That emblem looks like it was designed for a bigger doll.

They will wait till the week of the film's release to post a tease and the first figure which will be Keaton for sure.
Any Batman they release from the film will sell out, they always do.
As for the film quality, we will have to wait and see of course. I love Keaton too but don't really think it will feel like a genuine continuation of his films - more a weird "what if" side story if that makes sense.
While it is a low bar, I am confident this film will be more fun and better than pretty much anything DC has put out since 2012.

Hot Toys always seems to have more love for MCU than DC… ScarJo at least got her BW figure in advance, but Sasha only got a Barbie…

All the interesting DC figures are coming from other companies these days so I say let HT continue giving all their attention to the diminishing returns that is the MCEU as we look to be getting looked after nicely without them

I think the Flash’s costume looks cool, much better than the Justice League outfit in my opinion.
I don’t have a version of Flash in my collection, so I’m going to pick this up wether I like the movie or not. Although a blockbuster film will almost certainly help to sell figures, these characters are bigger than any individual movie.
I think HT will sell plenty of figures from this movie. Black Adam was an abysmal film and it seems as though two versions of that character are selling well, so there is that.

What diminishing MCEU returns?

Reduced box office, meddling phase 5, overly complicated connectivity through films and TV shows leading to audience apathy, etc etc
Marvel peaked with Endgame in terms of Box Office power and cultural impact. It is their Star Wars OT and yes they will continue to have highs and lows but they are now in the PT and ST eras. They will never match that period again.

Probably close to what we'll be getting from Hot Toys. Personally wish they had at least kept the yellow belt. It being so black top to bottom makes it look really bland. Needs that yellow belt to break it up.

Yeah but is it realistic to expect Marvel to continue with the same incredible momentum without bumps in the road and having some
content that is better than others? Obviously with more and more properties and sequels etc. the odds of failure or disappointing storylines or box office results become more likely. Which should result in reassessments and adjustments.
Over the last 15 years or so DC has put out much less content than Marvel and arguably has not come near the “success” Marvel has had overall. I mean look GOTG 3 has already made over 300million and the weekend isn’t even over.
In any event, I am not a DC guy, but think the Flash film looks promising and I hope it does well. I will wait until I actually see the movie before I **** all over it.

Great job, found out this video too:Probably close to what we'll be getting from Hot Toys. Personally wish they had at least kept the yellow belt. It being so black top to bottom makes it look really bland. Needs that yellow belt to break it up.

Negative thoughts on the movie itself and the costumes aside this is such a great job.
Looks like the cowl of the 89 suit with the body of the Returns suit.......Probably close to what we'll be getting from Hot Toys. Personally wish they had at least kept the yellow belt. It being so black top to bottom makes it look really bland. Needs that yellow belt to break it up.

I think we'll get both versions of flash and we already know we are getting the Keaton Batman, So I think it will be easy for HT to do one for this movie with an older looking Michael Keaton sculpt.
I'd like to see them make Faora this time, assuming she is in it.

A Foara would be awesome! I was so disappointed when HT didn't make her, she was so cool. I've read she is in the movie from someone who says they saw it and she's listed in IMDB, I just hope it's not reused footage and she gets some new fight scenes.
