    Mego Flashpoint Batman - Guns?

    Ok so the Mego Flashpoint Batman got cheeped out on and didn't come with guns. I've spent a few mins trying some of the Mego guns and I think the best fit are the Action Jackson (Blade Runner) pistols. Does anyone know for sure what was intended?

    I gave mine two of the Action Jackson pistols and thought they worked fine. I’ve never read the comic book story so I have no idea what the character used in that. I bought the figure because I thought it looked great.

      i don't think it was a cost factor, i believe DC did not want guns with the figure

        yeah, google "WB Action Figure Gun embargo" or simply scour reddit....it was WB's decision to nix any figures with guns following the
        last school shooting.
        its why the McFarlane "Grim Knight" batman is sooooo freeking popular and expensive on the secondary market, as it was the last Batman figure to be sold with guns.
