DC Direct 6 Inch Animated Series Continues by way of McFarlane
 

This is exciting!
 

I'm holding out hope this will lead to some reissues! I missed a few crucial characters and it stings.

Not very fan of these shadows on Catwoman / Batman

Ah ha cheers McFarlane Toys. I'm actually pretty pleased about this.

Kind of odd for them to do an animated Batman Who Laughs. Its cool, but he isn't from the Diniverse and I'd imagine there are other animated figures people would want.

Aye maybe but it's been well over two years since these figures were originally made and a lot of us animated fans been quite keen for it despite not being in the original cartoons lol

Finally! Preordered and now complete….well quite a few more I’d want in that scale/style.

They are doing an official comic based in the Dini/Animated universe which has characters from DC that didn't originally make it in the show.

Glad to see these finally coming out! Really hoping they continue the line with more BTAS/TNBA figures

Of course he does more Batman related stuff.

However, I don't remember the Babadook being in BTAS.

These designs were approved before McFarlane signed an agreement to distribute on DC Direct's behalf. It's also possible these were already manufactured and sitting in a warehouse somewhere before AT&T closed DC Direct as part of the "purge" (when Dan Didio was also fired).

There was also a "carbonized" version of the Christmas Joker that was supposed to come out back when DC Direct still had control. I had that figure preordered along with these 3 from today and Vampire Batman. I had never heard about those others in that list, so I don't know where that info came from. Not sure why they're cel-shading the Catwoman. It was originally marketed as maskless Catwoman. Both her head and Batman Who Laughs heads appear to have been resculpted from the original pics of them from years ago or at least I think they are. I could be wrong. Regardless, glad to see these actually coming out.

No need to second-guess yourself, the main site is easily searchable.

They were cel-shaded back in 2020.

This is the best news I have heard in weeks! I saw the preorders today on BBTS and could barely believe it. Here is hoping they re-release Reneé Montoya, Alfred, TAS Scarecrow and Two-Face, and those scalpers asking 250$ for those will disappear...

Batman: The Adventures Continue was a direct continuation comic of Batman TAS, that reintroduced some classic characters from DC comics that TAS never got to do, and they also got toys. We had Deathstroke, Talon, Red Hood, Azrael for example. I am not the biggest fan of this edgy death metal Joker-Batman but hey if it gets us more classic characters I don't care.

It still bugs me that they never did much with the Superman: Animated Series aside from a Superman/Lois 2-pack. I was hoping they'd switch gears after doing so many BTAS themed figures and give us some of the rogues from STAS too. Particularly Lex Luthor, Metallo, Brainiac, Parasite, Darkseid and his minions, etc.

Agreed, I always imagined what this line could have been like had they expanded it, a deluxe Darkseid, deluxe Toyman with giant rubber duck, a Mala and Jax-Ur 2 pack, Lobo, so many great character designs, a shame they never continued with it
