CM4Sci Posted November 8, 2015 Posted November 8, 2015 Maybe there is an exclusive set? The nurse joker and one of the batmans could appear in it? Along with possibly a Harvey dent With all 3 included? Very very very very very doubtful. Either these are fake (I'm leaning towards fake) or.. whatever, I don't know.
Falconfan1414 Posted November 8, 2015 Posted November 8, 2015 One probably is in the bat cycle and the other 2 in a exclusive set
Clone OPatra Posted November 8, 2015 Posted November 8, 2015 As I said before, due to the lack of neck printing I don't think we'll be seeing these in sets. Nurse Joker makes sense as a promo polybag figure, and I guess the Batman one has to be also due to his wings.
Brennens world Posted November 8, 2015 Posted November 8, 2015 *Sigh* I can't believe that we are still talking about these figures. THEY ARE FAKE. There is no back printing on any of them and 2/3 of them are based off old 2006 designs! These are 100% fake. I would go on and make more reasons why they are fake but I would rather not waste my time.
BritishBrickFan Posted November 8, 2015 Posted November 8, 2015 I doubt the Joker is genuine, it's the "Heath Ledger" face, and that was unique to the UCS Tumbler if they're going to release another Joker figure, chances are they'll go with a similar look to the Arkham Asylum set or something, but I doubt they will use the same face as the "exclusive" figure, just to ensure that the UCS set is the only way for people who want that specific minifig
Robert8 Posted November 9, 2015 Posted November 9, 2015 How many versions of Batman have been released already?
CM4Sci Posted November 9, 2015 Posted November 9, 2015 How many versions of Batman have been released already? According to Bricklink, 29, all different cowls, microfigs, etc included.
Robert8 Posted November 9, 2015 Posted November 9, 2015 According to Bricklink, 29, all different cowls, microfigs, etc included. Good lord, is that a record? I'm amazed to see people is still interested in getting Batman for the 30th time At this point I'd be like "whatever..."
Numbuh1Nerd Posted November 9, 2015 Posted November 9, 2015 Also, that Nurse Joker doesn't even have the Nurse Joker hair, and that piece very much exists, so why not just use it? There's no way these are real.
Bricky Dee Williams Posted November 9, 2015 Posted November 9, 2015 Also, that Nurse Joker doesn't even have the Nurse Joker hair, and that piece very much exists, so why not just use it? There's no way these are real. Right? The new Black Widow hair!
BaneShake Posted November 9, 2015 Posted November 9, 2015 Is it possible LEGO made a batch of these iffy figures to identify the workers who keep swiping them? It seems like an easy way to catch someone red-handed, and would explain why the quality is lower-- because they didn't actually need to put as much effort into it.
Aethersprite Posted November 9, 2015 Posted November 9, 2015 Could Bats with the red symbol come with the cycle set?
Amazing Bricks Posted November 9, 2015 Posted November 9, 2015 (edited) Maybe the wings will be in there just as an extra play feature to the cycle chase set. What I'm thinking now is that torso is a fake, and the wings are the only thing worthy of being real. Edited November 9, 2015 by amazingbricks
Deathstroke77 Posted November 9, 2015 Posted November 9, 2015 (edited) All these figures are most definitely fakes (if we are talking a finished product), customs or from cheap brands such as Decool or SY (again, if we are talking finished products). The lack of back printing, re-used torso's and poorly painted wings do not fit with LEGO's current style, they won't just reverse back to old prints like that and use such a bad wing piece. Compare that to the two we got this year. It is incredibly un-detailed, and you can see the poor paint around the edges of the lines. They can not be finished products. There is on one front I will digress; these are prototype figures. Nurse Joker has the makings of a great fig, but lacks back printing and the proper hairpiece, introduced with Black Widow. However it could be a prototype, as they may not have finished the torso print, nor done the hair to a good standard. The same goes for the supposed Batman Beyond figure. The fig is fine apart from the torso and wings. The torso could have been just a quick re-print to see how the colours go and the wings a quick paint job to see if that goes ok. That's could be why they are all old prints and pieces as seen by dates, they could just simply be re-used pieces for a prototype. Like with the Joker figure you'd need a Heath Ledger face, hence the face there. Edited November 9, 2015 by AngelofVengeanceAzrael7

Why would they need that many to test a proof of concept? I can understand QC on a finished figure, but this is not it.
8BrickMario Posted November 9, 2015 Posted November 9, 2015 Real or not, I think we can all agree that these are awfully lazy figures. If these are real, we deserve much better. If not, thank goodness.
Deathstroke77 Posted November 9, 2015 Posted November 9, 2015 I don't know. Perhaps somebody got their hands on one and duplicated them. Anyway like 8BrickMario said if these aren't real then tank god, if they are, then LEGO really need to buck up their ideas. Kids don't care, but LEGO collectors like us who pay attention to detail... This would be unacceptable. Looking back at the £12 BvS set, it seems like we won't get a stubble face. It's a real shame as I've wanted a stubble face Batman for a while now, and Zur-En Arrk will never be released in a set. This would have been a prime oppurtunity to get us some stubble face action. Even if it was just 1 set I'd be fine with it.
Brennens world Posted November 10, 2015 Posted November 10, 2015 I just had a crazy idea.... What is part of that red/ Black Batman minifigure is real? I mean the figure its self is fake but the wings could be from the 1966 set, The 1966 Logo (Not on batsuit but TV/batmobile logo) is that color. What if there is some sort of display thing like in the UCS Tumbler that has the logo on it? Tell me what you guys think..

What if there is some sort of display thing like in the UCS Tumbler that has the logo on it? Tell me what you guys think.. 1. The 1966 logo is shaped differently than the wings. 2. That doesn't explain the second pair of wings 3. Why use those flimsy plastic wings for a display rather than have a brick built one? 4. The logo is all red, not black with red lines
The_Fiery_Rooster Posted November 10, 2015 Posted November 10, 2015 Since the listing has pictures of the tops of the legs like someone here asked that one person who had them, I think it's his listing for the figures. This eliminates the proof that multiple people have the figures. I still think they're fake.
Sir Gareth Posted November 10, 2015 Posted November 10, 2015 Wait, aren't promotion/collectible minifigures produced in China? Because these are supposedly from the Mexico factory...
BlueberryWaffles Posted November 10, 2015 Posted November 10, 2015 That Nurse Joker looks very sketchy to me. The design is very similar to the female scientist in Series 11. And no back printing is even more suspicious.
