[BB Shockwave]

I am super happy, I have been asking for this for years now, ever since McFarlanes bought up DC Collectibles. They have the molds, they could always just decide to do it anytime.
At the time the series came out, I only bought a few, then decided I first gonna sell off my original TAS collection. Then by the time that happened, they cancelled the line and some stuff was impossible to get. I tried bidding on Two-Face and Scarecrow soooo many times only to see them end for 150-200$. Don't get me started on Alfred + Batcave, or Renée Montoya, or the Batwing. It'll be a great feeling to buy professor Crane for 10th of the price he goes on ebay!

Ironically, I just managed to snag the Batcycle for 107$ a month ago. But I don't regret it, since oddly, it seems this new release uses another mold, Batman does not have the helmet. EDIT: OH I just realized, they basically released Batman separately and the cycle only comes with the helmeted head! Guess I do not have to buy the cycle again, then!
I also love that they went out of their way to create new molds too, even though I already have TAS Mr Freeze, Robin and the Batcycle, I would buy them to get Condiment King, I never in a million years expected he would get a figure, thought the Lego one is the best we can expect! I hope they will continue with Two-Face, and also maybe do characters who never got a release, like TNBA Penguin, Lock-Up, TAS Baby Doll, Rupert Throne, TNBA Batwoman (great way to troop-build by making all 3 unmasked heads for her!)

Oh that is sad. Tara Strong was an OK replacement in Batman and Harley Quinn, but Arleen's voice was unmistakable and better. And yeah as I read, Harley was even named after her.

I am hoping they realize what goldmine they are sitting on, and do Superman TAS, Justice League (Unlimited) and Batman Beyond down the line.
I frankly sold all my JL(U) figures years ago, save for a few (Lobo, Tala, Cheetah) getting bored how most of them could never even stand on their own feet, and the constant body and part re-use (looking at you, buff The Shade). At the time, I expected especially after the Superman/Lois set and the JL figures they made for DC+ that they would continue with those.

Given the crazy prices of the BAFs on Ebay, I dunno... The only BAF I could buy cheap there was Titus and that's only because he is such an obscure character and nobody gives a fig about Sam Alexander Nova or his villains. On the other hand, Batman TAS has a huge following.

Re-releasing figures that everyone who collected the line has, to have the only new one be a BAF. The parts are gonna be hard to get after market. What a scummy move.

Given the insane prices of TAS Two-Face, Scarecrow, Batgirl, Ventriloquist, H.A.R.D.A.C. and Grey Ghost on Ebay, I would be happy to pay 30$ for them PLUS get a build-a-figure. I am sure I can easily sell the figures I do not need for 20-25$. Especially in Hungary, where the originals have never been released.

The black is indeed terrible on Batman. I think the ab joint is because this the biker Batman (originally that came with the Batcycle) that is meant to go on the bike and not really for anything else. They probably decided to package him separately, kill 2 birds with 1 stone? Good for me as I can skip the Batcycle I already have this way.
The shading is great actually on Scarecrow... except the brown on the human head. Robin is not bad either.
Mr. Freeze is weird, they changed his color to more purpleish blues, and originally, his gas tank is blue, as in the show. Not sure why they changed it to grey. https://batmantheanimatedseries.fand...Freeze_Gallery I was considering to replace mine due to the joints in his suit (which are made of rubber) starting to get torn on his elbows, but nah, the old colors look better.
Interesting btw that the stands do not come with any of these. I assumed they were part of the mold, guess not.
