I remember there being a black suited Batman with a red emblem on it's chest, but I'm not sure it's meant to be a Batman Beyond figure. Doesn't help that it's arm was rotated up and blocked the view of it's head. That said, if it is meant to be Terry, I'll have to keep an eye out for it.
It probably will be, but I would rather wait for a cheaper retail version of it. Even one with less paint and no electronics. Honestly, those things are usually so cheap that I've planned on using them as bases for customs for a while now. I've had the single release of Robin with the glider for months, I just haven't worked up the nerve to start lopping off limbs for more articulated transplants. Have a couple of others waiting in the wings too. Certainly doesn't help that there's something so charming about the simplistic designs that it almost seems like a shame to cut 'em up. The Joker got a reprieve, at least. The announcement of the Injustice Batman/Joker pack took him off the chopping block! |

Yeah, you're right - and that just made me remember that the 6" version had some insanely high heels which also made it impossible to stand her up on her own. She didn't even have peg holes on her feet for a stand. Looking at the Multiverse pics, I can't tell if they altered the feet or not...
Harley looks to be slightly taller than AO Joker too. Doesn't bother me, it's just worth noting. Image Removed. Please do not steal bandwidth. Use a free image-hosting service or your Toyark account to share pics. - Toyark Staff. I will end up getting the set regardless though. Edit:CTR's pic gives me a bit of hope that she isn't freakishly tall. Seems like they added regular Arkham Knight Batman to the case afterwards. Last edited by Specter; 07-28-2014 at 06:57 PM.. |

Check your LCS. Mine just got in the injustice Batman and Joker figures. I guess I should've said check 'em if you want the figures.

DCC Injustice Batman vs Joker 3.75'' pack is out
Mine is ordered and should be on it's way soon. Doesn't look like they made too many changes to the figures but I will wait to have in hand to make my judgements. |

That's okay, it's fun heating them up with a hair dryer and dunking them in cold water... Joker still looks good though. I just gotta find someone to sell that Batman to, 'cause I can't think of any customs I could use it for and I've never been a fan of that particular design. |

I'm actually very impressed with how they turned out. They're still too tiny, but the detail's pretty spot on. I'll open them soon and pose them next to Returns Catwoman from Multiverse that I also just received. Pretty good day indeed!

Just posted my pic over in the "Look what I just Got!" thread...I'll post it here too. I really like this set, but I sense the Darkside flowing through that box...I know it is going to be hell getting them out safely!!! :P

Thanks for the extra photo. This was my favorite Batman design from the game. I know some people don't like him. The only thing I will complain is the eyes and lower arms.
The character in the game doesn't have full white eyes. I know some Batman characters have it reason why they did this probably. But ok I can still accept this one. I can always had a dot myself if it bothers me that much. But the lower arms is the worst. I don't see the fangs on it or whatever those things are called. Somehow they missed that. Anyway in general the pack looks good. In this photo of yours we can have a good look at Batman and I like it. Last edited by Grippen; 08-01-2014 at 08:19 AM.. |

Doesn't look like DCC wants to continue making 3.75 figs with the lack of any news from sdcc... No more GL figs or any hope of LOBO AND SHAZAM..
Less I'm missing something? |

It's possible that they just won't focus as much on 3.75" stuff anymore, but we may still get sporadic releases here and there. I wouldn't be surprised if the Injustice line itself is over with, however. I'm not sure how I would feel if their 3.75" stuff is done, though. The articulation was great, but I've had so many problems that I'm gun-shy about buying all of the existing sets despite really wanting those characters. Meanwhile Mattel's Multiverse has announced damn-near every must-have character I was asking for. Less articulated, but sturdier. |

That DCC set is now obsolete to me. I will get the Multiverse one instead.
I'm sad there was no news on the GL sets. I really wanted some female figures from them. |

You talking about the Multiverse "Date Night" set? I like the DCC Joker a whole lot more due to articulation, even though I prefer the Origins design a little more in general. I'll be getting the Date Night set too, of course... just not sure what to do with that AO Joker. Might end up turning him into the Red Hood version, seems simple enough to do.

DCC and Mattel probably had some discussions, Mattel figured they can do more with 3.75 while DCC decided to stick to their norm.

DCC did put out some fragile figs but obsolete or not, they gave us the best GL figs, Flash, Cyborg, DOOMSDAY!, and tell mattle releases theirs, a pretty amazing Joker and Nightwing...
Also could you imagine DCC doing LOBO in a "Large Buck" which IMO they did damn well! Last edited by rustyrob; 08-02-2014 at 08:10 AM.. Reason: add more |

The problem is the sales I feel these didn't sell so much which is sad. The articulation issues well it was their first so we should give them some discount besides I feel they improved and corrected some of the mistakes. I had one bad Wonder Woman but the second one was ok. Catwoman and Harley were also fine. I didn't keep the makes counterparts. Batman and Nightwing were the only ones I wanted and they are on their way now. Flash and Deathstroke were also great in the games but I didn't like the figure result, Flash mostly the eyes and Deathstroke mostly everything but specially the head which is not even close to the one in the game. It would be good to see some other figures like Lobo, Scorpion, Batgirl (I think their female figures have been quite good minus articulation issues) etc... but I also doubt they will return to the these. But since the game is still ongoing specially on Android who knows....

Plus I'm trying to get them all at MU scalewise. DCC has a bad habit of using those clear fragile joint pieces on all of their figures. The fix they did was just to add a bunch of lube to those joints. Once that lube dries out I am afraid for my figures. It just confuses the heck out of me as to why they refuse to use some other kind of plastic. I was just a Target the other day where the Multiverse figures tag was $6.99! No figures left though. |

Yeah I like the Multiverse version better. His costume is closer to the comic version.

Just to correct myself looks like they added the fangs on him after all, you can see them well here (on his right arm)

I saw a Michael Keaton Batman variant in person for the first time, it looks even worse in person, more like weird Rob Schneider.
