This is the real big news here.

Azrael!



I don't know if he and Nightmaster ever interacted, but they feel like they'd be bros.



With a cameo from Black Knight over in the Marvel toy thread...



Azrael even pairs nicely with Spawn.

Sigh, always with the gimmicks...

Get back to me when they've got a good Christopher STANDEN figure.

Superman stuff is starting to slip out overseas, official reveal should be coming soon:

When I was a kid, I had a Batman toy. It was a BTAS figure and depicted Batman in a suit that was blue-ish grey, had a black bat symbol without the yellow oval, and a brown pouch belt. I loved it, and it solidified my preference for a pouch belted no oval'd Batman design.

In retrospect I always assumed this was a TNBA toy because he was designed to look like that in that show. Yet when I went to look for that old figure I saw that by the time they were making TNBA toys they'd gone to plastic capes and I very much remember the toy I had having a cloth cape. Plus the greys on those were flat greys while I remember the figure I had having a blueish tint and a bit of a sheen.
And then today, on my way home from work, I find this. In a vintage toy and comic store.



It's him! I found him! And he only cost me $8! In this economy? That's a steal!

Turns out my memory wasn't quite right. It wasn't a TNBA toy. It was the "retro Batman" figure from the Batman: Mask of the Phantasm line. Meant to replicate Batman's original look in the BTAS timeline that they would use as a basis for his TNBA look. Hence my confusion.
That's ok though, because at long last I've got one of the seminal Batman figures from my childhood back!
Plus he comes complete with this fun Kenner nonsense!

Well this is one way to deal with tariffs...

Love how the modern SOP is "Something happened to the shipment, but we're not going to order another one or get a replacement or anything, we're just going to #%$& you over for putting your trust in us. Have a nice day!"

"He gave us a signal!"


"Baby, I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the grey...Ooh, the more I get of you, stranger it feels, yeah"


"Will you... trust me now?"


"I like reminding everybody that he's out there."


"Do you bleed?"


"When that light hits the sky, it's not just a call. It's a warning."

"Bruce, you may have the money, the business, the fame, the women, the tech, the car, but I've got something you'll never have!"

"Look, Tony, the cybernetic exosuit has already been in development for --"

"FIVE INCHES ON YOU, BABY! BOO-YAH!"

"Damn... I was not prepared for that one."

There used to be a greying tower alone on the sea
And you became the light on the dark side of me
Love remained a drug that's the high and not the pill

But did you know that when it snows
My eyes become large and
The light that you shine can't be seen?

Baby, I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the grey
Ooh, the more I get of you, stranger it feels, yeah
And now that your rose is in bloom
A light hits the gloom on the grey

Ba-ya-ya, ba-da-da-da-da-da, ba-ya-ya
Ba-ya-ya, ba-da-da-da-da-da, ba-ya-ya

There is so much a man can tell you
So much he can say
You remain my power, my pleasure, my pain, baby
To me, you're like a growing addiction that I can't deny
Won't you tell me, is that healthy, baby?

But did you know that when it snows
My eyes become large and
The light that you shine can't be seen?

Baby, I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the grey
Ooh, the more I get of you, stranger it feels, yeah
Now that your rose is in bloom
A light hits the gloom on the grey

I've been kissed by a rose on the grey
I, I've been kissed by a rose on the grey
I've (And if I should fall, will it all go away?) been kissed by a rose on the grey
I, I've been kissed by a rose on the grey

There is so much a man can tell you

You remain my power, my pleasure, my pain

Yes, I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the grey
Ooh, the more I get of you, the stranger it feels, yeah
And now that your rose is in bloom
A light hits the gloom on the grey

Ba-ya-ya, ba-da-da-da-da-da, ba-ya-ya
