The Dark Knight Rises Movie Masters: Official Discussion

[Daxceon]

Hey, can someone who has them and has opened them put them side by side with the Dark Knight figures? I for one need to see that.

Yeah i actually pre-ordered a case from EntertainmentEarth.com where i get pretty much all of my figures. $99.00 with free shipping for the Wave 2 case assortment (x2 Batman, x2 Catwoman, x1 Bane and x1 Alfred). I also pre-ordered x1 John Blake figure and x1 secret character for $16.99 each.

Figured if i find any in the wild they will be my openers so i can set up the Bat Symbol

[mikey1974]

i have Bats and Bane pre-ordered through amoktime,who say they already have them in stock,but cannot ship them til the 27th. they had Alfred too,but when i try to order him it says it cannot be ordered,so i guess he's pre-sold out already?

Catwoman i got preordered through entertainment earth.

gonna hope for Alfred and Blake at retail. Secret Character,i'll see who he is before deciding to order him or wait for retail. and an interesting aside,amoktime says it's listed as needing EIGHT figures to complete the Batsignal, rather than 6...wonder who the other 2 unannounced ones are? i've heard rumors of a coatless Bane, so that would be #7 if true...wonder who is #8?

[WarrenPeace2012]

I ran into a couple of guys today..........

[mikey1974]

BASTARD SCUM !!!!



so,where'd you find them?!

[mikey1974]

also,as inept as Mattel can be,i have a really hard time believing they'll screw up again with this line as they did for TDK. i have a feeling they'll be plenty out there to be had.

[mikey1974]

lastly, expect assortment #1 ( Bats,Bane,Alfred) AND assortment #2 (Bats,Bane,Catwoman,Alfred) to hit on the 27th/28th. there's a guy on ebay who already has Catwoman,in package,in hand...so that assortment HAS to be hitting soon!

i'm getting the feeling that the assortment with Blake and the Mystery figure will ship in July,right before the movie. then the last assortment with the 2 unnamed figures in Sept/Oct.

LMAO! I was floating around the FWOOSH threads and noticed that people have been going to Target using a product number to find the figures. But, only if you're lucky, they wont care about the little sticker that says "Do not put on shelves before May 27th". I went to one Target and asked about the figures and they brought them out but as soon as they saw that sticker, they told me they couldnt sell them to me. I called another store and asked if they could put the figures on hold, and that worked. Good luck man!

e with 3 figures?

[WarrenPeace2012]

The number I had was for Batman so you have to ask for Bane. It seems like Targets first shipments only had 4 Batmans and 2 Banes. No Alfred, so when I get the numbers for Walmart I'll try to find out what the package ratio is

Sweet score dude! Can you share the number for Batman please?

[WarrenPeace2012]

Yeah sure, 087060472. Just a heads up, its better to call the store first and put them on hold instead of going to the store and asking.


A few more:

[ManInTheNarrows]

Thank you very much kind sir! And i'll definitely give them a call before stopping in. Appreciate it. Great pic by the way!

[mikey1974]

at this point, i might as well wait. forgot to say i also have Catwoman pre-ordered through bbts.com , so i'll have an extra available here for anyone who needs one, once i get them that is!

Alfred scares me. 1 per case,some cases without him in it... part of me says that he'll be easy to find cause not many kids will actually want an older Michael Caine figure. part of me thinks he'll be the next "Joker figure" ,and grabbed up by scalpers as soon as it hits the market...

[WarrenPeace2012]

I've got my route planned out for the 27th and 28th! I'm not missing out on Alfred or Catwoman!

No prob at all. And thanks!

So guys and gals, the question I've been wondering since about..2008, are we ever going to see Movie Masters of the '89-97 Batman movies?

[webhead731]

I'd really like to see good quality six inch versions of them. =\

What about that Batman Legacy line? Could they ever attempt that?

[WarrenPeace2012]

It's possible, but I barely ever see those Legacy packs anymore. They should just continue the MM line after they're done with TDKR

[mikey1974]

amoktime just put Alfred back up,so now i've got him pre-ordered too!

[mikey1974]

so,from everything i've been reading all over the net, assortments looked up in computers,rumors,etc. , it seems,for the moment at least,this is a basic outline as to what's coming:

Assortment #1 - May 27th :

Batman
Bane
Alfred

Assortment # 2 - June, but it seems likely some places might have these on the 27th as well:

Batman
Bane
Alfred
Catwoman - goggles up
Variant - Catwoman with goggles down

Assortment # 3 - July

John Blake
Ra's Al Ghul
Batman
Bane

Assortment # 4 - August / September:

Batman
Bane without coat
????????
Catwoman

SDCC Exclusive with lights and sounds action

also, been posted that Wal-Mart ruined the "surprise" we all pretty much figured out already - they have the "Mystery Figure" in assortment #3 listed as Ra's Al Ghul in their computer system....

[WarrenPeace2012]

Looks like it's hunting season! So should I go for 1 Alfred or 2? 1 Catwoman and 2 Chase Catwomans?

[AnneFan]

Warren, I love your Bane holding up the picture of Dent. Nice touch.

Your best off ordering from Amazon.com, they ship to the Uk. Withe Dark Knight Movie masters Forbidden planet kept saying they'd getting them in stock, kept pushing the date back, I'm not sure they ever got them in.
