It appears that there may have been too many Batman figures produced after the film so retailers have been left with much unsold stock. It seems that many stockists have been cancelling future orders for the figures and some suppliers have been advised by the manufacturers that they won’t get any further shipments of The Dark Knight Movie Masters wave 5.

The stamps were drawn by Matt Groening and the post office had a billion copies printed. A special postmark was used on mail posted at Springfield on the first day of issue.
