Jazz Inc. Batman Returns - 'Michelle Pfeiffer' Catwoman

Thanks for the update video, Craig. They're doing a great job, and greater yet with their intake from the public and in providing this information. So looks like an unmasked head would be definitely out. Given the research they've done, I think they could have still released it (perhaps even unhaired and unpainted) as a separate product.

@csyeung Beat me to it!, i was about to share the very same video

@rollotomasi No problem.

@collectorofmany Day 1 for me also. The end of September, apparently? possibly?

Looking good!

Subtle.

I have been looking at the base some more..
I think the Neon sign could be better. The letters should have the join parts that link all the letters - which will result in a better Neon replication.

I will let my thoughts known to JazzInc.

Looking at the image showing the 3 different portaits, i really do like the portrait on the far left side of the image.
Boots are looking good. I sense zero articulation.
Assuming that is the actual outfit, i think is the 1st image showing white stitching on the black outfit. From what i can tell, the white stitching is painting on, not actual stitching.

With time licking by, i sense JazzInc. are getting on with the job at a rapid pace, to allow for a pre_order to happen soon.

Edit: I appear to have typed the word 'licking' instead of 'passing' - eh? weird mistake to make? cat's do like to lick though.

While I have personally lost interest due to the wasted potential of an unmasked Michelle Pfeiffer head, these look absolutely excellent.

Some more images..

The smirk is nice, but the snarl needs to have the eyes looking off to the side.

Preorder expected around sept 30

I’ve heard they’re now planning to have movable eyes and changing faceplates on some of the figures, but it’s getting harder and harder to follow all the changes. Either way, this figure is going to be so freaking expensive, I doubt I’ll be able to get it.

Lovely. I know I’m old, but this was never my favorite version of Catwoman; Julie Newmar will always be my favorite live-action CW.

SAVE THE DATE:
Due to an unforeseen delay in our Fedex Priority
shipment of our prototypes to our suppliers, and
the following Golden Week festival in Asia, we
have decided to set the launch date of our
Catwoman figures on Thursday October 17th.
This will give us the time we need to make the
best calculation on competitive pricing and what
SKUs to form to make as many of you happy as
possible.

The Launch will be on October 17th at 8am LA,
11AM, New York, 4PM London, 5PM Amsterdam
and 11PM Hong Kong, and will be a
simultaneous Launch by Spec Fiction and
OneSixthKit. Payment plans will be available.

I have been away on holiday for the past 9 days. Feels good to be back.
Some news, some big news on the JazzInc. Catwoman!

Pre_Order Starts: October 17th 2024

I so so hope the factory matches what is pictured above.

I read a post, not so long ago, JazzInc. are apparently working with Phicen/TBLeague on an anatomically more correct body than the body used in the image above, which features incorrect oversized arms for example, compared to Catwoman as she appeared in the movie.






To follow in the steps of Catwoman, JazzInc. are working on Penguin

Maybe it is time to start a Danny Devito as The Penguin thread.

Some new shots.
I like the crazy looking portrait with messy hair / teeth on show most of all.
The portrait on the final image (the 4th image) i am less sold on.

As far as we know, the body being used in the photo's above make use of a standard off the shelf TBLeague / Phicen body.
JazzInc. are supposed to be working on a custom TBLeague / Phicen body. I hope they do.

More info of release

here's a ss of the different SKU's

5 options.. so many options. Such a great looking figure. I hope the factory can deliver on the proto's.

Yikes! InArt pricing, but then, I expected as much. If you don’t have the room for the dio, buying the Deluxe of each separately is the way to go.

While I agree with this sentiment, it’s only a $10 difference to upgrade to the all in with the diorama base, even if you don’t have the space it’s worth it for that. I’m trying to figure out which option I want. Well let’s be honest I want that all in, but I’m waiting to see both payment plan options from OSK & SpecFiction.

Holy cow that is ridiculously gorgeous! I would LOVE to get the double deluxe just to not miss out on such an amazing figure and instead appreciate the artistry daily. Sadly... can't justify it.  

If they were offering a package of 1 body, 6 heads, etc... so no double of anything THEN I'd be tempted no doubt. Then again... having 5 of those gorgeous heads in the body at all times seem a bit of a waste, too. 

I didn't see a single shot that demonstrated the movable eyes though. If they are also hand-painted, then... how well can that be done without causing the paint texture to experience friction when adjusting those eyes? I admittedly prefer the perfect clean look of the movable eyeballs by Pop Toys/Costume over the hand-painted look.

But like he said: can't please everyone. Great job in any case.

..and pre_ordered!
..with a 12 month payment plan. It was the only way i could manage it.

Next up for JazzInc. is Danny Devito Penguin.
After that there is the possibility of either Uma Thurman Poison Ivy or Zoe Kravitz Catwoman.
I would rather see Poison Ivy happen, as the Zoe Kravitz Catwoman looked..
..not very cat like, and i fail to recall her being in the movie much?

I'm digressing.

Jazzinc doesn’t ship to the US, so Kit is my only option. While the two figure deluxe would be the way to go… $1158 is just too far out of my comfort zone for a version of the character I wasn’t exactly wowed by.
