Anyways, any luck in Canada yet?

 

[jubmasterflex]

So this might be a long shot, but I was wondering if anyone would be willing to trade a MM Joker figure for a Thug (with Joker's Bank Heist mask crime scene evidence) or a Chase Figure from either Wave.

Feel free to PM me

 

[chubbyman]

ok, I am going completely insane. These past weeks i've been looking for MMs in Toronto and I cannot find any. Has it even been released yet in Canada? What is Mattel Canada doing?

 

[AWFUL GLORY]

Can some one clarify which would be wave 1 and which is wave 2?

 

[jedisivart]

I believe the wave 2 movie masters figures have holes punched into the side of them and the joker face is different than the wave 1.

No clue man. I'm an hour away from Toronto and I have not seen any.

Okay, went out to grab the TDK score so I figured I might as well hit all the stops. Wal Mart had tons of TDK displays everywhere. I noticed a new throw pillow that had DK graphics on it. They also had the crank and launch Bat Pod. Everything else was the same old stuff.

TRUs had the Pod launching Tumbler for 27.99, which I picked up and also got in a bunch more of the 30" dolls and lots of candy shippers.

I also went into Super Kmart. I know everyone laughs at Kmart, but guess what? Not only was their whole front section dedicated to TDK, but they also has Movie Masters!! And at only 9.99!! Sadly all they had was TDK and Begins Batman, but hey, they had them, and lots.

Target did restock the 4" 2packs so I was able to finally grab the Thug pack.

Can some one clarify which would be wave 1 and which is wave 2?

Wave 1 = TDK Batman, Joker, Thug, and Bruce as Batman as the chase figure

Wave 2 = BB Batman, Scarecrow, Joker (2nd version?), and Demon Bats as the chase figure

if anyone sees a MM fear gas batman, please try to grab a second one and sell to me!

 

[ABongHalloween]

hey hey
I live in Baton Rouge where are they!!!????!!!!!
Ive been scouring for a Joker since wave 1 hit in May!

 

[MonopolyMan630]

First time posting. I don't know if anyone has noticed but my local Ralphs had a few Wave 1 Batman action figures.

 

[I'm Batman!]

So will the Wave 1 Movie Master's joker be a worthwhile investment and nice keepsake for the movie?

And is it because I am new that I cannot post a new thread? I can't seem to find any information on the Dark Knight Limited Soundtrack.

 

[Z(+)DIAC]

Does anyone know if Mattel plans on re-releasing Wave 1 figures?

 

[lilmotto]

Does anyone know if Mattel plans on re-releasing Wave 1 figures?

They have a new batman and rereleased joker already

 

[Z(+)DIAC]

They have a new batman and rereleased joker already

Well I meant the Dark Knight Suit Batman and Gotham City Thug...

 

[SHADOWBAT69]

Does anyone know if Mattel plans on re-releasing Wave 1 figures?

When I was at Super Kmart today they had about 8 TDK Movie Master Batman.

 

[jubmasterflex]

Again I was wondering if anyone would like to trade a MM Joker for a MM Gotham City Thug with Joker Mask Variant.

Example:

 

[lilmotto]

Well I meant the Dark Knight Suit Batman and Gotham City Thug...

I hear some stores still have the dark knight suit and gotham thugs are up on ebay. I highly doubt there will be a rerelease, and honestly i don't really think they need one. Most people wanted wave one rerelease for joker but since they got him i don't see them fighting for anything else from wave 1

 

[Scarface5]

Ok here's the deal guys. I have one extra Movie Master's Joker that I am willing to trade for merchandise and/or certain swag. It is one of the new so called wave 2's but in reality it is just a re-issue or wave 1. It does not have the new "surprised" expression that everyone thought the new ones would have. It is the same face as the previous ones and in fact the face is even better because Mattel seems to have taken more care in painting these. The paint on the figure is more matte than the previous and much better applied, so it doesn't have that cheap gloss look that most mass produced figures have.

What I'm interested in trading for are the following:

-27X40 double sided original movie poster, the one with Bats & the burning building
-Size Small or Medium Citizens for Batman t-shirt
-2 issues of the Gotham Times issues 1 and/or 3
-New Era Joker hat (the purple & white one, size 7 1/8)

These are incredibly hard to find and I know that some of you still don't have them so I'm willing to part with one for one or more of the items above; I believe this would be a fair trade. This took me over a week to hunt down at 6 stores and I was only able to get 2 at a boondocks K-Mart. If I were to trade for swag, it would have to be all or most of what I listed above since swag is free (yes I know it took time and effort to get but so did this), poster or hat would be a straight 1 for 1 trade. If you have anything else you'd think would be a fair trade, let me know and I'll consider it. And no I won't sell it straight up, I rather keep it and open it to display than sell it; I want the things above and have not been able to find them at a fair price that is why I'm proposing this.


EDIT: OK since some people are not reading this right or maybe I wasn't clear enough, I DO NOT WANT ALL THE ITEMS LISTED ABOVE FOR 1 JOKER!!!!! That would be ridiculous and would never happen. I want to trade 1 MM Joker for one of the merchandise items listed above or a combo or the swag items.

Trade: 1 Joker for 1 Poster
1 Joker for 1 New Era Hat
1 Joker for 1 CFB shirt + 2 Gotham Times #1 and 1 Gotham Times #3
(or at least most of this)

I work at a K-mart in Ohio and we got wave one in today and they will be on the shelves tomorrow so I would check K-marts. I bought a Batman and the Joker.

Now that I've seen the movie, I'm laughing a little bit at my Gotham City Thug figure. I hadn't seen the prologue like most people (I avoided every bit of footage except for trailers), so I just assumed that this particular goon stuck with the Joker for most of the movie.

Having seen the movie, the figure is in a whole new context.

Spoiler

He gets hit by a damn school bus four minutes into the film!

Now I just wish I had a scale toy school bus to recreate the scene with.
