In one of my little excursions to Walmart, I was surprised to see the LEGACY EDITION ARKHAM CITY JOKER and ROBIN set for sale.  This is a collector’s set including the ARKHAM CITY Joker and the hooded version of Robin.  Here are some pics of the figures in question. This one will be added to the JOKER’S FUNHOUSE SOON!

I know…some of these might be old, but the truth is that there is so much out there to keep up it is easy sometimes to get lost on the whole thing.  Anyways, I found a source of more incentives added to the Arkham City Preorders and to the moment  I HAVE NOT HEARD OF ANY HARLEY QUINN SKINS being added to the game (but do not doubt they will come, after all they have the base with the Catwoman downloadable content). If anybody knows any different, please let me know so I can post it here, OK?

Anyways, here’s the latest scoop:

ROBIN PLAYABLE CHARACTER

Just at one week for the release of ARKHAM CITY, the much anticipated sequel to 2009’s ARKHAM ASYLUM, images of yet another two villains join the gigabytes of information already loaded the gaming media.  Here are they in a nutshell

1.  New Robin Character comes fully playable in two maps to be included in the preorder of the game. (no specific retailer was announced, but BEST BUY had been announcing a Robin skin incentive if you ordered the game with them, so I don’t know.  The Robins are in reality three.  The hooded ninja looking one and two additional skins: RED ROBIN and TRADITIONAL ROBIN
