Nice. Saw this guy at my local LCS (Vault of Midnight in Ann Arbor, btw), and I asked the guy who runs it if any other figures came in. Unfortunately, looks like Mattel just shipped him a full case of Injustice Batmen. I want my Planet X Batman already, dammit!

I really want this Batman, but I can't find any figures besides the Penguin. Can anyone help me out with it? I love the Injustice costumes.

trebleshot · 04-11-2013, 12:04 PM

Damn, Bruce looks pissed.

...well, more than usual.

I would definitely pick that one up if I ever saw it at retail (and had the cash on me at the time). Since I don't collect 6" figures in general, I won't go out of my way to get it, but I can easily make it an impulse buy.

I saw a few of the Injustice Batman the other day when I was hunting. Not really a fan of most of the Unlimited figs other than Batgirl that I haven't seen in person yet.

SquirtleSquad7 · 04-11-2013, 01:08 PM

I really want to get into 6" DC, but all the good ones that I'd want are so expensive now, and I can't find any newer ones that catch my eye. I'm hoping to start with that Batman.

A side note, I TOTALLY recommend the Injustice comics. They're wonderful. Probably the only reason I'm so in love with that Batman.

It's kind of a disappointment loose to be honest. Doesn't feel like a 4H mold.

Been real busy lately and haven't been here much. Don't know if this has been said somewhere, but BBTS has preorders up for DC Unlimited wave 4. Green Lantern and . . .wait for it. . .Batman. So Batman gets Batman Unlimited and 20% of the space in DC Unlimited. Sheesh!

midicity · 04-11-2013, 10:03 PM

I've seen the injustice batman, he's really small. Looks more like 5.5" scale instead of 6". I think I will likely pass on him

That's because DC Limited to Batman wasn't marketable.

^^^ Lol!!!! Nicely done!

trebleshot · 04-15-2013, 05:13 AM

And the whole time I was reading Batman's lines, I heard it in Bale's "voice". Deadpool's was, of course, Ryan Reynolds at his most Van Wilder. And Bane was naturally Tom Hardy (since Bane didn't really have one in B:Forever).

Great job!

In other news, saw the Injustice Batman at TRU over the weekend. Unfortunately, $20 is not impulse-buy territory for me, so I had to pass. Maybe if I see it at Walmart or Target for a more reasonable $15-16, I'll bite.

Dr Kain · 04-15-2013, 06:16 AM

I saw him at Walmart for $16 and still refused to buy him. My shelf space is running thin, so I need to go for only the characters I must have.

Jajajha!! Great Fat-Away Ad!! Jjajajaa!!

Okay, I need to say this straight up, excluding the Injustice stuff, Larfleeze is by far the worst DCU figure I have ever seen. The lack of any sort of bicep swivels really really hurts this figures on a massive level. For a figure that Mattel has made us wait this long for, he was not worth it. His arms are horrible. And like Saint Walker, his ankle joints have NO motion at all. What is the point of the ankle joints if you can't even do anything with them? Then you have the quality control, which is very poor. His lower legs, upper pieces to his thigh swivels, and arms are a completely different shade of orange from his torso and upper legs/lower thighs. WTF is Mattel doing to this line? Then I have paint flakes all around his joints. I've seen bootlegs with better quality than this. I'm sorry, but to those who complain about people buying them early off ebay from Chinese sellers, there is absolutely no difference in the poor quality you get with those than there are with the final product. This figure is a travesty. In fact, outside of Phantom Stranger, this entire year has been a joke. Saint Walker was extremely limited in his articulation. Elongated Man was missing way too many accessories. And then we have Flash next month that seems to have absolutely NO accessories, not even those lightning bolt things. Mattel, get your ****ing act together or just tell us you are done with the line because it clearly shows you aren't even trying anymore!!!!!!!!!
