I give it at least a 9/10 for looks, definitely one of my favorite Batman figures so far. But buyer beware--I've had to replace two of these figures that have had either broken ankles, broken shoulders, or loose knees. And the one you received with glossy splotches all over the cape is probably enough of a defect to get a replacement, too,
Great review Spot! I personally prefer Batman's TAS design. For future figures, I'm hoping we get TAS Killer Croc and TAS Scarecrow fairly soon! Having those two alongside Joker would be the "big 3" of my definitive Batman rogues gallery.
Spot I'm happy to here you also prefer the New Adventures Batman look. I've seen several reviews who prefer the Animated Series look and while both are amazing, I prefer the New Adventures look overall. Great review as always!
I have recently started collection batman arkham franchise figures but I found this one on eBay for 21 pounds and I'm not sure whether I should get this one as a one off and then continue collecting arkham stuff because I really like the arkham figs but this one looks really kool. Eny ideas what I should do?? Also I only want to collect one figure line because I'm in my teens and don't really have enough money to support two action figure collections plus my comic book collection and my warhammer hobby...
I hope we get a scarecrow from this line. I really want the first scarecrow design scarecrow without the straw hair and without the rope around the neck
I watched this video and OH BOY do I have questions. I found an old box with the BTAS figures in it and although it was unboxed I thought this was the same one I quickly found out other wise. Mine does not have a pin hinge and stands pretty easily without the base so I am thinking it isn’t the same figure but it has all the same features, the stand, extra hands and small batarang (which for some reason my essential had an extra large one so I put it with this one, easier to hold) Do you know which one I may have. I was a kid when my brother and I got these and have no idea. Now that DC Collectables is donezo do you feel the unpackaged ones will go for a good price?
the original plan was they were going to release each series with 4 figures, 3 from one series and 1 from the other, the plan was they would be able to cover more grand bye alternating between this format. That has since change since they are taking some action with the issues of joints breaking.
I loved the Justice League Unlimited Bruce Timm styled maquettes from a few years back, but always wished for more figures from the DC animated shows. This look really interesting, what is the scale?
Jeez, these ankles. The left ankle broke, note, it didn't _break off_, if I press against it it stays in place and I can position it, but yeah, not the best joints. Still a great fig, tho. EDIT: Played with it for a little bit and now I cant move it up or down. Wasn't gonna anyway, but I'm kinda bummed now. Still, it's not loose, I can shake it and it stays perfectly in place.
My guess as to why Catwoman or Joker are based on the original Batman The Animated Series design? Because it was so much better. Remember that the new design for Catwoman was her all wearing black (but the overall look was extremely bland) and as for Joker (didn´t have lips or even eyes). In fact, I believe, they went for this Joker design because they´re staying within the Batman series and couldn´t reach the Justice League since THAT was the best designed Joker.
Spot, the fact that you get two capes it´s because with the second one you can´t move the arms because of the way it goes over the shoulders. So, they give you to choose to either have the one it comes with and pose him or use the second one for a different look where you can just display him as is. As for the shine that´s just a defect in yours. It has to either have it all over it or not at all. The way yours is looks bad. You should ask for a replacement.
¡Feliz Día de Reyes! Happy Epiphany Day! Thanks to the Spanish tradition both in Spain and the rest of Latin America we basically celebrate Christmas twice. Being today (Jan. 6) the second day of receiving gifts; from the Tree Wise Men. Reason people are still celebrating the Holidays. ...however, if you´re in Puerto Rico it´s even better since we celebrate Octavitas (8 more days of Holidays after the 6th) and some times even Octavones (8 more days after the first days). ;) Still, even though it´s true. In reality people go back to their regular activities a couple of days after the 6th. ...just wanted to share this info with you guys.

Damn am i the only one who got the face screwed up with paint over mouth and one horn smaller than the other. P.S Use stand always when posing the figure i learned that the hard way with one his ankles.
Your not the only one with ankle problems I was testing my ankles on batman all of the sudden snap I had super glue with me but the way the joint snapped it mad batmans ankle crooked so I can't stand him up;(
I'm still gonna pick up a few of this figures, but wow are they lazy as hell! The paint is all over the place and the stands look weird at times. Just seems lazy!
Don't worry. Mine Batman figure didn't have any of the painting problems and I saw other reviews online where that was fine as well. Guess it's just some of them that are messed up and not all. I recommend to look carefully at each of the figures though.

I really love the figure but I can't wait for the original Animated Series Batman coming this July.
Agreed big time!
what?
Great review Spot! I personally prefer Batman's TAS design.

The extra cape is to cover his shoulders. In that season, he wore his cape over his shoulders. It's a shame that your cape has those strange spots.
I've been wondering about this for a while thanks for the review
Great review Spot!
Under 301 club! Oh, and nice review, Spot!
Awesome Figure
Considering the high price there are quite a few faults with this line. I'm guessing the quality control on the figures isn't up to much!
Good review of batman
Spot I'm happy to here you also prefer the New Adventures Batman look. I've seen several reviews who prefer the Animated Series look and while both are amazing, I prefer the New Adventures look overall. Great review as always!
I wish all batman figures with plastic capes came with 2 different options. Hell I want it for cloth capes as well.

One cape is for action poses and the straight cape is for display maybe?
Spot:Tim Drake Batman
Me: is Tim Drake going to become Batman some day just kidding we all make mistakes great review
the one i got last week has no joint holes....
I hope we get a scarecrow from this line. I really want the first scarecrow design scarecrow without the straw hair and without the rope around the neck
Should I get this version or the original animated series version?
I love the review, but THERES A BATMAN BIBLE? I NEED IT IN MY LIFE

The review spot of you go on eBay and search batman animated series figure you'll see a preorder of the animated series batman.
A few issues but a really nice piece :) awesome review spot
I loved the Justice League Unlimited Bruce Timm styled maquettes from a few years back, but always wished for more figures from the DC animated shows. This look really interesting, what is the scale?
I hope they continue this line with the figures that were only available in the box sets, like Gordon, talia al guhl, ras al ghul with cape, Alfred.
Wash the cape! Paint the rivits to match the legs.
Got the figure love it
it seems i am lucky,my Batan figure has no paint problem at all,anyway great review
Jeez, these ankles. The left ankle broke, note, it didn't _break off_, if I press against it it stays in place and I can position it, but yeah, not the best joints. Still a great fig, tho.

I actually had this figure for a short while until his ankle joint broke off and I had to request DC Collectibles for a replacement
I think that one of the ears is shorter than the over one but great figure
This figure actually has ankle pivot according to the fwoosh's review on this figure.
I really think you should get a replacement and get your money back. That cape is ruined. Wth
Yea that sucked.

I think those marks on the cape must be a defect.
It's the Tim Drake Robin
1:06 I guess you meant Tim Drake Robin.
