Re: HT Batman 1989 Coming

It's also never had a toy or collectible as far as I know. The Sonar suit is the one that got all the merchandise love.

Yeah, everything from the figures, Statues and Model kits were based on the sonar suit as far as i can remember.

I have seen a resin kit based on the Panther suit but nothing in terms of offical merchandise.

Re: HT Batman 1989 Coming

I would actually seriously buy this figure:

You couldn't pay me to take something Chris O' Donnell related though.

I'd buy it in a heartbeat... for me it's the best screen used Batman suit to date.

Re: HT Batman 1989 Coming

I third that notion, I'd buy it too. It's a really nice suit design.

Hell, if they made Two-Face, Riddler and I don't know, maybe Robin, I'd buy them too.

I'd buy all of those, even Robin ... anything from the first three movies.

Re: HT Batman 1989 Coming

I've always hated the belt on Kilmer's batsuit.

Re: HT Batman 1989 Coming

I was really glad to see a more organic suit again but I sure hated the movies after Returns. I'd probably buy a figure or two from them though. Never Two-Face. Never. Riddler, yes.

Re: HT Batman 1989 Coming

Never Two-Face.

You sure? I'm not a fan of the character, but I've got to admit, that would be a sweet figure. The tailoring on the two toned clothes, the different gloved hands, the burned headsculpt, the weapons.

I'd definitely buy it and I'm not a huge fan of Forever Two-Face. It would just make for a kick ass 1/6 figure.

It might look cool in 1:6. Kinda like Octopus from The Spirit did. I don't think I could look at it and not associate it with the character though.


By the way, have you guys seen all the Sovereign Bats on ebay lately (one of mine included). After only a few a year there's 5 or 6 at a time. That's the end of Shawn's Keaton Bats business for sure.

Re: HT Batman 1989 Coming

No, I agree with Cocoboloboy. As talented as Tommie Lee Jones can be, he sucked in Batman Forever.

The suit looks great without nipple I like Val Kilmer as Batman.

he did not suck, the guy in charge of the character sucked

all he had to say in that movie was: aaaaah oooooh ihihihihi
He was nothing more than a degraded Jack Nicholson Joker

Re: HT Batman 1989 Coming

So....when do we get a preview? HT is going to kill it with this figure! I can't wait!

Re: HT Batman 1989 Coming

On paper, Tommy Lee Jones should be a brilliant Two-Face. Why they made him play it as Nicholson v2 instead of grimmer to contrast Carrey's over the top Riddler is and has always been baffling to me.

Good. Less money he can rip off of people

Re: HT Batman 1989 Coming

Unbelievable how many 1/6 Keaton Sovereign Bats are up for sale on ebay.

Even Coco's selling!

I remember just a year or two ago when everyone just had to have a Sov Bats. He must have made 30-40 for the guys in here alone.

I hope HT does better with Keaton Bats than they did with Indy.

Like an idiot I bought 2 from him (returns and 89) about 2 months before the announcement.

Re: HT Batman 1989 Coming

It is comical seeing all the Keaton Batman figures gone on ebay... two months ago i'd have been all over them.
