OK, for now, this is sort of a rumor I have not been able to 100% confirm but supposedly Japan will have a completely different Batman Statue inside their Japanese retail version of the BATMAN: ARKHAM CITY Collector's Edition Video Game. We have all seen the Statue for the USA & Europe versions, it's pictured on the left. On the right side might be the one for Japan. It's basically the same thing, just more colorized. It also looks a lot more realistically detailed. But hey, please stay tuned to the Bat-Blog & if we get more information on this then we'll report it.
OK, I woke-up this morning to discover that there are even MORE MORE MORE Costume-Mod Skins for Batman: Arkham City! Keeping up with it all is driving me crazy and I predict that there will probably be many more, ha! For now, here are the ones that will be foreign exclusives to certain companies. I would like to add that I think all of these will be made available to everybody in the future. I mean, you know everyone world-wide is going to want each and every Bat-Suit! Here they are - From left to right: Batman Beyond, The Dark Knight Returns, Batman Earth One, 1970's Batman, and The Animated Series. The last one is the Regular "Arkham City" Version.
For now, the break-down on who is offering these skins is as follows: - ShopTo.net (UK) or Toys ‘R Us (USA) – 1970′s Batman
- MightyApe – Batman Beyond, Earth One, The Animated Series
- GameStop.co.uk – Batman Beyond
In BATMAN: ARKHAM ASYLUM we could all pretty much be Batman but all with the same costume. For BATMAN: ARKHAM CITY there has already been an announcement that, in the Special "Limited Collector's Edition" of BATMAN: ARKHAM CITY, it will include a Frank Miller-style "The Dark Knight Returns" Batman skin that will change the appearance of the character to look like the TDKR version. OK, it's been announced in the UK that if you buy the "Limited Collector's Edition" of BATMAN: ARKHAM CITY from a company called SHOP TO, you can get a free EXCLUSIVE download that will enable you to have a 1970's Inspired Costume Skin ( see the pic up above ). Now, I'm not sure if this will be made available in the USA or if it will even work with American Consoles. But if you're curious & wanna check it out then here's a LINK!
OK, I know the new Batman Video Game is "Arkham City" but here's a video showing a pretty awesome 6-Monitor PC Gaming Set-Up using "Asylum" as a demo. Oh man, it's crazy! I bet if you were setting there, close to the screens, it would seem like a more natural view. But, I wish the monitor edges were not showing, more seamless, but this is still pretty cool!
Here's an extremely cool BANE Batman Villain WALLPAPER to decorate your desktop. Now, I didn't take this photograph so I can brag about how awesome it is, ha ha! This was a photo sent in by a Bat-Blog Fan named Steve. He loves the New BATMAN: ARKHAM ASYLUM Action Figures so much that he took this awesome photo of BANE from the series. The lighting is great and you can really see some of the fine details. Oh man, I want this cool toy! ( Thanks Steve ) Plus, with Bane being a major character in "THE DARK KNIGHT RISES" movie the timing is perfect!

Here's a nice 12 minute long video made up of various clips from the BATMAN: ARKHAM CITY Game. We get to see some great action & game play featuring Catwoman & Two-Face, the characters look great! Oh man, this game just keeps looking better & better!
One of the things I love about collecting Batman stuff is that over the last 40+ years they have made a TON of merchandise that you can hunt down. So, you can never "have it all" or, in other words, you can collect it forever! It's sort of the main inspiration for me creating the Bat-Blog. Then, speaking of this site one thing I really love is connecting with other Bat-Collectors. I always like seeing other people's stuff, what they have & how it's displayed.
Shown here are a few photos of "Ryan's Batcave". as you can see he has some extremely awesome Batman Toys, Action Figures, Collector Plates, Statues, Framed Art Prints, Posters, etc... even a 1989 BATMAN MOVIE Video Game Vending Machine ( my favorite piece! ). Well, I really like the "Animated Series" Collector Plates too. Ryan seems to have focused a lot on the items from the WB Store. We used to have one here where I live & I really miss it. They had a lot of high-quality items. Well, anyway, please check out all the cool pics and I wanna thank Ryan for sharing his personal Bat-Collection, it's very very cool!
A lot of people are going to be buying the new BATMAN: ARKHAM CITY Video Game. I mean, it looks incredible & has already been getting great reviews. But some of you might want a little extra edge on the game. Well, you need to look for this new "Batarang Controller". They're making 2 versions for both the XBox 360 & Playstation 3. If you look at the top-center of the controller you can see a special bat-shape with a few buttons to add very delicate control functions to your game play... cool!

More information for the BATMAN: ARKHAM CITY Video Game is finally coming out. The PENGUIN has been officially announced as a Villain for the series.
