They blow the Kenners away Only if they don't break under their own weight like most DCD figures and that d@mn clear brittle plastic they continue to use on the pins. But like the fool I am I just preordered the new DCD "Son of Batman" figures that went up for preorder today. I heard about the horrid quality of DC Direct figures |

Does anyone here have the RAH Harley figure by any chance? It's been taunting me from my local comic shop for quite awhile now but it's quite pricey to pull the trigger on. It sure looks cool though, at least to me. Anyone happen to have it and can offer any comments/reviews of it?

Yes, they look great. I love The Bat too. I can't wait to see Batgirl. They blow the Kenners away Considering the advances in toy technology and the fact that it is 20 years later? No.....they really don't blow Kenner's figures away. Kenner did one hell of a job with this property in the 90s. BUT it is nice to finally have a show accurate Robin because Kenner never did one for TAS. They just used the Batman Returns Robin with an animated head. |

wow.....totally not worth that. That Keaton head is ridiculous. The Kenner Keaton head is like 10 times better.

This line is just destined to fail. I don't see it passing the first two waves really. My thoughts exactly. Collectors wanted 6-inch high quality figures of these classic superhero movies, not 4-inch cheap crap that's barely any better than the original toys, and at probably a much higher price than the originals. But of course if/when they cancel the line, they'll blame us. Saying there's not enough people buying them like they always do. Because it could never be that they are cutting too many corners and completely missing their target market. Never. |

want to buy them, but my areas TRU distribution center hasn't even received them yet. Hopefully Target or WalMart will get the new wave before B1g b@d ships mt preorder. Would love to save on shipping. As for the price they are $9.99 everywhere except TRU. But TRU is raising the prices on average $5-$8 more then all other retailers in almost all lines.
DC lines
Marvel lines
WWE
To name a few.

That was the best version on Batman in the Forever line. Yup. wasn't it also the only screen accurate Bats? I know Robin got a single card release of this costume and his Pre Robin costume was a good screen accuracy one too. But Ol batsy got shafted!! |

I never got why they did that to Robin It was to keep costs down for the 1st wave. They went over on the budget with The Penguin figure and since they already had a Robin buck laying around they used it......pity they never got around to doing it later though. Would have been a popular figure and ideal when they changed the packaging to "The Adventures of Batman & Robin" God I love TAS and EVERYTHING to do with it. |

But seeing some Batman Forever popping up and I'm chubbing up haha, I LOVED these, it was the first Batman film that came out in my life and man I loved the Christmases of getting these and stuff. That two-pack is great, will always love that set  |

During my comic shop/toy store hopping, i ran into a brick wall when it came to getting a Capullo Batman figure.....sold out everywhere locally. I knew these would move,but damn...lol. I was not empty handed at the end of the search. I got the last Capullo Nightwing in town, plus grabbed the Capullo Riddler for good measure. Then 2 of my major new 52 wants surprised me, as i finally got my hands on that Suicide Squad Harley Quinn and Vilians Deathstroke. So my immediate DCD wants are the Capullo Batman and Talon, Wonder Woman/Kitana set, some Arkham game-verse stuff, and i really need to get started on a proper new 52 JLA shelf. Im also planning on setting some cash back for that Deluxe Darkseid. Anyone on here have that piece? Im curious about the quality on that one. I havent really read any reviews on it, but ive heard there were some QC issues on some older deluxe figures. Hoping he wasnt one of them.

Yeah that's true......there was also one from the first wave(battle Board batman?)that was accurate too but he had no cape. And of course you had the 2 pack with their end of movie costumes. Kenner's Toyline was the best thing about B&R. Bane- comic accurate & a perfect scale fit for the Super Powers. Great movie accurate versions of the characters.....they came late BUT they did come. Pity no movie accurate Batgirl though..... |
