So glad that it's not going to be a solely McFarlane store exclusive! I might actually have a chance to get it as an international collector!

I keep hoping he will re-release the Superman and Lois Animated set. But he seems entirely focused on Batman.

I'm holding out hope for the Animated Justice League figures to get reissued, personally. There's a Batman amongst them, so there's a chance...

I already lack room to display the big sets like this, that and the price really made me reconsider buying this. I mostly wanted to get the DC Collectibles one for Alfred really. 225$ plus shipping plus 27% VAT on everything is just too much for something that'll sit in a box somewhere. I had hoped they would improve on the screen too like make the images replaceable, not stickers.

Not a fan of the price, but I am glad to see it getting rereleased as I have been with all the DC Direct BTAS stuff - the aftermarket prices on that entire line have been utter madness, so I hope Todd uses the extra year he has the license to get more reissues out. I'm not surprised that we didn't get Alfred here given that he was released separately a couple of years ago, but the inclusion of *this* figure is... well, I like the '89 style look so I'm not upset that if we had to have a Batman with it that we get something different, but it would have been nice to have something actually from the show. It'll be interesting to see if the stickers still replicate that vinyl thing that DC Direct did on the original to make them supposedly interchangeable.

I hope that this gets a local release for me outside of the US - our specialty retailers have been pretty good about picking them up, so fingers crossed!

I don't understand the price gauging for a reissue of a set like this, especially considering the OG came with an exclusive Alfred. If it came with Montoya or some new figure, then I might be more inclined. Maybe if it goes on discount eventually, we'll see.

$225 was a lot more than I was hoping to pay for this. That's 50% higher than it cost the first time I think and I decided that was too much back then, but had regretted passing on it since. I be-grudgingly still pre-ordered it this time. I used the MTS10 code which basically just offset the shipping charge. It sucks that MTS charges upfront for pre-orders.

The original goes for $500 to $750 typically. There are a hand full that are $200-300 but I dont know why theyre lower.
