I've been digging all over the internet trying to figure out where this fella came from... anyone have any idea? (This was from an ebay auction.) He's definitely not bright orange (like the one that came in the Batman Beyond packaging), and certainly not bright red (like the Quick Change Bruce Wayne from BTAS). Any help would be greatly appreciated. Also, greetings, as this is my first post .

Firstly, welcome to the forum!
I can't think of where he would come from off the top of my head, save the two examples you mentioned......

Welcome to the board, ilfiorelaluna.
This great version of Bruce comes from the "Puppets of Crime" 4-pack that was put out by Hasbro in 2002. Hasbro was putting a new figure in each 4-pack then and that figure was Wesker and Scarface. It also had Nightwing, Killer Croc, and to everyones suprise: Bruce Wayne without that bright orange coat. The Bruce Wayne figure is to the far left of the package and had the cowl and cape on so he looked like a regular Batman figure. The Grey slide-on coat is further to the left and almost cannot be seen under the package.
I hope this helps, and again welcome. If you have questions about Batman toys, this is the place to go! ...Lucky.

Thanks for that lucky. I never got that 4-pack, and I didn't notice the suit in the corner of the packaging! We have this item in our toy archives, under the Toys 'R Us Batman Exclusives section. (see pics below)

same here PJ-having that Bruce Wayne and Ventruiliquist in that set made it a real winner for me-unlike the Alfred set which I only got for Alfred yknow?

I agree, great Bruce and Scarface/Wesker is really nice. This is the only Croc I have. BTW, I never got an Alfred...missed the four-pack and wouldn't cough up $50 to get him with the 'cave :-(

Wow, the batcave was $50.00? How much were the 4-packs in stores? Were they TRU exclusives?

Ilf... The 4-packs were $19.99 and they were TRU exclusives. This one was well worth it becase of the Wesker & Scareface and the repainted Bruce Wayne and Killer Croc. The new 4-pack is now higher at $21.99 (I beleive), but the purple catwoman is worth it.
