Just when you thought Hot Toys couldn’t make a better Batman action figure, along comes a better Batman action figure.
Sorry, figures.
I don’t know what to get more excited about with this new “Dark Knight Armory” piece by the Hong Kong-based toysmiths. Maybe it’s the fact it comes with Bruce Wayne, who is looking sharp. Maybe it’s the fact it comes with a Batman figure, along with what looks like 117 billion accessories.
Or…no, it’s definitely the fact it comes with a highly-detailed Alfred. Because a lifelike Michael Caine action figure is all we ever needed.
Because this thing will costs hundreds, it’s going to be available in three flavours: one with just Batman, one with Batman and Alfred, and one with all three figures.
No word on a release date or price, but “2014” and “more well than you can imagine” are safe bets.

Why not just write ‘figures’ to begin with?
… I think you mean ‘varieties’
1, because their last release was a single batman figure that we all thought couldn’t be topped and for the sake of that particular sentence, using figure as opposed to figures works better.
2, using flavours in place of any other word that denotes multiple varieties of a thing is pretty common, admittedly informal but it is still used, flavours of car, flavours of shirts etc.
3, costs…fair point, also it should probably read “because these things”
Looks amazing,
but imho, the greyish hair on Bruce makes him look a bit too old
That might just be the lighting
