Hot Toys THE BATMAN -1/6 Batman / Batman deluxe / Batman + batsignal set

I hope they put magnets in the shoulders to hold the cape in place like they've done on Moff Gideon. That is a smart upgrade.

I hope so! This hobby needs innovation. Why are we still using pegs? Sometimes they break and are a pain in the ass to get heads and hands on and off. Magnets on bases (no more crotch grabbers) and for heads/hands/feet (no more pegs). And every head should have moveable eyes so we can get even greater poses with more expression. But now I’m just wishing for too much lol

That's InArt talking.

I think that the delays in delivery have hurt InArt a great deal here. Lots of people (myself included) already jumped on the Jazzinc batmobile, so those are all most likely lost opportunities for them. Also, TBH, this batman is very impressive. Since I've already got this on pre-order with sideshow, the InArt version is going to have to be both stellar and price competitive to make me jump. I don't personally see owning two versions of this figure.

Still, very grateful for the choices.

We aren’t InArt’s target market to be fair, their license is for China. I don’t know how popular JazzInc is in Asia so can’t comment on that.

You’d pay a fortune for the InArt Batmobile anywayp, shipping something that size from China/HK aint cheap.

Those magnets will add another 80 dollars to the price tag.

Don’t you mean wham bam thank you Batman?

I'm glad Timewalker still had a preorder open for the deluxe, these additions are great. I don't need rooted hair for this figure, so all of this works for me.

Anyone saying Hot Toys is not under pressure and reacting to it at this point is delusional.

The Batman update with additional stuff and a tease for the Vulture directly after 2 other companies (way after Joost at JazzInc started it all).

I'm loving it !! In the end it's us who wins with choice and better products. Thankyou InArt !!!

We also need to support them as well to maintain the competition !!

Unfortunately this still seems limited to just the very few figures that another company decides to make their own version of. I don't see HT making changes to how they do things across the board just yet.

The only way Inart can beat this is if theirs plays moody Nirvana music.

I dont like magnets, it will fix the hand into a position not allowing you to adjust it to the specific pose =/ (E.g. if you want a dicast sword parallel to the ground no way is not gonna resist it)

Johnny Utah · May 23, 2022

It's doable. Geffen Records is owned by WB. They could add even the first minute as a sound chip like RoboCop.

Luisenigma1 · May 23, 2022

I'll still be getting InArts Batman. But If I was going to just get this figure alone I definitely would be satisfied with it being the sole figure for The Batman film.

I think HT wrist pegs need to be made in a different way and with more durable plastic so it doesn't break or ever loosen. I think it's very doable as I've seen other companies do it.

WolfBoy · May 23, 2022

This will be the “the Batman” to get imo. Even if InArts is excellent, it won’t come with this much stuff for this price.

If anything one thing I like about Sideshow is having a peg in each hand instead of keeping the peg in the body. When breaks happen it's always the part breaking off in the hand and not the other way around. If they figure a more permanent way to keep it inside the hand it'd work better.

Exactly this. And HT still only give us 2 extra wrist pegs no matter how many hands the figure comes with.
