Hot Toys Keaton Batman Petition

[DiFabio]

I think it will happen. I hope it will happen.

I wish Hot Toys had some kind of QnA. We could just ask them, "do you guys plan on making an '89 Batman figure?".

Sorry to bump this, I just need some reassurance from the guys here that this will happen. Hoping HT will announce it soon if at all after the disappointment of the latest teaser like they did after DX 04 with Superman. What evidence or thoughts have we that a Keaton Bat will happen?

Theres no evidence so much as a presumption that they must know of the demand and they must know it would do well for them.

Having gotten the newer incarnations of Batman and Superman it seems like everyone automatically turned their attention towards the 'classics' Keaton and Reeve. And with Reeve happening it seems like such a no-brainer for HT to make Keaton Batman.

We know Hot Toys do note fans/critics feedback as evidenced by positive alterations to their releases. I can't believe the wave of disappointment we had over the spoon and Batman image didn't come crashing against their doors.
At the end of the day Hot Toys is a business first and foremost so if there is a large demand for '89 Bats and Neo beyond the cries of a few of us fanboys, it will be done...

I e-mailed them again. I expect the usual back.

If HTs does make this happen I'd be the happiest person on the planet. Its such an iconic movie that it just seems like a no brainer for them to make it. Hopefully it will be a DX release but honestly I would buy it no matter what.

What was the spoon? Was Neo announced? Missed that with the news of the batman/MJ releases!

It was some Japanese anime character

I'd buy a Keaton Batman in a NY minute. I wouldn't be able to pre-order fast enough.

Come on hot toys! This is my most wanted release for a 1/6th figure behind the Machete License and the Danny Devito penguin

Good find

 

[Warden]

Haha, a MasterCard moment.

 

[DiFabio]

Seems like just yesterday . . .

It's funny looking at some of the things we posted. I totally called those mouth/faces.

 

[a-dev]

So does anyone suppose this will happen?

 

[Cocoboloboy]

I doubt this will happen now. An HT 89 Bats and Jack Joker are just a pipe dream.

 

[preeny101]

I hope so. Definite grail figure for me. Do it, HT.

Well, it was worth a shot. Still, never too late for a classic license like that.
