Re: Hot Toys Batman Event Coming Soon - But what does it mean?

A new Batman Begins suit, Ra's al Ghul, Harvey Dent 2.0, and a new Ledger Joker.

Slim chances but those are the figures I've been hoping for.
 
Re: Hot Toys Batman Event Coming Soon - But what does it mean?

I could see Suicide Squad being likely since the film will be out before the event. I could also see them releasing Catwoman and Penguin to go with the older figures and a new Ledger Joker too.

I'm going to go on a hunch and guess these figures will be shown:
Suicide Squad - Joker (AA), Joker (suit), Harley Quinn, Deadshot, Batman (and possibly another Harley)
Burton Batman - Batman, Joker (possibly Catwoman and Penguin)
Arkham City - Batman (possibly Joker and Harley)
TDK - Ledger Joker

I hope they show the BVS Batwing...
 
Re: Hot Toys Batman Event Coming Soon - But what does it mean?

Prolly nothing good.

Probably artist repaints of the Armored Batman (aka those artist Iron Man customs) and some Suicide Squad junk.
 
Re: Hot Toys Batman Event Coming Soon - But what does it mean?

This is their Batman 100 event. It's like the event last year and the year before that was called Avengers 1000% one year and 200% one year.
 
Re: Hot Toys Batman Event Coming Soon - But what does it mean?

I would flip out if we got Schumacher figures. I was heavily into Marvel as a kid, but I cant think of any other property that ran along the different points of my childhood and adolescence like the old Batman movies did.
 
Re: Hot Toys Batman Event Coming Soon - But what does it mean?

I would like HT to make the Batman Forever suit from the battle with riddle at the end, that would be a PO for sure.
 
Re: Hot Toys Batman Event Coming Soon - But what does it mean?

If it ain't at SDCC next week, I'd kiss that **** goodbye.



Sdcc is not a big deal for hot toys. So it really doesn't matter if it's there or not. Hot toys has five shows they sponsor themselves each year, plus AGCHK the weekend after SDCC...an event hot toys it self doesn't attend(ssc does all the hot toys stuff). Plus the pop up stores, events at Toy Sapien/Secret Base/Shanghai Disney....

And even if it's at Sdcc it still doesn't mean anything.
 
Re: Hot Toys Batman Event Coming Soon - But what does it mean?

I am countng the days yet also bracing myself for disappointment for SDCC and Ht's offerings. If they don't have a great showing, Chronicle and DCC will ease the pain.
 
Re: Hot Toys Batman Event Coming Soon - But what does it mean?

Update: I'm going by an infographic here, so this may not be totally accurate, but here goes.

Bale's symbol is a totally different shape. Keaton's 1989 symbol has two extra points along the bottom, and the Forever symbol is close but more vertically stretched. The Clooney symbols are also close in terms of shape, but have a different look (also, nobody would buy that figure). The symbol from Mask of the Phantom (and a lot of comics) is an exact match. So our options are:
  • HT is doing an animated/comic-style Batman (super unlikely)
  • HT is doing a Clooney Batman (more likely than Animated, and also the worst idea ever)
  • HT is doing a Returns figure and screwed up the symbol
  • HT does not want to give any indication of what this is, so they used the recognisable comic logo and will show something else

I am hoping it isn't a Leto Joker, since we haven't even seen him play the character yet, and I don't think it would excite enough Batman fans to warrant a special event.

You are a bit wrong here is the opening of Batman forever logo is idenical....

It's an art show of repainted Batman figures. The end.
