Mattel's DCSH Series 3 Batman looks awesome!
Yik-Hai Chan of The Comic Book Bin has posted an excellent review of the new Batman from series 3 of Mattel's DC Superheroes line, and it sounds like this figure is an incredible improvement over the Batman figure from series 1:
Supposedly a generic Batman figure, fans should instantly recognize a Jim Lee inspiration, especially in the size of the Bat-ears of the cowl, the use of blue and grey rather then black as well as the stockier and solid appearance. What makes this figure different from other Batman figures is the extra details in the costume included which I don’t believe is seen before, even in the comics. This includes seams and threads on the gloves, boots and utility belt, giving the figure a more realistic feel.
The reviewer lives in the UK, where series 3 has started hitting shelves. These figures should be available stateside in the next few weeks, so keep your eyes peeled for this great new figure, as well as Azrael, Robin and Mr. Freeze!
Hey Dan, thanks for posting about my review and glad that you liked it. I also have bigger images of the ones used (plus some extras) that I posted on various forums including:
