Robin looks good, from the neck down and minus whatever the hells going on with his right hand. Ugly head, like the game i guess. Damian remains the only non awful robin

Fixed that for ya. Agreed though that the head here looks like pants.
Reality is a nice place to visit, but I'd hate to live there.

Sorry, foot on rock-hands on hips is still better than lame standing there robin, this new horrorshow and dancing Red Hood. Details are pretty, poses are kind of gak.
O WELL it is still a batman game giving me the option of having 4 different robins, and nightwing. 5 Robins!
Killer Frost is nice, more hands on hips but ok. She in one of the games? What other gakky Firestorm villains can we look forward to? A multiplex 4 pack with Multiplex as the band leader with Multiplex as sidekick and a couple Multiplex for henchmen, i'd buy it.
I actually really like the Arkham City Robin, the Red Hood and Nightwing far more than this one, but the Damien Wayne I really don't like.
This new one would look alright if you sculpted on a hood and got rid of whatever is in his right hand (I don't recall him using anything like that in the game itself), but I'd rather just get the original hooded AC mini.

He used it in arkham city, was a bullet shield type thing. Didn't use it in Knight though.
Actually he has it in Arkham Knight as well. You don't get to play as Robin too much during the main story though, so you might just have missed it in his gadget listing.
It also doesn't help that for whatever reason, Knight Models has Robin with his bo staff in one hand and his bullet shield in the other. The bullet shield is PART of the bo staff.

You might be right about him having the gadget in Arkham Knight actually. As you rightly say you don't get that much play time as Robin.
Yeah that confused me too. I was pretty sure his staff and shield are one in the same so no idea why he has both in the pictures I assumed maybe I had remembered incorrectly.
That explains it, then! Although at point in the game I was too busy punching stuff to fiddle with gadgets, I'll pay more attention in my current play through!
Still not sure I like it on the mini, though, and I agree that him using two Bos at once doesn't look good. I guess you could easily remove the left handed one, but I'd rather the other one went.
Honestly, I only realized that Robin had it when I was goofing around with his gadgets during the bit you get to play him. His(and the other dual team partners--Catwoman and Nightwing) gadget listing was pretty lackluster.

Anyone wanting Killer Frost in the UK, Wayland have her for about £8 today. Don't know if that'll be any saving over someone like Troll Trader after shipping, but I figured it was worth mentioning.

On a side note, can't wait to see this month's previews turn up, this may be my new favourite game/range! My wallet, of course, disagrees!
*bursts though room with axe* HEEEAAARRRS JHONNY!!!
I would also like to point out that the AK Robin also has a hooded head option as well, for those who disliked the bare head option
As for this months releases, I'm afraid from what I'm reading in the official FB group is that people are saying that there are no releases this month due to KM moving factories or something along those lines
Sad times when you're waiting for a Freeze starter set and when lots of people are eagerly awaiting the AK Scarecrow gang starter and the AK himself
Don't suppose you have a pic of the AK Robin with the hood? That and possibly removing one Bo could save the mini.
From the BMG forums regarding this month's release (or lack thereof)
I don't know how all the gears work, but I know several things were down to the wire- some fairly major rewrites, and an insane amount of playtesting went in just hours before the printing deadline last week. I will say that the new stuff is pretty cool, and I am excited to see how players react to it.
KM underwent some major changes this month, with warehousing and moving, so it is impressive that they even still have
I imagine things are in DC's mighty hands of approval now....... which is unfortunately anyone's guess. Of course, everyone is excited to see/get the new releases- but patience is good!
So there is 'something' made and scheduled for this month, but it may or may not be released 'this month'. No idea if they're planning to double up in September or what.
I'm really hoping we get the Scarecrow/AK crew sooner rather than later.
Not a character I have any great interest in, but nice enough models.
