have you guys ever noticed that the comic action hero robin is taller than batman? ever since i was a kid, i tried to position robin in such a way that he'd be shorter but it doesnt really help :smiley1: probably a factory production oversight...

I never had Robin so the height thing never bothered me but I remember as a kid thinking he looked weird without his green sleeves, as an adult I get why didn't do that but it bugged me at the time.

I recently purchased a Robin (it was only 6 dollars so it has it's fair share of paint rubs) and not only are the green sleeves not there, but it seems as though they didn't color in his R emblem! It annoys me so much! I think I might go out and buy some yellow paint and touch it up myself. :P

The lack of sleeves bugged me on the Pocket Robin (I never had the CAH one as a kid). And the Pocket one is definitely taller than Batman. He looks like Robin on steriods, showing off his "guns".

Yeah, like a "Prison Robin" or something.

not to mention the tight fit in the batmobile for both these guys
