Mars Toys - 1/6 Catwoman (Batman Returns)

[Asta]

I'm sure HT is about to make their move...

...any time now...

Not feeling too impressed at the moment.

 

[Wor-Gar]

The smiling sculpt is way too "pin-up" for Catwoman.

The smirk is the only one to use, with character. But even that sculpt looks a bit too cute and impish.

They need a mean one, a scowl -- ready to attack.

What's with the big strap under her chin? She didn't have that in the movie.

 

[Wor-Gar]

There is an arrow pointing to the strap in the renders, so maybe they are aware and it is to be removed.

I don't think it's a strap but a cut off point for the sculpt so it can pop off the neck for us to swap out the heads. Since she wears a one piece, they need to have a cut line for the neck/suit for the different sculpts. At least that's what I think it is. Curious to see how they handle that.

An unmasked and one with hair strands flowing out the damaged mask would be amazing.

As much as I want the clean suit I do really want the version from the end of the film with her hair coming out of the mask and with various damage to the suit and mask.

Pfeiffer Catwoman polled pretty high for InArt, didn't she? Think we may see their take on her too at some point.

I'm sure HT is about to make their move...

If by sharing that GIF, you mean they'll announce yet another figure from TDK/TDKR, then yeah, probably.

Sdabbs sculpt is superb still better than these renders...

 

[sj2106]

Not too worried about the likeness at this stage. Mars are reworking the Keaton figure after being unhappy with the production sample. Catwoman still probably months from preorder let alone release. Lots of time for them to fix things.

 

[Wor-Gar]

It does look like Mars is way, way behind with Returns development. Their Penguin render is at its earliest stage and, I agree, the Catwoman renders look like Mars is still seeking the right expressions for her.

I don't expect any challenge PO from Mars on Penguin.

hopefully the suit will be made out of a durable material.

probably won't be much articulation considering how tight and form fitting the Catwoman suit is to the body.

What's missing is one with the tongue out

 

[Wor-Gar]

That would look just wrong...

 

[The Buffinator]

An unmasked and one with hair strands flowing out the damaged mask would be amazing.

I'd trust InArt to deliver the quality on a version like this but I'm not there yet with Mars Toys. Heck, I wouldn't trust Hot Toys with this either (i.e., I'd only pre-order from InArt, anyone else I'd have to see the production head first).

 

[Wor-Gar]

When did InArt say they were doing Burton Batman?

What's missing is one with the tongue out

I’d honestly love that. I’d take it over the regular “stoic” head.

 

[Captain Clown]

When did InArt say they were doing Burton Batman?

They didn’t, but Burton Batman characters ranked high on those facebook polls they did last year - along with Tobey Spidey and Terminator. Nothing confirmed, just people voting for what they think they want.

They can hardly even produce their own predetermined slate though, so I doubt they’d happen within the next 5 years - if at all.

 

[TheClient]

When did InArt say they were doing Burton Batman?

On the contrary, I distinctly remember someone asking about it and reporting that InArt would not do anything from the 90s or earlier since there is no appetite for it in mainland China.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Yeah, I thought the old Batman movies were likely no... maybe the new Flash Keaton Batman they would make.

Anyway, I wouldn't hold my breath on Burton Batman or Catwoman or Penguin from InArt.

Be nice just to see the long-promised Legolas and Nazgul...
