The awesome guys over at Knight Models have just sent us a very nice preview.
In Arkham Knight, The Ridder has an army of Bots he uses to place Riddles around Gotham and to try and stop Batman.
Now he has brought them to the Batman Miniatures Game!
What do you think of this new crew?
I can't wait to get them on the table and outsmart the Bat!

Unfortunately, I think they look ridiculously silly. I love the Riddler, and was actually quite looking forward to a Riddler band...but I won't be getting this one. Riddler looks like a timeworn mechanic, while the bots look like vaguely out-of-date androids wearing hockey masks.
ReplyDeleteI know this is one of the Riddler's looks in AK, but KM could have done so much better.
Link to my blog ;)
ReplyDeleteThe contents are pretty much exactly what I'd suspected we'd get when I played Arkham Knight. I'd have preferred informers and thugs to the robots, but it makes sense I suppose. I'll admit I much prefer the Free Agent figure over this Riddler. Penemue nailed it on the description of the look. I've never understood it myself either...if he's so fastidious about things, why can't he put on a clean shirt?!
ReplyDeleteI have to agree with Penemue. This is the first crew that really disappoints me.
ReplyDeleteThey even seem a bit out of place when put next to all the other Batman miniatures.
As mentioned by others here and myself on Facebook, I really dont like the way KM have gone with this psersonality of the Riddler.
ReplyDeleteThis is based on the Riddler from the Arkham Knight video game. Knight Models didn't create the look or the robots.
DeleteThat I am aware of. I just meant I dont like that KM have decided to keep putting out the personalities from the Arkham Knight game. Personally I would have like to see the Riddler gang more in keeping with orignal material.
DeleteI'm sure that version will come out at some point, but at the moment they are going with the AK buzz that's still out there. Makes sense from a business point of view.
ReplyDeleteThey may be under licensing terms to release X number of AK miniatires in X time. Im just now getting into the game and am enthralled with he diversity and and depth of versions
