I REALLY REALLY hope McFarlane makes a Panther Suit variant. Val Kilmer looks so good in that batsuit.

[@1995Batman]

Yeah I imagine they could make a Panther suit figure quite cheaply by making some slight alterations to the Clooney figure.

[@jswatch9270]

I hope that McFarlane toys will release the figure of val kilmer in the panther batsuit as well.

[@lucarennie3096]

They’ve ruined the single release

[@1995Batman]

😬 yeah I'm baffled why they changed the colours on the cowl.

[@faceheadman]

i judged this guy too harshly when i first saw the promo images, hes definitely the stand out figure of the bunch and i really dig the shiny'ish blue finish he has. hoping for the single carded version any day now

[@1995Batman]

Yeah it's a great figure. What do you think - if they do a Batman Forever line - what will the build a figure be?

[@faceheadman]

@@1995Batman hmmmm... it'd either have to be the suit the riddler wears at the end or maybe even the panther suit. ideally (but impractically) a vehicle would be amazing but thats probably reaching too far, a man can dream though

[@1995Batman]

@@faceheadman Yeah a white suit Riddler would make sense.

[@faceheadman]

​@@1995Batman i just remembered some one asked Todd himself about a forever mobile release in a QandA not too long ago and he didn't dismiss the idea. i have a feeling we'll get a gold label pack like we did for the keaton mobile first

[@1995Batman]

@@faceheadman Interesting. That would be amazing if they did that.

[@tadeuferreira4059]

But, I can't help but to imagine what it would be if action figures nowadays had some kind of gimmick, like the older Kenner/Hasbro/Mattel days... AND MERRY CHRISTMAS to you and your watchers!

[@1995Batman]

Yeah, I saw all The Batman toys that are still on the shelves. No wonder no kids bought them. Where's all the crazy colours and backpacks? Anway thanks man, Merry Christmas to you too.

[@aknight7252]

Wholesome christmas moment!

[@osmosisdarkdavid26]

I paint my Batman midnight blue to match up his suit from the movie

[@1995Batman]

Yeah I might do the same

[@pennygadget7328]

An extra neat thing about the McFarlane shoulders: they're ball-jointed in the delt AND inside the chest so the shoulders can swing forward or back, as if to puff out his chest, and can shrug up and down so you can add a bunch of personality to the poses. They're my favorite shoulders on the market (that sounds weird) and bigger companies like Hasbro are starting to copy that shoulder design for their latest G.I. Joes. Now if only they'd copy those nice rubber trunks... And the B&R Batman is actually blue, just a verrrrry dark blue. You need him side-by-side with one of the black figures in super bright lighting to tell, it's way too dark and they dropped the ball on that. They tried, though.

[@1995Batman]

Ah nice facts. I'll have another look at that Clooney figure. Get it under a brighter light.

[@INKf3KT]

omg you bring up the big guns at the end of the video

[@1995Batman]

Oh yeah

[@umjammerlammy9993]

I legitimately despise Mcfarlane's toys, but this one is the exception. It's actually a really good figure

[@1995Batman]

Oh wow, how come you hate them so much? Genuinely interested. I don't have many McFarlane figures. What's bad about them?

[@rankrodent2772]

I genuinely love them, they did so much for the toy business

[@kylekullin2520]

I have this one. Do I want the single release?

[@1995Batman]

I think the single release looks a bit disappointing. They've kept the cowl, gloves and boots black for some reason 😔

[@kylekullin2520]

@@1995Batman wow 🙀

[@roboconnor9652]

Merry Christmas Neil! Thanks for everything you do. ❤

[@1995Batman]

Thanks Rob. Appreciate you and everyone else who tunes in to the channel. Been listening to All Star Superfan Xmas special while I cooked lunch. Great stuff as always.

[@erobinson8526]

Ah looking forward to the hot toys review. Great video as always and Merry Christmas!!

[@1995Batman]

Merry Christmas to you too!

[@LesWalker2023]

Sorry, late to the game! (Holidays and been under the weather) SO glad to see YOUR reviews of these figures!!!! It is about time!!!! So, GREAT STUFF, yes!! And Yes, there should be a BF set! (Note hole for plastic cape in figure's back!) Glad to see both the versions together also! SO glad to see this. I just put my just acquired Mac Kilmer figure in with my Forever set, and it so adds to the group! I think this is the best figure of any of the McFarlane Batman figures, so I am biased. Enjoy your figure, my friend! Happy New Year! May you keep finding cool items to share with us!

[@1995Batman]

Thanks Les. Hope you're feeling better now. Yes, so happy to have this figure (agree, it's the best of the lot) and looking forward to the full Batman Forever set whenever that comes out. Got lots more Schumacher stuff to review in the meantime.

[@LesWalker2023]

@@1995Batman Now that McFarlane has the BF set out there, I snagged the Robin via the McF site, and reserved a set of Two-Face and Riddler on BBTS! I skipped on the Batman, as once having and redoing him is enough, even though all those accessories did pull at me! (As did the complete Dream Bat!) I am sure you will get them all, so when you do, I literally cannot wait for your reviews! Can you believe this great time of 1995/97 movie figure releases!?!?!? Unreal!

[@1995Batman]

Ah yeah. Understandable. No sense in customising that Batman twice. Yes, we're getting some incredible figures at the moment. And even more on the way - Beast Kingdom has 7 inch Clooney Batman, Kilmer Batman and Carrey's Riddler later this year.

[@Wolfblue7]

Hey Dude, great great video to end the year, The McFarlane Val Kilmer Batman Looks sick, and you were right about the Mattel version, it looks nothing like Val Kilmer at all, I'm glad you have one, and you finally have the hot toys version of Val Kilmer Batman, I can't wait for you to review it, and also I hope you review the Batman and Robin McFarlane toys too in the near future, I saw them online and it looks amazing, but I hope you have a great christmas

[@1995Batman]

Thanks man. Yeah I *might* have splashed out and got the Hot Toys Robin too. Have a happy Christmas.

[@Wolfblue7]

@@1995Batman Very nice bro!!! Can't wait!!! And thanks

[@tadeuferreira4059]

Wow, what a figure, I always liked Macfarlane toys, since the Spawn's1997 era, I had lots of them back int he day, it's a shame they break so easily!

[@1995Batman]

Yeah I'm trying to collect some of those early Spawn figures now - particularly the movie ones. Tricky to get a hold of them.

[@tadeuferreira4059]

@@1995Batman, if you collect them, make sure to put here on the channel, I have so much fond memorries of Spawn toys! And make the review of this Batman Forever from hot toys, show all the details that are possible from this one, ok?

[@1995Batman]

@tadeuferreira4059 Will do.

[@chrispapaminas]

I picked up the complete set. What a joy to have Kilmer and Clooney! I also got the Hot Toys figure too! Merry Christmas!

[@1995Batman]

Agreed. So great to have these figures after all these years.

[@ethanbentley1837]

Awesome figure! If they release it separately, I'm definitely picking it up. Hope they have more characters from Forever. Just got the Batman and Robin wave from McFarlane. Merry Christmas!

[@1995Batman]

Merry Christmas. Yeah would be amazing if they did 5 or 6 figures for the Batman Forever wave. Sugar and Spice would be amazing for instance.

[@ethanbentley1837]

@@1995Batman 100% agree!
