Review III: Hot Toys 12-inch Catwoman / Selina Kyle female figure on the 1/6th scale Bat-pod

continued from previous post...

Finally, Catwoman is revealed :) In the promotional posters and pictures of Anne Hathaway as Selina Kyle / Catwoman, she was posed with her safecracking goggles positioned above her head to resemble cat ears. This gave us a first look at the new Catwoman in the third Christopher Nolan Batman film "The Dark Knight Rises". This is Hot Toys - MMS188 (Movie Masterpiece Series) - The Dark Knight Rises: 1/6th scale Selina Kyle / Catwoman 12-inch Collectible Figure wearing her specially designed safecracking night vision googles in the same manner as the actress did in the movie, showing off the artistry that is found in Hot Toys.


As a bonus, I decided to pose this Hot Toys 12-inch Selina Kyle / Catwoman figure with the 1/6 scale Bat-pod, another movie promotional image that was making the rounds, making us all wonder how Catwoman got onto Batman's ride. Did she steal it or was it taken forcefully from Batman (The Dark Knight has to fall before he rises like the movie title says) and then handed to her? Now we know. Scroll down to see the pictures of Catwoman on the Bat-pod.




First, a closer look at the special 1/6 scale goggles that come with this Hot Toys 12-inch Catwoman / Selina Kyle female figure


The glasses first has to be raised about 90 degrees and then further rotated 180 degrees to achieve the "cat ears" look. You can see the pictures of the goggles when they are worn in the previous post HERE and the instructions on how to rotate the glasses in my first part review of this Hot Toys Selina Kyle Catwoman figure HERE


This is truly a beautiful figure and a movie masterpiece. Hot Toys certainly nailed the look of Anne Hathaway as Selina Kyle / Catwoman from the head sculpt to the goggles and mask, down to her costume consisting of a one-piece black patterned jumpsuit with belt and a pair of black high-heel boots.

The 1/6 scale Bat-pod Selina Kyle / Catwoman is on is the one I got back in 2008. It was for "The Dark Knight", the second Christopher Nolan Batman film. This would make it version 1.0 since Hot Toys released the second version when the third Batman movie came out. You can see my FULL REVIEW of the Hot Toys Bat-pod HERE


The paint scheme for the second Hot Toys Bat-pod is different from the original in that the newer version has more silver paint applied as compared to the first version.


I didn't attempt to pose Hot Toys Anne Hathaway Selina Kyle Catwoman riding the Bat-pod as she did in the movie but I think it'll be easier to pose her riding the Bat-pod than Batman because her skin-tight costume / rubber suit is much more flexible, being made of a much thinner material than Batman's suit. You can check out pictures of Hot Toys Christian Bale Batman The Dark Knight riding his Bat-pod HERE
