DC Collectibles Arkham Knight Red Hood (Gamestop Exclusive)
Pros
Great sculpt and paint
Metallic paint on mask is great
Guns are diesel
Cons
Rubber hood should be removeable/swappable
Overall
Another great piece from the line. It’s a shame Batman didn’t hold his own, because the rest of wave 1 is tops. Red Hood is a Gamestop exclusive but he isn’t any less of an awesome figure. The paint and sculpt are amazing, specifically the mask under the hood. Red metallic with highlight paint to break it up. The jacket is rubber and can be removed with care. But then you have him with jacket arms and no jacket. I didn’t like the look of the hood with the head turned, so I attempted to remove the hood. It came off, and works, but it’s a little sloppy on the inside and will devalue the figure later so I don’t suggest it. But, if that hood was removable or swappable for a “hanging/down” version, that would have made this perfect. Double joint knees and elbows, waist and thigh swivels, wrist flex, ankle rockers, he has most articulation needed. Hip joints are a bit limited and his knee guards get in the way a bit, but workable. Bottom line, very solid figure, he’s replacing my new52 version in the lineup.
Check out some key shots below, and the rest in gallery mode after that!. Make sure to hit our other Arkham Knight wave 1 galleries here: Batman, Scarecrow, and Harley Quinn.

Fellow collectors, please note! In the pics below, I removed the red hoodie from the jacket. This is not intended, and requires ripping the rubber hood off the jacket since it is glued. It definitely will damage the piece. I was curious and wanted to see what it looked like, but again, removing the hood from the jacket will damage your figure.
