Yes it is. There's a pic someone posted a couple of pages back. I tied one of those clear "rubber bands" around the base of his mask/neck to keep the mask nice and taut. The scarf covers it well.

With HT's comment on their Facebook page, I'd think they'll make an announcement in this Monday's newsletter.

Thanks for the size comparison pics. I was at Toys R Us on Friday on my lunch break and they had 2 of the DC Direct 13" Rorschach figures. I love the character and the figure looked nice so I tried to buy it. When I went to checkout they refused to sell it to me. They said the release date is the 11th and they can sell it to me then. I left empty handed and disappointed. After your pics I kinda want it more.

These were the initial prototypes based on the graphic novel by DC Direct. Canceled because of the planned release of the movie.. I'm hoping they reconsider producing these..
I hope not. Those look like crap. I say they need to make a new attempt at the comic figures. These would have been OK back then, but DCD has gotten so much better lately that they need to start fresh on the comic line.
We are getting a newsletter Monday for sure? How'd you find out about that? HT's newsletters have been random at best.
After seeing the film now, here is what i think the three "announced" figures should come with.
The Comedian
- younger, Vietnam headsculpt w/ removable mask
- older, scared older headsculpt w/ removable mask
- highly detailed Comedian outfit w/ smiley face button
- 2 smiley face pistols
- grenade launcher
- blow torch
- attachable flame
- sniper rifle
- cigar (fits in either head)
- flask
- glass of booze
- many sets of interchangeable hands
* Limited Bathrobe variant w/ much older headsculpt
Nite Owl II
- masked headsculpt w/ removeable goggles
- unmaksed headsculpt w/ attachable mask around his neck
- snow outfit mask (headsculpt?)
- highly detailed Nite Owl outfit
- snow outfit cape and gloves
- owlarang (or whatever his moon batarang is called)
- many sets of interchangeable hands
- Comedian's bloody button, rain smeared
Rorschach
- masked headsculpt w/ removable hat
- unmasked headsculpt
- cloth mask (for holding in hand with unmasked head or half masked eating beans look)
- highly detailed Rorschach outfit with trenchcoat
- grappling hook gun
- cleaver
- can of beans and spoon
- aerosol can
- lighter
- attachable flame
- journal
- flashlight
- Comedian's bloody button
- many sets of interchangable hands

*wipes brow* ok as i promised about a million pages ago when we were talking about the 6 inch rorschach i finished my custom job. we were on the topic of how bad the articulation was and that he couldnt stand up without that stupid stand they packaged with him. so i decided i wasnt going to let this figure go to waste.
here are some pictures of what i came up with. if you want an in depth explanation of what I did i can post that as well.
a funny thing about the blood stain. as i was doing this modification i sliced my thumb with an exacto knife. and as i watched the blood drip out of my thumb and into my palm i thought it would be pretty cool to actually put real blood on his coat. i may actually go back and paint a more accurate blood stain but i thought it looked pretty cool.

Let's hope its not bust or mini cosbabies. Cause that would really blows.
Yes that sounds good. Although I have yet to see the movie, been delayed for one more month 
How would the removeable mask work though. Since the one that the spirit is sporting on isn't removeable. Besides, wouldn't it look too thick if they are removeable?

I need figures from Watchmen. DCD ones are overpriced and crappy. Even if HT only does one figure, as long as it's Rorschach, then I'll be happy.

DCD's mask is removeable and doesn't look to big in pics (and things usually look worse in pics than in person). The mask is thicker that the Spirit's anyway. Plus the Spirit's mask didn't come off in the movie but the Comedian's did. I'm actually really looking forward to a Comedian figure, almost as much as a Rorschach.

Thanks!
I'm definitely hyped about a Watchmen announcement. Hopefully we get it soon.
Any pics of the DCD ones?
Yeah, same here. Cause the comedian come with a lot of accessories. And a cigar too

Thanks.
But I noticed that these doesn't have those 'eyeshadow' make up that the comedian is wearing in the movies; just like batman.

To be fair, it is DCD. I'm sure HT would find a way to get the mask to have the eyeshadow makeup included with it. Its only done in real life so the actors can actually see out of the mask, a figure won't have that problem.
But then again, HT's watchmen figures are based on the movie. So they have to be movie-accurate; not comic accurate.
This is why the HT tdk and oc batman still has those eyeshadow makeups.
