Robin or Nightwing?

[Bullseye]

Which PF would you prefer and why?

[dechirico7]

I voted Robin, since I don't know much about Nightwing.

[risingstar]

I voted Nightwing since I know too much about Robin.

[Madame_Siryn]

Robin and then Nightwing, Dick Grayson of course. If Nightwing ever get made, will SS use the Red or Blue version?

[Toaster]

I voted Robin. Nightwing is just an excuse for DC to try and make Robin look cooler.

[Klear Knives]

Hmmm. I'd have to go with nightwing. As much if like a robin pf to go with batman if I could only get one it would be nightwing.

Don't get me wrong a Damien robin would be awesome too.

[Bullseye]

I voted Robin. Nightwing is just an excuse for DC to try and make Robin look cooler.

Agreed although I actually think the classic Robin look is cool. I'd love one to go with the BM PF.

[SolidLiquidFox]

There is 1 version of Nightwing out of the 3 that I would prefer. That's the blue/black Scott McDaniel version. Advantage here is that all 3 are Dick Grayson so it is what it is.

Now, Robin is a little more complicated since it's different characters in the outfit. Perhaps the classic Tim Drake outfit would be the best choice to represent the character. You can then make variants from there. Damian Wayne would be my second choice with the classic Dick Grayson/Jason Todd being last.

[Spazzy]

Robin..BUT out of all possible batman universe pf's I would probably want this last, would rather get a commissioner Gordon, which tells you he is pretty low on my want list, would rather see many more villains...azrael would be cool though

[Toaster]

Agreed although I actually think the classic Robin look is cool. I'd love one to go with the BM PF.

Yep me too. :iagree:

[SolidLiquidFox]

would rather see many more villains...azrael would be cool though

Classic Joe Quesada Azrael...yes!

[VS1976]

Nightwing is cooler design. I would buy that before Robin

[JohnMatrix]

Nightwing is cooler design. I would buy that before Robin

:iagree: plus nightwing got your hairstyle too

[VS1976]

:iagree: plus nightwing got your hairstyle too

WTf lol

[Whirl Wind Boy]

Robin and then Nightwing, Dick Grayson of course. If Nightwing ever get made, will SS use the Red or Blue version?

One could very well be the ex i imagine.

I'm voting Nightwing, although i would loove a Damian Robin.

[Spazzy]

Classic Joe Quesada Azrael...yes!



Hell yeah!
Which reminds me I want to pickup the knightfall tpb

[chunkster702]

Batman and Robin, not Nightwing. Tim Drake so I can put him next to my Joker PF.

[CommanderZx2]

My answer depends on which Robin we're talking about here.

Batman Arkham City Robin is pretty badass:
http://i.imgur.com/3rl2ATX.jpg

[XMAN]

Robin...classic all the way.

[mwf6171]

I want both!

[FROBAY]

Robin

[TheYoungWolf]

I voted Nightwing simply because he's my favorite comic book hero, but I certainly wouldn't complain about a Grayson or Tim Drake Robin. If they do decide to go with Robin, I would actually prefer Tim for the costume design alone.

A great representation of both characters is long overdue.

[Submissive421]

The classic Robin doesn't seem to fit with the more mature look that Joker, Ivy and Bats have in my opinion. Nightwing seems like he would fit better. But since their are several different versions of Robin is it kinda hard to say.

[Hellboy]

Nightwing, no contest.

Though I'd take a Tim Drake Robin too.

[DynamicMenace]

i didn't vote because i want to see both of them. :)

[adee]

because Batman and Nightwing doesn't have the same ring to it.

[DynamicMenace]

ok there i voted. if i have to choose. it would be Robin.
because i know they will be making a nightwing anyway eventually.. ;D

[built2shred]

Defiantly Nightwing.... I've never liked Robin's costume...

[DynamicMenace]

i guess it all depends on which Robin. there like 3 or 4 of them..lol

[Shanesg]

This really depends on what robin it is. If they are doing Grayson then I would rather see him as nightwing than robin.

[Loops]

Robin, I would like one to go with my Batman PF.

[EnShinNoi]

Robin. I haven't had anywhere near as much exposure to Nightwing.

[Shanesg]

A Robin dio would be awesome. Grayson(nightwing), Jason Todd(red hood), Tim Drake(Red Robin), Damian Wayne(Robin).

I'd buy that.

http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_mdokzi7diz1rl1pwbo1_1280.jpg

[Snadinator]

Tim Drake Robin would be ok. Classic Dick Robin? No thanks. It would not match up with the black and grey batman pf. Those briefs with exposed legs and elf shoes would not be on display in my house. Grayson is forevermore Nightwing.

[Peedi]

Shanesg I love this pic of the major Robins, I've been using it as one of my rotating screen savers on my computer for a while now

Loaded question for a poll simply because there's a handful of Robins that aren't Grayson but I would probably buy all of these

1. DAMIAN WAYNE although I doubt this will happen

2. Tie because I want them equally:

Nightwing in Black and Blue
and
Tim Drake in either the 90s Green Pants or 2000s long sleeves Red and Black (anything but that New 52 thing with the wings)

3. Grayson Robin

4. Jason Todd Robin, although since he had the same costume as Grayson and they wore it within the same age SS could do 1 Classic Robin PF with switch out heads and arms.

And Probably Not these: Carrie Kelly and Spoiler Robins, sorry ladies

i guess it all depends on which Robin. there like 3 or 4 of them..lol

Before New 52 there had been 5 Robins.

As of New 52 they retconned it to 3 Robins because Tim became Red Robin instead and Spoiler's time as Robin has been eliminated.

[PureInvasion]

Robin

[Matches Malone]

Robin but the more modern bada$$ look. Batman and the other PF's thus far have certainly had a modern skew to them and Robin should be no different. The gonch look for Robin has been completely dead for 25 years+. I would be good for an original SSC, something akin to the Arkham City look or any of these (in chronological order of appearance):

http://i1087.photobucket.com/albums/j466/shadow5685/Red_Robin_Tim_Drake.png

[Matches Malone]

As much as he grew on me over time I vote no to Damian Wayne. Bruce Waynes illegitimate son, retconned to illegitimate clone, retconned to illegitimate son/clone, was a bizarre concept for Morrison to implement in the first place. I imagine now that they have killed him off he will be a footnote in an already overcrowded Bat-verse that should have been rebooted at the time of the rest of the New 52.

[Matches Malone]

I LOVE Nightwing but he is nowhere near as visually interesting as Robin.

[Atheris]

Honestly?

Do you have to ask?

The only Robin I like is the one from Arkham City.

[built2shred]

Old School Robin FTW


https://i.chzbgr.com/maxW500/6121690624/hDDF68D4D/

[JP Sarri]

Dick Grayson was the best Robin without a doubt! therefore, my vote goes to Nightwing.

Scott McDaniel drew him better than anyone else.

Robin the boy - POW -

ROBIN FTW! :hilarious:

Sarah

[jedi_don]

Which Robin? Dick Greyson, Jason Todd, Tim Drake or Damien Wayne? or Carrie Kelley?

When they do Robin, I would expect it to be inspired by the Tim Drake version of the outfit.

[bebohawk]

Nightwing!! It would be cool if they could some how make a switch out color for the uniform Red and Blue

[Vracula]

I hate Robin!I find the fact that batman would let a child fight next to him slight hard to swallow.

[SuperJ300]

I voted Robin of course, you can't have a Batman collection without Robin.

Which one? Who ever looks good next to Batman PF!

I'd go for tim drake robin in red/green outfit and dick grayson Nightwing.

[SuperJ300]

I think Tim Drake has the best Robin suit.

[ALPH4T34M]

Robin, I'm more connected to that version of the character, although admittedly, Nightwing has participated in some excellent storylines. Original outfit Robin would look great in PF form.

[ALPH4T34M]

I think Tim Drake has the best Robin suit.

Which version were you thinking?

[SuperJ300]

I wouldn't mind any, think he has had the best design.

http://i595.photobucket.com/albums/tt36/cod300/image-52.jpg (http://s595.photobucket.com/user/cod300/media/image-52.jpg.html)

Having a hood added to his cape would be cool, for a different look. Maybe that can be the EX.

[SolidLiquidFox]

Tim Drake classic green/red would fit better with this semi-gritty comic accurate collection of Sideshow PFs.

[Shadowfax]

classic Robin ftw...would be an instant purchase for me

[SolidLiquidFox]

This thread needs a better poll. Choices should be:

1. Classic Robin (Dick Grayson/Jason Todd short pants)
2. Classic Tim Drake Robin (green/red)
3. Tim Drake 2nd outfit (red/black)
4. Red Robin
5. New 52 Tim Drake
6. Damian Wayne Robin
7. Nightwing (blue/black)
8. New 52 Nightwing (red/black)
9. Some weird Sideshow blend that takes a little bit of everything like the Arkham City Robin

I guess the poll proves that people want a Robin to go along their new Batman PF more than they want a Nightwing. Perhaps Nightwing is viewed more like his own character much like how Red Hood is viewed right now.

Out of all the choices I still say Classic Tim Drake Robin is the one that fits the best in the current PF collection. They can modernize a few things like the gloves and boots on the Batman PF, but that's the one I would choose.

[Bullseye]

There is only one Robin. The rest are merely poor imitations.

[Shadowfax]

[Bullseye]

Precisely. I don't mind variations as long as it's DG . The character is as old as BM, personally he is the version I would like to go with the BM PF if ever made.

[Peedi]

Out of all the choices I still say Classic Tim Drake Robin is the one that fits the best in the current PF collection. They can modernize a few things like the gloves and boots on the Batman PF, but that's the one I would choose.

I agree that the best option for now would be what fits the current Batman PF.

The current PF has a modern look for Batman that's based on his older costumes and wasn't worn in the comics (as far as I remember) until the 2000s. (despite SS calling the brighter blue cape and cowl and Yellow oval Bat symbol Modern it's really his Silver Age costume).

For that reason, Tim Drake in the Red/Green or Red/Black, Damian or Nightwing with blue would all match with this Batman the best as they're the versions that actually appeared with Batman in the PF's costume.

[SolidLiquidFox]

Precisely. I don't mind variations as long as it's DG . The character is as old as BM, personally he is the version I would like to go with the BM PF if ever made.

Then you want Nightwing. My preference is the blue/black Scott McDaniel outfit. McDaniel's run really brought out the athletic and acrobatic aspect of the character with the multiple illustrations showing motion.

[ReplicantSavior]

Nightwing. Prefer the costume and he was cool in Young Justice.

[The Dark Knight]

My preference is the blue/black Scott McDaniel outfit. McDaniel's run really brought out the athletic and acrobatic aspect of the character with the multiple illustration showing motion.

:goodpost: i can't agree more. :)

I feel the same way.

The red/black was probably influenced by the animated series redesign. Since these are classic comics PFs the best option would be the Classic Tim Drake red/green Robin IMO.

I don't like NWs costume. I prefer the red and green look of the original boy wonder.

[SolidLiquidFox]

:goodpost: i can't agree more. :)

Some great moments on that McDaniel run. Do you remember when the police was hunting Nightwing down and he went through the stair case down like 10 flights in full acrobatic mode? Or when he fought Deathstroke? Awesome stuff. I was like "this is like a Tony Jaa movie! Forget Spiderman!" :laugh:

[SolidLiquidFox]

I don't like NWs costume. I prefer the red and green look of the original boy wonder.

I can respect that. I like the first classic outfit for what it represents but I can't say it would be my first (and knowing Sideshow probably only) choice for the one Robin PF in the next few years.

Yeah, Those were some great moments. Dixon&McDaniel run is the best Nightwing run so far. I loved How Dynamic the McDaniel Nightwing too. :)

I completely agree. Nightwing was one of my favorite comic books of the 90's. I purchased every single issue back then because It was a real pleasure to drool on every page of McDaniel's art. It was extremely intense, dynamic, youthful, dark and greedy, all at the same time. Great memories!

[jansen]

Robin! no contest

[Agent23]

Nightwing. Dick Grayson is one of my fave characters and I just prefer him as an adult.

He looks way cooler too IMO.

[vorpoll]

Grew up with Robin so I want him first but would buy both in the end.

[hunnipot85]

Nightwing (blue/black)

[Matches Malone]

Precisely. I don't mind variations as long as it's DG . The character is as old as BM, personally he is the version I would like to go with the BM PF if ever made.

The problem with that is that Dick Grayson is entrenched as Nightwing. If SSC is to give us a PF of a Batman sidekick(s) they are best served by using a Robin other than Grayson as he will be an appealing offering as Nightwing to most consumers.

So long as Robin is made one could always convey him as a young Grayson in their collection if they so desire IMHO. All four "Robin's" look and were drawn fairly similarly anyways.

[StatueBandit]

Nightwing is my choice ... The original Boy Wonder

[SolidLiquidFox]

I completely agree. Nightwing was one of my favorite comic books of the 90's. I purchased every single issue back then because It was a real pleasure to drool on every page of McDaniel's art. It was extremely intense, dynamic, youthful, dark and greedy, all at the same time. Great memories!

Indeed. Dick Grayson is really one of those rare characters that was capable of making the successful transition from sidekick to hero. Really a testament to the Batman mythos. One of only a handful in DC Comics if you really think about it.

[AlizAbef]

Lol...Nightwing. Nightwing doesn't even have a cape. The Boy Wonder rules. Capes rule. Robin.

[Lionore]

I love Dick Grayson in his Robin outfit!!!
I think Batman's sidekick should be the classic Robin

[COI]

I want both.

[SuperJ300]

Of course, having both would be amazing!

I'd say Barbara, Grayson and Tim probably have the best shot for PFs as Batgirl, Nightwing and 90s Green/Red costume Robin, respectively. Down the line I could see a classic Greyson/Jason Robin in the green undies, especially if we get a Blue/Yellow Bat symbol Batman.

Jason, if he gets a PF, I can see them doing him as Red Hood more than anything (which could turn out quite nice). I also wouldn't doubt a Batwoman PF at some point since at least proven with Marvel, SS likes to interject some more modern favorites into the mix like Skaar and Bucky Cap, Batwoman's on that level.

That leaves Spoiler, Cassandra Cain and my personal pick Damian...Doubtful.

I agree with pretty much everything here. Blue/yellow symbol Bats is the best chance for classic Dick Grayson Robin to be made. Same if you make Dick Grayson Batman your chances of getting Damian increase.

I would rather have Huntress or classic Azrael to round up the batfamily.
