Holly S! How much is this gonna cost? Looks amazing.

[trebleshot]

I'm going to guess somewhere in the neighborhood of $350-400.

Still, it does look amazing. Kinda funny how that's becoming old hat for Hot Toys.

$300-400

lol....try $500-600.

SS is selling it for $629. BBTS has it at a lower price of 579.99...

I'll end up going with BBTS, but it's not that much of a savings once you incorporate shipping. Good thing this won't be shipping untill May 2013.

I'm hoping Sideshow's new 1/6 DC line looks good next to this. I'd rather have a comic inspired, or Arkham inspired Batman than a Keaton any day. Still though...Keaton Batman looks awesome. I'm having a hard time deciding whether to snag him up or wait and see Sideshow's offerings. The Batmobile is a must regardless. I just don't want a cartoonish 1/6th figure next to all the life-like hot toys. Hope SS's 1/6th line can capture everything about the comic and digital models while giving them realistic skin textures, clothing, etc, etc.

Movie Masterpiece 1/6 Scale Batmobile - 1989 - Batman Batman (1989) $579.99, thing of beauty. but damn expensive.

*sniff* It is so beautiful..

I wonder if the shield, is the same as the oldschool figure where it was a thin plastic shell you just placed over top of the regular batmobile? I can't see it actually changing and locking up, mind you for $500 it should!

Holy hell, I've seen actual cars sell for that.

[thechris]

That's not that bad of a price. I mean it's 1/6th scale. That thing's gonna be huge.

Yeh but I guarantee the car wasn't a batmobile! haha life size batmobiles are like 40-100k+. $500ish isn't that unreasonable consider the figure alone is like $2-300 range, hell the new Christian Bale headsculpt commands almost $100 alone on ebay. To the market this is targeting this is semi chump change, to be honest. 2-3 Hot toys figures costs more then this, so to a diehard batman fan, especially of that movie, I can't think of a better piece to get, not to mention, how GOD damn bad ass that would look in a display case with a diorama built around it lol.
