I've recently started collecting the 6 inch Batman Mattel figures( got them off eBay), and I was wondering a few things:
a) when did this line start?
b) is it still continued?
c) if continued, then are there any future sets coming out soon?
d) can someone give me a list of all the figures/characters released?(excluding all of the Batman varients)
thanks to anyone who helps

It started in 2004 and because of all the Bats variants they seem to have quit making them...The last set hasent even hit US yet.
Characters:
Batman
Robin
Nightwing
Superman (only in two pack I believe)
Joker
Mr. Freeze
Killer Croc
ScareCrow (HARD TO FIND)
Bane (HARD TO FIND)
I think that's it...Hope that helps

Those figures are ok, but I prefer to get the DC Direct figs.

The line isn't going on in the states right now. I think I read something about Bane and Scarecrow coming to comic shops though.

That's right forgot about the Bruce Wayne! mattel dropped the ball on this line in a big way! I'm fine with a couple Batman Variants but they should have learned a little from Marvel Legends and released some other characters between the variants....Mattel are fools and they destroyed the best main stream Batman line to date.

I only have Zipline Batman and the Joker. It was an awesome line, but they were really hard to find around here.

I just found this new joker(repaint), but it looks new, has anyone else seen this one yet?
[ftp]http://cgi.EBAY LINK NOT ALLOWED/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=2480&item=5979343117&rd=1[/ftp]
so is this new, meaning the line is still continued, or is it old, and I'm the only one who hasn't seen it before?
oh, and thanks for all your help so far, people

I actually havent seen it before but from the Carding it tells me that it's from the second wave of figures. When Killer Croc came out in the second wave they changed the carding and added that design on the top left of the card.

on a side note, I just scored the 20" Batmobile that's for these figures (the one with the detachible robin cycle) off eBay. It should be coming in soon. Anyone else have it? is it any good?

I forgot about that Batmobile. I could have gotten it for pretty cheap on liquidation at Wal-Mart.

I recently obtained the Scarecrow and Banes figures from a guy in Australia (wasn't cheap!) I also won an auction a few days ago for the highly articulated Batman with Bat Signal figure:  I am looking forward to that one. Finally a Batman with Marvel Legends level articulation! This version has articulation at the neck (via ball joint), shoulders, bicep, elbow, wrist, fingers, chest, waist, hips, knees and ankles. The hips are not ball joints, but I can live without that. |
