DCC - Batman: Arkham Figure Series (Origins, Asylum, City, Knight)

[ShadowGuardian]

On a semi-related note, would anyone else be SUPER down with getting figures from the Telltale Batman series? Would love their versions of Batman and Lady Arkham (among others), genuinely one of the best Batman stories in recent history IMO.

Is it really that good? I still haven't gotten around to playing it. I've heard mixed reviews. I like some of the Telltale stuff but they don't have a lot of replay value for me personally

Well I haven't played through it two times yet so as a game it may not be super replayable, but as a Batman story it's INCREDIBLY solid. I consider it more like a TV Show or a movie I have influence over, and because of that it is a REALLY good piece of work. It gives different interpretations of the characters but it still understands what makes them great. That said, it's absolutely not afraid to take risks, and there are some REALLY clever things it does with traditional Batman mythos.

Trying to keep those comments spoiler-free but needless to say, I'd love figures of the characters.

The Characters I'd buy (SPOILERS BELOW):

Spoiler

Bruce Wayne
Batman
Havey Dent with extra Two-Face head
Penguin with extra mask head
Lady Arkham
Joker
and maybe more, depending on where the story goes.

Also interesting news, unrelated to DC Collectibles but very related to the Arkham line: NECA is releasing a TRU Exclusive Arkham City Harley in the 7-inch scale.
Thoughts? A bit stylized but I think it'd go pretty well with the other figures.

Well DCC just posted a video on their FB page showing off what's coming next week. The Batgirl/Oracle 2 Pack is coming on the 7th, and unfortunately for me they didn't fix the paint scheme on Batgirl's arms so I'm going to have to fix that myself. Ugh, I hate OCD some times.

Could you post a link?

This has the best close up of the Oracle and Batgirl thus far: https://www.dccomics.com/blog/2016/...iving-the-gift-of-barbara-gordon?sf44569093=1

She looks ok.
I'm not sold on the last joker and Harley.
Man I wish that ivy was released [emoji20]

Found a review for the Batgirl/Oracle two pack, unfortunately its not in English but we at least get to see them in hand: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gICl7By255k

If there was a 4-pack of unreleased Arkham characters, who would you choose? Characters that have had a figure in this line do not count.

My 4:
Calendar Man
Quincy Sharp
Alfred Pennyworth
Deacon Blackfire

 

[Captain Clown]

Aaron Cash.

Calendar Man
Deacon Blackfire
Nysa Raatko
KG Beast

I'd kill for a calendar man figure. Iv tried making a Deacon custom, came out ok but I'm dreading trying to make Calendar Man.

Was KG Beast in any of the games? I don't remember him.

No, he wasn't. He showed up in the Assault on Arkham movie for a minute.

This might be slightly off topic but can anyone's recommend a decent place to buy display stands for the Arkham figures (offering international shipping). Shelf dives are becoming a problem & a lot of this line comes with no stand.

 

[HPGR_Thrawn]

DC makes their own circular stands for 6" figures. Not sure where to find them internationally, though.

 

[TheAwkwardSilent]

It hasn't worked for me, but you could try the NECA stands on the DC figures.

Also, Arkham Knight Batgirl and Oracle are awesome figures! Try and get them if you can, to support the line.

 

[darthconlan]

So the rumor is maybe a new game next year 10 years after Knight.
Rumored villains are the Dee brothers, flamingo, white rabbit, the judge, talon, ivy.

To me that sounds pretty good.

 

[darthconlan]

Do you think we could see a poison ivy, deacon black fire and calendar man 3 pack? I know I'd buy it.
