are you thinking about getting any Batmobiles? I wish I could get the 89 one but not at that price...I might be able to get the DK one for $430ish which is not bad

Yeah, I'm definitely getting the Tumbler, and the (just announced) Batpod. I also pre-ordered the '89 Batmobile through BigBadToystore.com - it isn't due until next June, though, and you can cancel anytime up to when it ships without paying a penalty. My biggest problem (after scraping up the cash!) is going to be finding room for them !
If I have to choose just one, though, it'll probably be the Tumbler, though. As cool as the '89 Batmobile is, I like the Nolan/Bale films a lot more.

D, which Mark IIIs do you have ? The original, the battle-damaged, or both ?
I once owned the original Mark III release, along with the original Mark I & II, but sold them. When I started collecting again, I was afraid I'd have to pay huge prices to reacquire them, but thankfully, they've all been re-issued or announced as upcoming. I was able to get the Battle-Damaged Mark III (Sideshow Exclusive with the crushed helmet from the battle with Iron Monger) for a decent price last year. And then they re-issued the Mark II (Armor Unleashed version), they announced the Mark IV with the suit-up gantry, and finally Mark I version 2.0 (later in the year, with an improved Tony Stark sculpt). I got on a waitlist last year for the Sideshow Exclusive IM2 Mark VI (with extra forearm gauntlet) and it converted, and the Mark V is still easy to pick up inexpensively.I picked up a Tony Sculpt, along with the sunglasses, donut and donut box that came with the Mark IV (the re-issued Mark IV w/gantry won't have the glasses or donut) for $55 shipped off ebay.
I wasn't initially interested in the limited Mark VI re-release from Sideshow, but $161 shipped (using rewards points) was too good to pass up. Of course, there'll be a Mark VII announced in the near future as well!

It was up for about 30 hours before it sold out, but you couldn't search it on their site, you had to have the link from an e-mail Sideshow sent on Thursday to access it.
I actually was able to use some rewards points on it and ended up paying $161 shipped. Use the link above and sign up for the wait list; you never know, there may be some more available after credit card declines, and they usually hold some back for a while for damaged replacements that they eventually sell.

I went to buy him this Morning ..., but missed out. I didn't find out about him, till late Lastnight threw a conversation with someone ...., and I even got the Email, but didn't open that either, because it wasn't in the Heading.
