News – Hot Toys 1/6 Scale The Bat Prototype is HUGE!

Hot Toys The Bat 1/6 Scale Prototype VehicleHot Toys has posted some photos of them unpacking their 1/6 scale The Bat prototype at their warehouse. This thing is so big it has to be shipped in a crate!

Please keep in mind that this is just the prototype they take with them to display at toy shows. The actual production piece will be on a 1/12 scale, and not a 1/6 scale. This is obviously due to the astronomical cost it would take to not only produce it, but to ship it. Websites such as IGN and One Sixth Republic reported months ago that The Bat would indeed be in a 1/12 scale. While this comes at a blow to the 1/6 lovers out there, this is no doubt great news to those who collected Mattel’s Dark Knight Rises 6″ figures. Theoretically, this should be in the perfect scale for them.

Over at Action Figure Insider, they got the scoop on the reveal of Mattel’s Cesar Romero Joker from their upcoming 1966 Batman Movie Masters toy line. I have to say, it looks very awesome and makes my own custom Cesar Romero Joker look obsolete. And unless it’s just hidden in the photo, he doesn’t seem to have full leg articulation, but it is supposed to be a prototype, so I’m sure that will change.
