I personally don't care for the figure. I picked one up this afternoon for any boardie who may still need one. A lot of people like this fig, though

It is one of the best figures mattel ever made imo. The arms are bendable and the body has many different textures.

It;s a really nice fig....but it smells something fierce! I opened mine today at work and I had to go put it in my truck with the windows open to air it out. Seriously, I was getting a headache from the smell of him in my office!

It appears to be the most sought after fig from the series. Many have dubbed it the Clayface wave.

I found one too and like you guys, left it there. I didn't care how rare it is/was, I don't like the figure. I don't understand the appeal, but for those that want it, best of luck to you.

What's not to understand about the appeal? He was a cool character in the cartoons, and that's what the figure kinda reminds me of. It's a fantasticly sculpted figure, all around.

theres really no "kind of" he is obviously based far more on his cartoon apperences then his actual comic ones, and thats perfect with me, because they made him so much cooler in the cartoons. but really if you're not a fan then theres not much to him, just like nearly every other toy out there. i've always loved the character so i was thrilled when he came out, especilly since he came out damn near perfect, my only wish would've been for 1 or 2 extra arms in a hammer or mace shape

Yeah, extra shape-changed arms'd be perfect. Or a Ron Perlman sound chip. :p

don't know how well a chip would do, i honestly can't think of any memorable lines from him. but now that toon disney is airing Batman i can't wait to get to rewatch his episodes :D

He was an awesome character, and I grew up watching the Bruce Timm Batman cartoons (which, to this day, have not been surpassed in terms of story telling quality).

I don't want him that badly though. I still need a good batman figure.

The sculpt is superb. Even I'm tempted to pick up one. There was an old guy cleaning out Targets of DCSH when I visited 2 Targets. He beat me 3 seconds to the pegs on the 2nd Target.

Get the Batman from this same wave then. I think he's a repack, but he looks fantastic...great sculpt...I was tempted to grab it myself.

He's one of the best figures of 2007, but his paint will rub off his arms if you move them too much. To kill the gasoline smell just repaint the arms, I did this to fix the paint rub issue; however, it also stopped the figure from having that strong gasoline smell.
