Customer Review: THE Batman to get for your movie-based superhero collection!
Summary: 5 Stars
I've decided to form a solid collection of movie version superhero figures, and of course, I want them all to match in size. Apparently, I'm not the only one who feels this way, because recently they created a new line of Spider-Man figures due to folks complaining about the first ones released for Spider-Man 3 being smaller than those released for the previous films. I was a nut for Star Wars figures as a kid (still am), but now the desired size for everything else is around 6 inches tall. Thankfully, the DC Comics films are finally following suit with a special "Movie Masters" line of four 6-inch action figures from the upcoming sequel to "Batman Begins", "The Dark Knight", which are just the right size to stand next to my first film Spidey and Mary Jane, Mark 03 Iron Man, uniformed Wolverine and Rogue, and 9-inch first film Hulk. Yeah, I know, I have a lot of catching up to do with the other X-Men, Daredevil, Fantastic Four, and Silver Surfer movie figures out there that I'll have to get online or something. Did they ever make a 6 inch movie Blade, Elektra, or Punisher?
Now, Batman is probably my favorite superhero, and "Batman Begins" is still probably my favorite superhero movie ("Iron Man" was awesome though) and I am so psyched for part 2, so this was a very cool discovery for me. There are four figures in this line that is aimed at collectors, Batman, Joker, a Clown Henchman, and a Chase figure of Batman without his mask, all with higher detail and realism than the larger line of slightly smaller Dark Knight figures targeted at kids who are really going to play with them. You know, the line with all the cheesy Batmans in costumes he never wears and the Joker who looks like he's nearly bald on one side.
While the very cool Movie Masters Joker seems to be nearly as hard to find as the Chase figure (no doubt due to the recent, tragic loss of actor Heath Ledger), it is still rather premature (as I write this review BEFORE the film's release) to pay the outrageous prices being charged for these figures online. I just picked up my Batman figure tonight at the biggest retail store in America for around 11.50 plus tax, and they had plenty of him and the Henchman. If you're there at the right time and place, I'm sure you can still land the Joker and Chase figure too. But, on to the details!
The Batman figure, is, as I said, 6 inches tall and looks perfect alongside the various Marvel figures I mentioned before. He is intensely detailed and absolutely fantastic looking, though I still recommend buying these in person so you can inspect the paint jobs. I took a while to find one I was happy with in that mouth/chin area where the skin paint is, and you have to check the eyes too. The cape is molded plastic, which I have mixed feelings about. It looks very cool though, no doubt. A word about the costume though. Frankly, and while I'm sure it is totally accurate to the movie, I wish they had downplayed the armored look of it with this sequel. Bat's suit now looks more like armor than it did in Batman Begins, while I wish it looked a bit sleeker since, truly, Batman should be wearing tights (sounds silly and it's probably less realistic, but I've seen some fan films online that totally pull it off). At the very least, I wish they'd made his suit with gray and black other than pure black. In some areas, it's a slightly less dark black, but it still could only be called black. I don't love the fact that you can barely notice his bat symbol on his chest. Still, like I said, it's beautifully detailed and I suspect entirely accurate to the new film. Gotta put the blame on the filmmakers for that one. Anywho, the figure has at least 18 points of articulation. I see one more possible point at the ribcage area, but I'm not sure about it. If it's an articulation point, it's a tricky one. His head is nicely articulated too, much in the way I expected my new Iron Man movie figure to be (but that one didn't seem to be). Overall, we're talking about one very pleasing Batman movie figure.
As for the accessories, they kinda dropped the ball on that one. You get a Batman mask that is like 3 inches long from chin to points, making absolutely no sense, and also a Gotham PD evidence bag to put it in before you store it away with all those other useless accessories. Definitely, a batarang and a little Joker card would have been much more appreciated. The Joker in this line has an awesome extra of an actual size movie replica Joker card. Extras aside though, this Batman figure is totally a must own. If you're looking for "Dark Knight" figures for yourself rather than your kids, go for these Movie Masters versions. They don't say "Movie Masters" on the front (they're just called that in the description on the back), but you'll know you've found them by a comparison with all the other Dark Knight figures out there. These are a bit larger, fewer, in a different package, more realistic, and yet only around 3 dollars or so more. Now, they just need to up the numbers on the Joker figures and also make the Scarecrow, Liam Neeson as Ra's Al Ghul, and perhaps Gordon too. And I definitely need a 6-inch "Superman Returns" figure now. Perhaps Lois *drool* and Lex too?
