Well, here is what is left of my Arkham Collection. Kept my favorites and the two MOC SDCC exclusives I have. I will be getting Scarecrow and Arkham Knight when they come out and possible A few others that come out. May cave and get CLayface just to have one Deluxe guy in the Collection. And here is what is for sale. The other 38 figures I have. They are up in my Classifieds for anyone who is interested!

BAM! Found at Toysrus today! I thought I'd try, and sure enough, it rang on it's own. Cost $24.99 and worth every damn cent: I want one. It's awesome seeing the throwback ToyBiz carding as well. Also, I still have my TB/Kenner stuff. Awesome to FINALLY see Keaton in a proper 7" form. Can't wait to get that BTAS Catwoman figure. I can't decide whether to get the NECA 89 Batman or not. I've always wanted a 6 or 7inch scale 89 Batman but I dunno, something about the sculpt looks off and parts of it (e.g. the cape) just look cheaply done. In person, the sculpt is great. The main thing that throws people off, IMO, is that it looks a little disproportionate, due in part to the way the cape falls on the figure. I popped the head off my NES version and quickly tightened up the loose-fitting cape around the neck/collar, and the cape falls much more naturally around his shoulders and looks more film-accurate and well-proportioned. It WILL look great if you do that.

I was wondering, the 4'inch multiverse Two face, is his head sculpt on a ball joint? I'm really curious because I'm really contemplating making a custom of Billy Dee Williams as Two Face.

Using a Lando figure, I presume? I want to see this, sounds awesome. Even if the Two-Face isn't (can't help you there, I haven't bought any of those multiverse figures yet) it should still be achievable with a little ingenuity.

not pulling it off to find out, but normally they are on a stem like the Infinite Heroes were. Also ai might suggest the Black Mask because it looks like he has interchangeable heads so his is probably on a ball joint. Also I don't recall Williams ever actually being Two-Face...just Harvey Dent. So he wouldn't need a black and white suit and you wouldn't have to repaint his arms.

It is packed away for Christmas now, but if you have seen the Geundy or Clayface sets he is about the same size...which I think would be two small to put with the larger line. (unless you don't mind Batman and Bane being the same height) Also from what I can tell from being in the box it looked like his arms are stuck like that. (no shoulder articulation) Damn, I was thinking Mattel pulled a fast one on me and slipped the Bane we saw a proto of years ago into a different scale, but he physically looks different, so I guess it's another pass for me. I had to redo the stuff in the closet and just looked again. I think it is a modified Bane that was supposed to be in the 5" line minus the articulation in the shoulders...so I think he will work with the larger line. Just know his arms look to be set in that pose.

Yeah, I would be using a legacy sculpt with one half of the face modded. I know he didn't actually play the role of the villain but if Tim Burton's Batman trilogy would of took place as planned it could of happened.

So after seeing nothing but General Zod multiverse figures clog the shelves everywhere, I ordered Robin,red hood and scarecrow online. A few days later I'm strolling through wal-mart and they have at least 15 of each from that wave. ?

lol. That is usually the way it works. Happens to me all the time with The Walking Dead line. I preorder them from Big Bad and hope to find them locally before my order ships. But with every wave I found them locally either on the day my order shipped or the day my order is delivered. lol

Don't buy any Nightwing figures bud......I have at least 3 different Mattel ones for you to choose from. When I get into my Ma's attic this weekend Ill see what else there is. I am nearly sure I have a few Robins to choose from too.

I would think if the Batman series sell well they would. And if they do I hope they add in Aquaman, Flash and GL from their STAS Episodes. I really hope we get BtAS Batman and TNBA Nightwing soon.

They showed a proto pic of the BTAS Batman a while back. Not sure when it's coming but I wouldn't imagine it'll be long. A definite pick-up for me.
