Hot Toys MMS 692 + 693 BATMAN (1989) 1/6 scale Batman 2.0

[Xeno Junkie]

I fully suspect we will be getting another Joker. I’m looking forward to it

I wouldn't hold my breath. Why is it that for all the batman reissues that have come out recently theres been no joker? Why did they pick the only frames where jacks face wasn't visible? Jack is really picky with his likeness rights. Neca has been trying to get him for years for a jack torrance to no avail. Idk why hot toys didn't announce a 3.0 joker when the DX19 was announced. I just don't see it happening. It would be nice, but I'm not holding my breath

Nicholson will die this year his family will quickly sell the likeness, 89 Joker will come again.

Also with the computer, all it needs now is for them to finally make the 89 Vault-Armory.

Just give me the damn computers.

And make the armory vault too.

Besides the excellent custom by kyekye (above), did Hot Toys ever actually create/display a prototype for the 89 Vault-Armory, like they did the computer?

Also anyone have clearer shots of the door interior?

Thats a bleak way of putting it

Nicholson’s likeness will 100% be made available again. It’s just a matter of holding out for it.

 

[Starfleet Captain]

I love the likeness. HT keeps getting better.

Hot Toys - Batman (Mater edition)?

 

[jye4ever]

I always wondered what Bale would’ve looked like in the 89 cowl…

Same thing with Ford. We‘ll get a bunch of Han Solo & Indiana Jones stuff once he’s gone.

Why aren't we getting it now? Ford isn't picky with his likeness, hasbro and other toy companies have the rights so why not hot toys? Does he not like them?

There's that theory that Howard Chan refuses to make new Ford figures since he smashed a HT Solo on Jimmy Fallon's show.

Indy 5 is Disney's biggest non MCU non Star Wars movie this year. While I would be pissed they didn't make anything from it, I do think they'll make an announcement in a few months saying they have been granted exclusive rights to make him from both the new film and Raiders.

We are owed a good Raiders Indy. I'm still disappointed in how DX05 turned out.

DX05 is crap. I really hope hot toys makes him again because it could be such a good figure. I've seen the DX05 for as low as 400 AUD and still went "nah, It's a piece of crap" and passed on it

Also back to Nicholson's likeness beast kingdom have ther figures, and a few years back and this year (this year is only rumoured) lego have made him so that would've been expensive. Maybe it's not that they can't afford him, he's just not interested

 

[pug205]

The Beast Kingdom one is interesting as you could argue they didn't get the rights which would explain why it is slightly off (not as bad as their Keaton of course) I would of thought Lego are like Pop Vinyls in that they don't need likeness rights.

Thats actually an interesting argument. I would still think lego absolutely needs likeness rights, it's why some themes have disappeared and never returned. But then again lego don't look like real people so maybe they don't. But knowing Jack, you know he would've wanted a piece of the pie with that lego 1989 batmobile

 

[pug205]

Jack does get a cut of 89 merchandise as part of his contract that is true. Lego don't use a person's physical likeness in their mini figures just the character name and costume which would include make up so yeah they can avoid those kind of fees.

Absolutely

Beast Kingdom do not have his likeness. Just like they don't have Keaton's likeness. The prototype doesn't look like Jack at all.

Those figures are absolutely, embarrassingly awful. Especially for the price. There's no way that Joker is going to be any better than that joke of a 89 Batman figure they released.

I just looked at them again and oh my they are awful. I don't remember them being that bad
