Awesome, thanks for posting that interview, the Penguin and then surely Catwoman are coming?

Don’t they usually have to release some product to maintain the license?

One would hope so.
If no one else wants the license, and HT is willing to pay to keep it, I'm sure they can.

Maybe Howard Chan doesn't like Batman Returns. That was his reason to explain why HT didn't make Star Trek figures. Still, the simplest answer as to why some figures don't see the light of day, is because they're a crazy Chinise company. They make weird stuff all the time, like that weird Tim Burton statue based on one of his cartoons, memba that ****? Was it even made?

Catwoman didn't? Sold out in mere months and goes for Hot Toys prices now. Same with that tweeterhead statue and most Returns Catwoman merchandise.
Penguin may or may not be a tough sell, but Catwoman seemed like a no brainer. It's actually sort of ridiculous it hasn't been made. Surely a 1/6 collectible would be as profitable, if not more successful than TDK Two-Face, Stan Lee in a space suit, Qui-Gon Jinn, the fantastic beasts wizard dudes, and that battle angel chick?
Hot Toys is the only game in town for anyone wanting Nicholson Joker collectibles.
I loved how Hot Toys bragged about getting his likeness rights and how many different versions they could do . . . only to make 2 versions (both without any extra portraits or extra looks). They didn't even do any exclusives.
Then you look at the secondary market and the DX 08 and Mime go for $300, 400, $500 and it's like, you paid all that money for likeness rights and aren't interested in capitalizing on your branded "Hot Toys Nicholson" with a Partyman or Mob version? Not even a quarter scale.
Thank god we got 4 versions of the highly memorable and iconic Suicide Squad Leto Joker though.
Glad I got that Catwoman figure. Although I never did get Sewer Penguin or their Batman. I assumed they'd eventually make Returns Batman but seems that can't happen now.
But yeah, criminal - scandalous if you will, that Hot Toys Leto Jokers outnumber Nicholson Jokers.
Sounds good. I don't like arguing either but that wasn't too bad, civil enough, a minor jab at the end. For my part I was expecting to merely preach to the converted, echo chambers can be nice. But it's an open forum.

Thank you for the reply, lets just say we disagree and we can move on. But I will leave you with one final thing—sorry if i got B*tchy and defensive and I really don't want to argue with you guys anymore. Personally i feel we all have lots in common and we all love the movies and collectibles, its just we are all our own individuals and we sometimes collect and think differently. Nothing wrong with that.
Also, I rather talk about happy things than argue. Again, my fault, i started in on it, but from now on if I participate I want to stay more positive and leave the arguing to others.
Sounds good?

Definite demand for a Michelle Pfeiffer Catwoman, amazed anyone would think otherwise. Would doubtless sell out fast and be a sought after aftermarket figure.
Penguin yeah, that's a much harder sell but might do okay if released around the same time as Catwoman.

I bought Neo and John Wick this year, my first HT purchases in about 5 years. I've been slowly moving away from 1/6 scale, so I wouldn't mind a 6'' and 7'' Nicholson Joker. I think it would look cool, but I'd definitely buy one more HT Jack.
Cesar Romero would be happy.

Is this figure only available from Sideshow? Or will it be available at other retailers?
It’s on preorder at Popcultcha. I haven’t checked anywhere else.
I see what you did there.

You’re delusional if you think any appreciable market exists that gives a damn about Michelle Pfeiffer anymore, let alone Burton’s Batman Returns.
Just take a look in the mirror. Both it and you haven’t aged well.
Nice...

If no one gives a damn why does the Tweeterhead Pfeiffer Catwoman go for so much on the secondary market.
She is one of the most requested Hot Toys figures here, across Facebook and YouTube sixth scale channels.
