JusticeComes Cheap
This is one heck of a deal! These figures are great because they look just like the expensive eighty dollar maquettes, but you get them at a fraction of the price. Amazon sweetens the deal even more by giving you two figures for what some stores charge for the price of one! It doesn't get any better than this! (Momentary pause to see if the Swedish Bikini Team shows up with more figures. Nope. Oh well, I had to try.) The figures look great too, like they almost walked right out of the Justice League cartoon. Batman is dark, brooding, and tough. And Wonder Woman is hot for a cartoon female. If Yogi Bear and I were out cruising for chicks, I'd have to make a play for the Amazon Princess. Anyway, they're great figures at a great deal. ... Read more

Editorial Review

A sturdy home away from home for Superman, Wonder Woman, and other superheroes, this sprawling command tower sports battle-alert bells, a mobile elevator, and a rooftop combat station armed with a missile launcher. A trip wire on one platform and a trap door in another ensnare unsuspecting enemies, while your favorite Justice League action figure runs the whole operation from the bridge. Flipping a lever folds the tower shut, revealing only a steely exterior. There's also a shuttle craft that docks near the base and fires its own projectiles. The tower stands 21 inches and runs on three AA batteries, not included. Action figures are sold separately. --Andy Boynton ... Read more

Tires!Full tires and wheels!
Not much more to add to the previous review except what a collector wants to know.I don't invest in much Mattel and Hasbro has to offer in the line of vehicles.This is because for some reason, both have a tendency to mold the tires of their vehicles on the "show" side only.Which means that they mold half a tire only, out of plastic with the other inside half open and hollow.This looks and is cheap.

Well, this Batmobile has soft rubber (or vinyl) pneumatic tires on full rims.Traction is great and the look and feel are excellent.This is a heavy vehicle as a result.This feature was the selling point for me.Well done Mattel, well done indeed.

BEST BATMOBILE EVER!!!
For those of you who are eagerly anticipating the new Batman movie, Batman Begins, then you obviously know about the very cool action figures and toys that Mattel has produced for the movie. yesterday was april 2nd, and i eagerly went to my 'toys R us' to see what Bat-goodies they had. Out of all the lines of toys that i saw, the only ones that were particularly apealing to me were the "Battle-Gear Batman" action figure, the 12"
Deluxe "Action-Cape" Batman, and, of course, the Batmobile itself. I have read sooo much about this toy (not to mention the care itself) and have wanted this ever since i saw it. So, I picked up the only 2 items I could get, the battle gear batman (the BEST BB action figure ive seen) and the Batmobile. When i got home, i tore open these items, and boy was i surprised. They were both STUNNING, but ill tell you about the Batmbile for now (duh,lol). first off, its an AMAZING looking piece of machinary (in the film AND the toy), and the sculpt on it compared to the movie is TOP NOTCH. It has very coool sounds that can be activated by the push of little red buttons on the roof of the car. the button on the left makes a loud "roaring down the street" sound that is LOUD for a toy, lol, which is a good thing, and at the same time the sound happens, the booster in the back of vehicle lights up ornange like its on fire (like the burtonmobile but MUCH bigger and cooler). the button on the right makes a "laser" shooting sound, which is strange cuz i dont think the batmobile has lasers on it, but i could be wrong, but its probably just a toy gimmick thats not in the movie to make it look cooler, im not sure, i just pretend its a machine gun, lol. at the same time the noise occurs, 2 little red lights in the front of the car light up red. the middle button, the BEST button, lol, is the most part of this toy. when you press it, 2 side missle firing launchers pop out with a bang, and then you push the red button on the missle launchers to fire the little red missles inside them. right when they pop out, you hear a "vroom" kinda sound, giving the impression that the launchers are "unloading". the same sound occurs when you push the launchers back in. also, at the same time this happens with the missle launchers, 2 different lights light up green in the front of the car that basically act as headlights. a switch on the bottom of the car turns the sounds off,on, or have the head lights stay on longer. the color of the batmbile is NOT a perfect Black color, but a dark dark purple, or a black-to fade-purple hue kinda color. you ussually notice the purple more when you have the outside lights hit it, butmost of the time its looks dark, almost black. the color is almost a perfect 10, but falls a bit short cuz of the "purple hue" when in sunlight, but it does not at all take away from the toys awsomeness and look at all. there are skid marks in some places to give it the "battle worn" look, that add to it greatly. the cockpit of the car is defiantly not like other batmbile's in general. its more like a aircraft cockpit then a drivers seat, wich i think is a awsome change, and its a very big surprise to see how detailed it is inside there. theres little computer towers and things, peerfect to house a batman figure in. This is by far the absolute best and fun batmobile of all the movie versions available, for kids AND adults. im 18, and i love batman, but have seen many many lame batman toys out there, but this batmobile makes up for that 10 fold. the action cape batman, battle gear batman, and the batmbile are the only worthwhile BB toys ive seen so far, but the batmobile is easily the best Batmbile EVER MADE!! dont hesitate to purchase this bad boy, its sooo worth it!!! ...

Great Toy
My son got this for his 4th b-day great toy its easy to put together easy to cary around and you can put your action figures in it. If your thinking of of purchasing just do it it is a great toy.

Holey rusted metal, Batman!
WOW!My younger brothers got this quite a few years ago, and the older version has different colors, but is exactly the same otherwise.This toy is amazingly fun!The chair and computer console, and the tank, all come off easily, so that was frustrating, but otherwise, all was great!

My brothers, as avid Batman fans and collectors, had a blast dropping Robin from the fall-in "glass" ceiling on the front of the mansion.The computer and it's chair are especially fun to play with.What seems to fuel a lot of imagination is the closet next to the computer screens.It can be rotated so that you put Batman in, turn it, and open the door to see Batman GONE!Whoa, right?The entire mansion itself can be collapsed, which is nice for travel to Grandma's or to the living room.

This toy supplies lots of fun, whether you like Batman or not!

Batcave
Great toy!My son got this toy several years ago, and he still plays with it frequently.It comes with the Alfred figure which you can't get anywhere else.It is also designed to work with the Shadowcast Batmobile, which just means the the Batmobile can drive through one of the walls--it just tilts up and the Batmobile goes under.My son didn't like that Batmobile because Robin couldn't ride with Batman, but the one designed for both figures is HUGE!!!It is durable, but the tank that comes off for the figures to fall in from the balcony gets harder and harder to get back on. ...

Green Lantern is almost impossible to get!
Me and my dad went to four shopping malls in San Diego and were not able to find Green Lantern. On the internet we checked a lot of sites until we finnally order it. It is amazing how difficult it was to get!

These are exactly what I've been waiting for!
I would like to express my gratitude to the people over at Mattel for putting out such great nice-looking and durable action figures.I was so fed up with the other "ugly" looking justice league action toys.What I like most is that the new large size figures have a great cartoony life-like feel to them and true to the cartoon network show.I currently own 5 of them (missing Hawkgirl, Wonder Woman and Aquaman).I have them display on top of my tv cabinet and they look spectacular.My little nephews go nuts over them.I had contacted Mattel regarding the missing incomplete 10" action figures and a representative told me that consumers will soon see the missing 10' action figures on store shelves.

He's a poser, not an action figure
My 5 yr old son and I have him, and this size Flash.While they are excellent replicas, they barely move!He's very stiff, so unless your little one is going to run around the house just holding him (and watch out if this heavy guy falls on toes!), what's the point?Buy the smaller Armor Attack line instead - moves better, fits in hand nicely, has similar nice detail -- AND has a cool detachable green attack bubble case. ...

Editorial Review

Ker-pow! A whopping 42 inches tall, with four levels, this Batcave is accessible through a secret door behind the entertainment center in Bruce Banner's swank penthouse. A transformation elevator converts Banner into the Caped Crusader; from there, he can slide down the Batpole to a bungee drop or a missile launcher that jets out from the cave. Most notable are the remote landing platforms, connected to the cave by cords and pulleys that stick easily to bedroom windows thanks to adhesive strips. Off another landing hangs a net for catching bad guys. It takes up a lot of space, but it's a fun, ingenious toy with lots of bells and whistles. --Andy Boynton ... Read more

JUNK
MY SON SAW THE NEW TV SHOW AND WANTED THE NEW BATCAVE.HE HAD THE ORIGINAL ONE BUT BOTH HIM AND I WERE IMPRESSED WITH THE SIZE. DO NOT LET THIS FOOL YOU.IT IS BUILT VERY FLIMSY. THE PARTS FALL APART EASILY.THEELEVATOR CANNOT BE USED UNLESS YOU HAVE THE PROPER BATMAN DOLLS TO PUT IN THERE . THE CARDBOARD BACKING FALLS OFF. THE STICKERS ARE A PAIN TO PUT ON.I SPENT 2 HRS ON X-MAS EVE PUTTING TOGETHER THIS CAVE.MY SON HAS IT STUCK IN A CORNER.HE HAS MORE FUN LINING UP HIS ACTION FIGURES ON THE COUCH AND USING HIS IMIGINATION THAN THIS TOY. DO NOT GET IT.THE ORIGINAL BATCAVE IS BETTER. SMALLER BUT BETTER.

Don't be scared, go get it!
I bought this wonderful toy for my 5-years-old boy's birthday. Yes, I read a lot of reviews from here, and I know a lot of people had difficulties either to fix it or keep it stable...that really worried me...but still bought it since my son insisted.Then you know what: it only took us, I mean me and my little boy, less than 30 minutes to set it up, and it worked 100% great, never fall like people said "every 2 seconds".The only thing you need to do is set this toy up against a wall, that it! My son keep playing with it everyday for more than one week, and so far never fall.
So don't be scared by those reviews, go get it if your kid like it! Good luck.

WORST TOY EVER!
After spending the 30 minutes of my time putting together the hundreds of pieces and placing all the tiny stickers in the correct spots- it fell apart completely!Its a totally unusable toy. The cardboard background doesnt even fit in properly and my son has never touched it due to how unstable and flimsy it is.It is too tall to stand on its own and comes with something to adhere it to the wall!Dont waste your time and money on this horrible product! ...

Coolest Batmobile so far
I rate this batmobile up there with the animated sereis one and the first to movies one.The rest are crrap.

NotBad!!
I got this batmobile and its not the one on the t.v. show, but it's pretty nifty! First of all the lights! Its cool , but they shoul have a button when the lights go on until you push off or a sound button. Its just that it makes sound and you have to hold it to get lights. the good thing is that it can fit a batman
really good, the missles shoot far, its durable, and it needs 3 AA batteries. (the 3-1 Batjet needs small ones.) If your a batman fan get it!! (it does not include the figure!)

UltimateBatmobile!!!
This is a great Batmobile. It's lightup sides are nice but I wish that the rocket things on the back lighted up like on the TV show. I also wish that it included a free Batman Deluxe figure! It is very durable. THE END!!!!!!!!!!! ... Read more

The Begins Action Figure To Rule Then All!!
This is a very cool figure and the best of the lot. If you have to get a Batman Begins figure to go with the AWWWsome Batmbile, then get this as soon as possible! the figure i highly detailed and looks waaay better then the "Keaton" batman figures by a long shot. the points of articulation are just enough to be able to have fun with, more articulation would have made into "knot" man, lol, so its got just the right amount, IMO. the gear he comes with is very cool too, all in the gold color to match the belt (im glad they are gold and not black, it gets boring after a while, lol). the suitcase gives us a glimpse at the "wayne enterprises" logo, and fits each gadget perfectly. the gadgets as stated before are the folding baterang which is not made of hard plastic, but of a soft rubber, which is cool too. a night vision scope that you can put on his head so he can see things from a distance, and what should have been the best gadget, the magnetic, gas-powered Grapple Gun. its the same as in the movie, just oversized for children to play with easier, as with all the gadgets. the thing that makes the grapple gun annoying is that it zips so friggin fast that it could, as stated, get frustraing, espcially for little kids, but its still fun to mess around with, so its not a big deal, its very fun to play with, just gotta be careful when it zips back up, lol. overall a superb batman begins figure, possibly the ONLY batman figiure worth gettiong in the begins line, although the grey-suited batman, partucualry the "power-punch" batman looks cool too, but this is a must for batfans everwhere. for me, ill only be getting the scarecrow, bruce-to-batman, and maaaybe the powerpunch batman, but as for the regular 5 inch figures, thats all i recomend. oh, the batmobile and action cape batman are cool as hell too!

Battle Gear in Action
The one and only Batman You have all been waiting for. The Battle Gear Batman is the action figure with the most collector value because it's movie accurate. There is a black suit, a black cape, and a gold belt. As simple as it seems, it is difficult to find a plain Batman these days with so many variations. Well this is it.

The Baman is about 5 and 3/4 of an inch tall, so it's just bellow the 6 inch line. Diffrent shades of black are used through out the body, but it's not too damaging. The logo, are piece, and the boots are darker, but not very noticable. The belt is plain gold, all around; yes even in the back below the cape. There is as much detail in the back of the toy, under the cape, as there is in the front. There are ten points of articulation on the figure, which all go in well with the toy's accesories.

The accesories included in the toy are well packed in a Wayne Enterprises briefcase. The briefcase is gray with a few details here and there to make it look like a steal briefcase. The briefcase is a bit oversized, but only because inside the briefcase, three diffrent accesories fit perfectly. One of them is a folding batarang; used by Batman to help him out in almost any situation. Another accesorie is a type of heat-seeking helmet. The helmet is also in gold, and Batman's big, pointy ears fit perfectly in this helmet due to the fact that there are openings in the helmet. The helmet goes in smoothly and when it is placed, Batman's right eye is covered with a type of binocular lense. Batman's last accesorie is a bit of a dissapointment, but doesn't ruin the figure as a whole. It is a kind of oversize gun with a string that enables batman to climb buildings easily. But the string isn't very long. The string is under 7 inches and what is more frustating is that the cable winds itself back to the gun. So as soon as you let go of the endside of the gun, the cable will shoot it self back to the gun. It can get frustrating at times if planning to play with it. The gun, just like all the accesories, is in gold as the toy's belt.

Overall, this toy is as near as perfect as it gets. It's great for display or for play with just the toy. Add in the accesories, and it's a giver. A must for you or the little ones.

Best of the Series
If you're looking for the one "actual" Batman in the toy line, this is it.This is the one that has the closest resemblance to the actual movie costume.

As far as the figure itself, I am very pleased.The body is nicely proportioned, and it has a decent amount of points of articulation.Not as many as I would have wanted, but not crowded, either.The sculpting is very good on the detail of the suit, especially the soles of the boots.Paint is all right, although there isn't much to paint, but I believe quality varies depending on which figure you get.

As far as accessories, Battle Gear Batman delivers in spades.his suitcase carries a grapple gun, batarang, and optical device.The grapple gun does not fire, but rather retracts when pulled out.The batarang has a nice hinge in the middle, but it is kind of hard to get it in Batman's hand.The case they come in is nice as well, with a "Wayne Enterprises: Applied Sciences Division" label on it (not a cheap sticker, either).

Overall, this figure is the best of the lot.All Batman fans and people eagerly awaiting the new film should pick one up before he sells out. ... Read more

OUTSTANDING collectible for Batman fans!!
There's only one thing I can say about this Batman figure; AWESOME!!Mattel has done a wonderful job with this figure, except for the cape is fixed more to being behind his back than being detachable to set as one pleases.I'm going to try and cut some fabric to make him various capes so he can stay in some of his coolest poses that require the cape spread of course.That qualm of mine is not worth downgrading the 5 star rating I give it however.Durability is given 3 stars because of the frailty of the utility belt; like stated in the other reviews please be careful with it. If you are a fan, GET IT,what are you waiting for?!

Best Batman
This is a Batman designed by a group called the Four Horseman especially for Mattel.It is the best looking Batsout there.It is a big version of Mattel's "zip line" Batman.This one has a retrctable cable or "zip line" for quick get aways.Several others should be forthcoming, including Robin, Joker & more Batman looks in special outfits, including the 70's Silver Age Batman with a blue cape and yellow circle bat emblem.Very durable.Cape is a combo of molded plastic at top and fabric at the bottom.Just buy it!

Very ULTIMATE Batman
Fantastic figure!A wonderful collectible, or just plain fun for kids.Wonderful sculpting makes this a great display piece, and the huge Batbase is a great touch.The accessories are a little flimsy, but for display purposes, they're just fine.Mattel did a great job with this one! ... Read more

Love this toy!
We have five of these large Justice League action figures and they are GREAT.Our 2 boys (5 and 3yrs.) play with them every day, and they play hard.The toys are durable and attractive.I like that the arms and legs have only one point of articulation.It makes it easy for my kids to make them stand.Some of the smaller action figures frustrate them because they tip over too easily. Wonder Woman's legs sometimes get out of whack but they are easily fixed.We really love these and we are hoping to find Aquaman and Green Lantern in our stores soon.

Superman.....Super Toy
I bought Superman, along with Batman and Aquaman, for my 6 year-old son's birthday - he loves them!!Along with his 2 younger brothers, the 3 of them can imitate the action-packed adventures they watch on the TV show Justice League Unlimited.I love the durability and the fact that there are no small, little, removable parts to lose and scatter throughout the house.We'll be purchasing The Flash and a couple of the others for Christmas.

EXCELLENT FOR DISPLAY IN ITS BOX
I must say i love this toy. I am a collector and because of that i wont open it to play with it. i think its just perfecto for display it in his box. Its big, excellent replica from the tv show and very cheap compare to his price. I already have the whole set (aquaman, martian, batman, superman, green lantern, wonder woman an flash). Hawkgirl is coming out late october 2004. As an action figure its not that good to play with it due to his lack of articulation, but as i said before, for dispaying its just perfetc. It comes in a window box package. Get'em all while u can! ... Read more

Mattel does it again
Great Job Mattel!I'm glad to see that ToyBiz didn't get their hands on the rights to do this action figure.The head mold is great!Looks like Christian Bale; has solid detail, great articulation.I bought two, one to remain in the box and one to take out.I'm a collector and always look to see the kind of job Mattel does on action figures (the Max Steel line was awesome) and they really outdid themselves on this one.Awesome job, Mattel!!

Awesome Batman!
I got this figure yesterday at ToysRus andwas pleased with it. The toy has great detail, it looks better than Mattel's other 18 inch Batman, with the base and accesories, and I thought that figure is cool too. There's only one accesory, a Batarang, but that's ok, less to lose! The cape feature is alright, it looks a little goofy, but the good news is that it is made to come off! It just pops off, and can go back on easily! The figure looks a lot better with the action thingy off. I also like the fact the cape is BIG! It wraps around Batman well and makes him look more imposing. I didn't like that about other Batman figures, the cape was always too small, batman has a large cape in the comics. Anyway, this is a great figure, if you like Batman and are thinking about this figure, go ahead and get it! You'll be happy with it!

One of the best!
I've collected Batman action figures since I was a toddler, starting with Mego's 8-inch figure, all the way to the modern DC Direct High-End collector figures. I have to say, with the possible exception of the classic Mego 12-inch magnetic figure, this is my favorite 3-d interpretation of the Dark Knight. From his highly detailed movie-accurate costume to a dead-on likeness to actor Christian Bale, it's just utterly cool looking. Batman seems to have a slight smirk on his face, reminiscent of Bale's smile at the end of "Equilibrium" Plus, there it's loaded with articulation (joints, if you're not hip to action figure jargon) and he's got a cool "action cape" that opens up lake a glider(like on movie posters) so kids should have hours of fun with this thing. Batman also comes with a Batarang, my only(minor) complaint is the Batarang could use a holster in the Utility Belt, so kids don't lose it.

Smaller figures easier to move
I got this for my 5 year old because he loves all the Justice League guys, particularly Flash. It looks cool but actually at the end of the day he's played way more with the smaller 5" figures than this large one. I think it's because it's hard to move the arms and legs and even when you do they just kind of stick out- it's just not that interesting. I could see this being a neat collector item but in my experience it hasn't been a hit as a true toy. We're sticking with the smaller figures.

Its Ok.
It is a flash figure. Until DC Comics and Mattel decide to do something along the lines of DC Legends, similar to Toy Biz' Marvel Legends, we have to be thankful for ANYTHING that comes out.

Unfortunately, however, there is no detail to this line of figures. The bright side is, they do resemble the animated series, in that it is as 2 dimensional, as a drawing.

Nevertheless, since there seems to be a lack of variety in the DC world for reasonablly priced superhero figures, some accolades and applause is deservant for Mattel. We can only hope they drastically improve on the design quality; and, thank them for not gouging us on this line. A much better value than the 4 inch versions.

Where's Green Lantern?
I think these large Justice League figures are great. I personally am not disappointed in the lack of articulation (joints where the figure's limbs can move), since I'm getting these for my very young son, and he doesn't care. Besides, these figures are done in the highly simplified "cartoon" style, which to me indicates that they'd naturally be less intricate mechanically. My GRIPE is that many of these toys are not shipped in equal quantities, so there are fewer of one than the others. I've seen tons of Batman figures, but not one Green Lantern, for instance. Many of these scarcer figures are horded by collectors/dealers, leaving people like me who actually want to buy them for their children with an incomplete set. It's sad this is the way the toy business works at times. STILL, these are great toys--very iconic, very well designed. ... Read more

Matt's Review
This toy is awesome. Some of the pieces come off but I still love it. My dad said it was better than my other toys. I got this toy because I got a good grade on my report card. I got to say, I love this toy.

''Batboat or Batjet?''
I HAVE A SIX YEAR OLD SON WHO IS COMPLETELY OBSESSED WITH THE SHOW THE BATMAN.HE GETS UPBETWEEN 10 AND 11 EVERY SATURDAY TO WATCH THE SHOW.HE SAW THIS ONE EPISODE WHERE BATMAN IS CHASING JOKER,BUT IT LOOKS LIKE HES IN A BOAT(BATJET).AFTER MY SON HAD SEEN THE VEHICLE HE ASKED TO GO TO TOYSRUS. WHEN WE GOT THERE ALL WE SAW WAS THE BATMOBILE,BATCAVE,AND MOTORCYCLE.MY SON WAS VERY DISAPPOINTED.BUT WHEN I WAS DOING MY CHRISTMAS SHOPPING WITH MY WIFE WE NOTICED IT ON A SHELF RIGHT NEXT TO THE BATMOBILE ALONG WITH SOME NEW FIGURES.I PICKED IT UP AND NOTICED IT SAID 3-IN-ONE BATJET.I FIGURED IT WAS A TYPO.WHEN MY SON RECIEVED IT ON CHRISTMAS DAY HE WAS VERY HAPPY.ALTHOUGH IT SAD BATJET ON THE PACKAGE HE STILL THINKS ITS A BATBOAT.IT ALSO BECOMES A CYCLE WHICH I THINK IS PRETTY COOL. I GIVE THIS PRODUCT A 4 OUT OF 5 BECAUSE MY SON ENJOYED IT AND SO DID I.

NOT WORTH THE PRICE PAID
My 6 year old son spent his own money on this toy (about $20).He played with it for an hour and then asked to return it.He said that it doesn't have 3 toys in one, which one is led to believe from the packaging.It should be labeled 2 in one, which would better reflect the packaging.

The wingtips fall off when snapping the motorcycle part into the flight part.It was difficult for my son to put the pieces together.

The noises are intermittent.I checked the batteries and it requires 3 of the A76 batteries (also used for hearing aids).These are very expensive.

The toy is so specific that one is required to buy the exact Batman to use it.

This was a very disappointing purchase.We do not recommend this toy. ... Read more

Editorial Review

We thought this was the coolest of the three Batman Deluxe Figures. Tech Armor Batman wears graphite colored armor adorned with a silvery green breast plate and shin guards. He's articulated at the forearms, wrists, waist, knees, legs, and neck. He's got an arsenal of weaponry including a laser cannon, claw arm, disc launcher and disc missile. The claw arm, which snaps tightly shut, is attached to a big mechanical-looking arm that branches from one of Batman's shoulders; you can also swap out the claw for the laser cannon. On the other side, the disc launcher clips on to his forearm, ready to fire a green disc-shaped missile with the Batman emblem cut out of it. He's got a stern look on his well-sculpted face, under the standard-issue bat mask with very pointy ears. His cape is cloth and hangs a little weakly off his back. As with the other two deluxe figures, we found the accessories a little hard to use; there are no instructions, and other than the pictures on the packaging, no guidance as how to use or attach the weaponry. --Megan Sullivan ...

Impressive
This is possibly the first really worth while batman action figure toy I've seen in a long time. The sculpting is very precise. When I get this action figure it will be the pride of my collection.And if your worried that it won't be worth the money. I assure you that it will be well worth the money.

Dark Knight with all the trimmings.
This is another one of mattel's repaints and hence Batman variations. But unlike several of the other figures, this one actually works for me. It shows Batman as a futuristic knight with a bunch of techno accessories. The color scheme also works great. One downside about the accessories, as with all mattel figures ther doesn't seem to be any instructions on how to place them on the figure save for the picture on the back of the box. And since, this one has by far the most accessories it gets a little confusing for kids (some adults also). All in all, the good outweighs the confusing therefore it's a good buy. ... Read more

Could have been better.
The figurines look OK. Even the strangely-colored Batman seems so work. I do hate the absence of the stand, however. The toys would not stand on their own, and, because of the way the joints are made, they cannot be sat down either. ... Read more

Beautiful Rendition of the Prince of Darkness
I bought this more as a display toy and an addition to my Batman collection than a toy to play with. Right now it is sitting on my book case. It's streamlined and majestic and totally represents the aura the character gives off.

I have to agree with many of the reviewers this "toy" is primarily for a display than anything else.I think that it is absolutely beautiful and I recomend it to Batman (junkies) but I really can not really say anything about its value as a toy for a child.

Looks great, but not the best toy ever
I bought this Batman, as well as the Superman from the same series, for my three-year-old.They are really great looking toys, but for play, they aren't that hot.As others have said, the toys are poorly proportioned, and don't stand well on their own.Also, they are barely articulated - no elbows, no knees, etc.

My three-year-old thinks they are great at present, just because of the way they look, and they certainly are well enough built to hold up to him playing with them for over six months now.But I don't think they're going to be very exciting, as he gets older and other options are out there.

Should be a display toy
My 4 year old loves action figures.He plays rough, and he uses his toy a lot.This action figure should have been sturdy and durable, considering its size.It broke in half within a month.He didn't drop it.It broke by use.The toy could move at the waist, side to side.Then one day it snapped in half at the waist.I would not recommend this for young children that could hurt themselves with it. ...

Fine Figure, Suffers from Accessories
This is the "Batman Begins" line's obligatory Bruce Wayne figure.It depicts (I suppose) Bruce's training as a ninja to be Batman.

The figure itself is very nice.It has the 10 points of articulation which appears to be standard for this line, which, as I said before, is less than I hoped for but not crowded.Paint is okay, especially in the detail work (Bruce's eyes), although I noticed at least three flaws in mine.The sculpting is good, especially Bruce's face.

The accessories are where real points are lost here.Bruce comes with gear to make him both a ninja and Batman.The ninja gear consists of two, for lack of a better term, "shoulder gauntlets," a sword that clips to his right forearm, and a ninja mask.The sword is all right, but I had some trouble getting the shoulder gauntlets to stay on and they could be lost easily.The ninja mask is not made of plastic, but a soft rubber.I suppose this was the only way to do it, but it looks prone to tearing.As for the Batman gear, it's a one piece cape, cowl, chestpiece, and belt assembly like we're used to.This, however, is not of hard plastic, but of that same rubber material as the ninja mask.This, more so than the ninja mask, worries me in terms of tearing, and I can just see an overzealous child tearing it and having a fit.So, be careful with it, PLEASE!This brings it down in durability marks in conjunction with the ninja mask.The paint on the Batman piece is a tad sloppy as well.

Overall, one of the line's definite must-haves for the collector.Children will probably want this too, and I stress again to be careful when using the masks.It is, however, a decent figure, and certainly one of the better Bruce Waynes to come along. ... Read more
