Thanks for the look. Some of those look OK. I wonder where do the Bruce Wayne and second Nightwing figures we first saw a few months ago fit in? I thought they were part of Wave 4 too.
I know they've been seen overseas as anybody seen them here in the States yet?

[shadow=green,left,300]Thanks for bringing that up FlaBat. Just because its not shown here doesn't necessarily mean its not coming out. This is just a few of the figs from wave four.[/shadow]

Thanks for that Matt,some of them look pretty good.I must confess to being confused exactly what's in what wave.I guess it's just luck of the draw on the Toy Store shelves.

Those deluxe figs are great! I love the Nightwing and the black and grey Bats! New toys! YAYYY! Intersesting how Mattel seems to have more of a commitment to Nightwing than they do Robin. Any reason for this o great Oracle?

[shadow=red,left,300]The Joker figure looks to be the only one out of the 4th wave that I'll get.
Holding out for what Matt said, it gets better after the 4th wave. *crosses fingers*[/shadow]

Those look pretty cool! I'll be picking them up.
I can't wait to get into collecting Mattel again. I didn't buy a Mattel fig in awhile.

The deluxe black and grey Bats will probably be on my "to get" list, along with that Joker. Mostly I'm just excited about this wave because of the hintetty hints ol' oracle has been sending our way about what is in store for Batman beyond this.
Heh... Batman beyond...

The Scuba one might be good(painted in Batman colors). The Nightwing would be good if I didn't have the base figure (it looks to be a sling strike repaint) and didn't know about the back of the head being messed up as well as the arms. Is the deluxe Black and grey just Zipline with new accesories or is it a new figure? I'd pay for a Zipline with a black wash and darker belt. Throw the accesories in my big box of weird colorful things that shoot things. Otherwise, I'm hoping that they really do turn this around. Or at least throw in a black and gold repaint of the SDCC Batman or the Blue and Grey with no shorts Batman. Are they spilling the beans at SDCC? Why do they tell Matt and others from different websites info that far in advance if they make you sit on it? Matt, SDcomics, Toy Detective, Julius Marx, etc. I don't understand their strategy of withholding info, especially positive info, until a certain date. Is it a deal with the cons or Toyfare ? ;D Do they give you guys all the same release date? The con exclusive was spilled early on the DC board. It almost seems like a burden on the guys that get the info to try and explain things but having to have one arm tied behind your back when saying that things will get better in the face of repaints, but not being able to say how. Did you guys see Yamato Wave 3 yet? There's a great Two-Face in there. Too bad they have no articulation and are a little small for Mattel or DCD scale.

I am glad i;m not interested in the Batman figs that much. The only one i have is Zipline. I am more with the rare chase ones. This Joker is lookin good. Others so-so.

It seems that despite crossbow Batman they're all more accurate colors... it would be refreshing if they were all blacks, blues, and greys in their release versions (I mean Spider-man has a billion toys all in the same color schemes, why should Bats have to go neon to sell?!)
I wonder if the color schemes will change before release or how much detail on the figures will remain painted in the final versions too (I bet Joker's belt isn't as neat)... still they're nice ideas for figures, Dual Blade looks like he could be a nice Kingdom Come custom (you know... like if you wanted to make a custom using a KC Batman but couldn't afford one just to cut up DB Batman could fill in pretty well)

Your'e right DrB,that DB Batman could make a very interesting KC cutom indeed.Be interesting to have a good look at him when he's released.

I might get a Nightwing... maybe a Joker... At lease this wave is 'darker' in image.

Acid Blast Bats and of course Joker are on my list when this series hits retail. Crossbow Bats is a maybe - heck I don't even have a Zipline for myself yet, my son has one, but I don't. Hopefully there's some extra articulation in this series - I'd be more inclined to pick them all up if they just added a few more POA's!

Thanks for the pics! Are the set backgrounds for the figures things you did or Mattel? They're awesome if you did them, actually more interesting than the figures IMO More Batman variants and a remake of a villian who has already been done! I understand the need to flood the pegs with the "main man", but give us a new villian please! The Acid Blast Joker is OK, but I was hoping for a Penguin, Riddler, or a female character done by the 4H would look great! Oh well, I'll always have the Hush figures. >:(Jason
