Top 5 most wanted Mcfarlane DC Multiverse figures based on Batman: Arkham Knight
Along with Arkham Asylum, Mcfarlane has already tapped into Arkham Knight in terms of figures for his DC comics Multiverse line. The Batman he made based on the game looks incredible, and I'm so excited for him to be jumping into this videogame universe so much already! I've made my list for Arkham Asylum already, and Knight has its own slew of great characters and designs that in my opinion need to be revived for a modern collecting audience! So these are the top 5 Arkham Knight figures I want most from Mcfarlane!

One of the many of Batman's sidekicks who appear in the game series, Nightwing has always been my favorite and his missions taking down Penguin were so fun to play! Switching back and forth between Batman and Dick was very creative, and his relationship in terms of Dick refusing to say goodbye to Bruce was very touching.
I personally prefer his Arkham Asylum design, but I think it is so awesome that the character got to headline as the main villain of the final game in the Batman centric Arkham series! His decrepit, hooded form is no less uncomfortable than his previous design, and the horrific face along with the brace on his leg only work to make this version of Scarecrow more unsettling than he already was.
Coming from the DLC for the game, Killer Croc by this point has become truly monstrous and this is one design that DC Collectibles never did for the game series. Croc's appearance was for sure one of my favorite evolutions for the character in the series and really showed that he changed and grew from entry to entry; with the tail being an added addition to his design I really enjoyed.
A true surprise as there is nothing to indicate you're going to run into this freakish villain while gliding through the city, Man Bat doesn't have much in the way of an actual boss fight but his encounters are very very fun and a great side mission to play through. He would make for a very unique figure from Mcfarlane as well thanks to his animalistic design cues and the huge wings spawned under his arms.
With the Arkham Knight Batman already in our collections, I can think of no other figure that would better go along with it. Arkham Knight was meant to be a mystery on who was behind the mask but I think every knew who it was by the time the visor finally came off, though it was still great to finally get such an iconic Batman character into the game series. This new identity for the villain was very cool and he was a great villain to go up against in this entry of the series. I'd love for Mcfarlane to tackle him next when they revisit these games, with multiple options available for which design they'd like to go with.
