I also learned it's a target exclusive. I work at target and have never seen it can anyone tell me more about it? Has this thing already come out? And for $20 retail I'll jump at the chance.

It's not being released till mid next month I believe. It's compatible with the Movie Masters Batman that was released with the movie.

No clue. Nothing has been seen of him since that one show about 4 months back. And even then, I don't believe that was a Movie Masters figure. I think it was for the regular Dark Knight line as it was the same height as the crappy Deathstroke they're planning on releasing.

Not a Movie Master's figure, but a very special and exclusive item nonetheless. It appears to be a Japan exclusive.

BBTS has just acquired a very limited quantity of
12" RAH (Real Action Heroes) Harvey Dent A.K.A. Two-Face

http://www.bigbadtoystore.com/bbts/prod ... icture=out

It is outrageously expensive. But looks real nice.

RAH sucks nuts. Hot Toys version of Two-Face puts that thing to shame. And it costs less to boot.

Right now, no price, but if it's like all other HT figures, it'll be around $120-$140.

well I stopped by target last night and sure enough I found em. Batman fits ok on the bike but he can't bend enough to fit well. Overall though it's got great detail, rubber tires and lots of wear on the paint. Really worth picking up and a great deal at $20

After watching the truck scene on youtube I wondering...
1) where do the wheels for it come from? It says in some places from the front wheels of the tumbler but if that's the case does the bat pod like fold in two and lock together when the eject sequence is engaged?
2) In the scene where he rolld out of an allet, does his front wheel spin to the side? I know they're really random questions I was just thinkin somebody might know. :lol:

The Batpod is made up of the front left axle which includes the tire. The seat is his drivers seat and the rear tire is affixed behind the drivers position. It just disengages from the rest of the Tumbler.

And yeah I do believe the front tire can rotate 360 degrees on it's X axis. Probably used to better align itself with whatever object it is riding along.

ok I was watchin the truck scene again (love the scene) But what I don't get is why the police didn't just go around the firetruck and keep going rather than take lower wacker; they had air support. And another thing why didn't the SWAT team shoot back at joker :-? Also who the hell is the truck driver? Maybe a goon or some random truck driver being paid off. He just dosen't seem like somebody who would work for the joker. I know these are kinda annoying questions I just wanted to see what everyone else thought.
