Re: Batman: Arkham City - DC Direct - Series 1 action figures

haha don't think the thought hadn't crossed my mind! lol
I'd really love to make a Penitentiary rooftop dio based on the final confrontation in AA, but sadly I have no room whatsoever for that. Would look pretty awesome though, especially with a few of those joker thugs thrown in too!

I didn't think that there would be that much of a size difference between Titan Joker and Killer Croc.
Thanks for the photo's highlanderpdx.

Re: Batman: Arkham City - DC Direct - Series 1 action figures

When BBTS first put Titan Joker up for PO how much was it? When the price increased did they still honor the price or email you with increase of price? Did they do the same with Killer Croc and Freeze?

Glad I POd series 3 at BBTS this time because my LCS wasn't able to fulfill my order, he said he will get more shipment but no guarantee.

Re: Batman: Arkham City - DC Direct - Series 1 action figures

Got mine at CSC for $40, just like Freeze and Bane when they originally put the three up for pre-order. My Joker shipped with series three for $160 something so they definatley honored it

nice. Did you hear if BBTS honored it too? What was the first price they had up? I remember putting on PO but cancelled thinking my LCS would get them cheaper but when it arrived the price he estimated were way off.

Yeah neither did I, when my LCS clerk handed me Joker I was blow away. Now I need to find another area to display these figures, I have all the wave 3 figures I still need open and display. This is a great time to be a Batman collector!!!

True, it is. You have got a mighty fine Batman Arkhamverse collection there pal. Really Brilliant.

Re: Batman: Arkham City - DC Direct - Series 1 action figures

Haven't heard about BBTS. Wouldn't surprise me if they cancelled the orders or said the new MSRP is this, take it or cancel. Then again, they might have honored it too.

I'm hearing on Fwoosh Azreal seems to be getting shorted at LCS orders so he may be the future Bane of the wave. Definately not the peg warmer of the wave, that is for sure. I supsect that will go to Ra's.

Re: Batman: Arkham City - DC Direct - Series 1 action figures

One last pic of of my figures, I had to relocate them due to over population. I have set up a temporary set up till I can figure out a better display option. Until then I am going with this. The good part is I was able to open my new figures and display them because there was lots more room. I will get Ra's and the Joker Thugs next week and all I need is Zsasz and Joker from Asylum, So close I can taste it!!!

Taste the Happy Michael, Taste it!!!

Re: Batman: Arkham City - DC Direct - Series 1 action figures

Still no sign of these at my LCS despite their thinking they would have them by the middle of Sept.

Re: Batman: Arkham City - DC Direct - Series 1 action figures

Wave 4 to be announced at NYCC. My guess is:

Two-Face
Talia
Hugo Strange
Bruce Wayne

Re: Batman: Arkham City - DC Direct - Series 1 action figures

I'm hoping for Strange, Nightwing, Two-Face and Deadshot in the next wave - that'd make it the first wave where I'm equally desperate for each figure. I doubt Nightwing would make the same wave as Talia - we seem to have an ally figure in each wave (Robin, Catwoman, Azrael) so it'd make sense for the final two to be Nightwing and Talia in the next two waves (since there are probably only enough characters left for two more waves unless they do rereleases/variants).

Strange and Two Face HAVE to be in the next wave, surely? I don't like seeing photos of people's collections with that awful Mattel Two Face in them.

Re: Batman: Arkham City - DC Direct - Series 1 action figures

Awesome! They look great together and Titan Joker really stands out!! Can't wait to get him

Wave 4 to be announced at NYCC. My guess is:

Two-Face
Talia
Hugo Strange
Bruce Wayne

I think that line-up would only happen if wave 4 were to be the final wave. My guess for wave 4 is Strange, Talia, Deadshot, Thug, Batman variant. I think DCC might end up saving Two-Face for wave 5, with possibly Nightwing, Black Mask, Calendar man and Batman variant to round off that wave.

Strange and Two Face HAVE to be in the next wave, surely? I don't like seeing photos of people's collections with that awful Mattel Two Face in them.

haha yeah I can't wait to replace that Mattel Two-Face of mine with a DCC version! I'd love to get Two-Face sooner rather than later, but I have a feeling they could possibly leave him until last so there's a heavy-hitter to finish off the line with.

Re: Batman: Arkham City - DC Direct - Series 1 action figures

I really love this figures!, I have some of them, just the ones I like most in the game (full wave 1 AA, bane, catwoman, riddler, batman AC, penguin, Mr. freeze...) and really hope that two faces comes on the next wave, an amazing character of the game!
and a new version of Bane, on a deluxe version will be very nice too.

 

[highlanderpdx]

Re: Batman: Arkham City - DC Direct - Series 1 action figures

I am hoping for more larger scale figures to go with Croc and TJ. I hope for Grundy and Clayface and all the other main figures listed already. I think they have several more waves in them, they can do thugs from all the thugs (Penguin, Two Face, Harley's revenge thugs) plus all the super thugs that joker made like the one arm thug and the Big thugs.

That sounds about right to me as well. 2 more waves would really clean things up.

Batman variant - TDKR skin would be awesome
Hugo Strange
Deadshot
Talia
Penguin Thug 1
Penguin Thug 2

Batman variant - Bruce Wayne seems like a legit variant
Two-Face
Black Mask (would tie into Bruce Wayne well)
Calendar Man
Two-face Thug 1
Two-face Thug 2

I'd be happy with the line at that point. My only fear is one of those guys would get dumped for Nightwing. It wasn't IN Arkham City, just bonus content. I want game content characters before DLC. I'd only be fine with him if they sub him for a Batman, which is unlikely given their track record.

So they could give us a 6th wave potentially:

Batman Variant - Battle damged perhaps?
Nightwing
Gordon
Harley's Revenge
Harley Thug 1
Harley Thug 2

And Grundy and Clayface need the deluxe treatment period. The twins would be icing on the cake to me, but Grundy and Clayface HAVE to get made. Bane would be a nice line ender as well.

Re: Batman: Arkham City - DC Direct - Series 1 action figures

If the future releases are anything like you described buttmunch, then I will be a broke, but happy man.
Imagine a deluxe clayface

 

[Rodan]

Re: Batman: Arkham City - DC Direct - Series 1 action figures

yes, it will be awesome, really love the character designs on this game!

 

[CultofSkaro]

Re: Batman: Arkham City - DC Direct - Series 1 action figures

I think a Mad Hatter Batman would be quite a likely variant for them to produce. Of the villains, am I right in thinking these are the only ones left to make?

Strange
Two Face
Deadshot
Talia
Grundy
Clayface
Calendar Man
Black Mask

Then we could have a Harley Quinn's Revenge variant, as well as her thugs, and Penguin and Two Face thugs. Also the twins could be deluxe figures. Also, given that big things are said to be coming up, I wouldn't be surprised if we got a new Bane and perhaps a Joker rerelease/new Joker with a more accurate head. Maybe the sick Joker head, minus the sickness? And I think Nightwing is a dead certainty, given that Mattel have made one. Also the design is just cool.

I wouldn't hold my breath for any Batman variants of the other skins in the game though.
