I thought I would start a thread for all the Batman Unlimited figures :adambomb:

I got the final two figures of the line this week. I really wish they would have given them an ab crunch. I really like the design for Deathstroke, but the articulation on the legs was horrible. I replaced the factory joints in the knees and ankles with Revoltech Joints, and cut out some of the material of the waist so his legs could move forward more. After a little paint touch up he will be going up on my DCUC shelf. I like the Arkham Origins Batman, but there are few things off with him to me. One his head seems a little too small, his arms are a little too short, and he could have really benefited from an ab joint.

Nice pics, olds! I totally forgot about this final wave!! It doesn’t look half bad, either, unlike the awful Injustice final nail DC Unlimited got.

I forgot about them as well until I saw the write up about them over at the fwoosh. Well Slade has the same articulation as the terrible injustice figures in his legs, but that was fixable with some cutting and a little work with the dremel to pop in some revoltech joints

I was looking at that Deathstroke online and thought he looked pretty cool. Then I realized it was the DC Collectibles version, lol. I don't like the Mattel version nearly as much. Guess I'd buy hin for parts at the right price hut losing the ab crunch makes me less interested. Cheap skates. Hasbro puts in mini BAGs and kits if weapons for the same price. I know Spade has some nice weapons but offsetting that cost with removing the ab crunch is a cheap call. Its why I can't get into the Movie Masters line.

It's too bad all these retail lines died...I bought Batgirl as soon as I saw her (and she was the only one ive ever seen) and of the final wave I've only ever seen Nu52 Bats and the Zur-en-Ah Bats which was "meh"...but thanks to my cousin I have TDKR Bats who's still minty-fresh!

I liked where the DC and Batman Unlimited lines were going but sad to see these types of figures go, to make way for these new stupid toys

I think the sculpts on these are pretty good but I could see myself repainting them.

I’ll probably do the same with mine... if I get them.
