Batman Slams The Batmobile Into Superman

Ever wondered what would happen were Batman to slam the Batmobile into Superman? Wonder no more.

Batman v Superman Battle Armor Batman

Toyriffic: Batman v Superman Battle Armor Batman :: I AM IRON...:
Batman v Superman merchandise is hitting retail now. I found the basic assortment of action figures at Target today and picked up the Battle Armor Batman figure!

No matter what comes of the movie itself, this Batman action figure is a pretty faithful representation of Batman in The Dark Knight Returns, when he armors up to battle (distract) Superman. No matter what you think of Batfleck now or after you see the movie, I think fans of TDKR will still be very pleased with the visual aesthetic of this figure and will find it hard to resist.

Check out the link above for lots more pictures!

60's Batman LEGO set !?!?!?!

http://www.bricksandbloks.com/lego-batman-classic-tv-series-batcave-revealed-photos/

 
It looks like the LEGO Batman Classic TV Batcave will include nine Minifigures,(Batman, Robin, Bruce Wayne (Adam West), Dick Grayson (Burt Ward), Alfred Pennyworth the Butler, The Joker, The Riddler, The Penguin and Catwoman Minifigures) all of which are exclusives in these iterations (although I believe Dick Grayson is the only character we’ve never seen released as a minifig before in his non-Robin guise).

Happy New Year!
