NECA: 1/4 Batman 1989 Michael Keaton figure

[Psycho]

Who knows they prob will do 89 Joker, Ledger, at TDKR Catwoman before two face...

 

[freshvein]

Interesting if they did ledger as I thought enterbay had the exclusive 1/4 rights

 

[DiFabio]

I bet they go with Jack Joker, TDK Batman and Ledger Joker next as far as Batman goes.


We know they're doing Man of Steel figures.

Enterbay's rights may be for overseas production, with NECA allowed to be a U.S. maker, but also, NECA's will very likely be all plastic, no cloth, so the difference in production materials may create a loophole as well. NECA and EB doing 1/4 figures are very different compared to EB and HT making them, both companies in the same style.

I'll wait and see how they would execute Ledger Joker's long coat (if ever there'd be one). I'm yet to be impressed with NECA's cloth tailoring. Most likely it would be sculpted and be reproduced as pliable plastic but...

Argh. I 'll just wait and see.

 

[Psycho]

Well if its anything like Play Arts Kai. It should be pretty good.

 

[jye4ever]

Holy crap is Captain America impressive in hand.

Glad I got him.

Best $85.00 i've ever spent on a collectible.

 

[jye4ever]

14 thick twist ties to secure this heavy sucker.

 

[DiFabio]

Where did you get it from.

 

[snoop101]

The toilet store...?

 

[jye4ever]

AEC

I had $10.00 credit there.

I was going to have an all mini Batman collection, but screw that, not with $85.00 1/4 figures.

This was my Neca thank you for blowing me away with a 1/4 Keaton, my support for the line so that we get a 24"-26" Hulk and my need for a 1/4 Avengers all wrapped up into one.

The toilet store...?

Bed Bath and Beyond

Beyond stands for collectibles.

Moar

 

[DiFabio]

Alright, now, instead of posing, taking pics and messing with Cap, picture the '89 Batman in your hands.

HOW IS IT?

 

[HeubertMichael]

Congrats, Jye! I wonder what's keeping this from reaching our country. The masked City Hunter and Ram/Warrior Pred 1/4s never reached our soils, too.

I hope this won't happen to the Keaton and West Batmen. Please, NECA.

 

[jye4ever]

I was immediately blown away by the weight and size.

But I can see 89 costume being represented better in all plastic vs this Cap.

His neck and right shoulder are a tad loose.

Shield in desperate need of metallic look.

Decent job hiding the joints.

Boots, gloves and hands are the best part.

Chris Evans is way too skinny to be Cap.

This is a must own if you're an Avengers/Cap/Marvel fan.

While a 1/4 HT or EB figure will of course be better, i'm beyond excited that these are being done at this price point.

Hulk is going to mind **** us all.

89 Batman will be better than this Cap though.

 

[jye4ever]

Did I mention how heavy he is.

Wow, like 1/4 of my old Hulk PF.

I'm afraid to place him on detolf glass.

Sounds good.

Yeah, I think the 89 Batman Costume would look better sculpted in the plastic that NECA uses.

As for their Avengers 1/4 line, I think their Iron Man would make a great display on the shelf given a quality paintjob.

As long as he looks more metallic than this shield.

I bet Thor will also look great.

 

[TragicCracker]

Looks great.... With the photoshop touches... Neca has confirmed on their twiiter that will be doing Villains and focusing on the movies first...

DiFabio's photoshop is utter perfection to Keaton's likeness in B89.

I think the only essentials NECA needs to touch on in terms of 1/4 th movie Batman figures, and what would most likely be the highest movers and ultimately the most important, popular and engaging characters from the films:

Batman (Keaton from B89)
Joker (Nicholson from B89)

The Dark Knight (Bale)
Joker (Ledger from TDK)

All of these would sell like hot cakes.

And MAYBE if we're lucky:

Batman (Bale from BEGINS)
Bane (Hardy from RISES)

And it unfortunately sounds like Bane isn't even a lock, even though he's the most important villain in the series not named the Joker.
