BATMAN - Arkham Origins IN MY HANDS!!!
« on: February 20, 2014, 10:05:18 PM »
I saw them in an out-of-the-way backwoods Walmart tonight - Batman, an armored Batman, Bane, Mr. Freeze, Azrael, Deadshot.  If it is a 12-pack case, they appear to be packed 2x per case.  I bought 2x Deadshots and a Mr. Freeze.  Passed 2x Banes (they are BIG GUYS!), an Azrael (if his wrist-blades had been straight, it would have been tough to pass him up! He looks like Altair from Assassin's Creed, too - very awesome), 2x regular Batmans, 1x armored Batman (gauntlets appear to be separate), and left one Mr. Freeze on the shelf.  I may regret having left him, once I open the one I bought, tho!

I'll shoot some pics of Deadshot and Mr. Freeze when I open them.  They all had VERY NICE detailing and look to have the Marvel-type articulation, but the exaggerated musculature of Marvel is NOT present on the Batman figs.  I have plans for Azrael and Bane, later.

I saw these on the pegs tonight and almost broke down and bought Mr. Freeze, Azrael, and Deadshot. They looked fantastic super arty masterpieces for less than Black Series Figures! I can see why you get em Doc.

Oh, yes.  A lot more realistic looking than most DC-based figures and actually ARTICULATED, unlike the last 3.75" Batman offerings.

They were awesome. I am seriously thinking about going back to get a couple perhaps just to cobble up for kit-bashes or what not. That Azrael would be good for any ninja or sword type hooded warrior, that Mr. Freeze would make a good space zombie or underwater something, and heck I could go on and on.
