But, what really makes Bruce Wayne’s tale great is that it means we get cool Batman toys to play with (some of which we included in our roundup of cool toys for boys).
Batman merchandise isn’t anything new, and there have been action figures and everything else under the sun based on the Dark Knight since before, well, he was even called The Dark Knight. DC action figures are always on every outlet’s list of hot toys for the year come Christmas time, and it’s mostly because of Bruce Wayne’s alter ego.
