Huge GB fan and so sad how quickly the Busters line fizzled out. Looks like these two packs are the last hurrah until/unless a GB3 pops up.

Maybe Friday will bring news of a proton pack? One can dream.

I have to admit, Mattel has impressed me. I'm rather confused, but not being able to zoom in on the pictures, and read the cards, isn't helping.

Is the Batgirl the only new '66 Batman figure they're doing?

Also, is that Nightwing figure being released on it's own?

Open the images in a new tab to see them full size.

I'm assuming he's in a two-pack with Killer Croc at that price. The same with Grundy/Bats and Clayface/Bats.

I would if I could. I'm using the IE app on my computer, cause as bad as it is, it's still better than my current computer.

Squinting my eyes at the pictures of the cards, there seems to be a card just for Nightwing. Though I'm not sure of pretty much anything I'm reading. KC would be cool, but I would rather get Nightwing on his own. Though given his size, I might just put Croc with my 6" figures.

The Arkham City Nightwing is part of the Multiverse line. Listed at $25, but that seems high for a single 4" fig.

Ok, yeah, that likely means it's a 2-pack of him and Croc. Which, considering the normal Multiverse figures retail for ten bucks, twenty-five isn't a bad price for the two of them. Even better if they actually come with that display base.

Are any of those Batman figures supposed to be his Arkham Knight suit? I'm definitely seeing AC and AO, but I'm not sure if I'm missjudging an AK Batman for another version.

I'll... be starting up my computer in a minute... Sorry for all the questions.

Catwoman looks great, it actually looks like a modern toy... Croc does too... rest of them.... burn them.

I believe the "detective mode" Batman figure is from Arkham Knight.

There is also a card that says "Arkham Knight Batman" beside Scarecrow, but the figure is not photographed.

Multi-pack? I'll have to buy ANOTHER Batman and Robin '66 to get Batgirl?

Which is weird. Why release a 'variant' figure of the suit when we don't have the regular announced in that size.

NECA's heard that one a lot lately, too.

Those Arkham Knight toys look horrible. What happened?

That Batman Beyond looks incredible though. Why did it take Mattel this long to care about BB?

Oh god, they never fixed the legs on that Riddler as GL toy.

Do I understand this correctly? Is Mattel implying that ALL of those previous DCUC figures will be repackaged on Super Powers-inspired cards (see pic #62) ?!?
I hope that this isn't a tease, because I'd love a second chance to get Jayna and Zan.
... Yes... among the DCUC figures that I missed, I want those two the most I'm a little embarrassed to admit that, lol.

No, they are just showing off the DCU figures they did that were featured in the Super Powers line.

So true!!! Fortunately, DC Collectibles is bringing their A-game to their Arkham figures.

I think it may need to be stated that the Arkham Knight figures are from DC Multiverse.

That's a shame

Yeah, he may be one of the few Total Heroes that I buy. I'm not crazy about that line, but there are a couple of figures that I'd possibly consider buying.
The Batman Beyond figuress Mattel did for the DCUC and JLU lines were fantastic (even if the DCUC BB didn't come with wings). Now that the character has a much more visible presence in the current DCU, it's the perfect time for Mattel to introduce a new BB figure.

Batman beyond and steel look fantastic, must haves for me. The total heroes buck seems to work well on armored characters. Wouldn't mind an unleashed doomsday to go along with them.

Yeah, that Steel is going to be hard to pass up.
Also, I'm relieved that Mattel chose a more classic look for Steel, instead of going with his New 52-inspired look, like they did with many of the others. I don't dislike his New 52 armor, but I definitely prefer his older armor(s).

I don't have the DCSH Steel, so yeah, if I see him in stores I might have to grab him (and Bizarro).
