Damn you Harry Potter!!
Does Rowling's owning his likeness expire or anything??

I know! *sigh* He never looks the same in any movie!!
Look at this guys amazing job on custom figures - I am SO darn jealous.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1bp2ZuWB-_Y
Anyone have a link that makes this 'JK-Rowling-owns-Oldman's-likeness-and-therefore-he-can't-be-made-into-a-figure-for-any-other-film' official?
I've having trouble believing this since his character in both don't look anything like each other for one. Also, I don't think it's legal to own a person's likeness in relation to another property or franchise.
If anything, it's probably WB's choice to not use him for marketing reasons only.
That sounds more plausible, Bale is doing the same thing with Terminator Salvation action figures. The only figure that has Bale's (John Connor) likeness so far is Hot Toys.I suspect it is more like Rowlings owns the rights to the image of Oldman as Sirius Black (is that the guy's name?) , the only one who can own the rights to Gary Oldman's image is Gary Oldman. I suspect that if there is no permission to use his image for TDK products, it's because Oldman himself has not given it.

You can't blame him for that. I doubt I'd want my likeness being sloppily transferred to the kiddy toys... you might as well hold out for the best.
We can't deny that the Tumbler is BADASS, but most definitive Batmobile for me. The one that screams: I'M BATMAN, is either...TAS or 89![]()
Which is the definitive one?![]()

60s is cool, but to me, Batman wouldn't drive a convertable lol
