any SWAT figures so I'll be using my Endor Troops as SWAT members to capture that feel, I've got enough figures to stand in as gangsters like Maroney and Lau's crew though. As has become a staple of photos for me, Agent Mulder will stand in as some victim for Batman to kick his ass

 

[Nocturne]

Well that pretty much clarifies it. It is delayed.

well at least this stops me wondering why I wasn't e-mailed

my reply seems to be throwing everybody off, in response to Mauls question, i meant i just ordered, meaning that i had only ordered tdk bats from toys2. but indeed, i placed my order for wave 1 tdk bats some time ago. i also checked with toys2 to see if i was wave1 and yes, so were all set to go!

i just called toys2 and they say they will be getting their tdk bats by the end of October.

 

[MaulFan]

Well, financially that's ok with me.

So here's what I'm thinking is the situation and it would make sense.

HT's shipped these out on time, which is why overseas has them, but the boat(s) bringing them to NA distributors and such are going to take longer, and end of October would be about right, seems like it takes a few weeks to come in.

Whatever the flagship Hong Kong main store name is, which I don't know that gets top priority.

I still can't work that one out considering ActionHQ is in Hong Kong too.
