Does TRU Have a Dark Knight Rises Display Yet?

Anyone make it to TRU yet to see if they have a DKRises display yet? They had one for The Avengers and Spider-Man, and with the movie coming out on Friday, I am hopeful TRU gets the DKRises display with the final figures needed to complete the Batsignal. My TRUs selection of MM figures have been pathetic so far.

I have seen zero single Movie Masters figures at Toys R Us yet. They've had the Batman/Bane two-pack a few times, but never any singles.

Here's hoping for a good display and a restock.

I was at a TRU tonight and they still had the large Spider-man display up. No TDKR Movie Masters, but they still had TDK Movie Masters and no 1:50 Batmobiles, but they did have two Mezco 2" scale Batmobiles.

No display at my TRU either as of today.

Maybe they will have a display up for Friday, along with some new merchandise. I hit one TRU on Monday and it was still Spider-Man too.

Have R'as al Ghul and Blake actually showed up at retail yet, and if so then which stores/states have then been found in? I know some are on Ebay, but I hadn't heard about any specific store sightings yet.

Yes. Today I went and found nothing special. Just the batman and bane singles. I didnt think they would be out yet.

Still no at a second TRU, still had Spider-man up. K-Mart and Target also had lame excuses for store displays with almost nothing on the shelves, although I did find Legacy Arkham Nightwing so it was not a total loss.

So how many figures are in this line and do you need them all to complete the bat signal? For example, Gordon comes with a piece but it's not really needed for the main bat signal. I was only hoping to buy a few figures to build the bat signal. I have no interest in the actual figures themselves.

You need six figures to complete the Batsignal:

Batman
Bane
Alfred
Catwoman (either version)
Police Officer Blake
Ras Al Ghul

If it wasn't for the Batsignal and that early K-Mart sale (I purchased the first three figures for $12.99 each), I probably would have skipped these at their regular price. But getting three of them for $12.99 was enough to pull me in, especially since I don't mind the Catwoman and Ras at regular price.

That said, there is still no Dark Knight display as of last night at TRU. Maybe today. My Targets and Walmarts are just as pathetic, particularly with the Movie Masters, where it's just Batmans and Banes, sometimes a lot, sometimes just a smattering. The other junk... I mean, TDKR merchandise is in good abundance though.

I still have yet to open any of my MM figures and have all of my receipts handy. If I cannot find the last two to complete the Batsignal, some of these are going back.

It's possible TRU won't have a DKR display. The figures from the last film didn't sell that well, after all. Then again, Iron Man toys didn't really do that well either (though DK actually had better sales numbers than IM).

For those that have a catwoman which one do you think is better?

I have the goggles down. I really want the Goggles up version because I'm a huge Anne Hathaway Stalk.... errr... fan... and I like the likeness of the figure.

Still no. I was at what is considered their flagship store in Kendall today and it was still Spider-man and TDKR stuff was minimal considering the movie just released.
