[shadow=red,left,300]Suffolk. So far I've been to all the major chain shops (Woolworths, Toymaster etc...) and still nothing! Not even Camebridge's Forbidden Planet had any! I'm annoyed because we got the Hulk and Iron Man toys month before the films hit cinemas. -The Shadow[/shadow] That's because Hasbro is better at this game than Mattel; however, those Speed Racer toys were out a good month before the film hit...

Has anyone gotten a hold of the Crime Scene Evidene Joker or Batman? None of the stores near me carry it. I heard online that it's discontinued? Is this true?
I'd be really happy if someone could get ahold of one for me.

I'd be really happy if someone could get ahold of one for me. Here's the deal - apparently, these were recalled by Mattel. Nothing to do with safety, they just weren't up to Mattel's 'standards'. They're supposed to be returning in the next few weeks, provided they've had time to make whatever changes they've deemed necessary, so keep watching for them. Toys r us has their exclusive movie masters two-packs listed as a July 8th release - if accurate, I'm betting that's when all movie master stuff will make a come back.

I don't know if anyone else noticed but the walmarts around my place put out a ton of Dark Knight toys (No MM's of course).
They did however have a bunch of the Treadator vehicles. But the packaging was changed. It now has a big red star looking thing on the upper portion that says "Pull Back and Go" or something like that. I only got 1 of the old packaged treadators about a month ago and that was the only treadator I even saw. I believe the vehicle is the same though.

Dont know if anyone really cares, but this is the display I put together for the General Mills and Got Milk promotion. This week we had the Dark Knight Gogurts featured.
Just doing my part to help promote the movie.
We also received this in last night:

Today at Target I bought two 4-inch 2 Packs: A Thermo Suit Batman/Gotham Thug, though the front of the package lists it as Batman and the Joker, and a Batman and the Joker that is listed on the package as Battle Armor Batman and Bruce Wayne. Normally I wouldn't get into these sort of mistakes, but Target had them on sale so I couldn't resist.

@ ShadowBat, once the promotion is over, try and take the large Bat insignia and the large Joker card home, they'll look awesome on your wall. i'd cover the "Got Milk?" over though so it looks solid black.

Thank you for the pictures, Shadowbat69.
Did you find those Joker balloons somewhere or did the vendor give them to you with the promotional signing?

I actually already have that stuff. My rep gave me extras for myself.
For the balloons, I made them. Same goes for the "got milk?" bat.

What store do you work in? It looks like the old Winn-Dixies we used to have around my area.

The MM for wave 2 are definately out in the south and northwest parts of the United States. (on ebay) None in the midwest. At least not by me. Went to almost a dozen stores this morning. When someone finds them in the Midwest please let me know.

Batmobile looks great! Can't wait to get my hands on this, but I can't understand - does the cockpit open to put a figure inside or not?

^ iT does but i think you have to remove the bat-pod to put the figure in, with the bat-pod inside i think it won't fit.
