The line might be geared for kids and they might like them...Heck they might even be in the cartoon,but they really don't capture Batman. Battle Punch Batman...This is probably my favorate of the three. I just wish he had normal feet. Bat Bot Batman...I guess he's cool looking for the kids but why would bats wear it? I guess we'll have to wait for the cartoon to see. Inline Attack Batman...I just don't get this figure, but maybe the kids will...Why does he have exausts on his boots? If this Batman didn't have the exausts on him and he wasn't orange...I think he might be cool. But all in all these figures weren't what I was hoping them to be. Man do I wish the Basic figures were here so I could put a normal batman in the batmobile. In anycase there's the deluxe figures for anyone who was interested. PJ

thanks for the pics. ugh, i'm liking this line less and less. These were a bit disappointing as I was really hoping the armor was removible. But I'm still excited for the basic figures. I really do like the look of the Batman. I think at some point Inline Bats will be introduced to the Mr. exacto and some blue or black paint. PJ

If the Inline Batman had Battle Punches paint scheme and no exaust pipes on him I think he'd look cool. I just wist the Zip-Action Bats & Bruce Wayne were here now. PJ

My main gripe about the other 2 figures is their color schemes...they're too bright and flashy

No problem. Yes they are to bright and flashy. So much for hiding in the shadows! So once I see them in the cartoon they'll be painted that color. Of course if this Online Attack costume isn't in the cartoon...he'll loose the exausts...be painted gray & black (or blue) and become either a "Deep Dive" Batman or I'll still repaint him but I'll leave the shoulder exausts and he'll be "Deep Space" Batman.

So I guess WB's project "Batman Wired" was not a red herring after all.. This all looks very much like "Mission Masters 5" YAY! Let's all get excited! ....not...

Actually, I like them all. The Inline Bats is a little odd as far as a Batman outfit, but, it kind of works. I hate to keep saying this, but the line is geared to kids - if kids go for the inline thing, then great! I really like the Robo Bats and the Battle Punch Bats the best. I might just pick up ol' Inline because - let's face it - we'll never see something like that ever again! ;D

I might just pick up ol' Inline because - let's face it - we'll never see something like that ever again! ;D That's what I figured they are tapping in on skatings popularity with kids. But the figure just looks weird with 3 exaust pipes on each boot. Other then that and the orange color he's a pretty cool looking figure. The Bat Bot is cool looking also I just wonder if it'll be this color on the show...but regardless that it's Batman I just don't like the color red in general. I would have been better in a blue or black. And the Battle Punch is my favorate of the 3...I like the color scheme and way his cape is extra long. I just wish he had feet that looked like boots and not robotic chicken feet. I think I'd have liked them more if I had the basic figures already. Still I do think the little kids will like them. PJ

I wasn't planning on getting these either as I just wanted the Zip Action Bats, Bruce Wayne , & Joker...but once I saw they were out I said I need a Batman for the Batmobile. Unfortunately they weren't what I hoped they'd be (Batman figures w/ removible armor) And more what I'd guess they'd be. PJ

[glow=blue,2,300]Either way, I think I'm going to settle on Zip Action Batman.. after all, it is this year's Zipline Batman !
Wouldn't it be weird if the movie accurate figure from Batman Begins also features some sort of zipline action ? ! ?[/glow]

I hate to keep saying this, but the line is geared to kids The 'geared towards kids' argument, which I've been reading a lot lately does not justify the ugliness of certain figures. Previous Batman lines were targeting kids as well, yet Batman didn't go all "Megazord" in those lines. Variants are alright if they have Batman-related gear such as huge wings ect. Last time I checked the Megazord Battle Armour was part of another toyline. Well no matter how the line turns out, at least we'll be getting an awesome Batcave which will go well with classic Batman figures since "The Batman" is only half a head taller than most Batman figures.

Wouldn't it be weird if the movie accurate figure from Batman Begins also features some sort of zipline action ? ! ?[/glow] I'm sure it will. Funny thing is if you look at pictures of the Zip Action Batman from Toy Fair coverage and mags. There's pictures of him with a batarang attached to the launcher on his arm. Along with other pictures of him with just the launcher without the batarang...but there's no pictures of it having a rope or anything. So I wonder if it's just a batarang/projectile launcher...and not a climbing apparatus. Although the packaged picture looks like there's a cable. Either way I want the Zip Action Batman. PJ

The blue one looks kinda cool. The "Bulldozer Arms Batman" looks pretty cheezy. I'm getting all the figs except the deluxes. ;D

(I hate when they don't have normal feet) The "Bulldozer arms" one will be in the cartoon...I just don't know if it will be red. And the Inline Batman is much better looking now that I repainted him. (he's in custom section) PJ
