The one closest to me is doing their reset in the morning, they said they have 6 in the back with no location (meaning they're marked for a street date) and the guy working today who is also working tomorrow morning said he'd call me as soon as they got to the action figure aisle and opened the cases (as I'll be at work). So we'll see, I guess.

Anyone find an Alfred at Target today? I guess I'll find out tomorrow.

huh i noticed that too
my target got the extra BM,no alfred case as well
kmart had to normal case

I asked someone at Target about the new TDKR stuff, and they said they'll probably hit retail on Tuesday. Sounds like some of you just got hooked up early. Good luck fellas, I hope you find what you're looking for!

nope you got screwed
today is the release date it says right on the box MAY 27th

that target should have been putting them out today
they are either lazy or lying

DogFashionDisco · 05-27-2012, 05:52 PM

I think you're right, I called a different Target and they already had them out. Just Bane and Batman though, no Alfred.

That isn't promising.

Though, the next wave is supposed to be 2 batman, 2 cat woman, 1 alfred, and 1 of the other guy.

Also: for some reason Wikipedia lists the 6th figure as R'as al ghoul (sp?), so we can speculate on that too.

DogFashionDisco · 05-27-2012, 07:23 PM

Just so you guys know, someone at Walmart earlier told me they were going to put out their Batman stuff tonight at midnight, because the boxes are labeled "5/28." They had all the pegs and tags already set up, so it looks promising. I'm going up there later and getting an Alfred, but if they let me get two, I'll hook someone up. My only concern is that when the dude tried to find the cases for them, they were in the system wrong, so that might be an issue.

there was a pic of a case somewhere and the sticker said the 27th was the street date?

Hulk182 · 05-27-2012, 09:37 PM

Went out to look for Bane today, no luck went to two toys r us, one walmart, and a target... they had some Dark Knight rises line but just the 3", tumbler vehicles as well. No luck on the Movie Master figures, saw Batman a few days ago but wasnt really feeling the figure something about the neck. Looking forward to finding Bane though.

A Toys R Us had a double pack with Batman and Alfred though. But figures didnt look all that great for $30 price tag.

Was browsing Amazon, and saw that they have Bane Movie Masters sweet. Went ahead and placed an order.

JamesBenjamin · 05-28-2012, 07:46 AM

Just to re-confirm, it appears Target *is* getting cases that are 4 Batman and 2 Bane. The guy I talked to yesterday just called me and told me that was what was in their sealed case.

Hopefully Target skips the case that's listed in this thread and just goes straight to the better assortment with CW in it. =/

Optimus Vader · 05-28-2012, 07:50 AM

Why did they make Batman's eyes looking up? I've seen 4 Bats and all were looking directly above him... like he's looking straight up without tilting his head up.

What you can do is but the basic black Batman and swap parts with a GI Joe Accelerator Suit Duke untill you have a nicely articulated Batman worth displaying with your collection.

.

Great idea or greatest idea?

jesterkiller · 05-28-2012, 04:01 PM

opened the case today while at work. didn't like them enough to buy all three. any idea still on the size of the bat signal once it's built? i might get them just for the bat signal if it's decent enough size

behindthemask · 05-28-2012, 05:13 PM

Are the new Batman figures in 6'' and 3.75'' scale?

Jason Abbadon · 05-28-2012, 06:20 PM

The small ones are 3.75, but only the heads are good. Do a body-swap and (for Bane) a repaint onto the new Roadblock body and you'll be happy.

Wow. Great job on that! I was just speculating, but you really ran with it and made it rock!

Very cool- the thing on the chest even looks sorta bat-ish!

I bet the Young Justice Batman would work nicely too, but the Accelerator suit really matches the Nolanverse Bats nicely.

Also, thanks for not pointing out my suckass typing- I chime in from work and have to be quick as I'm doing ten things at once.

olslick · 05-28-2012, 06:55 PM

Actually doing the Bane on the Roadblock already! And I sanded the chest down and sculpted that bat symbol.

Jason Abbadon · 05-28-2012, 07:17 PM

Very smart. Post pics as they finish off.

Didnt think much of it, but now that im trying to google nothing is coming up!

Dam should have gotten it but the price tag was really steep.

It was a steatlh batman i believe he wasnt in the bat suit.

JustryGT · 05-29-2012, 01:57 PM

The new 6" Bane, Batman , and Alfred showed up at Walmart this afternoon. They are just under $17.00 each. I left them there but they looked cool.

HawaiiNOKAOI · 05-29-2012, 02:25 PM

These look terrible IMO, time to go looking for the Battle Gear Batman from Batman Begins...

Death2Fanboys · 05-29-2012, 08:32 PM

I pick up the movie masters TDKR Batman from Walmart this evening (No Bane or Alfread available)

This was my haul from May 25th TRU

I made a comparison and the 2Pack is way better (at least for me) because the cape is cloth. Here is snapshot of both. It's the same figure only exception is the cloth and battle damage.

I'm going to skip hunting for Bane and Alfred for now. Or wait for next pay period.

Best of luck to everyone in your hunting.

snake5289 · 05-29-2012, 11:50 PM

Saw two MM Batman and Bane figures at Wal-Mart today. Not planning on picking anything up from this one.

Jason Abbadon · 05-30-2012, 01:10 AM

They could have made Joker, Scarecrow and Two Face- instead we get every color of Batman and a mexican wresteler version of Bane.

I'd pay real money if Batman is really in a bright red costume in the movie like his figure is!
