Well, I ordered the wave 14 BAT and the joecon Crimson Twins from taobao and they arrived today.
The Twins are pretty much straight repaints from the comic pack versions, so no big deal but they are still fun. The bat is the one we have seen with the damaged chest piece and head, which the HoH version only has the damaged head. The BAT card has some interesting marks around the bubble like it was a prototype that they were lining up the bubble on the card. The date on the BAT is 83151 which would be November 11th of last year. Overall I am pretty excited as these are unique pieces that add some flair to my collection and didnt really cost all that much. Oh, and before anybody cries that these are stolen from the factory or that they are bootlegs, I assure you that neither Hasbro or I care. |

Thanks for the pics.
BAT looks cool. Looks like the Crimson Twins got a tan.

The total cost of buying and shipping them came out to about $70. Surprisingly, it only took 11 days from the time of purchase to the time they came to my front door.

Gotta wonder if getting the twins, baroness and a single viper fro
a source like taobao would be cheaper than the actual set. |
