Better Class Of Toyline (Official: Movie Masters Thread)

Harvey Dent is to be released today.
Got me 2 Harvey Dents. One more figure closer to completing the collection. Cant wait for Jail Cell Joker and Two-Face. Do you think the Sonar batman will have Light up eyes or just painted white eyes. The cardback looks like there light up.
 
Ok....I think I am seriously going to faint :( :( :( :(


:doh: I have been so stressed out with personal problems and a buttload of other stuff and COMPLETELY forgot to order my 2 Harvey Dent figures...




....I'm honestly going to friggin' cry....I wanted this figure so badly...

He's on eBay but some guy is selling ONE of them for $60...

I'm so bummed right now its unreal...
 
Wow I cant believe he sold out already and so did survival suit Bruce wayne

Its all good dude. Mattel is supposed to release these at toys r us in the spring. All of them accept the Bank Robber Joker which is a mattycollector exclusive. So if you missed him this time you will get a second chance. @ AZspidey, yeah im pretty shocked these both sold out. I figured they would be there for quite some time. Im excited for next months Jail Cell Joker!

Wow man really... Talk about over reacting. The Harvey dent figure is a piece of unholy ****. All of these figures have.

I cant believe that.

Hey ManInTheNarrows!! Thanks for the shoulder to cry on man :word:.........yeah I did actually hear about Mattel releasing these figures at Toys R Us....but I'm just a little worried simply because Im in Canada and honestly? We get S-H-I...well...you know the last letter :hint--****: here in Canada as far as figures go..it's really hit or miss. We may not even get them. I have a feeling we wont because I still see MM figures from the 1st movie. IF we do get them I know it'll be one of those situations where if I'm lucky to be in the right place at the right time..if I'm not? They're gone...and I'm faced with a situation like this pinhead here:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...&Category=2480&_trkparms=algo=LVI&its=I&otn=2


:( I saw that and I got soooo friggin' bummed. I thought $15 or $20 would be stretchin' it but I'd shell that out...but $60 or more? Damn...

I just wanted two of them, one to keep in the package and one to keep out.

Its funny, when the first Batman Begins movie came out I was LOSING it because the toys Mattel made were abysmal...something from McDonalds. Then the Movie Masters come out and I lost my mind I was so excited! And I don't even have to get into the problems that THOSE damn things caused...geezus I lost my hair with the inflated/scarcity/maybe not coming to Canada debacle that was the Dark Knight Movie Masters figures...

...then they say they are comin' to Matty Collector and I'm like :D!!! YESSS.....THEN there were rumours circulating for awhile that they would be cancelled :huh:.....THEN they are comin' out :doh:

LoL..either way as you can see by all of the above here...I've been on quite a rollercoaster of emotions when it comes to these figures...I just wanted to know I could go online-click 'Buy 2' then have 'em shipped here to me without the hassle...and I know it's just ONE figure but...now? Methinks the hair that was starting to grow back is starting to fall out again...

I'm not sure if I'm out of line here, and forgive me if I am but if anyone has 2 of the Harvey Dent figures to spare I'd gladly buy them from you? Or trade? I think everyone who got them is pretty happy with the number they bought though...just figured I'd give it a shot anyways.
 
p.s. Anyone else think that the Harvey Dent figure looks kinda like Conan O' Brien?
 
Bank Robber Joker is not a pre order, you can buy him at anytime on mattycollector.com before he sells out.

No a side note, I got my Harvey Dent figure yesterday, and it just makes me look even more forward to two face.

No problem man. And yes i know the pain and suffering that these figures caused all to well. That is why i was extremely happy to hear them coming to Mattycollector.com. I would help you out on the Harvey Dent situation but again i only ordered 2 of them and 1 is now open next to Proto suit bats and BR Joker. When they are released in the spring i can keep my eye open for ya. This way for some reason if you dont get this wave in Canada maybe we can work something out.

I thought the exact same thing man. I think the figure looks great. I mean when it comes down to it, its just a guy in a suit but it definitely looks like Aaron Eckhart to me, and i can not wait for two-face and jail cell joker!!! I also liked the fact that the coin with Dent was Die Cast. Very nice job Mattel.

Honestly bless you man haha ya JUST saved my life! *un***** loaded Desert Eagle..places gently on nightstand* ;)

That is really nice of you I really appreciate it :)

I am glad you got your figures ya lucky duck! Regardless of how much of a ROYAL pain in the balls its been to get these figures (not to mention the fact that Two Face has taken like 400 years to come out since the release of the movie) it is so amazing and I'm so happy that there are awesome 6-inch collector style Dark Knight movie action figures...I don't care IF it's just a 'guy in a suit'...it's friggin' Harvey Dent man!! :woot: Gotta respect that $***

I still think it would be great if these damn figures had a butt-load of accessories though...guns gadjects the works.

I would also like a Joker in his purple suit with a new head sculpt because the older one looks kinda weak in comparison to the Jail Cell Joker and that larger purple suited Joker Ive seen floatin' around the net on some sites.

....ps...thank you again :cwink:

Once Mattel announced that they were selling these at TRU, I decided to only buy Two-Face off Matty.com and take my chances at TRU this spring. (I did get the BRJ last year.) I know I'll have to fight off the scalpers, but the fact that the movie will be nearly 2 years old and that a lot of the hungry collectors bought online, should allow me to snag what I need...and avoid the $8.50 shipping!

I have not taken mine out of the package, but is the coin scared on one side or no?

I used to think the same way, but the $8.50 in shipping you just have to look at the gas and time lost looking around for these toys. And Im positive you will end up spending less in the end, but the stress and time wasted running around is something I dont want to do, and risk losing out on one of the figures. I probably wont buy the sonar eyes batman online, Ill chance trying to find that one in the stores.

:woot:!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

HELLLLLLLSSSS YEAHHHH!!! Someone tipped me off to THAT site right there!

Ok, ok...so lets look at the facts here....these figures are absolutely stunning to me and I'm happy Mattel made them. I am not too overly impressed with paying so much money for these damn figures...I mean, if I HAD tons of $$$ it wouldn't be a problem...but I don't. That being said you gotta splurge once and awhile for things you really want (although perhaps I do that too much sometimes :doh:...I digress)

I totally could have paid just $15 a friggin' pop for these guys but I missed the boat...so now in total for 2 of them I'm paying like $62..which kinda hurts. But you know what? I don't have to trouble anyone, nor do I have to wait till Spring to see if, key word IF..they come out.

District Attorney Harvey Dent in his beautiful action figure form is In Stock and ready to ship boys! And hopefully I'll get my hands on him and my Survival Suit Bruce Wayne in the next week or so and re-enact that dinner table scene heh heh!...exciting eh? :oldrazz:

Thanks ManinTheNarrows again!

So yeah, I kinda ate the dirt by paying a little more...but...at least I managed to get this truly awesome action figure!

Totally see your point Pennywise and i agree with you. As long as Mattel stays true to what they have said and release the figures in the spring! Its Mattel and they have definitely disappointed in the past as we know by how this line has been handled. Honestly i think Mattel will only ship their left overs to toys r us so that will make the case break down a bit difficult to track down. So i guess only time will tell. I really wish Mattel would get their heads out of there asses and make movie masters for 89 Batman and more characters from Begins and maybe a few from Returns...

Totally agree with ya AZspidey. I would rather click and buy then drive around like a mad man looking for these. I was so bummed when these flooded the market. All the hard work that i had done to complete my collection. Man i was pissed the **** off !!! But as time goes on you learn to forgive i suppose. I also collect DC Universe Classics and those arent any easier to find at times. So basically Mattel knows their figures are awesome and hopefully with all of our money combined we may see an accessory pack or 2!

Bro $62.00 is a bit much for my blood but hey i would do the same thing if didnt get my figures lol.

Oh yeah dude, it's hurtin' LoL, pretty rough. But honestly? The way I look at it? I try to go back to the days when I walked into Toys R Us in 2005 and saw the Batman Begins figures...especially after seeing that awesome movie, and longing for GOOD, DECENT action figures made off the film....and how disappointed I was to see that Happy Meal **** Mattel tried to pass off. It was pretty maddening you know? I mean here we are like HOW many years later after the abysmal Batman & Robin fiasco..and we are FINALLY getting a wicked Batman movie...buuuut one of the most important things, the cool action figures? Are absolute crap.

That all changed when Mattel was gracious enough to not insult the buyer and create the "Movie Masters" line...lol, its funny, I seriously remember just losin' my mind when I heard about a line of 6-inch detailed "Dark Knight" action figures...I was soooo happy!

So now despite the price tag and the g-damn pain in the arse it was to track down the first wave..and knowing that these here figures were almost gonna get cancelled (well...according to rumors floatin' around at one time) that soothes my mind and my wallet after getting upset for paying so much for these action figures.

Also it kinda sucks knowing the company could have probably been a little less careless when it came to the way they handled this line. What with the figures coming out...then being recalled...then having to pay like $40000 for one on eBay, then having them flood the stores and interest kinda dwindling and them being on clearance..then the second wave coming out..then not coming out....now coming out...BAH it's enough to make you drive a hammer in your nuts! :whatever:

I wonder if Mattel knew all along what they were doing with these figures? If this was some giant marketing scheme. I dunno...I don't want to think the worst but, companies are literally all about making $$$ not making people happy persay. It's all about the green and perhaps they knew how to ruffle the feathers of the collectors and kids alike who wanted DECENT sized and detailed movie action figures. Hmmmm....
 
I still have those 3 'unmasked' Batman TDK figs if anybody is interested, hit me up here or via PM ;)

Dude I totally felt the exact same way when Mattel announced the new 6inch Movie Master line. I literally gizzed in my pants lol. Love that SNL skit. But no really i was so damn excited when i heard these were coming out. After all of the torture we have endured over the years with crap Batman Movie figures, finally we collectors were getting the recognition we deserved. I think i was one of the few fortunate ones to acquire the whole wave 1 set in one single shot! I got them all on May 5th, 2008. That was the official release date and i was at toys r us waiting for the damn store to open.

I was like a kid again when i found these. Regardless of how Mattel handled this line i still love these figures. Like you said we finally get awesome Batman Movie Figures!!! Then wave 2 came out. Scarecrow and Begins bats were kinda hard to get at first but man that Batman ghoul chase was super hard to get. I eventually found about 6 of them but not until Thanksgiving of 2008.

So in the end i have built this great and loving relationship with this line because of all of the hard but yet fun times i had tracking these damn figures down. I will complete the Movie Masters collection!!! I just really really hope Mattel decides to move forward with other Batman film characters. We can only hope.
 
HAHA LoL yeah I totally know what you mean about that SNL skit....I popped a chub that'd break through even the thoughest of Levi's man!!!

Theres just something so fantastic about seeing a film with characters you really love and think is so cool you just NEED/WANT toys off of it...but actually decent toys. Not crap.

You are SOOO lucky gettin them all on May 5th, 2008 lol that's awesome i'd remember that date too! I was a little less lucky...I got the severe run around for months with Toys R Us employees sayin' they 'had them in the back' or 'got them and had to ship them back' or 'would be getting them any day now' for the better part of 3 or 4 months. I went ****ing bananas and paid through the nads trying to get them all...it was kind of bitter sweet...more sweet in the end though, money is money--I finally got the movie based action figures I've been craving for years.

Although sometimes I still wanna kidney punch whoever was responsible for the shipping/availability fiasco that entailed with these figures...I distinctly remember sitting down looking at all of my figures I got being so happy and then BAM walking into Toys R Us only to see them for like 8 times less the price I paid for them LoL...it was pretty sweet though because I like to get doubles of my figures (one to play with one to keep in the package) and one time I went to TRU and found TONS of the Joker Goon figures so I managed to get quite an army :)

I do agree I really hope Mattel does make future characters from all the movies (lol well..like you said in the other thread EXCEPT the Schumcocker ones...well..actually some of the Forever ones wouldn't be bad...but save those for LAST...dont' even tough Batman & Robin..what a disaster that movie was!)

I am crossin' my fingers and toes man for sure! The only thing I'd say is for them to stop being dick teases and release the figures in ONE shot for everyone instead of this once every month garbage. Make them available in decent quantaties online..I'd pay $15 for them for sure. Sucks we have to wait till May to get Two Face (he better come with a damn gun!). Also I really want a SWAT Gordon action figure with gun.

Also I can't wait to get the Harvey Dent action figure...how is he? Pretty bad ass eh? :D
 
You know, I'm really getting tired of MattyCollector. I have signed up three email addresses to their newsletter in order to receive news on new releases, and not on a single one was I notified of the new figures for the Movie Masters TDK line.

Guess I'll have to wait until they start popping up in my local TRU. Watch Matty decide to **** that one up too and decide not to release them.
