Spotted Online – Battle Beasts Bat
Woah! The Diamond Select Battle Beasts haven’t exactly been firing my excitement motors so far, but the bat posted at Toyark has changed all that . . . this looks awesome! Word is this Man-Bat-like Battle Beasts action figure is a ToysRUs exclusive.
I guess I know what I’m gonna start watching for at ToysRUs.

Not being a Minimates fan, I just wonder how much the decision to base these on Minimates will affect their ultimate success. Are the existing Minimates fans enough to make it a success? Or had they gone with new tooling and a more durable construction, which would have appealed more to me, would that have had more crossover success with non-Minimate collectors? I just don’t know.
