I think they may have. I've wondered when Red Hood would finally appear in an Arkham game.

So if this true, then Harley and the Arkham Knight himself could be the other two figures.

They may be saving a Riddler for Wave 4. Maybe the Jim Carrey version?

[thewriteguy]

Never mind, guys -- just did some research on Amazon and discovered that this is simply an all-black version of the Batman figure mold used for the "Ultra Strike" and "Saw Strike" variants (both released in 2012).

[thewriteguy]

So if we assume this could be Wave 3, based on Arkham Knight

1. Batman
2. Two-Face
3. Scarecrow
4. Red Hood (spoiler from the game)
5. Harley Quinn
6. The Arkham Knight

Then Wave 4 could be another TV/movie wave. Perhaps it will consist of:

1. The Riddler (Jim Carrey)
2. Arrow (from the CW series, "Arrow")
3. Deathstroke (from "Arrow")
4. The Flash (from the new CW series)
5. ???
6. ???

If/when we get Multiverse Arrow figures, I would want to see a whole set dedicated to the show. There are more than enough characters that they could do. The Arrow, Black Canary, Deathstroke, Bronze Tiger, Deadshot, the Dark Archer, Huntress, Solomon Grundy, and Roy Harper. Not to mention characters still to come.

There should also be more than enough Flash characters that, if/when they get around to it, they shouldn't have any trouble dedicating an entire set of figures to it.

Not necesarily. Red Hood could easily be referring to the pre-'oker Red Hood, who was in Arkham Origins.

A Jim Carrey Riddler figure would be cool, as would a Tommy Lee Jones Two-Face. Round out the set with Chris O'Donnel Robin, Alicia Silverstone Batgirl, Helen Slater Supergirl, and Gene Hackman Lex Luthor, and you have a nice group of figures. Assuming they have access to their likenesses, that is.

The list of very notable costumed DC heroes who have appeared in movies or TV is narrowing. But here are my wild guesses for the last two:

5. Batman (Val Kilmer)
6. Joker (Jack Nicholson -- yes, Mattel finally secures the rights to his likeness!)

You know you could have just edited your post to add those... right?

Anyways, as much as I would like to see a Val Kilmer Batman figure in this line, I doubt they'll make one. Same goes for Clooney. That said, I wouldn't mind being wrong. Especially if they released Clooney as Bruce Wayne, rather than Batman.

Also, I don't think securring Nicholson's likeness will be an issue. Mattel hasn't used it yet, but other companies have.

this is why I have been loving this line. by the time I have yet to see a reused body other than batman. didn't Infinite heroes use the same buck for about 80 % of their figs?

[snake5289]

More or less.

I'd be more concerned about Mattel getting the rights to Kilmer and Clooney. Val has a rep for being difficult to work with and Clooney still seems embarrassed regarding his involvement in B&R. But I certainly wouldn't complain if Mattel is able to do it.

Oh, and rather than a list where I will inevitably forget someone, I'll just say give me all of the primary DC movie characters pre-Bale/Cavil. Imagine getting a DCMV version of Cyborg Vera (Annie Ross)! The rest of the movie may have been really goofy, but her appearance was genuinely creepy to me.

Hell, I'll even take DCMV figures of Routh and Spacey, though it is my least favorite Superman film (yes, even lower than Superman IV: The Quest for Peace).

Agreed. The Hot Toys version, for example.

I'd love to see the Batman & Robin O'Donnell Robin figure made at least actually. That costume minus the cape is pretty much movie version nu52 Nightwing. Clooney and Kilmer batsuits should probably be done though eventually, same to Adam West and Bale for a complete evolution of before Afleck.

I hope that means we see the two Robins too.
It'd be hilarious to see what a classic cinema JL could be.
Reeves Superman has been made, and keaton Batman.
Now we need:
Supergirl
Flash (Wesley Shipp)
Wonder Woman
Shazam

Would also love it if they do:
Reynolds GL
Smallville (Costumed heroes and villians only)
Arrow/Flash (CW)

And of course the upcoming movies versions.

As for Smallville, I'd be fine without them in DCMV. TBH, there's no precedent that this line will have any TV versions yet. We're all assuming Mattel's going to do something from Arrow due to its popularity, but nothing I've seen from them points to it yet.

Besides, if they're going to do TV, better they start with the '66 Batman series, since they already have licenses for most of the actor likenesses. We might even get a 4" Yvonne Craig Batgirl finally.

[snake5289]

Not to mention the West Batman series is going to be released on Blu-Ray/DVD in it's entirety this November.

[Nymesys Prime]

I don't see them doing smallville in this scale.i would think if they were it would have been done. as for Arrow...I think it was shear luck we got a 6 inch Arrow considering they completely ignored the Smallville Arrow. That's almost like asking for Birds of Prey figures...don't see that happening. But the line continuation with perhaps 66 Batman movie figs and a Jim Carey Riddler would be awesome.

My list would be:
Clooney Batman masked and unmasked
Robin(odonnell)
Batgirl(Silverstone and Craig)
Riddler (Jim Carey)
TwoFace(TOMMY Lee Jones)
Poison Ivy
Kilmer Batman
Max Schreck
Lex Luthor(gene Hackman)
66 Batman and Robin
66 joker,riddler and catwoman(all 3 catwomen)
just to mix in some obscure characters
EggHead
King Tut
Green Hornet and Kato

DCC made the recent 6.75" Arrow figures, and also made the Smallville version of Green Arrow back when they were still DC Direct.

The only 6" television superhero toys Mattel has made recently has been the Batman '66 line. I think we're all hoping they branch out, no matter the direction.

At this point my most requested Multiverse figure would have to be Robin, whether he's from a movie, tv, video game or comic book. As long as it isn't the piss-poor Dark Knight Rises version. Robin John Blake... pfft!

Would you guys want the bat suits with or without nipples?

Well you want them to be accurate don't you?

Yikes... I actually wiped that from my memory. It's amazing that I like JGL as an actor despite his involvement in those two movies.

Still, I suppose even an officer Blake figure wouldn't be such a bad idea after further consideration. You could easily make several GCPD cops just by swapping the head - including a Lt. James Gordon, probably.

[snake5289]

Only need 3 GCPD officers imo though: Gordon, Bulluck, and Montoya. Granted my knowledge of the GCPD is limited to those 3 characters.

The batgirl suit never really had nipples...much to my 10 year old selfs disappointment..........

[trebleshot]

Um, yes it did. Not much in the way of detailing, but they are there.

At 3.75"-scale, those details would be really hard to notice anyway. So if they did Multiverse figures of the B&R costumes, I think they could leave them off.

As for accuracy, they blew that when they gave Keaton's masked version the ability to turn his head.
