Detective Batman from the Animated New Adventures Line

This is is my favorite plastic version of the Dark Knight. The Detective Batman figure from Kenner's 1998 Batman New Adventures line. He has a simple design that appeals to me. The utility belt design looks realistic and the rubber cape is so much better in my opinion that its cloth counterparts.

The facial features are simple and reflect the cartoon image well. I really like the Bat on his chest, it looks old school and gives the figure a classic look.

Not much in the way of articulation here. Just the standard 5 points of articulation and removable cape. Originally he did have some sort of accessories but I'm sure I found them ridiculous and recycled them.

Kobra Khan seems to think  of Batman has spindly legs and looks a bit top heavy....

Batman is a bit self conscious of his legs....

When will Khan learn to keep his opinions to himself......

Well, I think Khan has learned his lesson.

 

Overall, this Batman figure just stands out from the rest for me. The design and look is classic and has a simplicity that I like.

Even though he has skinny legs........
