Toy Review: DC Universe Classics Nightwing
Jul. 6th, 2010 03:33 pmI wasn't expecting to post another review so soon, but I got a nice surprise when I walked into Myer yesterday (Melbourne's largest department store chain, for those who aren't local) and found a bunch of DC Universe Classics figures. I've never seen them outside of a speciality shop down here.

Nightwing was the only one of the 75th Anniversary wave that I wanted and hadn't already bought elsewhere, so home he came. His bio reads:
After his parents were murdered, young Dick Grayson was adopted by Bruce Wayne, becoming his ward ... and, as Robin, his partner in the war against crime. Years later, Robin struck out on his own as Nightwing and now lives in the corruption ridden city of Bludhaven where by day he serves as a member of that city's police department.
See, that's dedication. At least Batman is a billionaire play-boy when he's not protecting Gotham; Nightwing even fights crime during his off hours.
( More Nightwing-related goodness below the cut. )
On the whole, a good figure despite the minor QC problem, just not the most exciting to look at. A 7/10 from me.
