oversaturation of yet another Ledger Joker and Bale Batman would totally suck prior to the release or near-release of the next movie installation.
I would probably go with the previous Batman movies, a la Keaton, Nicholson, etc in preparation for the next Batman movie. Maybe even do a throwback to the 1966 Batman characters. An HT Catwoman...? non-halle berry though.
You would satisfy the fans/collectors, especially those who still refer to Batman '89 when talking the current Batman movies... you know there's a market.
Then, after the release of thwse figures, the release of the next installation of Nolan Batman characters, which allows for a new villain, a new version of Batman, and potentially additional figures. That would remove the string of Nolan characters (solely Batman and Joker) so that others will not tire of them.
Some will argue case for Marvel's Iron Man, but Mark I, Mark II, and Mark III were fairly distinct in style that differs from Batman TDK vs DX Batman.
my 2 cents,... plus wanting 89 and 66 HT Batman items...
