Hot Toys Tease The Dark Knight Rises Bane Figure

Hong Kong collectible toy makers give us a glimpse at the Tom Hardy Bane action figure they are producing!

Hot Toys have released a teaser image of a Tom Hardy Bane figure they are producing for the upcoming The Dark Knight Rises blockbuster. The company are known as one of the industry leaders in producing high quality 1/6th scale action figures and with The Dark Knight Rises now only a few months away, the marketing push for the ever important merchandise sales should be kicking in soon. We are told to expect this figure to hit stores in March or April. Hot Toys also have a plot synopsis for the film, no doubt provided or at the very least endorsed by Warner Bros. It is worth reminding ourselves that Hot Toys are a Hong-Kong based company, hence the slightly obscure English;

The Legend Ends. The terrorist leader Bane will arrive in Gotham City, pushing it and the police force to their limits, forcing Batman to resurface after taking the fall for The Joker€™s crimes. The Dark Knight Rises movie will be coming this Summer and this Bane Collectible Figure will be launched in coming months before movie launches! Batman fans, please stay tuned!
Is that Harvey Dent's (Aaron Eckhart) torn photograph the Bane figure is going to be holding in his hand, a scene we saw glimpsed at from set photos? What a cool accessory if so! The Dark Knight Rises opens July 20th, 2012.
