So I just got an email announcing Mattel's release of a new wave of Multiverse figures over on BBTS... and while most of the figures are pretty typical fare for a line that is 85% Arkham figures, there were a few listings that had me... very, very confused.
#5 Batman 4" Basic Figure - Batman & Blade Wolf
#6 Batman 4" Basic Figure - Batman & Skyfire Dragon
#7 Batman 4" Basic Figure - Batman & Airblade Bat
Did I miss something? The product ads I've found list these as including "futuristic sidekicks," but I have no idea what comic or game they've been pulled from. Since I'm kind of out of the loop on DC, can someone fill me in on whether these are an actual thing?
These are not names I recognize. Nothing from the New 52 for certain (unless it's something really obscure).
Not a clue. Could be something Mattel came up with, like robot sidekicks or something like that, which would be weird.
I feel less confused now that I've found a bit more out... apparently these are not from the multiverse line(which already has plenty going on with arkham figures, movie figures, and the like), but are more likely from the kiddie Batman line whose name I forget. Makes more sense for that one to have random characters.
