In regards to all the hype regarding TDK, I've been scouring the 'net for rare and/or unique related merchandise. I have the 1/6 scale Batman Begins figured by Takara but I haven't heard any news yet on if they will be doing a figure for TDK.
Takara has re-released their Catwoman 1/6 scale figure, and there isn't even a Catwoman film in the works. I'd think that Takara would be all over this new Batman film.
Perhaps they no longer have the rights? Has anyone come across any info on a forthcoming TDK 1/6 scale figure?

I posted about this elsewhere, but I think it also fits as a reply here. While Takara is still curiously silent regarding their TDK product plans (if they have any), Hot Toys continues to announce more upcoming product. In addition to the awesome looking 1/4 Batman and Joker busts that were announced a few weeks ago, they have now announced a 1/6 scale figures of TDK's The Joker and Batman (in newly sculpted BB suit with swappable Bale head). The Joker - www.hottoys.com.hk/product.php?cat=66&pid=370Batman - www.hottoys.com.hk/product.php?cat=66&pid=369As awesome as these figures look, I hope these are just the latest strike in the 1/6 scale TDK figure competition (DCD's Batman and Joker announcement the first) and hopefully Takara soon joins the fray with some kickass collector figures. So far, I've only found the Hot Toys figures available for pre-order from BBTS. But they were just announced, so I expect other online retailers to start carrying them soon.
