Kept my BTAS Deluxe Batmobile too -- it just sits on my bookshelf, looking sharp AF.
Figuarts quietly came out with the best overall 6-inch trooper I've ever seen (and I've owned them all at some point), but I think people just had trooper fatigue and the economy's a mess, which is why they're still available.
So that's the Expressions Bats in the pic, but I'll have to look up the Phantasm 2-pack head; I never owned it and can't remember what it looks like.

Yeah, it's the only 6" Stormtrooper helmet I actually like. All the other ones are really weird looking. I also LOVE how his other blasters are the original, unmodified WW2 guns. I love that figure. Definitely one of my favorite Star Wars items.
Don't bother with the Phantasm 2 pack. It's JUST like that one you have on there that comes with the expression pack, but the molding on the nose is chipped off and sometimes the teeth on the mouth aren't painted. I just refer to it as the Phantasm one since that's what it was supposed to look like.
But yeah, that's exactly how my Batman looks as well.

...having been a white plastic addict since about 2011, I can point out flaws in the sculpt here and there, but they got most of it right, which Hot Toys has yet to pull off, and at this scale those tiny flaws disappear.Ah, perfect. I gathered that from my quick web search -- saw some unpainted teeth.

Never bought any of the DCC New Adventures line so this I could be down for this.
The mention of "Gotham City Knights" has me hopeful for Robin/Nightwing/Batgirl as I always liked their redesigns (the villains not so much) That would be an awesome set of figures to have.

Doesn't seems like it. I think DC Fandome is next month, so maybe then.

This is probably a long-shot, but is there anybody in the US who might have an extra Batcave that wouldn’t completely butt**** me on it? It’s my own damn fault for not jumping on it when BBTS had them forever, but the timing never seemed right to drop that kind of cash (it never does, though 
) and now it’s, like, the one very large gap in my otherwise complete collection. Any help tracking one down would be much appreciated.

I saw one in Aventura, FL, back in March, but I completely forgot the name of the shop.
You can search here: https://www.comicshoplocator.com/StoreLocator

It's one of those 6 comic shops that pop up.
Hope you can still get it.

Thanks so much. I’ll definitely check it out! Here’s hoping!
I don't think they're going to upgrade anything they've already released beyond new paint apps, unfortunately.
