PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE announce soon that there will be a PHANTASM from Mask of the Phantasm in the Animated line soon. I still think MotP is my favorite Batman movie, yes even more than TDK or the 89 Keaton, and I have been waiting over 20 years for a good Phantasm figure.

That Catwoman is from Batman: The Animated Series, not The New Batman Adventures. I like how it comes with her cat Isis. I might pick up Batman, even though it's not shown here I don't care for the fact that they're using the New Adventures design for Killer Croc his original design was better.

I'm glad that they are going to be doing two versions of each of the Batman characters for both animated series. I much prefer the character designs from the original animated series.

I lobe that the Animated series figures all have several accesories. I'm going to try and only get a handfull of them, but it's going to be hard to decide who to get and who to pass on. Especially with these Designer figures also catching my interest.

They've said that, depending on how they sell, they would consider going back and doing the othe versions of the characters. They've already shown that they're planning a TAS styled Batman figure.
Personally I'm hoping they eventually do a TAS Poison Ivy. I'm not a big fan of her TNA design. Killer Croc would be nice, but I'm actually kinda liking the look of his TNA figure.

Have they said that? I was under the impression that each character was getting one figure and that some are the animated series while others are the new adventures.

I liked Batman the Animated Series better as a show, but I can't deny that most of the character redesigns for The New Adventures were pretty slick and nice. Technically it's all one show that changed the name with the new art-style. Bane and Scarecrow got very nice re-imagined looks for TNA, but I do prefer Joker and Killer Croc from the original style.

Y'know... now that I'm really looking at these new pics, I'm very disappointed in the packaging for the BTAS toys. I was really hoping that they were going to go in the direction of the Designer Series boxes. This packaging doesn't seem too collector friendly. I would've even been happy with the New 52 boxes.
I don't know about anyone else, but my collections change constantly. It's always nice to have the option of putting these things back in their boxes for display or, at the very least, easy storage. That doesn't change the fact that this is one of the most exciting DC lines in a long time, of course. It's just a minor nitpick of mine. Last edited by Poison Shadow; 10-10-2014 at 05:00 PM.. |

Scarecrow and Penguin were the best redesigns. Joker, Riddler, and and Mad Hatter were probably the most atrocious redesigns ever. Croc wasn't bad because they made him the right color, but he also seemed to get smaller and lose detail.
OH god have I mentioned how bad the new version of Riddler looked?

Yeah, they completely ruined Riddler in TNBA. Fortunately, if the prototype/rendering image I saw in 4chan is for real, he'll be done in BTAS style and released around the same time as the BTAS Batman.
Also, WTF is up with Harley being pushed back to May? |

So the Green Lantern 3.75 series is definitely dead I am guessing. Shame bc I really was digging it. They showed a bunch of figures I guess they will never get to.

OH god have I mentioned how bad the new version of Riddler looked? I wouldn't say Joker's was all that awful, my only big gripe was the lack of the red lips otherwise it was pretty much the same. Prefer the original, but I don't hate the redo. Mad Hatter and Riddler were just way better in the original. Stupid feckin' pyjama costume Riddler. Mad Hatter got too cartoony being short and giant-headed but losing all color, at least he was still Roddy McDowall. I really digged making Penguin look like Burgess Meredith's version, creepy preacher Scarecrow was a great new take, and I like the S&M Bane better than the Luchador we got in the original.
