DC Multiverse Arkham Asylum Batman

I received this Arkham Asylum video game version of Batman from jboy of The Clawful Punch a few weeks back. Thanks John!

One can never have too many different versions of The Batman! This Batman is from the current 3 3/4" DC Multiverse action figure line, and it's hard to believe this is the first Arkham Asylum Batman to make his way into my collection. I always felt this Batman design suffered from a severe case of Pin-headedness. But the Arkham Asylum Batman is definitely an iconic representation of the Batman, due in no small part to the fact that the video game launched an all new media franchise that continues to influence all things 'Batman' to this day.

As for the figure itself, it's a good effort on Mattel's part to try and keep up with the Joneses (aka Hasbro.) I'm not going to become a Multiverse completeist by any means, but I will gladly pick up a few more figures from this line. I do look forward to the Keaton Batman from this Multiverse line, which people are apparently finding at retail already.
