So...so does this mean that I...finally have a legitimate excuse to play a miniatures game while doing the Heath Ledger Joker voice?

Only if you can do it well!

Bane didn't really BEAT the Bats though did he? Just... hmmmm... Temporarily stalled him?? Maybe!!

I mean the Dark Knight did Rise up (excuse the terrible pun) and defeat him in the end... Called Tactical ass kicking... He let Bane beat him so he could Tactically assess Bane's speed, endurance and strength...

Also Cat's and Talia were always bound to kick his ass... He's a playboy, loves his women

No, Bane crippled the Bat, it was only with magic the he was able to heal. I think that count as a hands down win for Bane.

Well feth that.

Batman is cool, the sculpting of the minis is great, but that price seals its place far towards the bottom of my want list.

The one that gave you the actual price?

I mean, I think that's it, right?

Was going to respond with the same thing then I read your.

Yep, much better shipping rates from TheSupplyDrop, so I just dropped in an order for the Joker set.

Good times!

Yes the Price is $37.75 USD here in the States. My store will be doing a one week pre-order as we want to make sure everyone who wants these can get them as no store in the States as of yet Carrys these. It will all coincide soon with our Black Week sale upon relaunch of the webstore.

But in the end Batman got him. He is the Chuck Norris of last laughs, right.

Would be fun though. Batman miniature game. First turn rolls around and Batman get's killed by the jokers thugs or whatever.
I'd call it canon.

If that was the case then, until one of the is dead, with 100% of never coming back, no one could ever win.

If Batman died in the Batman Arkham City Miniatures Game you knw they would just probably make a new expansion for it called The Dark Knight Rises - Again!

Thanks for those orders guys. These will be processed tomorrow on return to the office.

What is the actual MSRP I should expect in FLGS? The 37 or is
that price with a discount?

I believe that his 37$ would be a discount!

Joker starter sets retail at around SRP 34euros ish inc Tax.

TSD

I'll be waiting to see what other crews are released, as well as wait to hear about the game itself.

While Batman has an awesome rogues gallery, that also makes it hard to choose a crew to go with.

Nope the $37.75 is undiscounted at this current time. Be mindful i pulled rates yesterday and they.change day to day.

Ah the gentle insanity of US goods when the come over here

not quite as bad a the complete raving insanity of GW prices when they hit Australia, but pretty bad none the less

That's how I live my life. And I haven't lost yet.

I'll have to ask my local store if he can order them somehow. Want to support him too.

Actually, no, Batman didn't get Bane in the comics. I just read the full Nighfall comic and Azrael (Jean Paul Valley) took the place of Bruce and kicked the crap out of Bane. The real Batman did not beat him after getting better, but I haven't read many Batman comics, so I'm sure Batman beat him in the future. But beating him right after recovering? No. Bane whooped him.

The 'real' Batman did fight him later on, and beat him.

Like I said, I'm sure Bats got him in the future. But when it mattered, he got thumped and didn't properly get to prove himself. However, to be fair, Bane broke everyone out of Arkham, wore Batman out trying to capture them all, plus Batman was sick, and Bane beat him in his weakest state ever. I'm sure when he came back into his prime, Batman would wipe the floor with him.

Given it's based on Arkham City there aren't too many choices.

Joker's crew.
Penguin's goons.
Two-Face's men.

I guess they could introduce Professor Strange and the TYGER security guys, along with the Leage of Assassins (and, in fact, I hope they do), but while there are a lot of bad guys in Arkham City (Calendar Man, the Riddler, Hush, Mr. Freeze, Zsaz, etc.) most of them are loners.

They'll be an easy mechanic to get them to 'goon up', I'm sure!

Yeah but consider who they are:

Croc? He'd eat you.
Calendar Man? Dude's a complete psycopath and he'd just kill you.
Freeze? He just wants to be left alone.
Zsaz? Do I need to explain?

Out of all of them it's only the Riddler that has goons, but they're infiltrators in all the other gangs.

In which case I'll still have to wait, because I'd much prefer Two-Face. Or a Riddler crew if they did one. As long as I get the Riddler I'll be happy though.

I could do a Two-Face crew with a Riddler 'free agent', and spend the game talking like Tommy Lee Jones and Jim Carrey just to piss my opponent off.

I want Bane so I could do the voice

It doesn't matter if you do the voice...what matters is that you buy the mask.

Damn south park...

Except Bane. Bane can beat him if Batman rolls a critical failure on his spine-check. Also, Catwoman and Talia armed only with a thong and a bottle of lube also beat the Bat.

And Deathstroke, he's beaten the Bat canonically 2 or 3 times. And not just physically, either.

The Dark Knight (will be a) Titan in this game!

So true, I even found a company that does them for dogs so that everytime they bark I can hear "Hello There".
