The Dark Knight Rises Movie Masters: Official Discussion - Part 4

[TheBlackMask]

Oh yeah, I know they're 6 to a case this time around. I should have added "at least".

I can pretty much guarantee Ra's is one per case, to another 3 Batmans, was my point. Then it's probably another Bane and Blake/Cat.

I believe that the Ra's case breakdown was Batman x3 Bane x1 Catwoman x1 Ra's x1. Although I saw someone say before that it was Batman x3 Bane x2 and Ra's x1. Either way Ra's is in fact 1 per case and in only 1 of the 6 or is it 7? case assortments.

 

[AndyDrums]

TheBlackMask is right about the Ra's case breakdown. It's 3 Batman, 1 Bane, 1 Catwoman, 1 Ra's.

I'd like to find out which version of Catwoman it is, as I know somewhere getting a case in the next week or so, but they don't know which Catwoman it is.

Got the 2 Blakes I ordered from Amazon yesterday. One of them was pristine. The second one though, the box was in bad shape, the paint job on the eyes was very poor, and it was missing a belt buckle... oddly enough. Needless to say I'm going to return it or try to exchange it for another one. Has this happened to anyone else?

 

[CatwomanFan1]

Waste. Of. Time.

KMart was still in the middle of a move. The Batman wall had 3 empty MM pegs and then there was an end cap with 6 Batman and 1 Bane.

I did find someone helpful this morning though. She scanned Bane and told me there were none in back and that there were 7 onthe floor.

And the hunt continues...

 

[Metropolis_Man]

All these K Mart stories make me laugh. It's the same in my area as well. It's so desolate in them all, like these are the last people of a mutated Earth.

 

[S.D. Plissken]

I sort of hate collecting these figures because the case assortments are so ******. Whoever decides that there needs to be more batmans than anything is pretty damn stupid.

I will be happy when I don't have to buy Mattel figures anymore.

Similar Story... different ending.... I went to K-mart and they were doing the reset ... I pulled a MM batman off the shelf and asked her if they had any more!!! She said yes and went to the back... she returned with a box...I openned to box and heard a voice say .... "But is Ra's al Ghul immortal? Are his methods supernatural?" Then I found MOVIE MASTERS RA'S AL GHUL

Greatest usage of movie lines... Ever!

Have seen some with bad paint around the eyes but no issues other than that.

 

[CatwomanFan1]

I've actually been pleasantly suprised with the quality of these figures. Considering I only find ONE at a time, its not like I can pick and choose the best paint job. So fat I have been beyond pleased with the likeness and quality of all the figures I have found.

I have managed to score a few Catwoman and I will say that some are better than others when it comes to paint application/likeness but as far as the quality of the paint app... Near flawless across the board. Pretty impressive IMO.

Sometimes the belt is turned to the side so it appears that its missing the belt buckle but really its hidden underneath his jacket.

I got my Blake today and the only issue was that there was a crease going along the very top of the card. Otherwise it's fine to me.

Same as my Blake from Amazon. Small crease at the top. But I bought it as an opener so I had no issue. Figure itself was perfect.

 

[puccahead]

anyone from toronto Canada area that are looking for these figures and have trouble finding them like myself?

 

[Gold Samurai]

Even on the phone Kmart employees are rude.



Employee- No, we do have that(Ra's) figure

Me- Is it possible it in the backroo...

Employee- No.

Me- I heard there was a toy reset

Employee- We already reset last week. All the toys are out on the shelf.

 

[WarrenPeace2012]

Anyone need a John Blake body? No head though. I'd be willing to trade for a Batman Begins cape.

 

[TinkTonks]

Like CatwomanFan1, my KMart was still in the middle of a move. Though to be fair, they did manage to push one cart full of toys from the front of the aisle to the back of the aisle since yesterday.....

I went up to the 2 guys working on setting the shelves and asked if they had any of the MM's in the back. I got 'ummmmmmmm. Hard to say. We are in the middle of a reset.' I asked if there was any way they could scan one and see if they had any back there, (so I would at least know if I should keep hitting them up, or move on somewhere else.) The two guys just stood there looking at me like this 0.0 So I asked when would be the best time to come back, since I was just looking for one figure (Ra's). At first no one said anything, then the 2nd guy said I could just give the service desk my name, and what I was looking for. Yeah...I worked in retail. The service desk has *nothing* to do with the toy section. They are like their own separate entity. I do have a Ra's on pre-order from BBTS, but it would have been awesome to score one for retail.......

I hope these stories start getting better!!! I know K-MART SUCKS!!! but they had the Ra's Al Ghul figure and for $12.79 .... the case break down I did not pay close attention to but I can tell you there was more than 1 batman a bane and a Catwoman (GD) as well as only 1 Ra's if that helps

 

[DrexBat21]

OK, ONE sighting at ONE K-mart ... has anyone seen Ra's anywhere else? Has Target redeemed themselves yet with newer MM merch? Are B&N and FYE out of the picture now?

 

[Metropolis_Man]

Just got back from my lunch break and I checked a K Mart, Target and Wal Mart.

K Mart had 3 Batman, 3 Bane and 1 Alfred
Target had 2 Batman
Wal Mart had 4 Batman

Stopping by another K Mart and Toys R Us on the way home.

I believe you are right. I was thinking the same thing too. There was a guy stocking stuff while I was there looking around. He said to check back in about a week as they are changing the layout like others have mentioned.

 

[Spiralizer]

Got my Blake from Amazon today. The package was beyond crap. The shipping box was too small for the figures box so they just stuffed it in there. Never again.

 

[Batmandrake]

Kmart FAIL! Well, i went back during lunch today and this time the lady actually took the time to dig for the box in the back...probably took her about 15-20 mins. I should've known it wouldn't have a Ra's in it when she mentioned that it had been sitting back there for a while, which is why she had to dig for it. But she brought it out and out came 3 Batman, 2 Bane and 1 Alfred. Aargh! I'm beginning to understand Bane's logic about giving someone just enough hope to make the despair so much worse...lol. If you need me, I'll be just sitting in a prison at the bottom of a well...

That's bizarre. Did Ace Ventura quit his job at TRU and K-Mart and start working at Amazon?!

 

[TheBat7475]

As I sit here watching Batman Returns it makes me wonder what are the chances of seeing MM based off the older movies in the TRU legacy figures next year? I would highly doubt it but I'd love a Keaton Batman MM.
