We have a "retro" toy store in town. I stopped by today and they had a 50% off sale. I picked up the Mafex DKR Batman. Its my first Mafex figure, its great looking but every time you pose it, it falls apart because every part uses the ball joints. Are they suppose to be that easy to take limbs off lol?

The first release of the DKR figure falls apart very easily. They rereleased the figure and it is much sturdier but can still have a shoulder pop out every so often. The BvS figures (at least the Batman) are much better. I haven't had anything pop off or break (knocks on wood)

The head, chest and both arms have fallen off so far lol...I guess I shouldnt complain though. I only paid $19 for it

I wish they would give us a Begins Batman. I like that costume more than the TDK/DKR costume. Nice. Mine arrived yesterday. Now I just need to patently wait another 23 days to open it. lol Haha I'm gonna snap some shots of it over the weekend, it'll make the wait that much harder for ya Can't wait for nightmare Batman, Harley and joker Mafex figs to hit lol. I can't wait to see them. Yeah Knightmare Batman looks to be fantastic, plus he will have the alternate Bruce Wayne head. I have him preordered. I didn't preorder the SS figures though. I might go back and get Wonder Woman and Superman at some point. But for now I just kept it at the Batman figures.

Yeah, I already have the movie master figs, and I hate that NECA one. I cant get past the coke-eyes and chicken legs.

The problems I see with the Neca one are...the crazy eyes, elongated neck and odd looking legs. The hips-knees look too long while the knees-feet look too short.

I know its a little off topic but I completely missed out. Did anyone see the Mezco BvS Armored Batman? They have some really awesome stuff in the 1:12 collection. I gave up on Mezco quite a while back but I might be looking into them more. There are so many different figures... I just hope they are all scaled well. It might be a case of mixing and matching up between the Figuarts and Mafex figs. Definitely not feeling that Figuarts Joker though. Looks rubbish.

I missed out on preordering the One:12 Armored Batman. I have the reg BvS Batman from that line. But he is packed away until Christmas. They are close to the 6"-7" scale, but I think they are taller than Figuarts and have cloth attires.

I really wish it wasn't Christmas time or I had seen these figures earlier. I am dying to get that Frankenstein figure but I've still got a lot of stuff to buy for others.

Just bought the Icons Batgirl off Amazon. I hope they announce a Robin (either Tim or Damian) as well as a Red Hood soon.

Amazon had Icons Batgirl arriving this past Friday, but they changed delivery to this Friday. Usually I buy from my comic shop, but I figured I could save a 20 mile trip to the store. I gave my shop a call to see if they had any left. All sold out.
