thats mattels new JLU Joker. aside from a new head sculpt i dont see anything special about it. the body looks like the same design for their TNBA joker they did a couple years back.

I just wish they'd re-release the Batmobiles from BTAS and TNBA

I noticed when i posted it that it should read Mattel.

Its cool, we knew what you were talking about.

 

[SHADOWBAT69]

Yeh. I wish Hasbro DID have the license back. The best thing Ive seen from them coming from Toy Fair thus far has been those pre shool toys.

You know when hasbro had the licence they just wasted it and i wanted it to go to someone else. Now mattel have it there wasting it and Hasbro are turning out some pretty decent stuff (not neca standard but figures aimed at children that are cool)

Actually, Kenner/Hasbro had the best Batman lines ever. Not including the SP line from 84, the Dark Knight Collection and Returns line was great, the TAS line was and still is one of the best toy lines ever, the Legends of Batman and Legends of the Dark Knight line gave us some of the best sculpted and widest variety of Batman figs. The Forever and B&R lines were decent. You had the basic figs as well as variants, and a slew of vehicles and sets that were pretty nice. It wasnt until the animated series' stopped and the movies ended that Hasbro slowed down on the license. They felt that without a major media tool to help support the lines it wasnt in their best ($) interest to do a vast line. The problem was, WB wanted what they were used to getting and didnt understand Hasbros viewpoint. So, Mattel who was struggling popped in with a grand presentation of what they would do, which half was what Kenner already did, and won the license. Now, collectors are *****ing the same thing that we *****ed about with K/H at the end of their run.

I say give it all to Toy Biz.lol

Well put, i was always angry with Hasbro/Kenner for the fact that so many Dark Knight Collection & returns Figures never made it over to Britain. I also really wanted as a child Batman in the Panther suit from Forever, You'd think with all the variants they'd at least make one screen acurate figure of Batman.

But yeah Toy Biz with the licence would be awesome.

[SHADOWBAT69]

I do believe all items are slated for summer and fall releases.
