Agreed, I guess I am going to have to make a custom.

Sucks Multiverse never got an Arkham version to work as a stand-in at the very least.

What are we looking at here? No pics are showing up for me.

I bought Gordon and the cop car today.
its super cheap but looks a lot nicer than it seems.
I wish the numbers were stickers so you could easily hace a few for the GCPD.

Was just pictures of two of Riddler's Gotham costumes.

Its a long shot but does anyone have that 3.75 TDKR ninja Bruce Wayne figure?
Im just wondering about the size of the head relative to later 3.75 DC or MU figures.

Here it is on a GI Joe Retaliation Red Ninja body and the MU Prof X(which is a Joe body). Typical MU figures are bigger than Joe bodies.

Picked up this at Walmart (later returned it). Tag said $19.99, but it rang up $15.99. Battle Damaged wingsuit Bat's and a dirtied up Batcycle.

Thank you!

I was basically just looking for a decent Bruce Wayne head for literally any Batman figure.
My MU Batman customs are using a repainted Reed Richards head.
Hadn't even thought about it in years until I found my TDK suited Bruce in a tub recently though that wasn't a ball joint.
Still sad we never got

The new Batman line really revitalized my love of the scale and im actually working on a 3rd iteration of my an MU Batman and this time im going for an Arkham Origins design.

Autobot_Goldbug · 03-19-2022, 10:38 PM

I don't think we even got those batarangs either

snake5289 · 03-19-2022, 10:56 PM

Not to my knowledge no. If I recall most of the Multiverse figures didn't come with any accessories.

Its weird how certain companies are with stuff like that.
Mattel wouldn't give us almost anything but gave us the 89 grapple gun,
The Batman line even more clearly aimed at little kids will give us tiny batarangs but the grapple gun is huge and a silly color.

Madame Warlock · 03-20-2022, 06:06 PM

Getting a 3D Printer soon. My plan is to get some TPU(or maybe PETG?) and print capes to replace the flimsy cloth capes that come with the Spinmaster figures. Going to see if I can get like a "starter set" of different smaller spools since i need red, black and white (Superman, Batwoman and Shazam).

Nice, spinmaster capes feel like they are going to get destroyed just opening a figure lol.

Imagine they want to steer clear of "relaistic" weapon look. The grapple gun is silly, the pistols are huge red tasers. But also I guess, practicality. Larger, bright weapons are easier for a kid to keep up with. At least a little. I guess?

I'm working on a Harvey Bullock custom. If anyone has any suggestions for a plastic trench coat that would work well on the Penguin figure I'd appreciate the help. The largest I have are the multiverse hush, MU Blade, and MU Gambit/XMO Sabretooth. They're all too small. Looks more like I'm trying to make a Chris Farley Tommy Boy custom.... I imagine it would need to come from a smaller figure from a 5" or 6" line. I imagine I'd have to shorten it but if it's a good fit to the body that's what matters. Also a hat. I intend to keep the noggin but calm down those eyebrows. But I'm also struggling to find a hat to fit.

Any recommendations appreciated. Thanks!!!

Im not sure if it would work but 1 size up there is JLU line, The Question's coat maybe.

I ordered the movie Batcave from Target online, and I’m really loving it. The scale of the pieces is terrific, and I love how you can attach the costume pieces and Batarangs to the work desk.

But those stairs! They are huge, can’t wait to fit them into one of my dioramas. A bunch of bad guys lined up along them would look stellar.

Specter · 03-23-2022, 11:15 AM

Its so weird the glove accessories with Catwoman and the cowl in that set, motorcycle helmet but no Catwoman mask

Anybody have the old TNBA RC Batmobile?

Captain Morgan · 03-26-2022, 09:54 AM

Has anyone heard any recent news on the Spin Master DC Heroes Unite line? I'm still seeing the older waves restocked around me.

Specter · 03-27-2022, 04:21 PM

Is there anyone out there still making custom Batman gadgets in this scale?
I could use a few grapple guns

Antony916 · 03-28-2022, 09:26 AM

I had my eye on this set since I first saw it. But at 40 bucks I couldn't do it. Every time I went to Target I kept checking in on it and when it was reduced to 35 I still couldn't pull the trigger. I'm glad I waited because this weekend I scanned it and although the price hadn't been changed on the aisle it scanned at $11.99. If your interested in this set too it wouldn't hurt to take the extra time and scan the barcode. I'm super happy I held out buying it so long.

Specter · 04-03-2022, 04:21 PM

with Spinmaster really bringing it on the vehicles
Im starting to consider if I want to make my own capes for my customs that are using plastic/rubber ones.

WOW just received that set and the Bale head on Marvel Universe Chameleon almost looks made for the Multiverse line.
Looks perfect with Multiverse Joker, Deadshot and Deathstroke.

Looks good on the Hiya Injustice Batman as well with modification.

Is it a Target exclusive? Searching for it online doesn't bring up the set because the keywords are so generic...

I'm still really pissed off how few of the Spinmaster figures ultimately made their way over here. Never seen a Lex or Wonderwoman, no Batwing etc.
