I'm just going to wait until I see these in person at a local comic store or Barnes and Noble. They charge between 20-22. I like the idea of walking into a store and seeing BTAS on the pegs again as opposed to just buying them online.

Yep, that nostalgia factor at work.

Bummer I tried to apply the discount code and it does not work for the figures... Guess I will stay with BBTS...

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

That's funny. Its like those eBay sellers who say: 'Worldwide Shipping' and then have all the other countries in the 'Excludes' list.

Its that bat-gadget the wraps around your opponents legs... Makes me think that Batman will come with an extra cape also....

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

Great to hear that Man Bat gets 2 sets of wings!

And hearing Robin has an extra cape has me hopeful that Batman will as well. I am guess Robin's will be one that drapes over his shoulders much like the NBA Batman does.

Sallah

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

Okay, so they did think of everything. If Robin has an extra cape, no doubt Batman does as well.

Which means the capes are a separate plastic piece!

Oh ok. Thanks

Catwoman uses them too.

I knew they wouldn't leave us hanging with the arm articulation.

Curious to if we will see what the packaging looks like at SDCC.... Hoping we will see Harley at SDCC also and Animated Series Batman....

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

Awesome. I am SO glad they are doing these figures right and bringing the accessories.

So if they are basing them off of their appearances in certain episodes, I suppose that will allow them to repackage them or do 4 packs/ SDCC exclusives, etc. with different accessories or such.

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

Yup, that's exactly it, and I'm curious about accessories, as well. Personally, I'd love some interchangeable accessories, as well. My ideal Man-Bat, for instance, would include a swap out set of arms (with wings outspread), an alternate "angry" head (brow furrowed/mouth wide open), a vial of the formula, and the tape recorder that the guard had. Batman would have a removable head and switch out capes, along with his grappling gun and, maybe, a Batarang. Catwoman's pretty much got everything she needs, with the exception of Isis, Freeze is good on the accessory front, Two-Face just needs his coin (possibly a clear, plastic cylinder with several coins in different positions within, in order to simulate the "flipping effect" when plugged into his hand), and yeah, I, too, am drawing a blank when it comes to Robin, Ivy, and Joker.

If we knew they were doing vehicles, I'd say an alternate "helmeted" head for Robin, along with a grappling gun. Joker's had so many different things over the years. While it wasn't my favorite episode, I think "The Last Laugh" could provide some interesting accessories for Joker. The Fishbowl helmet, the shopping cart, and a crushed up Captain Clown would be ideal. I've got no idea about Ivy, though.




I actually like that first set. It's got three of my favorite interpretations, and I like the novelty of a "75th Anniversary set." The second set is puzzling to me, though. I cannot, for the life of me, understand why Arkham Origins Batman is in there.

Boom. Nailed it. Seriously, though, DCC are going above and beyond with these figures. They almost seem like 1/6th offerings, with the exception of the actual size, with all the interchangeable hands and accessories and so forth

I bet they're going to use packaging similar to the designer series.

Wow, he really did!

I'm new to the DC Collectibles.. Has DCC ever offered multiple hands???
