Breyfogle still remains to be my favourite comic artist, I grew up with his art style in the 90s and when I think Batman, Norm's artwork is generally the first thing I think of
To me this Batman looks much better than the armored one. Still cool sets but I dont like my Bats looking like Iron Man. Cool set and great video, ty!!!
Such great figures. It's a shame that they are Comic Con exclusive. I would have loved to have had them in my collection. I can't make it up there, and I refuse to pay scalpers' prices on the second hand market. Kind of a bummer.
It's plausible that they will be released like normal releases soon, remember the Movie TMNT 4pack, let's hope Neca will be releasing these bad boys individually
Watching this review for the 4th time. Batman is perfection, wow! I'm so looking forward to getting these upcoming DC sets from Neca. Again, very Kelley Jones-esque Batman design.
Great review, watched it 3 x's. Can't wait to get the upcoming NYCC sets from Neca. The style of this Batman reminds me very much of 90's Batman, has a touch of Kelley Jones with those long ears...
it looks like Berni Wrightson's Batman with a hint of Kelley Jones thrown in. I need this more than ever. I already have the SDCC ones now I will be hunting these next week. Great review Spot.
I think you're right I do see a little Kelley Jones' Batman worked in there, for me it kinda reminds me a mix of Jones and Michael Turners Batman, its definitely a unique look but still works very well for this Batman figure Thanks for taking the time to watch JC I really appreciate it!
Both, the Batman figure and the Joker Alien figure are done quite nicely. However, it would've been nice if Batman had been included with some more accessories, especially given the price point. With that aside, thanks as always Spot!
Not bad! I’ll be picking this one up at NYCC. The ears are a little thicker than the proto, and (I’m probably alone here) I would have preferred the head and cowl as 1 sculpt. You lose some articulation, but it looks better IMO. In some of the poses you did, it hid the neck gap well. Nice review👍🏻
Hey spot. Just wanna say yet again. Thanks for all your hard work on these vids !! Been a long time subscriber and viewer since the very beginning over 10 years ago! Thank you ! :)
I have the armored Batman/Predator set and the Superman/Alien set and you are indeed right @thereviewspot, there is just something magical about these figures. I’m not sure what it is but they remind me of the good old days of the 5” DC figures that Kenner Toys used to make. Whether it’s from the Superman: Man of Steel toyline or Legends of Batman, or Total Justice or what have you, these figures feel like updated versions of the figures I used to play with as a kid but it still retains all the subtle nuances of 90’s comics while incorporating all of the aesthetics of a modern action figure with the beautiful sculpts, paint details and super articulated bodies. Really you just can’t ask for a better set. They just hit all the right notes and are great for newcomers and collectors alike. So I like what I have seen so far and based on this review I think I’m going to love the Batman/Joker Alien and the Green Lantern/ Sinestro Corps Predator sets too.
Great review. You are SO lucky! If possible please post some photos of this Batman compared to all the other Batman figures you own, eg. DC Superheroes Series 3, NECA 7 inch Keaton Batman. This reminds me of the awesome Kenner Legends Of Batman figures and card artwork. I really hope I can own this Batman plus the Superman. I love the paint of the Alien that comes with Superman. I especially liked the first Batman VS Aliens comic, where he had longer ears and a capsule belt like this.
Tbh I think I am going to get the DCeased Batman and Superman figures to put with mine, they are closer to the comics and honestly I feel they will look better with poses.
Thank u so much for the heads up, bro. Ordered my bundle yesterday Ive been wanting that joker alien for a long time and the sinestro predator is rad as well. Thank you, again.
Outstanding review, Spot! 🙌🏼 Just this morning I received the SDCC ones and I already can't wait for the NYCC sets! P.S. Could you PLEASE compare this Batman to the DC Direct Enemies Among Us one? 🙏🏼 (Maybe some pics on Instagram?)
holy crap, I thought this would come out sometime in nycc 2020, I'm so getting this for sure, great review spot, I love your batman, horror and etc, videos that you make
It almost reminds me of how he was done for Batman the cult series beautiful mini series if ya haven't checked it out you should. Great figures awesome review
There are no pre-orders for this or the green lantern 2 packs. The batman vs. joker Alien pre-orders were cancelled and the only way to get them on-line is through the necastore on sept.5 and 6. Your all welcome. Good luck.👍
I've turned on neca since they made these exclusives and there constant quality control issues and waiting for mcfarlane to take over the dc multiverse there sculptors are genius great review spot.
Cheers for the review, mate. It was actually very helpful and yet not, for a couple of reasons. I was looking foreward for this set for months yet, probably more a year, always skipping to preorder. These are two of my fave franchises and I wasn't sure if I could use a Xenomorph that color, whilst Batman seemed to come close to my favourite interpretations. Thing is, my inner Monk wouldn't allow me to display them separately and as much as I enjoyed the crossover, I didn't feel the need to have a set of figures of it. Now, looking at it in higher detail, I'm not so much a fan of Batman's head. I'd preferred it to be more like a regular cowl you would usually find in that scheme. On the other hand, the Alien works so well in its colours, that I now really would love to have one of these. I just wouldn't spend the asked price for the set as Batman doesn't match my expectations, just to display him with the Alien so that the face is less prominent. It's luxury struggle, and I probably am going to regret not buying at some point, but your insight at least totally twisted my opinnion on the set with just the result beeing the same - I'll probably skip. But actually, I now know exactly why. It's really just details I wouldn't have known otherwise, so thanks for that.
Thank you for your clear statement that you were sent these early to review by NECA. You always state honestly at the start of your reviews where you bought your items, or have been sent your items. An in depth review as always.
@@TheReviewSpot Oh yeah Pufnstuf for sure because he wouldn't feel Batman's attacks seeing as how they all must've been on drugs when they made that show lol.😄
Im so fuckin sad,its the perfect Batman figure and it will never officially get a single carded public release,i would love neca too do batman figures,Robin in specifically with that on par marvel legends articulation.So disappointing that people who cant make it too NYCC will never get too see this figure
With McFarlane getting the DC license it's highly unlikely that we'll see more of these. Such a shame as it would have been pretty cool to get a NECA justice league. That said, they could always do other Darkhorse stuff such as Predator vs Judge Dredd. When asked on Twitter Randy responded that they didnt have the Dredd license which 2000 AD replied "Always happy to have a chat :)" so it's always possible.
i love that joker alien . ive seen the comic . what would be cool if the alien had a torn up purple coat or cap like cloth. but great batman as well . great Review Spot as always :)
@@TheReviewSpot There is a certain rhythm to your voice. You have a habit of announciating/elongating certain words mainly at the end of your sentences.
Pre order for me will not be possible sadly. This will be on ebay in due course for silly money. Shame they do not have the rights to sell outside these shows. Would be extremely popular this set.
Right ?. i thiink Necas KILLIN IT w/these DC heros.I like the Aliens so so,but Dam ! i cant wait to get Batman alone,after market.I also wonder why Neca didnt take over for the DC lines of heros.If they are legally allowed to do these special sets,while McFarlane does the rest,im down.I havent wanted a Supes fig for at least 2 decades.....until now.
I really hope NECA will release these figures seperately down the line.
mickey perdomo unfortunately they will never be released again. Only way is at NYCC or the pre sale
ebay knockoffs might be a way to get them; like the TMNT figuers. Lets just hope someone in China got a hold on these to make molds.
Today is 5/27/20. I just picked this set up at my local Walmart. Gotta love unexpected surprises!
Kudos for the Norm Breyfogle mention. His art style is what got me into collecting Batman comics as a kid.

Thanks for taking the time to watch JC I really appreciate it!
@@TheReviewSpot it looks a lot like a simon bisley batman...specifically from the judgment on Gotham crossover with judge dredd.
Well, Berni Wrightson _did_ draw the original Batman/Aliens.
Super cool figures, nice accessories, and first-rate reviews! :)
Both, the Batman figure and the Joker Alien figure are done quite nicely. However, it would've been nice if Batman had been included with some more accessories, especially given the price point. With that aside, thanks as always Spot!
Well he only really needs sharpened Batarangs to deal with Xenomorphs.
I'd like to see NECA tackle the Injustice-verse characters as i think they could definitely nail the whole "gear" system change ups and whatnot.
I got two sets and both came with three friggin fists. No bararang holding hands
Not bad! I’ll be picking this one up at NYCC. The ears are a little thicker than the proto, and (I’m probably alone here) I would have preferred the head and cowl as 1 sculpt. You lose some articulation, but it looks better IMO. In some of the poses you did, it hid the neck gap well. Nice review👍🏻

These are my definitive Batman and Superman figures! NECA ftw! Realy...
These ARE the figures I've been looking for. 😄
Oh wait! Wrong fandom!
They're still cool as hell, though!
Batman: get way from me you S.o.B.
Alien :aaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!
If only Neca can release a Batman Returns Batman figure. Cross our fingers.
Amazing sculpt and paint job on Batman

that design on a future Batman movie suit but all black. That would be epic
