8:25 WOW ! You moved it to the left, and it looks like he opens his eyes in a scary expression, in order to strike even more fear into the heart of his opponent 😮 That's impressive
Funny you stopped and commenting on the package since, from the moment I saw it, reminded me of to 89. It was something that, upon seeing it brought back memories.
I'm not worried about size but witch one should I get the hot toys or neca. Which one is more realistic..it seems like hot toys is more movie accurate but I'm not sure. Neca head sculpt seems a little off to me idk
NECA for me is one of the best toy manufacturers I got Dante(DMC), Kratos(God of War), Arthas, Stitches(Warcraft), 2 Eddie (Iron Maiden) figures. TOP quality Great Details truly collector pieces
devito penguin and catwoman from neca - id love them so much :D this figure looks brilliant! i want one! if i ever find it at an affordable price in the uk, id happily pick this one up... time to play the ebay waiting game i guess
Yes, a complete set of The 🐧 Penguin, 🐱 Catwoman, and the Joker would be a epic set. As for the Riddler, Two-Face, Poison Ivy, and Mr.Freeze um.....nope. Same with Robin and Batgirl. Just not the best characters to make figures for, but a Joker and Penguin YES! Plus Michelle Pfeiffer Catwoman, that's always worthwhile.
When I saw the NES version I was almost thrilled to finally see an 89 Batman at 7 inch scale. I was put off by the color, but I begrudgingly bought the figure, so that I can at least get a Keaton sculpt in scale with my coable llection. I even asked the guys at the comic shop if they knew any reliable cutomizer to render the movie colors. In short I was bummed. A couple of weeks later, I founnd out about the blue ray combo. I panicked and called my comic shop to hold one for me. Unfortunately, it was only avaalable thru WB's ebay. It was out of stock, so I felt frustrated. Later I heard otr the TRU release. I jmped to the hunt. 2 weeks in three differet TRUs later I managed to score 2 w/c were the last ones on the pegs. It made my day. I got it at 6s:30 PM. It was sheer luck! Now I got one for display & one MOC as a back-up, since I also heard the horror stories of limbs snapping- off. Fortunately, mine stayed intact. Wohoo! & yes, this is my action figure for the year.
Awesome vid , I finally got this package off ebay ... I wish they made a Jack Nicholson Joker the size of this Batman !!! I grew up with this movie and the game also and had the 89 toys ...
nice batman video spot I like batman to I've got all the batman 1989 movies batman batman returns batman forever and batman and Robin and the 1966 Adam west batman dvds
Weird that there are no Neca stamps unnder his feet? I usually use the Neca stamp check to determine if a figure is real or a knock-off but I guess that doesn't apply here and I wonder if there are other Neca figures that also don't have a Neca stamp?
Thank you so much for doing this review. In all honesty I had no idea they made an 89 batman in that scale. Instantly I had to order it. Coming in the mail this Thursday :D
NECA is by far the better company for figures. Mattel has decent likenesses but weak articulation. Hasbro is hit and miss with everything. Plus their web site SUCKS.
As much as I would LOVE for NECA to expand on this and start a line of Tim Burton Batman figures, it's more than likely not going to happen. At least not in this scale. Remember, NECA only has the rights to produce 1/4 scale Batman figures. The only reason we got this figure was because NECA exploited a loophole. They repainted the 7 inch NES Batman (which was itself scaled down from the 1/4 figure) and then offered it as a "bonus item" along with the Blu-ray.
I got him too. He's so fucking epic!!! Fuck mattel for not letting Neca do the rest of the line. I hate the 4 inch 1989 Batman figures. What the hell am I suppose to do with a small ass figure?
DC Direct was basically rebranded as DC Collectibles. A few years back, DC announced they would be closing shop on their merchandising arm DC Direct. DC then immediately announced they were starting DC Collectibles, which is essentially the same thing as DC Direct, except they'll have an online store of all their merchandise for people who can't/won't go to comic book stores.
They might, but not likely in this scale. DC Collectibles and Mattel have the rights to 6 and 7 inch Batman figures. The only reason NECA was able to release this was because they exploited a loophole by repainting the 7 inch NES Batman (which was scaled-down from the 1/4 version) and offering him as a "bonus item" with the movie.
neca sucks, this batman awful, me hate batman too, articulation is useless, mattel best toy company ever, this comment comes from me bizzaro, from bizzaro world, hello now
Ahhh, yeah remember when cinema theatres used to sell all the related figures, posters, mugs etc. I wish they still did. Great vid, Spot.
Thanks Hawxy
ah those were the days man, i used to get some good figures at my cinema and t-shirts too. still have my batman mug.
This Batman figure is amazing in my book.
I'd love to get a Batman Returns Batman figure from NECA. Returns was my childhood Batman movie :)
This was always my favorite batman suit on film.
I wasn't even alive in 89, but the cinemas sound a lot cooler back then lol
I wonder if there will be a Nicholson Joker in this scale?
I bloody well hope so! 😀
Its not gonna be easy getting Jack's likeness
I hope so!!!! With the really long barrelled pistol. That would be epic.
3 years and not so far :(
Spot I just spotted 3 of these figures at my local Toys R Us in Oregon. My jaw dropped. Thanks Spot for all the vids.
8:25 WOW ! You moved it to the left, and it looks like he opens his eyes in a scary expression, in order to strike even more fear into the heart of his opponent 😮 That's impressive

13:13 I thought Spot's gonna say he wants a George Clooney Batman Figure
Definitely one of my favorite figures as well. Also, I think I recall adding you to my FB group this morning.
This Figure's great! But I want to see a 6 inch Christopher Reeve Superman figure!
WHO'S WITH ME?
I AM! It only took six years, but there is now a six inch Christopher Reeve Superman.
Six years...
Batman and the tmnt is a great team
I need this!!
I'm not worried about size but witch one should I get the hot toys or neca. Which one is more realistic..it seems like hot toys is more movie accurate but I'm not sure. Neca head sculpt seems a little off to me idk

This is like gold dust in the UK as Toys R Us in England refuse to stock any decent collectors toys.
devito penguin and catwoman from neca - id love them so much :D
this figure looks brilliant! i want one! if i ever find it at an affordable price in the uk, id happily pick this one up... time to play the ebay waiting game i guess
Yes, a complete set of The 🐧 Penguin, 🐱 Catwoman, and the Joker would be a epic set.

Great review Spot. This is such a great figure and is a favorite of mine as well. It's a definite must have.

nice batman video spot I like batman to I've got all the batman 1989 movies batman batman returns batman forever and batman and Robin and the 1966 Adam west batman dvds
Great review Mr Spot
I have to get this set. I agree that Neca are the ones who should be handling more of the superhero figures and other licences.
You should see my review of it.
Didnt expect to see you here. Love your Michael Myers videos!
Weird that there are no Neca stamps unnder his feet? I usually use the Neca stamp check to determine if a figure is real or a knock-off but I guess that doesn't apply here and I wonder if there are other Neca figures that also don't have a Neca stamp?
To be fair his neck had no articulation in the film so it's actually quite accurate haha.
Thank you so much for doing this review. In all honesty I had no idea they made an 89 batman in that scale. Instantly I had to order it. Coming in the mail this Thursday :D
Oh my god. Can't wait to get my hands on that bad boy!
I agree. Neca would probably do better than Mattel and hasbro
NECA is by far the better company for figures. Mattel has decent likenesses but weak articulation. Hasbro is hit and miss with everything. Plus their web site SUCKS.
Awesome review, Spot!
I now have this figure too.
Still worth getting in 2023? If I can get at a decent price
Great review spot
Neca is flat out awesome and they NAILED this Batman. I never saw this figure back then and I wish I would have.
Yay my Favorite Batman!
Nice video man I wish I had that batman
Hopefully I can buy this set in the UK.
Good thing I asked for this

Good job
I found the batman 1989 in the goodwill dumpster and some idiot kid put blue food coloring and cut the cape so i clean most of it but i still got now
I've seen the old toy line my uncle actually has the old batman still in package.
Cool
You can also Pull up t he mask to see Michael Keatons face on this figure
66 batman and ledger joker from neca
I got him too. He's so fucking epic!!! Fuck mattel for not letting Neca do the rest of the line. I hate the 4 inch 1989 Batman figures. What the hell am I suppose to do with a small ass figure?
Do you have The Crow figure from neca?
I believe his shoes were Jordans.
How about a Batman Returns Batman spot??
do they make a Joker like this?
no
I hope so but Jack is so fussy when it comes to action figures of him
Omg the pink lips
Wat happened to neca predator spot?
Karlos Varudo yeah what happened to the neca predators I loved when you unbox ed the predators 6 inch figures
I hate the cape on the figure I changed it out for a pleather one.
What happened to DC Direct?
DC Direct was basically rebranded as DC Collectibles. A few years back, DC announced they would be closing shop on their merchandising arm DC Direct. DC then immediately announced they were starting DC Collectibles, which is essentially the same thing as DC Direct, except they'll have an online store of all their merchandise for people who can't/won't go to comic book stores.
can I have the movie
Zack Ryder brought me here!
Why did Zack Ryder bring you here??
What??
Will NECA make a new Ben Affleck Batman?
They might, but not likely in this scale. DC Collectibles and Mattel have the rights to 6 and 7 inch Batman figures. The only reason NECA was able to release this was because they exploited a loophole by repainting the 7 inch NES Batman (which was scaled-down from the 1/4 version) and offering him as a "bonus item" with the movie.
I. HAVE. A. NECA. BATMAN
