Is Movie Masters Catwoman TRU only ??
Got mine on Amazon when it was in stock. Over the past few days, several people have been finding her at Barnes and Noble stores of all places. Didn't see her at my nearest, but they now have a toy section.
Thanks for the tip. I was able to pick her up at a B&N today after reading this thread. I also saw quite a few Alfreds. If you go to B&N, keep an eye out for a four-sided Batman toy display. They also had plenty of the Hot Wheels 1:50 wave with the Duck and the Batcopter.
Went to 2 different Barnes & Noble stores today and they had the goggles down version at both. Bought one. The one I bought from Amazon was the goggles up version.
Along with the Wal-Mart Jim Gordon I found earlier this week, I'm finally caught up....for now.
Right after I read this post I called 3 Barnes and Nobles...."Sorry sir, all we have is Booster".
Oh well, I won't buy Bats or the rest of the line unless I get Catwoman first.
They're mixed into an entire 4-sided display of Dark Knight toys. I wouldn't trust any employee over the phone to look through the entire display for Catwoman or even be able to find the display in the store. At both the stores I checked, the display was in the last place I looked in the store. And there are separate superhero displays with some Batman stuff on them, which made me think I had found the right display at first and that they just didn't have Movie Masters.
Same here in Northville/Novi (6mile & Haggarty). Hard to find the 4-way, but once located, it did contain
a goggles down Catwoman! 17.95-ish, but with wife's Barnes&Noble card, got 10% off.
They also had some 4 1/2 inch 2-packs with different Bats and Banes, as well as a cool Mezco (?) Batmobile
with Batman, and a couple of diff 2-packs; not into those.
Just wanted to give a quick Thank You to all the folks who mentioned Barnes & Nobles in the search for batstuff. I found the 1:50 Batcopter I was looking for. Picked up 2 of them, leaving at least 6 of the Penguin's duck behind.
The Penguin's duck? Good job Mattel, you found something even better than the Batmissile to warm those pegs far into the future. $9 for a diecast duck (that probably won't even float), yeah... sure.
Anyway, Thanks again to everyone for the heads up. It's a big part of why I come to this website.
I just want to throw one more "Thank you!" onto the pile for recommending Barnes & Noble. I found a goggles-up Catwoman and the Arkham City Batman/Catwoman 2-pack. I may be in the minority, but I love that Arkham City Batman. That's the third deco I have of it, and I would cheerfully buy a few more color variants. It beats the heck outta the DC Direct one.
So is the Catwoman goggles-up or goggles-down a packaging variation and the goggles can do either position, or is this an actual variant figure?
Actual variant figure due to the goggle accessory itself.
The goggles on the "goggles up" variation have the inside of the lenses facing upward towards the sky. If you were to lower them down on her face, the inside of the goggles would be facing you. As an aside, these look like they were placed incorrectly on the figure (nose bridge should be facing back of the head, not front).
The goggles on the "goggles down" variation look like regular glasses. If you were to raise them above her head the outside of the lenses would be facing upwards towards the sky.
At any rate, the figure itself is the same, and even though the goggles are separate pieces on both, they are stuck on her head either with glue or paint residue preventing any movement without damage. At least on mine they are.
Oh and in case I didn't write it enough, goggles, goggles, goggles, goggles.
Perfect....
I stopped by my local TRU at lunch today who had removed their 2 pegs for Batman DKR Movie Masters pegs due to lack of product. So then I tried Barnes and Noble..which took me back to the days when I was searching Captain America Movie Figures at Books a Million. The Employees were clueless but eventually I found the Batman DKR display minus the Catwoman MM Figures. I did find the Mini Mez-it Tumbler and Batman, which I almost bought, until I found the price of $25.95.
So unless Target or Walmarts get the Catwoman Assortment...no Batsignal for me.
