I saw the Halo Heroic collection at a Walmart this past weekend, but besides that Im just starting to see stuff around here that people have been hauling for weeks.

[Spawnomite]

I saw the Halo Heroic collection and Halo Helmet 3-packs also at WM.

[The_Arbiter]

I seriously read "Halo Heroic collection" as "Halo Heroclix".

So how do these (and the GH guitars) look in person?

The Heroic collection looks OK, but I have a hard time justifying $10 for 3 small, unarticulated figures. I also didnt see any Halo points on them either.

We won't see S4 till at least half way through January. And WM probebly won't be getting them till a week or two after Spencers and Gamestop get them. And Gamestop said they weren't getting them til Feb. So we might have to wait till next month for most of the figures.

[ChrisM]

The new Batman show sucks. Flat out. I hate it. While THE Batman messed up alot of character backrounds and the like, at least it was entertaining. Brave and the Bold makes me wanna hurt things every time I watch it for how irritated it makes me. They just, did it, so, HORRIBLE. The opening sequence is just, dumb. It's so bad... And the stories are just boring. I haven't been excited in any of them. I miss my Batman Animated series. I remember when I couldn't wait to see another episode of that. I can't wait till Brave and the Bold gets cancelled so we get another GOOD Batman cartoon out there. And the animation makes me sick. The only good part about it is the cool looking Batmobile, which takes its design off of the Batman Forever model. One of my faveorite Batmobiles to date.

I'm old school. I've always wanted a Batman series based on the 60's Adam West show.

This doesn't remind me of Adam West. I liked Adam West version, although corny, was still interesting. This is boring, uneventful, and dull. I don't even watch it anymore. I turn it when it comes on.

That's my favorite too!

[canuck_spartan]

Where abouts are you located? Just curious to know how close those Transformers are to being up here in Canada

I liked the design. And I thought it was cool how the fin seperated a higher speeds and made it more like wings then a fin. I didn't like how it only sat one though. Batman needs a side seat for Robin or Batgirl. And what happens when he has both helping yknow? Waste of gas having them all on seperate vehicles lol.

The only Batmobile:

I thought it was awesome. Where those pics are I don't know. But I loved Batman ever since I got to sit in that car.

The new Batman figs are called Ultra Armor.

I think its kind of funny/sad that when movies like Transformers and Dark Knight are huge successes, in large part because of their realism, the people who hold the rights then turn around and make the most cartoony and unrealistic looking shows they can come up with to capitalize on the popularity.

Tranformers anime. I know that's another you were referring to. I totally agree. Although, Transformers anime grew on me a bit, I could stand to watch it. I wasn't religous with it, but it was at least something to watch. This Batman show makes me sick when I turn it on.

And they used Oswald from Drew Carrey to voice him. OSWALD!!!

[Ecmagee1984]

Already pick up Transformers 25th Anniversary: Starscream, Hound, and Cyclonus. Im going to pass on maximal Cheetor he doesnt fit in to my collection. Ive seen the Guitar Hero 2 pack guitars I might have to pick up a few for my 6inch figs, they need some Guitars lol
