Were there batsuit variant figures when TDK and BB came out?

Here's a list of the variants in TDK figures ...
https://www.legionsofgotham.org/FIGURESmovieTDK.html
Toward the bottom, under the Movie Masters figures -- labeled "5" basic figures". They all look to be repaints, not completely new figures -- and they almost all have capes, and all have uncovered mouths. This looks like a completely new figure. Still might be nothing ... but it is a bit weird that a variant would be included in a 5-figure multi-pack.
The TDK 4-figure pack included two Batmans ... one TDK, one BB. The only one with a variant like that is the Batman/Firefly two pack which came out long after the movie, and featured a villain that wasn't in the movie.

There appear to even be variants of the fully-masked variant. There are a bunch of repainted regular TDK suits (even one in all white) ... and then a couple of repaints of the variant suit with the full mask, different belt, different structure, and no cape -- which seems weird, too.
For instance ...
Still might be nothing. One of the Deluxe figures looks almost identical to the figure in the 5-pack -- and the one in the Batman/Bane two pack it is labeled "Stealth Vision Batman". Could be just a new-costumed toy they decided to repaint a bunch. But, why create a second costume when you can just repaint the first?

I assume you meant Metropolis, IL. And no. In fact, they sell some Batman stuff in the gift shop there. I was there last year and got a Bat symbol sticker that had been autographed by Bob Kane when he visited the town a couple of years before he died.

That action figure will have nothing to do with the movie and even still the masked ones are marked as Batman.
Man, those toys are lame. Has a Batman movie ever come along with good toys?
