I wish the toy-makers had made toys of all the main characters including Shreck, and Commissioner Gordon.   :(

Johnny Gobs got ripped and took a walk off a roof, alright? No big loss.


Having a Max Shreck figure would have been cool.

As a kid, I remember seeing the Robin Batman Returns action figure, but at the time knew NOTHING about Marlon Wayans being linked with the role. I just figured it was a nice "what if" since it was very much the Tim Drake modernized Robin.
"Imagination is a quality given a man to compensate him for what he is not, and a sense of humour was provided to console him for what he is."

whoever has the toy license (mattel?) should do toys of the old movies since hot wheels is doing all the old batmobiles and sh*t.

Quoted for Truth.

I mean, really. I think there would definately be a market for action figures based on all WB Batman films. The line could be similar to how WWE market's their "Legends" line.
"Imagination is a quality given a man to compensate him for what he is not, and a sense of humour was provided to console him for what he is."

I've always wondered why there haven't been any DC Direct action figures based on the movies. Or for that matter the Adam West series, Reeve's Superman films, etc.

a talking ice princess doll would be kewl too. now, just so i have it right, she would talk and then i would push the button, right?


Marlon was signed for 2 films. Apparently Burton did not want to use the dick grayson mantle and have him named Robin. In the DVD he indicates that even as it was, there was too many characters and not enough Batman and robin would have convluded that.
