Mexico is definitely an AFOL's paradise: Yet another Mexican seller offering numerous minifigures on eBay , including these below from the 2012 Superheroes line, which aren't expected to be available until next January. Say what you will, but I'm already smitten with Mexico...
More seriously, we thus discover in detail some key minifigs of this new range.
Here is the Batman that will be included in set 6860 Batcave . This minifigure is new and in the style of the one released in 2007 in sets 7786 and 7787. It corresponds to Batman's costume from the animated series Batman: The Brave and the Bold, which has aired in the USA since 2008 and in France since 2009 under the title Batman: L'alliance des héros (Batman: The Alliance of Heroes ).
This version of the costume, faithful to the 70s comic book version, is available in the game Batman Arkham City.
Above is the Robin minifigure, which will also be included in set 6860 Batcave . This is Jason Peter Todd, the second Robin to assist Batman in his fight against crime. In short, he died and was resurrected. Or it could also be Tim Drake or Dick Grayson; in short, we don't know for sure, all the versions contradict each other.
This version of the costume is the one available as the Tim Drake Robin Alternate Pack in the game Batman Arkham City.
This version of Batman will at least be included in set 6863 Batman vs The Joker and in the LEGO Batman 2 video game ; it is difficult to confirm for other sets, as the images are of poor quality.
The mysterious Riddler minifigure won't be in any of the first wave of sets. The color of the hat leaves me puzzled. I've always known the Riddler with a green hat in the comic book version, but there are other toys where the Riddler is depicted with a gray hat adorned with a purple question mark.
