Yeah, I'm into that as well.

My default would be to reuse Heroclix Icons #40 Batman since I have that one already and dig that figure.

[Soundwarp SG-1]

Actually I guess I should specify blue cape grey suit... but I'm not sure blue cape black suit has ever been a thing?

[IAmBatman]

Not that I'm aware of. Sounds like a hideous idea, though.

Pretty sure you mostly just have blue cape, grey suit; black cape, grey suit; black cape, black suit '89 style.

[IAmBatman]

I don't suppose anyone has this guy for a picture? (Joker's Wild Batman 016)

[Soundwarp SG-1]

Pretty sure I have that

[Karat]

I might as well. I at least have one that looks pretty similar. I'll let Soundwarp look first though.

Sweet. Would love a pic if you can so I don’t have to buy another Batman clix.

[Tornado]

Blue cape, really dark gray suit?

[Lord Pyre]

Grey cape, blue suit?

Digging this so far.

[IAmBatman]

Glad to hear it. I think he'll definitely breathe some new life into the faction.

Pretty solid victory for the Fighters. The Outsiders had a little bad luck with some of their rolls, but mainly the Fighters just rolled pretty decently on offense. The Outsiders felt like they had some potential, but their pieces felt overall weaker compared to the Fighters.

THOUGHTS ON THE TESTED UNIT'S COST, BALANCE, & DRAFTABILITY:
Makes for a nice additional leader for the Outsiders. Works well with Geo-Force. Powers were all useful. May be slightly overcosted as-is. I could see 200-210 based on these results.
