HMD BrickCustoms Posted September 28, 2019 Posted September 28, 2019 The new cape look more like a rubber to me than plastic

Its the 1989 Batsuit with costum molded cowl and chestpiece. Not sure if it will be with this new exclusive Batmobile or with the UCS Batmobile that will come out in December. Personally I'm going with the latter since there is no mention of a minifigure on the box of the exclusive one. Wait, are they going to release the GWP Batmobile before the UCS one? That's not good...
Hoth Rebel Posted September 28, 2019 Posted September 28, 2019 That's probably the best looking standard Batman yet. The mold for the cowl/cape looks like a perfect rendition of the 1989 suit. The UCS is supposed to come out in November so I would suspect that the GWP Batmobile is for that release. I hope it's the Batwing, but they could also do a bigger version of the Batmobile. They've done it before with, for example, the Harley Davidson.
BaneShake Posted September 28, 2019 Posted September 28, 2019 Now THAT is an accurate Keaton Batman. I said before I would only accept said fig if they did something special with it, and OH BOY did they listen. I'm not even a huge fan of Burton's Batman movies and I need this in my life.
scottypavarotti Posted September 28, 2019 Posted September 28, 2019 I’m really enjoying the run up to this big set release in November, plus the minifigure series
DarthLeapyous Posted September 28, 2019 Posted September 28, 2019 Does anyone know if there will be a Jack Nicholson Joker minifigure?

Still given that the new December UCS Batmobile will include the Keaton figure there is a chance that they add the Nicholson Joker as well like they did with the UCS Tumbler. If he is included I'm expecting to see him relatively soon as well. 1 hour ago, hachiroku said: Wait, are they going to release the GWP Batmobile before the UCS one? That's not good... Well we don't know when the GWP Batmobile will be available so it could be that it will be around the same time as the UCS one.
Robert8 Posted September 28, 2019 Posted September 28, 2019 (edited) This has to be from the CMF series, right? Because the set box doesnt show him And the Batmobile is an exclusive and wouldnt have a new mould .... Man that Batman is just perfection. Love the chest/cape Edited September 28, 2019 by Robert8

There is no chance of this being from the CMF and it wouldn't make any sense, I'm honestly wondering why you think its from the CMF
scottypavarotti Posted September 28, 2019 Posted September 28, 2019 (edited) I’m just speculating here, but the D2C piece count, the limited 1989 Batmobile and this possible Keaton style minifigure make me wonder if we’re headed for a UCS 2-pack of 1989 Batmobile and Batwing, with two minifigures, Keaton and Nicholson. That would have parallels with the Tumbler set with two figures which has sold really well for LEGO. The piece count of the new set is apparently higher than the Tumbler. However, the Keaton Batmobile in the same sort of scale as the Tumbler might well have a lower piece count. Not as bulky, not as many panels, more streamlined. So maybe the piece count is made up by an in-scale Batwing. The exclusive set is for VIP orders within a short window. ? Edited September 28, 2019 by scottypavarotti Spelling
GoldenNinja3000 Posted September 28, 2019 Posted September 28, 2019 That new Batman figure is amazing. I love the new cowl and cape mold! I’m guessing it’s from the D2C since no figure was shown on the box of the GWP. I hope it’ll be revealed soon- the Joker Manor was revealed at the end of September for a Black Friday release so I hope the new D2C will be revealed any day now!
RadioYeh Posted September 28, 2019 Posted September 28, 2019 Oh my god. I could not possibly be happier. If it is indeed real, they absolutely did the Keaton suit justice.
Whovastron Posted September 28, 2019 Posted September 28, 2019 my two-cents: The ucs is the Keaton Batmobile, and comes with Batman, Joker and maybe penguin and Catwoman? the batmobile will just be a GWP like Diagonal Alley, Avengers Tower, Battle of Hoth and Battle of Endor. Either it will be a qualifying price on superhero sets, or only if you buy the Batmobile
THELEGOBATMAN Posted September 28, 2019 Posted September 28, 2019 Batman comes either in D2C set or CMF series. Honestly, I know people love this minifgure, but I think it looks awful tbh.

I think they're probably willing to pull versions of characters from whatever they decide will sell well.
KevinMD Posted September 29, 2019 Posted September 29, 2019 48 minutes ago, BaneShake said: Exactly. I think they're probably willing to pull versions of characters from whatever they decide will sell well. Regardless this figure ain’t in the cmf. You can take that to the bank.
RadioYeh Posted September 29, 2019 Posted September 29, 2019 A bit disappointed that they didn't include an exclusive face print for Keaton like they did for Bale, but the cowl mold more than makes up for that. I honestly kind of wish they would just retire that face print all together, because I never found it particularly interesting even when it debuted in 2012.
Henry Bricklider Posted September 29, 2019 Posted September 29, 2019 The new Keaton Batman looks really cool, and I really want to make sure I get my hands on him when he comes out. I haven’t looked forward to a Batman minifigure in a long time.

I think they're probably willing to pull versions of characters from whatever they decide will sell well. I’m planting my flag firmly on the side of Legoised comic versions. I don’t think we’ll see other versions. Unless by some fluke the four reveals just happened to be comic only, I don’t see it. They could have made Sinestro from the BatB cartoon, Stargirl from Legends and Metamorpho from Beware the Batman, for example. Just my two pence worth.

They’ll be all comic based, some designs may be influenced by TV and Film but ultimately still comic based.
