    Could Batman '89 be in the works as well?

    My very good friend Jim, pointed out FTC has been posting allot of Batman '89 photos lately on their Facebook page. Could it be FTC will examine the movie license sometime in the future? Holy multi-eras Batman!

    Jack's likeness seems to be very costly.

      Would be the coolest Re-Mego line to date. AndI don't say that lightly considering all of the options and choices.

        Not sure you can go very deep with that line. Batman, Joker, Bob the goon, that's about it, anyone else is a second tier figure for sure.

            Penguin Catwoman, Riddler, Robin,Two Face, Batgirl,Mr. Freeze, Poison Ivy and Bane if you take in the whole Franchise

              Just checked their FB page, it is definitely curious how much Batman 89-related content they are sharing recently.

                Val Kilmer Batman? George Clooney? Ugh.....Batman 89 could be good for one solid wave, maybe 2 if you split up the 4 good figures. Batman and Joker would sell like gang-busters, the rest would be much tougher.

                  Even sticking with Burton you have:
                  Batman
                  Bruce Wayne
                  Joker (a couple variants)
                  Bob
                  Alfred
                  Vicki Vale
                  Penguin
                  Catwoman

                  If you wanted to keep going, you could do:
                  Christopher Walken as Max Shreck!
                  Billy Dee as Harvey Dent!
                  Jack Palance as Boss Grissom!
                  Robert Wuhl as Alexander Knox
                  Whathisname as Commissioner Gordon
                  And the other guy as Lt. Eckhardt


                  There are easily a dozen figures in there.

                  And if you could make a Batmobile... oh, sweet sassy Moses... don't even get me started...

                    went and looked at the FB page, didn't know two posts constituted a lot. They have a Yoda post too. Maybe Star Wars is in the works.

                      That's a lot of celebrities to pay $$$ to. Hey if they can swing it more power to them.

                        Considering that they have the DC / Warner Bros. license it would seem logical.

                          2 since Friday. Also the Variety piece they linked to was published about 3 weeks ago. That's a lot for a license that they haven't announced they have.

                            If they could somehow make a Jack Joker figure (whereas Mattel cannot) i would be eternally thrilled. It would certainly take some of the butthurt out of never being able to afford the Hot Toys version. And as far as I'm concerned ,accessories aside, FTC nailed Batman 66 with Hot Toys level accuracy. No reason to think they wouldn't do the same for 89. .......if it happens

                              ^^ I think Jack will make or break a try at this line. Without him, it would be like the Brady's without Mike.
