The MMS 409 Batman is not considered rare, as it was a standard production release with a large initial manufacturing run. While specific variants or limited editions may hold higher value, the base figure remains widely available on the secondary market. Collectors typically find this item at stable prices without significant scarcity premiums.
The MMS 409 Batman originally retailed for $234.99. Live secondary-market data isn't indexed yet — check eBay sold listings for current value.
Hot Toys does not publish an official authentication service for individual MMS figures, so there is no centralized database to verify serial numbers. To confirm authenticity, inspect the figure for high-quality sculpting, precise paint applications, and the official Hot Toys logo on the base and packaging. Compare your item’s details against verified images from reputable collectors or the manufacturer’s official press releases, as counterfeits often exhibit visible seams, loose joints, or incorrect packaging fonts.
The MMS 409 Batman was released in 11-Feb-17 by Hot Toys.
Hot Toys has officially discontinued the MMS 409 Batman figure, meaning it is no longer in print or available as new stock from the manufacturer. Buyers seeking this item must purchase it from secondary markets or resellers, where prices often exceed the original retail cost due to its out-of-production status.
Hot Toys does not submit MMS figures to third-party grading services like PSA or Beckett, so professional slabbed grades are not standard for this item. Condition should be assessed by inspecting the vinyl for cracks, checking the paint application for chips or rubs, and verifying that all articulation points function without excessive looseness. Examine the included accessories and display base for damage, as missing or broken parts significantly reduce collector value.
