Is Mattel about to cancel the production of the forthcoming Dark Knight action figures? 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.
