1/6 Hot Toys - The Flash - Batman (Modern Suit) Collectible Figure

[Mike86]

I love to speculate wildly: Do you guys think these will be actual figures? They aren't being advertised as 1/6th scale figures, but rather as highly-detailed collectibles. Also while the modern suit clearly has a stand, the other figures appear to not have a stand, just the pedestal. Will these be more akin to the upcoming armory Bruce? I do love that blue/gray look.

I doubt they’ll make the full lineup, but I could see Hot Toys making at least one of them a Toy Fair Exclusive.

If I had to bet I could probably see them doing the blue and gray suit since it looks to be fairly straightforward. Plus I bet a lot of people would buy it because it’s a classic look for Batman.

Justice was simpler in olden times.

Hey, Batman was inspired originally from the grittier pulps; Zorro, The Shadow, the Phantom , who all used guns if they deemed it necesary. Though they could just as easily take goons out in a fight too.
It wasn't until they introduced Robin, who in his first appearance was ironically such a total badass lethal little killer, avenging his parents death, by kicking criminals and mobsters off roof tops, to their death, even somersaulting the Joker off a construction site to his death. It's only Batman who sudenly intervenes, to save him, seeing how brutal Robin is, he has to real him in, and invokes a no kill rule.

I like Batman with a gun. He never should have started questioning his own Justice.

That line-up is definitely better served with 6 inch figures.

A bunch of 1/6 figures on your shelf because they appeared in a background shot as wallpaper seems obsessive, no?

Maybe if the movie had 10 second flashbacks to times he wore those suits, then maybe...

I don't disagree with this. I just want a blue/grey Batman with the yellow emblem and see this as the perfect opportunity.

I prefer him beating goons to a pulp with his fists. Loved scenes and panels showing the effects nightly patrols took on Bruce's body.

I really can't see them releasing an empty suit when they would surely get a lot more orders if it were a complete, posable figure. I just hope they go with a younger Keaton sculpt for these instead of the ancient wrinkled dude again.

I would love to see a proper Returns 2.0 just like the 89 was treated.

I want a kid Bruce with alley accessories.

Cool to see the concept suits fleshed out a bit. Joe Quinones (the artist on the recent Batman '89 comic) designed elements of some of these, and artist Chris Weston did, too. The gray costume was Weston's idea.

Oh that’s fun, I wasn’t aware of that.

Beads. Lots of beads.

Beads. Lots of beads.

And apparently popcorn, too.....

Miller's rendition had left such an indelible image in my mind, I remember (even though they were coming from the movies) the addition of the popcorn just really took me out of it.

You’re absolutely correct. Good thing there are no obsessive types to be found on this forum. Case closed.

I’m in for a blue and grey variant.

You know who else would look good with a blue/grey version? Pattinson’s The Batman.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Does blue, gray and purple count?

 

[Mr. EcKo]

They are probaby going to be 4-inch figures like the mini spidermen line up

Ready to pay for someone to repaint my Battinson these colors when it comes in.

This is making me think twice about the suit. Looking pretty damn good
