Ongoing Development & Medium-Term Releases:
  • KITT 1/6  | New prototype in development  | SDCC prototype was very early. Dashboard will be rebuilt with more accurate panels and electronics. Seats move further back, original seat fabric will be replicated, and removable T-tops are being investigated.
  • Black Tumbler  | Late October / November 2026 shipping target  | Production underway. Glass will be adjusted toward a warmer, slightly reflective amber tone based on new reference material.
  • Camo Tumbler / Cannon Tumbler  | Coming months  | Still in development/tooling, with more updates expected later.
  • Matrix, Trinity & Agent Smith  | October 2026 launch target  | Both prototypes were completed for SDCC. Future Matrix releases will depend heavily on support for these first figures.
  • Batman & Robin / 1997 Figures  | November 2026 launch target  | Batgirl and Poison Ivy prototypes were accelerated for SDCC.
  • 1992 Penguin  | Early December 2026 shipping target  | First batch estimated at around 1,200 figures worldwide. Suit and clothing are largely finalized, sculpt refinements continue.
  • 1992 Penguin, Sculpt Upgrades  | In production development  | Separate eyes, mouth and teeth for greater depth. Eyes are intended to be movable. Wire has been added to the Mayor Suit layers for better shaping.
  • Animated Batman / Animated Line  | January 2027 release target  | Custom body system has reportedly been solved, allowing articulation without obvious visible joints beneath the thin costume.
  • Animated Joker, Harley Quinn & Robin  | January 2027 line  | New prototypes were already shown at SDCC.

Future Projects / Teasers / Licensing Discussions:
  • Catwoman Unmasked  | Planned for 2027  | Intended as a battle-damaged finale look with rooted hair, smeared makeup and damaged suit. A separate upgrade head for existing owners is also being considered.
  • Selina Kyle  | Planned for 2027  | Separate Michelle Pfeiffer Selina Kyle figure. Multiple outfit possibilities are being considered.
  • The Batman 2022 Catwoman  | Future intention  | Jazzinc stated they want to make her, but there is no release schedule yet.
  • Matrix Morpheus  | Possible next Matrix figure  | Dependent on sales/support for Trinity and Agent Smith.
  • Matrix Ducati / Diorama / Real-World Neo & Trinity  | Concept stage  | Possible extensions if the first Matrix releases perform well.
  • Jurassic Park Vehicles  | Serious discussions with Factory Entertainment  | Jeep and Defender are among the most likely concepts. Ford licensing is also being explored.
  • Jurassic Park Dinosaurs  | Technical exploration  | Jazzinc is investigating seamless, poseable 1/6 Velociraptors and Compies using internal skeleton + silicone technology.
  • Star Trek Enterprise Bridge  | Under discussion  | Factory Entertainment asked Jazzinc to explore final prototype / production engineering, including screens and lighting. Not yet confirmed.

  • Speed Racer Mach 5  | Licensing exploration  | Jazzinc wants to make a 1/6 Mach 5. A producer approached them at SDCC, but licensing and development could still take roughly two years.
  • A-Team Van & Figures  | High-interest future project  | Jazzinc would like to produce the van, preferably together with its own 1/6 A-Team figures.
  • Aston Martin DB5  | Wanted / licensing dependent  | One of Jazzinc's most desired future vehicle projects.
  • Miami Vice Ferrari  | Licensing discussion stage  | Ferrari licensing would be required.
  • Magnum P.I. Ferrari  | Possible future project  | Also dependent on Ferrari and character licensing.
  • Wētā Workshop Collaboration  | Early discussion stage  | Wētā approached Jazzinc about potentially working together. Both sides plan to continue discussions, but no specific product has been confirmed.

"He's out there right now. And I've got to go to work."

When Tim Burton reimagined Batman in 1989, he didn't just create a film—he created a visual language. Dark. Industrial. Nocturnal. A fever dream of Gothic architecture and cutting-edge technology wrapped in black. And at the heart of that vision was the Batcave: Bruce Wayne's sanctum sanctorum, where a billionaire's paranoia and genius merged into the ultimate command center.

"I'm KITT. Knight Industries Two Thousand."

Some vehicles become icons. Others become characters. KITT is both.
