@@J0r-El Affleck was a good Batman, especially in the first movie he did , it's just a shame they gave him bad movies , but he was a good Batman . All personal preference really
@@antstockley I think he was too. You've probably heard this already that Ben needs his stand alone Batman film. There needs to be redemption because with all the effort he put into BVS, he didn't deserve bad storytelling from the studios.
This Batman suit still looks ahead of its time. Jose Fernandez was and still is a costume sculpting genius. Its no wonder he went on to make Batman and Wonder Woman's suits in BvS.
I know that people have bashed Val Kilmer’s version of Batman but I’m a big fan of his take on Bruce. There’s a quiet subtlety to it that I find fascinating. I love how these figures look too but a Panther Suit figure would have been an amazing sight to see
i never thought val was a bad batman i think the main problem with the movie for me was tommy lee jones and jim carrie, they were terrible and i always hated them in the movie, everyone else was fine imo.
@@gnome-ski Carrey saw what Frank Gorshin did and said, "I can do that times 11." Tommy Lee Jones saw what Jack Nicholson did and decided to do that dialed up and tried to compete with Carrey and hence why they both sucked in their takes on the characters, especially in Jones's case. The fact it came out later that Jones hated Carrey is even funnier.
@@gnome-ski Really? I mean i respect your opinion, but i disagree. I love them in the Movie, sure they weren't the best written. But they had awesome acting and they were so entertaining.
Batman Forever is far from my favourite Batman film, but the character designs lend themselves to Toys more than any other film. This is one of the coolest Batman figures that Hot Toys have ever released!
From a technical standpoint, the suit material will probably not hold up, the neck connector was tough to remove when posing or swapping the eyes, and not the best articulation or split-cut boots...BUT I don't care, I still love them! Really fortunate their hands are interchangeable. The Sonar suit in particular is ripped right from the film, he shimmers so damn well.
I have the set of these two and it's an incredible looking pair of figures. I love the movie and these two are ripped right out of the screen in their accuracy and presence. The material doesn't seem to be as fragile as people are making it out to be. I don't see any problems posing them reasonably.
I pretty much have the same feeling you have. I know it's not the greatest batman suit but looking at them just gives me all the nostalgic feels when I was a kid I wanted these toys so bad and was able to get robin and I remember just feeling like a million bucks when I brought him home and for this reason alone I'd would love to have these hot toys in my collection.
@@JustinsCollection They're not honest opinions..They're brainwashed sheep. Even you claim to love this movie, but the internet crazies have shamed you for it. My point is, when the movie was released it was an all around success. Can't take that away from it. Even if they try.
As The WHO sing in their song 'Eminence Front' "people forget"...BATMAN FOREVER was the #1 HIGHEST grossing film of 1995, with its domestic box office of $184,031,112. It was a massive box office hit! 🦇💲💲💲
These two figures are beautiful! I have them both. I hope Hot Toys gives us the Forever "panther" suit and Carrey Joker, Returns Catwoman and Penguin, and B&R Mr. Freeze as well... those would all be exceptional figures, IMO.
you'd think that they would have shared some of Batman's accessories with poor Robin. These are a couple of very cool looking figures, those colors pop. As for Robin's "assets," I think there's somewhat of an optical illusion with the color contrast between the red and green emphasizing those said assets. 😆😉
I’m one of those few crazy folk who only got Robin instead of both! I’ve always been a Robin fan since I was a kid, and like you this was my Batman movie growing up. And since space is incredibly limited I am determined to have no more than one of the same character. My Batman spot has been claimed by the suicide squad version, which is just the BvS suit with some tweaks and that’s my favorite bat suit in general 😅 Thanks for the review though! I wish Robin came with some accessories…maybe just maybe they’ll make the black and red suit from Batman and Robin
The gadget that you didn't know about is a different type of grapple gun. You see it in Batman Forever on the gadget wall when he puts the sonar suit on. I don't think it's used in this film though. However you do see it being used in Batman & Robin. A scene where Robin and Batgirl are falling and she uses this device to save them both as Robin's failed. It's either called the grapple pincher or Batgirls grapple.
Yes! I was waiting for this review! As someone who tries to only collect MCU figures, the idea of having all the different Batman live action figures on a shelf showcasing the evolution of the outfit over the decades is really appealing. I’ll probably regret not getting Throbin down the line, but right now, I only want the Batman. Plus after watching Val Kilmer in Top Gun Maverick and learning more about his condition, I wanted to get this as a sort of tribute Edit: Holy crap, is Michael Keaton really that short? 😂😂
I was 7 years old when Batman Forever came out. I'm not crazy about the film now as much as I was when I was a kid. As an adult, I couldn't pass up on this for nostalgic purposes and also how well Hot Toys made these figures. They look 😍 fascinating. I can't wait to have them. It looks so good that I watched the movie again and enjoyed it for what it was. It was made for kids! Might get that Batmobile too. Like you said, this was a surprise from HT. My bad for writing so much. Pretty thrilled. Great review. 👍
It’s nice to see Batman forever finally get some love. I do genuinely enjoy the movie. It’s not the best but it’s very fun and has a good story. Hopefully more merch from the movie may come down the line
Love these figures. I was 11 when this movie came out and I still love it. Whatta pair from hot toys. Also the movie was very well received and a huge hit back in the day. It hasn’t aged well and the George Clooney one almost killed the franchise lol.
It’s not my favorite movie. But, the figures looked pretty good. They look right on compared to the movie. The look turned out great. The material used for both have some issues to deal with later. Over time there is going to be some degradation. The bending in the joints are ugly. Robin was treated badly as far as accessories. They totally ignored him. Once you set the figures up, I will say it’s definitely a win. They look great standing up. Your reviews continue to just be outstanding. Something I failed to mention countless times before. Reading other comments I agree. Your sense of humor is something I enjoy as much as everything else. You don’t joke a lot so when it happens it always makes me laugh pretty hard. It always happens unexpectedly. I wouldn’t want to persuade you for more because it’s best when it comes out naturally. I also enjoy not having to wait forever before you do a review. You don’t ever cheat your subscribers! Instead of separating the 2 figures to do two videos you did them together as it seemed appropriate upon receiving them. You are first class. I look for every new video you do daily and have been taking baby steps catching up because you have done so many videos. I hope every person that sees your videos subscribes because you deserve it. Your videos are always for your people! I tip my hat to you sir!
The sonar suit is highly underrated and I actually prefer the updated look of the 92 style suit at the beginning of the film too. The only good thing to come from the flash movie was that future Keaton Batman suit, absolutely perfection!
Val is the most underrated Batman ever I really liked his Bruce Wayne glad to see others do too. Amazing figure too, Schumacher's films lend themselves so well to action figures.
Once you opened the Box and the Batman forever symbol appear, immediately The Batman Forever's theme played in my head.. One of my favorite Batman movies.
19:52 Ironic considering IRL Chris O’Donnell is 183cm tall and Val Kilmer is 182.6cm tall. I think they used lifts to make Batman appear taller in the film. 20:57 Micheal Keaton is actually only 175cm tall IRL. So the height difference between his Batman and Kilmer’s Batman is accurate, it’s the height disparity between Robin and the Batmen that’s the issue. Robin isn’t tall enough to be Chris O’Donnell with Val Kilmer’s Batman, at least off screen, but the height is accurate to the film depiction. And he’s not tall enough in comparison to Keaton’s Batman either.
My only complaint is that the robin color is off and maybe even batman's suit is shinier then i remember in the movie. The robin suit is supposed to be a purple-ish or burgundy Matt shine and batman's suit wasn't that shiny and the color is slightly off. But the sculptures are awesome and detailed.
One thing I wish they added was mouth plates, they do it for other batman but not this one for some reason, also they should have done what they did with hellboy and make the suit the body and not a thick suit ontop of a body, also however unlikely I hope one day we get 1/6 batman and robin movie figures, even if 3rd party
Great review Justin, I’m gonna get both just because for one, the nostalgia of that era of superhero movies and like you said the suits back then compared to now. Two, Val Kilmer to just have something of him in the display case especially after what he’s gone through over the recent years. We probably wont get another character he played in a movie. Lastly, not too many Robins in 1/6 out there. Just a couple 3rd party and 66 version.
As a 9 y/o kid in the 90s, this was THE Batman movie! I saw it opening day with my dad, my friend, and his family. I remember during the movies intro; my friend threw up all over himself, and his popcorn, because he couldn't handle the crazy camera angles and colors. Ian, if you stumble upon this comment and are reading this... I remember!!!!
I hope someday hot toys will release a 2 pack batman forever 1/6 scale figures of val kilmer as both Bruce Wayne and Batman in his black panther batsuit.
Mine came with the head loose and when I tried to click it back on it wouldn’t work and then the socket eventually broke on me. Do you think hot toys would send me a replacement? 😢
The lenses were part of an iconic scene in batman forever. Batman: I see without seeing. To me, darkness is as clear as daylight. What am I? The Riddler: Please! You're as blind as a bat! Batman: Exactly
First, Robins cape is actually accurate being made from pleather. But whether it will last is another story. Batman’s gloves and boots should be the same color as the suit which is unfortunate.
@@JustinsCollection Batmans was made of latex rubber. More specifically I was told ballon rubber. I owned a screen worn suit with the cape that I sold last year. I was surprised when I saw that Robins cape was pleather in person. I always had assumed production would have made it out of leather.
Can't wait for mine!! Great video Justin! A bit oftrivia for those who were not around when Batman forever was released, critics and audiences considered this one a much better movie than Batman returns, it made a lot more money than Returns and sold a lot more toys so Warner Bros was very happy with Kilmer Carrey Odonnell and Schumacher
Do you think the color of Robin's suit will fade in time like the Ironman rubber crotch piece? Is your Batman cape glued at the end tips to form that over the shoulder look?
I can't understand why Hot Toys made the Sonar Suit cape (and gloves/boots) black?? I mean in the film the cape is a metallic silver just like the suit.
I know the difference between Batman Forever & Batman & Robin was only a couple years but story-wise it seems like it took place 10 years later, Clooney obviously playing an older Bruce. I always wondered why they did that when we could’ve had another movie with Kilmer & O’Donnel that took place right after Forever left off.
Do you know if Toys wonderland actually includes the brown shipper boxes for all their Hot Toys figures? And if they do, do they actually ship the item inside a extra box, or do they just use the shipper box as the actual box used for shipping?
Hey Justin another great review, it's not a cop out imo this suit looks great and imposing in a museum pose. Not all figures need to be in crazy poses and I'm looking forward to getting mine and posing him vanilla.
I had to go double check on Google, but that Robin suit should be significantly darker, the red was actually burgundy. That really turned me off from picking him up. 😢 But that kilmer is perfect. Now HotToys give us the navy and Chrome versions from Batman and Robin please 🤘🏽
I actually would have loved the first Batman costume from the movie with the Robin. Seems like a more natural combination. I love that Robin a lot so that's why I would rather have only the Robin because I am not a big fan of the sonar Batman costume.
These designs were absolutely perfect for selling toys, even if they were in not too great of a movie Edit: Robin got them assets goddamn Edit 2: Batman got that ass too goddamn
Hey Justin, Batman Forever and Batman & Robin only exist in the Schumacherverse and no longer take place in the Burtonverse. The Flash series 2014 has confirm this.
I remember the first pics of val kilmer in time magazine, you could tell by the fact that the bat symbol was displayed on the belt buckle of the utility belt that something was going to be off even though I have a soft spot for some of shots in the movie
This was indeed my Batman movie as a kid. Buying both was a no brainer. Never thought they would’ve made them, yet I’m so grateful they did.
Loved it!
Same! ❤
Val Kilmer is definitely the most underrated. He’s not the best and definitely not the worst but because he’s in the middle he gets forgotten a lot
He's not in the middle , Keaton , Bale , Affleck, Patterson were better . Only one he was better than is Clooney

First, Robins cape is actually accurate being made from pleather. But whether it will last is another story.

I think he captured both character Batman and Bruce Wayne Keaton is good Batman Clooney is good Bruce Wayne but Val is good at both

Is this a rubber suit on Tb league body ? or regular plastic body underneath
A plastic body
I pretty sure that on gadget is when they get to the islands and it’s starts to separate Batman launches it and it bounces off the rocks
Could be
I know the difference between Batman Forever & Batman & Robin was only a couple years but story-wise it seems like it took place 10 years later, Clooney obviously playing an older Bruce. I always wondered why they did that when we could’ve had another movie with Kilmer & O’Donnel that took place right after Forever left off.
Fair
This figures looks awesome!
They do!
Great review. I was a huge fan of Batman Forever and I recently picked up the Batman one. Looks fantastic.
Nice!
Do you know if Toys wonderland actually includes the brown shipper boxes for all their Hot Toys figures? And if they do, do they actually ship the item inside a extra box, or do they just use the shipper box as the actual box used for shipping?
They do not. In HK they do not come with shippers
im surprised hot toys included other hands for batman. i thought robin would have the extra hands for the both of them so you have to buy both.
Haha that would have been an interesting tactic
Hey Justin another great review, it's not a cop out imo this suit looks great and imposing in a museum pose. Not all figures need to be in crazy poses and I'm looking forward to getting mine and posing him vanilla.
Agreed!
I like this cinematic Robin brother Justin, and fits in well with my Arkham Hot Toys.
Nice!
May not be a fan favorite in the films but every figure I've seen from based on the movie hasn't disappointed me yet
Agreed!
I had to go double check on Google, but that Robin suit should be significantly darker, the red was actually burgundy. That really turned me off from picking him up. 😢 But that kilmer is perfect. Now HotToys give us the navy and Chrome versions from Batman and Robin please 🤘🏽
Fair enough
I actually would have loved the first Batman costume from the movie with the Robin. Seems like a more natural combination. I love that Robin a lot so that's why I would rather have only the Robin because I am not a big fan of the sonar Batman costume.
The panther suit. Yes me too
Love these figures. Mars toys is coming out with Riddler and two-faced, can't wait!
They sure are!
I Love These
Nice!
These designs were absolutely perfect for selling toys, even if they were in not too great of a movie
Edit: Robin got them assets goddamn
Edit 2: Batman got that ass too goddamn
Lol
I think the cutter is what he used to cut the chain on the vault

Happy Christmas Justin!!
Same to you!
Hey Justin, Batman Forever and Batman & Robin only exist in the Schumacherverse and no longer take place in the Burtonverse. The Flash series 2014 has confirm this.
Is that a thing?
gotta love the batcheeks
Yes!
Just got my robin , did not take it out of the box yet, but it looks great the colors really pop. Batman is on the way just got notice from Sideshow
They do!
I remember the first pics of val kilmer in time magazine, you could tell by the fact that the bat symbol was displayed on the belt buckle of the utility belt that something was going to be off even though I have a soft spot for some of shots in the movie
Damn
Justin finally you got them. Amazing I am definitely getting the Kilmer Batman.
I've had them for about a while, I have been sick so there was a delay
@Justin's Collection well I hope you are feeling better my friend
