Re: DC Collectibles doing Batman The Animated Series figures!!!!!

Picked up The Creeper. I really like the figure, but while standing next the rest, he looks like he's in a different scale. He'll have to go on one of the ends in the line-up.
A head-scratcher for sure... :gah:

@McHaleyArt I'm glad its not just me thinking that...

Yeah, looks totally out of scale when stood next to the other figures. I hate to say it, but DCC totally messed up on that one. He's gonna stand out like a sore thumb. I just hope they don't make scale errors with any future figures!!!
 
Re: DC Collectibles doing Batman The Animated Series figures!!!!!

He's usually crouching down. I'm sure they didn't get the scale wrong.
 
Re: DC Collectibles doing Batman The Animated Series figures!!!!!

Funny, I was on the fence with him in the first place. Never liked the episode, didnt care for the character. Even then with the Kenner figure I only bought it cause I found him with TNBA Bruce Wayne, and I was just excited for any new TNBA figure at that point. But he was $16 thru dcbs so I threw him in there with the rest of the wave. Now I dont even know if I'll bother opening him.
 
Re: DC Collectibles doing Batman The Animated Series figures!!!!!

How tall is Creeper on the show?

And, like mentioned above, he's crouching down most of the time, right? Why not display him like that?
 
Re: DC Collectibles doing Batman The Animated Series figures!!!!!

In defence, he needs to be crouching, as he does most of the time. He'll look better then maybe
 
Re: DC Collectibles doing Batman The Animated Series figures!!!!!

^ Yup. Definitely out of scale.

And it doesn't matter if he crouches a lot, and that you can pose him crouched. It doesn't change that he's out of scale, especially in the head. And you shouldn't be forced to put him in a crouching position for him not to stick out like a sore thumb.

At the end of the day, it doesn't bother me that much since he's a character I don't care about. I just hope that it doesn't happen to any other character.
 
Re: DC Collectibles doing Batman The Animated Series figures!!!!!

Robin too small, Creeper too big. Of course it will happen again to another character down the line.

It's not easy to nail different sizes in 6" scale. Toy Biz was notorious for this with their Lord of the Rings figures. The orcs and Legolas were way too big. Then after Wave 2, they changed to bigger sized figures, like by a half inch. Then towards the end of the line, te characters got smaller again. If DCD really plans on having an expansive line with a ton of different characters, then there's no doubt going to be discrepancies.

I have the first two series of these for sale loose if anyone is looking.
 
Re: DC Collectibles doing Batman The Animated Series figures!!!!!

For some reason, I received Batman and Catwoman from DCBS. I seem to recall and email a few weeks back telling me my order was cancelled as they were unable to fulfill it. I wasn't put off at all, just surprised to get the figures.
 
Re: DC Collectibles doing Batman The Animated Series figures!!!!!

Having got all the original Kenner BTAS figures, I don't see the need to buy these... they look great, but not good enough to buy them all again!
 
Re: DC Collectibles doing Batman The Animated Series figures!!!!!

I had the opposite reaction. Most of my old figures immediately went to my nephews.
 
Re: DC Collectibles doing Batman The Animated Series figures!!!!!

For anyone that couldn't come up with a good way to pose Robin with his bola, I thought this might help...

I finally found a clip of how he used it in the show which really helped me!

Good pose. I might have to copy that.
 
Re: DC Collectibles doing Batman The Animated Series figures!!!!!

Good pose. I have all the figures so far released. It's a long wait for the new batch of figures.
