bane

Two more additions to the BR collection, minty fresh cards.

I'm trying to go for best quality I can get my hands on, these have all come from eBay so far.

This is Series 2 of BR, released in 1993 a year after the movie. I never had any of these as I had started buying the Animated Series figures instead.

Moving onto Batman Returns, I definitely had some of these as a kid including the Artic Batman. It always amazed me that Kenner never released a figure that matched the actual suit from the movie in this size like ToyBiz did, I think there was a much larger version but never in this scale. I preferred what Kenner did with the design of the base figure over the ToyBiz '89.

As I finished with the ToyBiz line of Batman, well it was only 3 figures, now moving onto the Kenner line that actually started with "The Dark Knight Collection" which was an extension of the Batman 89 movie. For some reason this line completely passed me by when I was a kid, I never knew they existed. I'm sure they would have been released in the UK but who knows! They were released in 1990.

Number 5 is great and the best one along with the first. These films have strayed so far from how they began, I still enjoy them but if you watch the first movie and now watch this trailer its like revisionist history. Street racers were all they were but now they are being hired by Government agencies and now Dom has a brother that was never mentioned and really doesn't fit the narrative of the original. I love the FF movies but these last 4 feel like an alternative universe to me.

Fantastic soundtrack by Toto, I have a soft spot for Dune as well.

I was 13 when they came out and I cringed! Couldn't stand Power Rangers.

I can't see anyone.

I'm always interested in how co-Directors work, normally the director has a "vision" but its interesting to then have 2 people on the same page.

When it pops up on a streaming platform I subscribe to and I have absolutely nothing else to watch..... might watch it then.

Really enjoyed it, right mix of comedy & action. If you were a fan of the first 2, you will enjoy this, really delivers.

Did anyone ask for this? I found the originals moderately enjoyable but 2 was more than enough.

What about Fisto?

Going tomorrow

Agreed, I’ll be picking the figures up for sure.

Yep. Can’t wait to get my hands on these.

I've never read an Iron Man comic so I wouldn't know, which is why it works for me.

I have to disagree with you there, Terence Howard was awesome... Don Cheadle, not so much.

I was very impressed with her portrayal of Paige in Fighting With My Family.

First pickups of 2020 and I'm still on the MOTU Vintage kick. This time we have variants.

About damn time

This. Having seen Return of the Jedi several times the only parts of the movie I enjoy is Yoda's send off, the Battle of Endor (only the space parts) and Luke/Vader/Palpatine. The rest of it is utterly forgettable. Ford does his best to "ham" it up, the whole Jabba's palace scene always bored me to tears and meeting the Ewoks as Gatsby pointed out, grinds the film to a halt.

That guy looks like a young Steve Buscemi.
