Most expensive set is the WORST set! (Part 2)
Ойын-сауық
We review the most expensive set of the Batman vs Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles action figures from DC Collectibles. These figures come from the animated movie, but the Batman and Leonardo set are among the worst so far. I hope the rest of the Batman vs TMNT line holds up!

The "weird" Batman hands are for Raph's sai. He gets to hold them in the movie to use it on his science gajigger to find out where they're from.

Those darn millennials
As I commented on the Donnie/Batgirl video, I got these all when they originally came out. Being a fan of both properties, and having loved the comics the movie was based on, which I also loved, these were worth the retail price when they came out. Even better if you had been able to get some on sale after they hung around for a bit. As far as articulation for the ENTIRE set, this was DC Collectibles, and they RARELY did double jointed elbows or great head articulation before they started the Icons line towards the end. These have better, and MORE articulation that the standard DC Collectibles figure did, and thankfully the joints were not made of clear plastic, which had a tendency to crumble to dust over time.

I totally agree, I actually like these figures a lot... I mean... Look at my picture lol. When they were new they posed great and stayed in poses well excluding batgirl, and Alfred, ankles just seemed weak. Out of the box they actually move unlike.. you know.. Neca, there's no way I could get those poses without a hairdryer or warm water and they still might break.
Glad I got these when i did. They are a fun set once you get all of them and have them displayed together. Definitely not for busy handed types. Gotta pose them and let them be, and not near the front of the shelf. Lol

I don't _really_ have anything else to add, just want to say something positive after my vicious attack comment on you. So, um...I still have these figures in the box! Well, I did open this set, and fondled Batman to see that the cape just fits right over the neck, which is how *every* Batman cape should be. So yeah, my whole plan was to add a wired cape...that I've yet to do. And Batman is still sitting on my office desk for about as long as it's been out.

The Batman and Leo set is the last one I need but it isn’t worth the money imo. I have every set but it, and they’re so fragile and have such thin pegs that I rarely pose the ones I do have around.

Would you believe that the Batman from this set is the ONLY Batman action figure I own?? True story. I also love this Batman. He gives me old school Adam West Batman vibes. I dig the blue. I dig him. The cape material is awesome and lays really nicely...but a wire would be nice, I agree with you there. Leo is OK, and I haven't broken the swords yet. Yet... I have to say that my least favorite figures from these DC sets are Shredder and Ra's al Ghul. They aren't BAD, per se, I just don't care for those characters in those looks. But fuck it, they were, like, $9 each, and they make decent enough background low-level hoodlums. Nice review!
