Are the batman unlimited figures exclusive to a store or are they in all or most retail stores? Because I really want that Frank Miller dark knight returns one.

Why do they keep changing the Batman line? What was wrong with Legacy?
And the next wave (if you even want to call it that since it only consists of two figures) is incredibly disappointing and lame. Batman is starting to become the Wolverine for the DCU line. We got plenty of Batman figures, we need more villains. Poison Ivy and Black Mask should not have been exclusive to that subscription bullsh*t, they should have been in the line that goes to actual stores. They would have sold, especially Poison Ivy. But there's so many other Batman villains that need to be made too. The Mad Hatter, a regular Scarecrow, Hush, Ra's Al Ghul, Firefly, Scarface and the Ventriloquist, Hugo Strange, Zasz, Calendar Man. Hell I'd even rather have a Maxi Zeus figure than another Batman. I mean they made Catman for god's sakes. Come on Mattel get with the program.

While I would like more villains there has to be a Batman in every wave in order for retailers to want to touch it. I just wish the Batman figures were better choices. The DKR Batman looks good on terms of what it represents, but I hate how he was drawn on DKR. And while I like Kelly Jones's work I'd have rather had a Jones Batman instead of a Jones vampire Batman. and while I will probably get the injustice game Batman and Beware the Batman they shouldn't have been put into this line.

Yeah, I can understand at least one Batman in each wave, there's still a few different versions of him that would be cool to have. But each wave consists of only two to three figures, and where you have a wave consisting of only 2 figures and both of them are Batman, that kind of sucks. There should be at least three figures in each wave, one Batman and two villains or one Batman, one villain and one ally, or two allies. Whatever, just don't make the entire wave all Batman.

Agreed 100%...I love KJ's art, but I hated that stupid Vampire story. Why not just make a scary, creepy looking Batman in the KJ style, without the stupid Vampire stuff attached? The Batman figures are at least varied. Miller's DKR in particular is one I've been after for a long time, especially since DC Direct's version (while a nice figure) is severely lacking. |

Picked up a DCSH Darkseid today. I decided to check out a store that I found on Facebook, it was like a 35 minute drive but the dude's prices were really reasonable. Darkseid loose cost me 12 bucks, and he has his remote control. I liked the black costume version better, but for 12 bucks, the figure is awesome. I wanna go back when I have some more money, pick up some more figures. Pic -  |

 Got this today! My walmart finally got all these in that batman and dc. I was gonna snag a superman but there were 6 of him so I'm just gonna wait til I get paid again..I'm pretty sure he will still be there by then. But had to snag Batgirl. Been wanting a fig of her for awhile now and this one is awesome. I love the artwork also. The penguin and batman were both really tempting too..but with my frank miller batman on preorder and the 60s batman line coming I passed on both of those. |

Picked up a loose Mongul and Green Lantern today for 16 bucks for the pair. Lantern is a flat green/black with gray streaks in his hair...anyone know which figure this is? I'm assuming it's Hal, but not sure which wave or whatever.
Mongul is loose in the ab crunch and waist swivel, but the super glue trick oughta fix that right up.

That sounds like the Hal that came in the WalMart 5-pack

Looks like the one, now that I've looked at pics online. Thanks, PJ. It's a cool figure.
A couple drops of super glue in the joints and a few minutes of moving while it dried, and my Mongul's good as new. Good to have some new DC stuff I hadn't ever picked up.

That's my favorite version of Hal...as that's the one I think of most when I think Green Lantern.

Hawkman (DC Unlimited) is on TRU's website. Overpriced at 19.99, but it's there.

That's from the Green Lantern's Light WalMart Exclusive Box Set. That's the only "classic" Hal look DCUC figure, the rest have a post-GL: Rebirth look. |
