FondJoy has officially announced that their 1/9 scale Michael Keaton Batman (2023) action figure is beginning to ship to customers.
Based on the character’s iconic return in The Flash (2023), this figure has been one of the most anticipated 1/9 scale releases of the year. While the Standard Edition is currently on its way to collectors, FondJoy has shared that the Deluxe Edition has unfortunately been hit with a delay. This news was shared the FondJoy Global Facebook group.
What’s in the Box? Standard vs. Deluxe
Whether you are unboxing your figure this week or waiting for the expanded version, FondJoy has packed a significant amount of detail into this 19cm tall collectible. Both versions feature advanced joint designs for high articulation and a “neck sleeve” to maintain the seamless look of the cowl.

Deluxe Edition Delay: What We Know
While FondJoy did not specify the exact cause for the Deluxe Edition’s holdup, these delays are often tied to the production of the additional accessories, in this case, the second alternate head sculpt, which is an unmasked Michael Keaton likeness.
The Standard Edition still offers the “exquisite detailing” and “dynamic poseability” that FondJoy is known for, capturing the weathered but sharp heroic presence of the veteran Dark Knight.
