Jazzinc 1/6 Batman 1989 Batwing

Rather than a toy I would say that the HT is more an extra display option to pair with the figure. Like a diorama-vehicle.
Where the Jazzinc is an authentic replica.

Hi Joost, whats your take on potentially doing 2.0s or reissues on your vehicles in the future?

It is a toy. It is literally in the name of their company.

You'd better have a quiet word with Apple.

I owned the HT car for years and loved my time with it; there was no other game in town. Had I still been in the market for 1/6 vehicles I would have upgraded to JazzInc. but that being said, I agree they are two different products and the HT is a beautiful piece on the shelf at its price point.

I have a less favourable opinion on HT vehicles, i own one - the Tumbler and a few parts broke off and it was new. No mishandling or force used, pieces were just brittle. My evaluation is made up of these reasons 1) lack of high quality for the price - wouldn't pay more than $700 for almost all their vehicles, 2) glaring inaccuracies, 3) laziness and doing bare minimum with 2.0s and sequel cars. Just so I don't sound biased towards HT, I believe like Joost said, there's a market for both products but HT and Jazzinc are at extreme ends of the spectrum in terms of quality and price, and if you can pick up a good deal / bargain on a HT vehicle, then I'd say its good value but otherwise I don't think it's worth paying 800+ for their vehicle IMHO (depending on what the vehicle is, there may be that one that is worth it but I'm generally referring to their Deloreans, Batmobiles).

Now, for many Jazzinc prices out customers completely so HT is the only “affordable” option for 1/6 vehicles, however, we’ll have to accept some of those issues I just mentioned, quality being the main concern. I’d like to own a Delorean and I’d probably be ok with its issues if I got a good deal for it.

Apple does not sell fruit.

But Hot Toys does sell toys.

So you agree that the name of the company doesn't necessarily convey what the company sells? And your opinion that Hot Toys sells toys might be wrong?

Another example - my batwing doesn't play sweet sweet jazz music.
