The bats were criminally underused. Honestly all the second wave villain tribes were wasted
But...if Batman goes on strike...who's gonna' defend Gotham? Come to think of it. where will the JLA get most of its funding and technology...:)

When I saw this, my first thought was, "Huh, I was unaware or had completely forgotten that Chima had a Bat tribe."
Strange looking Batman....

It is quite possible they survived into the future though. The "mice" of Fabuland may be their wingless descendants, bred to be completely compliant, so Cathy Cat can catch them for kitty confections.
Man-Bat had, um, a transformation.
Bat strike!
Bam! Kapow! Thud!
Like apparently 90% of the people commenting I absolutely thought this was a Batman set before I realised it was Chima. Can you blame me though, that moody git gets everywhere!
@PurpleDave: Ah...so it's a 'Grundy thing'...even though we have yet to get a figure him too...:|
KRUSTY BAT UNFAIR!
The cheapest set with a bat tribe figure, believe it or not

Sort of like Wolverine. To quote TFWiki: "He's the best there is at what he does, and what he does is make gratuitous guest appearances." And yes, *of course* there's a TFWiki Wolverine page: https://tfwiki.net/wiki/Wolverine_(Marvel)
can someone tell me what he's striking

The bat, obviously.
Bat-themed heroes… or villains?
