Any chance NECA will do a 7 inch version of this? I thought Randy Falk said No because Mattel holds the license. But since Mattel's doing a 4 inch Keaton Batman I'm hoping NECA still do.

Still not. They only acquired the 1/4 scale DC rights. So I don't think they will do a 7" line.

One more thing he mentioned on Twitter, next year will be villains in 1/4 scale as well. Plus a Burt Ward Robin. :clap
 
Damn I can't wait to receive mine! Hopefully they'll make more Batman's, I would love a Batman Returns Figure and possibly a Batman Forever figure.........Batman & Robin movie doesn't exist for me:)

I'm sure someday they will. Same thing happened with Robocop and the Endo.

It just takes time.
 
If anybody who has this in hand isn't busy could we get more pics please :)

I'm waiting till Friday before I get it in hand. :\
 
I'm looking forward to the 1st video review of this figure. Past that, I'm eager to get a shipping notice from Gamestop for my order of 4.
 
I've been searching around forums to see if anyone posted any more pics but it doesn't look like it. I saw some chinese forums posting pictures of the 1/4 Dutch and that looks amazing. I'm surprised at how well that figure came out. Nothing on Keaton Batman yet. I really hope they do a new Robocop in 1/4.
 
First video review is up. Figure looks pretty good. I just wish the reviewer was better at posing his figures...hard to get a good idea of just what the figure can do. He also makes the cape look so frumpy!

Looks pretty good, just wish that reviewer was better at futzing and posing lol the belt and cape were annoying me. I'm almost sold, just hoping hot toys announces the returns line soon to keep me from getting this. But that is a great figure for its price

Please post a link to the 1/4 Dutch. I'm very curious how that turned out.
Thanks.
 
Thank you!

NECA's been intense lately! First West, then Keaton, and now Arnold all in amazing 1/4 scale!

Thanks for the video link!

From what I can tell so far I'm impressed, this looks better to me then the hot toys one for many different reasons, I really like how they made the black undersuit under the Armor and the articulation is great. And for the price and size damn! Haha:clap

Oh and I wish the reviewer straighten out his damn leg that twisted knee bugged me
 
I hate that seam along the sides and back of the head . . . and he doesn't even have PERS!

The gash is also pretty bad. It should look more like this. Nice detail though.

Still, the paint apps look clean and neat. As long as the face, eyes, and symbol are clean and nothing breaks, this looks like a solid release. I think properly futzed and posed, this thing will look killer on the shelf. Maybe one of NECA's best 1/4 figures, right up there with the original Robocop.
 
The cape kind of reminds me of a garbage bag, other than that it looks pretty good. I'm looking forward to it. Keaton Batman is always welcome in my collection.
 
Yeah, the cape doesn't look nearly as nice as that original prototype. Especially the stitching seams on the side.

Those little metal rods for extending the cape out are pretty nifty though. In the first video, the guy must have did it wrong. I thought it looked awful. Then in that second video, the reviewer must have put them in properly and it looked just like the movie.
 
Yeah I noticed that too. I almost cringed at the guy in the first video. He acted like he had never handled a figure before in his life. I plan on posing mine with the cape extended. I might as well take advantage of the pose ability, plus I don't have to worry about it affecting the body like with the HT figure. This will look so cool....
