Hot Toys has got me thinking there was a Mandela effect going on, due to the amount of times they've released this suit...

[JustinsCollection]

“Waiting for hot toys to come up with something original” absolutely destroyed me 😂

[RynMyers]

I’m good with the last release. He’s on my Batpod as we speak looking badass.

Hot Toys strives for accuracy? That's why they've made this figure so many times. It's a never ending cycle, over and over again. They make small improvements each time in the hopes that collectors will spend their hard earned money for each updated release. I'm happy and content with the DX19 version. This version has some improvements for sure, but I'll stick with what I currently have regardless. Thanks, Dean! As always, I really appreciate the hard work, passion, and dedication! Keep it up! God bless and stay safe!

It's always great hearing your thoughts. If only Hot Toys did reissues of figures we actually want.

[irmanhazeem]

OHHHH BOYYYY. The Master has spoken. I watched this as soon as i finished working out.

[marcelo]

Nothing beats the Begins suit. It may be less comfortable to wear, but its design is perfection.

[zombierepublican]

Why haven’t you made a video about the BvS Batman 2.0 and Armoured Batman?

I wanna know your your thoughts!

[TheTarman]

I definitely like the new cowl and neck more, regardless of accuracy. Old one just looks doofy, not intimidating in the slightest to me

Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this, Dean.

So many versions of this Batsuit. Kinda crazy really. I have the DX12 and the original armory set and that’s it.

[lukeryan]

Literally just gone out and brought a brand new DX19 for a pretty penny then this dropped. However I still prefer the Bruce Wayne sculpt I have at this point until we see the new one in hand.

[ONESIXTHCAVE]

HOT TOYS are flooding the market with DC and Batman especially in a bid to over-saturate it before INART get going properly. also they may be doing it to compensate for smaller edition runs of star wars figures. Bit sad this got all the love when really all of this should have been on the DX19. But hey, thats HT for you.

[ChuckM]

As much as I don't have much interest in this set, I'll say at least their making some tweaks to the suit and making new head sculpts. Just have to wonder where the hell that was for their Batman Begins figure which they re-released a couple years back, and it was a straight up re-release with no tweaks or updates. The original figure was from 2011, and if they weren't going to do a totally new figure, they couldn't have done a new cowl with new face plates? They did the 1/4 scale figure which was a lot better, I would have thought they could have maybe just shrunk those down to 1/6. Maybe it's not that simple, but whatever the case, that figure needed upgrades and got none. That movie just doesn't get the respect it deserves.

I wish you'd make even more of these "my thoughts" videos. Your attention to detail and assessments are always compelling.

I'm all for 2.0's when they offer a decent aggregate of improvements. My annoyances here is that if you want this improved Batman figure, it's locked behind a £500+ paywall. Also, the DX19 is only a couple of years old, surely Hot Toys could have delivered this standard "back" in 2022? The same goes for Darth Maul, even though the 1.0 is what? 4 years old? Hot Toys were knocking things out of the park with the likes of Yondu at that time, the accuracy to its source was so much higher than what the original Maul was. So what is it? A lack of iteration and QC, or Hot Toys knowing damn well they'd rinse collectors once again?

[greatwhite]

Agree, it's the same old again. Think this is more for a market takeover in relation to the batman dark Knight. Inart is coming and they know the dx29 isn't good enough. I am still without a dark Knight and need one to go with the joker. But I'll still wait for inart to show theirs (up for pre order) and then decide that or this. No question, in finally looks great, but unless you're rare like me and don't have one yet, this is very groundhog day. Frustrations with those who have brought many before, including the recent (ish) dx19.

[jasonharrop]

I was wondering if you had seen any social media sites about this figure

[AnthonyStromDesign]

Going to hold out for batman version 10. That one will move on it own and talk like the real batman. And it will have ai.

[maxhammer]

I just cant do this anymore, dx 12 then amoury then dx19, then amoury 2.0, im done 😔

[dangiambrone]

The 2.0 Bane looks great, a genuine 2.0. At least we've had a decade plus to own and appreciate the 1.0 Bane before the new one comes along. That, and it's not locked within a pricey set.

I must say though that the Daft Toys coupled with a Phicen M34/35 looks absolutely fantastic, a tank, even if it isn't entirely screen accurate.
