Hey, does anyone know if the recall on the movie masters is permanent or will they be re released? I'm wondering if I should keep searching stores for a joker or I should start looking on the bay.
also, what is the best forum related to comic book action figures? Obviously I regard this as the best Wrestling Figure board, so is there a similar one out there for other types of figures?

PJ,
I trust you cuz you seem to really know your stuff. But from what I've seen online Series 2 only has the Chase Batman Begins Fear Gas figure, the Batman Begins fig, and the Scarecrow. Either way I'll keep my eyes open for the Joker, hopefully more are released.
Any word on a series 3?

Series 2 case breakdowns are either - 2 Batman Begin Batman 1 Scarecrow 1 Joker or 2 Batman Begin "Fear Toxin" Batman 1 Scarecrow 1 Joker With Series 2 I've seen 2 of the first case breakdown, but it seems everyone who has found the chase has seen the second case assortment. Today at the Palisades Center Target I picked up the Movie Masters Scarecrow and Joker...they were $12.99 each + tax. Target's DPCI # for them is 087-06-0977 So now I just need to find the Fear Toxin Batman.  I posted loose pics here - www.pointsofarticulation.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=34017&sid=90c0a37c5bb4415079809282b9ad6b13#34017Series 3 is rumored to be... Wave 3: 1 Batman 2 The Joker 1 Batman (Batman Begins) At least that's what on-line stores like Entertainment Earth are saying. Of course that could change. |

My TRU still has MM Series 1. They just wont sell them to the public. I am hoping someday they will be released. I have several Jokers on hold.

i have yet to find the series with just a normal batman and when is the two face or a harvey dent going to be released I think I read a post from JM at AFI saying he heard Two-Face isn't getting released until around the time of the DVD release. So it's at least a few series away if that rumor is correct. |

Three questions.
1. Is there an actual hazard to the recalled figures?
2. If not, why were they recalled?
3. Is there a chance the they will make Ra's from the first movie? They made the "Batman Begins" Batman and Scarecrow.

They made the "Batman Begins" Batman and Scarecrow. There was no recall. If there was a recall Mattel would have it on their website with the rest of their recalled products here- service.mattel.com/us/recall.asp or the US governments here- www.cpsc.gov/cgi-bin/firm.aspx Here was Mattel's Media Statment back on June 5... "MEDIA STATEMENT MATTEL June 5, 2008 Mattel is withdrawing certain limited products from retailer shelves worldwide. While these products meet with applicable local standards, the products do not meet Mattel internal specifications. Because these toys are safe, it is not necessary for us to "recall" them from the market. To confirm, no U.S. standards have been violated and no recall under federal law is warranted." From what had been reported later it had something to do with the packaging. And basically TRU was the only store that actually pulled the items. You can still find MM series 1 being sold at many Wal-Marts and Kmart. |

What about the packing?

They never said...although someone said (rumor) the new packages have more air holes in them. That I couldn't say for sure as I didn't count them before I opened my figures.
