Missed opportunity for a Batman Returns Batman, considering they released a very similar version of this 89 Batman in the Batmobile deluxe pack. Would’ve also liked a BvS regular Batman or at least the regular JL Batsuit Batman instead of the same Tactical suit version too
@@RandomHero_85 the suit is sleeker and smoother, it forgoes the bat skin texture on the first 89 suit, the overall suit has a more angular armor-like design while the 89 suit has a more anatomical or muscle suit type look. The eyebrows on the Returns cowl look a bit more exaggerated and angular, the long bat ears are straighter while the 89’s cowl ears are a bit curved inward, and the Returns suit uses Air Jordans for the boots while the 89 suit uses Nike’s. The gloves on the 89 Batsuit are a bit more padded and armored at the gauntlets while the Returns suit just had simple gloves without armor padding. Probably the biggest difference is the bat symbol on the Returns suit is reverted to the classic Batman yellow oval type emblem without the extra scallop points on the bottom which the 89 suit had.
@@dHuntersReviews Batfleck Problems!!! I also did a head swap. if you're gonna rewatch ZSJL, he always looked with the goggles on, unless you had the platinum version or unless it is JOSStice League like on the 6 pack. So I head swap the 2021 JL Head to 6pack Body, (since it has better paint apps) and use the 6pack head to flashfleck body
The pre-order was sold out within 1 hour in Europe. Got mine 2 weeks ago and mannnnnn it felt like it was Christmas when I opened the box. What a Treat! All of the figures are Top-Notch 🤩🤩
Great review! I liked the Batman Forever figure the best. Not a fan of Clooney as Batman, so I would use that one getting crushed by Bane in a stop motion. Also, I agree that Batfleck needs a Batman V Superman suit (My personal favorite). Do it, McFarlane!!
I’ve seen another reviewer swap the Keaton neck peg with the rebirth neck peg to lower the head to give it that thicker neck look. Not perfect but looks a little better imo.
Hello dHunter ! Great review ! If the 89 Batman figure had a thicker neck it would blend in much better . Kilmer , Clooney and Affleck all have the 1 piece cowl and the figures look great . Saw a custom with a 89 Batman head swap with the Flash Batman and what a difference. What drives me really "batty" is the emblem not being painted correctly . Mcfarlane did a nice job with the Flash Batman emblem . Looking forward to the Batman Forever / And Robin figures due to come out . BVS BATMAN PLEASE !
I think it's a trade-off between action figure playability and movie accuracy (though I suspect that at the price range, this set is going to be bought by collectors for display, rather than kids for play), so the compromise has to be there. I agree they could have done a Hush-style head on the Keaton, but the ab-crunch doesn't worry me. I was wondering if there's any way to get that Neca head onto the McFarlane body... The Kilmer and Clooney figures look good, though there's something not quite right about the face on the Clooney. Batbale is excellent IMHO, but like you, I'd really love the Batman Begins suit. I have the version of this that came with a moulded plastic cape, and I'd love to have the fabric version (which I have on the 6" version by Mafex). Also hard agree for the standard suit Batfleck, though I *do* like the tactical suit. I have the original release of the Battinson figure. I like the suit and the home-made feel it has, but this version of the figure looks better than the original (not least getting rid of the side eye), and thank God they've dispensed with the karate hand! The paint job on the face looks better, too - at least in your video. The original paint job looks like he has hamster cheeks. Maybe it's the lighting; I need to check on my figure. Good to have a review of the whole set!
I appreciate your thoughts They do break down to $20 a figure so it’s cheap from that point of view I might have something to show you soon Neca McFarlane hybrid
If the Batman & Robin wave sell well, I wouldn't be shocked if we did see the Batnipple suit. Hopefully with Two Face and Riddler. Though I don't know if Jim Carey's face is a cheap thing to obtain. I love this set, got it on the 19th and...Man what an upgrade! Cloth clothing is my thing, I love it love it love it. The ability to move it, flip it, etc. Plus, the Bat-Signal is amazing! I know some folks would have liked alternate hands, some bat-gadgets, me too, but the Signal is too iconic! Also, I'm pretty sure the backpeg is going to be for rubber capes, though that's just guess. Crossed fingers we get the balaclava Bale Batman!
The hole is 100% for rubber capes The bat signal sucks It’s an awesome display piece, but the actual light up feature sucks Wish they did that better Interchangeable symbols is a dream come true But they don’t shine for shit!
I passed on the 3 recent movie releases, glad they're all improved and with fists. The original Pattinson head was too low, it sits at a normal height now. The Neca Keaton head is just too big in proportion with the body, it's like a guy wearing a helmet of Keatons cowl. Also, I wouldnt have noticed the holes from the missing plastic capes on my copies, I'll be using figure stands for those. I think I'll look into adding wires for the capes, and waiting on someone to potentially mod the signal to be brighter.
Here’s my ranking of the six Batman figures in this video 1989 Batman 10/10 Kilmer Batman Forever 7/10 Clooney Batman & Robin 5/10 Bale Batman 10/10 Affleck Batman 1/10 Pattinson Batman 10/10
I think the 89' version looks more like batfleck. I don't know but there's a creepy mistake between the credit bureau and exchange within the McFartlane company community. I think a head swap with the page puncher would work better. It would look like a more grizzled , messed up look. Like 25 or 6 to 4😮
good review bro I admit, your passion makes me doubt how much I love Batman, D even if I was rich, I would not buy those... and what? they can t grab cat litter? oh come on! all they can do is punch like a cheap Chinese figure? the Joker must be behind this, it s laughable! I d only pick vehicles from movies once I have one like yours, and maybe the armour, scuba.... the Bat signal is pretty cool, but yeah, lenses will do much better Riddler ; ha, ha Batman, you never figured someone would get you right at the signal did you? Bat ; no, I thought they d figure that it s bright and hot, so.... dangerous! swings the signal straight on to the Riddler... ; aaaaahhhh! it burns! IT BURNSSSSS!!!! Bat ; I knew you were clueless Riddler! so now you know... good show bro
@@dHuntersReviews ha, ha, I guess you don t mind as much since you have so much to care about already, I m a lot more limited, like, all pieces count since I have little, you can afford some waste, and just have it for looks. I get more regrets if I do that, I can be patient and wait for a better version, Joes are my essentials, THEY need to be flexible to be proper figures more, so, I m good in any case
The 89s likeness is vague at the very best... from neck down,yeah bodys good. But the cowl,the head. Lazy mcfarlane as usual. Its lime they find designers that have bever seen the 89 batman movie at all. Like there going by what someone told them he loomed like
Here's a weird philosophical question, should we consider the Batsignal in this set to be an extra figure or an accessory? Now I know what you're thinking, "Mad Man you're a dumb ass of course it's an accessory the Batsignal isn't a character" but hear me out a second the Batsignal has it's own points of articulations, action feature, and it's own accessories! Fine I'm still a dumb ass but I think I'm on to something here 😂
Been waiting for this review. Im so impressed with the val kilmer batman. Love batman forever.
He’s the best one here
You go all out in this hour long review 👍
I love this channel because it has comparisons for days!
Yessir long ass video
All out
18:52 - "Look at this... ...Michael Motherfucking Keaton!" 🤣🤣🤣 one of the many reasons you're my favourite Batman Collector to watch on TH-cam hahahahhahaah
Yessir
Thank you
Missed opportunity for a Batman Returns Batman, considering they released a very similar version of this 89 Batman in the Batmobile deluxe pack. Would’ve also liked a BvS regular Batman or at least the regular JL Batsuit Batman instead of the same Tactical suit version too
I haven't seen that film in years. How does the suit differ from 89 Batman?
@@RandomHero_85 the suit is sleeker and smoother, it forgoes the bat skin texture on the first 89 suit, the overall suit has a more angular armor-like design while the 89 suit has a more anatomical or muscle suit type look.

Yes plz
Missed opportunity in general. We could’ve gotten a Begins Batman and BvS suit too but mcfarlane was lazy
It should’ve
I believe they are coming though
been waiting for this review, other reviews are out there, but yours was the one I am waiting for. got mine few weeks ago.
Awesome I hope it did not disappoint
@@dHuntersReviews Batfleck Problems!!!
I also did a head swap. if you're gonna rewatch ZSJL, he always looked with the goggles on, unless you had the platinum version or unless it is JOSStice League like on the 6 pack.
So I head swap the 2021 JL Head to 6pack Body, (since it has better paint apps) and use the 6pack head to flashfleck body
Even in the Joss Whedon version I don’t think he ever has the goggles off in this suit. Goggles down is my ideal version.
Killer presentation!
Thank you sir
A special level of excitement by dHunter in this video
Yessir!
Nice video man
Thank you sir
The pre-order was sold out within 1 hour in Europe. Got mine 2 weeks ago and mannnnnn it felt like it was Christmas when I opened the box. What a Treat! All of the figures are Top-Notch 🤩🤩
They are awesome
Great review. Can the hands on Keaton and Pattison figures be swapped out for the hands of the previous releases of these figures by mcfarlane?
Yes
Previous Keaton with batmobile had 2 fists also though
@@dHuntersReviews OK thanks so much. Love your reviews.
Thank you!!!
Great review as always! I wanted to ask if you can try to swap Bale's fists with AK Batman' hands since that figure badly needs fists.
I will have to check on that later when I am at home
Amazing video thank you so much
Thank you for watching!
Rooftop displays are elite 🔥 where did you get ‘em?!
The top of my bookshelf GCPD?
Or my extreme sets buildings
I’m pretty sure it’s the GCPD if I’m not mistaken 🥸
When I showed Batman with Gordon?
I been saying that head and neck thing bout the 89 since it came out. Glad somebody finally said it in a video
Could’ve been great, instead it’s simply good.
I had given up on getting this due to resale prices, but the local crackhead hooked it up for 80 bucks. Box beat to shiiitttt but sitll happy
@@rustyshackelford5892 that’s awesome
Great review! I liked the Batman Forever figure the best. Not a fan of Clooney as Batman, so I would use that one getting crushed by Bane in a stop motion. Also, I agree that Batfleck needs a Batman V Superman suit (My personal favorite). Do it, McFarlane!!
Need regular Kilmer suit too!
How do you open up the bat signal to change out the image
Gotta pry it off, just keep working on it.
I’ve seen another reviewer swap the Keaton neck peg with the rebirth neck peg to lower the head to give it that thicker neck look. Not perfect but looks a little better imo.
Interesting, I should try removing the peg altogether
Waiting to see someone mod the neca Keaton headsculpt on the McFarlane body. Bet that would look great.
I’ll have something to show you soon
@@dHuntersReviews sweet! Looking forward to it! ...next to a golden apple or chicken drumstick 😹
Hehehe
Like 👍 #151. DHunter! You are sure I can sit through this one hour and 3 minute video? Hold on! Let me go get my booze 🍸 and come back.
Cheers!
Damn I have an extra loose Neca Keaton in storage.. if we get a single release of McFarlanes version I may attempt a head and belt swap
It’s not as simple as you’d think
The head and neck are one piece on Neca, not on McFarlane
Someone made me a custom and I did a video on it
What do you do for a living besides TH-cam in order to purchase as much figures as you do, just wondering
I work a lot
great video!!!
Thank you sir

They could be better but I still like them
BvS plz
I like your videos
Thank you
I swapped the Neca head to the Macfarlane body-just cut the emblem off the Neca cowl
I’d like to do that too
Just don’t wanna ruin my Neca figure

I’ll just wait for Kilmer and Clooney separately. It definitely is cool to get the bat light.
I expect they will all get single releases with plastic capes over time
I use the Batman from the Batmobile 2 pack as my Batman Returns Batman. Since he has more of a gold logo and belt.
Fair enough
If the Batman & Robin wave sell well, I wouldn't be shocked if we did see the Batnipple suit. Hopefully with Two Face and Riddler. Though I don't know if Jim Carey's face is a cheap thing to obtain.

The bat signal sucks
It’s an awesome display piece, but the actual light up feature sucks
Wish they did that better
Interchangeable symbols is a dream come true
But they don’t shine for shit!
I agree the cowl is part of the look for Keaton batman
Big time
Preferred the Mcfarlane 1989 vs the Neca version. Kinda stopped toys a bit until this came out and made me start getting toys all over again.
Nice!
i think they should have released the stands with each movies logo, just to make this slightly more exclusive
That would be a good idea!
😮😮😮
shocked?
Hope the do a robin with matching suit
Forever version?
i just want the bvs and returns suits 😫
I want BvS and batman begins
And forever regular suit
All their original suits
I passed on the 3 recent movie releases, glad they're all improved and with fists. The original Pattinson head was too low, it sits at a normal height now. The Neca Keaton head is just too big in proportion with the body, it's like a guy wearing a helmet of Keatons cowl.

I think I'll look into adding wires for the capes, and waiting on someone to potentially mod the signal to be brighter.
Even if you brighten it it’ll still be way too big on the ceiling
If they made the 89 figure fully movie acurate it would look almost identical the the Neca one.
Agreed
Yep, they look awesome.
So cool!
I like cloth capes better I hope he does more
Sometimes I like cloth capes more sometimes I like plastic caps more. It depends on the execution.
I'm thinking the NECA Keaton head and cowl on the McF Keaton would be the ideal
Agreed
Awsome batcave
Yessir
It’s still available
And it shuts away for storage
Here’s my ranking of the six Batman figures in this video
1989 Batman 10/10
Kilmer Batman Forever 7/10
Clooney Batman & Robin 5/10
Bale Batman 10/10
Affleck Batman 1/10
Pattinson Batman 10/10
None deserve 10/10
Why Batfleck so low?
Very cool
Yessir
Same thing I didn't like about this Keaton batman. The flash cowl looks way better
Yeah
Could’ve easily done it differently
I think the 89' version looks more like batfleck. I don't know but there's a creepy mistake between the credit bureau and exchange within the McFartlane company community.

It’s a deluxe accessory
Did anyone order this set from Target? It’s due to release on Oct 1 from them. What about Gamestop? They’re showing release date on Sep 21.
Did it ever ship?
