Rookie Batman

From the Free Comic Book Day 2005 website...

"WizKids
The new DC Heroclix game comes out this Fall, but you can get a head-start with this cool Rookie Batman figure! If you want this preview figure before the new game hits stores, make sure you go to a participating comic book store on May 7 because that's the only place to get it!

At participating stores, while supplies last."

I think it's safe to say this is an Icons sculpt...looks pretty good to me.

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!

Scaarry...

Nice fig. Hope stores get alot.

Looks cool.

When you say "The new DC Heroclix game" do you mean like DC's "Univerce" set?

Pretty Sweet! At least we now have an idea that Icons comes out in the fall! More time between sets=NICE!

So Gotham has the same gargoyles as Spidermans New York City? I wonder if this one has DC Spray painted on it?

So I'm assuming this will be a Rookie Batman much like the Rookie Hulk last time around (aka you don't really need to get one and there will be millions left over).

Guess that proves my post from two weeks ago. Good to know.

Bout time we got a free DC Fig!

Looks like the best Batman Sculpt to date.

So no Icons until the fall? I was hoping they could sandwich that in just before FF in June. Ah well. But I guess this spaces things out adequately for folks who like some distance between the sets.

That is so cool!!! Too bad it is the stupid bat-oval thing.

And he's BLACK!!!!!!

No more of the absurd navy blue! The chest-insignia looks a little big and yellow - *ahem* - but at least this Knight is Dark.

Where are the stats?

That's a pretty bad photoshop add on of the bat symbol!

Still, I agree that this is one of the best looking batman figs to date. It evokes to batman profile on the gargoyle from the jim lee hush run. That is, without actually copying the image and having to pay (more) royaltis to DC!

Kooky.
