Knight Models Release The Lantern Corp & Two-Face’s Gang
November 26, 2020 by brennon
There is a bevvy of new releases from Knight Models for both their Batman Miniatures Game and also the DC Universe Miniatures Game too. We start with Batman and his villainous foes because Batman is way cooler than the rest of DC...right?
Two-Face // Knight Models
A new miniature is on the warpath with Two-Face looking to take control of the streets of Gotham. Two-Face has always been a fascinating villain, especially because of his more valiant beginnings. As a miniature goes, it's nice and dynamic but it does seem like a lot of people are going to be taking him off the massive base.
If you want to support Two-Face in his endeavours then you have some options with his Gangsters...

...and also a full bundle of Two-Face goodness which offers up a lot more characters and options for making a gang based around him and his schemes.
Two-Face Gang // Knight Models
The above set is cool because it comes with a set of Gangsters alongside Suger & Spice and also Hush who is another of the deadly enemies that Batman has had to face off against during his time in Gotham.
Capping things off for Batman we also have the Grim Knight version of him which is available as a Black Friday Exclusive.

Whilst the model is cool it really is everything I don't want in Batman. The whole point is that he doesn't kill so giving him guns and rocket launchers just don't gel well. I'm sure some people will enjoy this option which has been drawn from the DC Multiverse but for me...nah.
The Lantern Corp & Hal Jordan
As well as these Batman offerings we also have some miniatures for the wider world of DC too. First up we have Hal Jordan, the Green Lantern himself.

If you want to support Hal Jordan in your clashes against some of the big bads of the DC Universe then you can also pick up the Green Lantern Corp as well which comes packed with all manner of new characters.

Those are some sweet paint jobs. That Batman looks badass 🙂
That is very un-Batman-like Batman. Everyone knows that Batman doesn’t use guns. He doesn’t even like guns. Even Frank Miller knows that. And yet who ever sculpted that miniature doesn’t seem to know that simple fact about character. Then again it’s based on DCEU version so that’s on Zack Snyder trying to be edgy.
Others look really good and I love that they included Green Lantern Corp as while Hal Jordan or who ever is top human Green Lantern at that point is calls himself or herself Green Lantern they are still part of Green Lantern Corp.
I think that Is the point, everyone know that Batman doesn’t use guns so would the designers.
So why do it? At this point it’s your OC, Bat gun man, not batman.
I’ve read somewhere that on the odl Detective Cmoics Batman had a pistol or something, though I don’t know if that’s true.
And who knows might be a multiverse Batman. Thomas Wayne Batman used guns.
I do say that it’s a multiverse Batman heh – but yeah, not the kind of version of Batman I overly like.
It Is multiverse Batman so not a mistake of the designer not knowing Batman’s Backstory
Exactly, and not even the first one they’ve done. Flashpoint Batman and Nightmare Batman are both armed with guns. The purists will have to limit themselves to the other twenty or so versions KM have.
According to DC Database… The Grim Knight was an alternate version of Batman who started using guns, ever since shooting Joe Chill who murdered his parents. He was an enemy to Batman as he often allied himself with the Batman Who Laughs.
Interesting, didn’t know that Batman, though I din’t read anything about The Batman Who Laughs or dark Knight Metal.
As Brennon says it’s a Multiverse version of Batman, namely The Grim Knight from the Dark Nights Metal continuity.
While you may not have read the comic, neither have I, but a cursory internet search would have given you the information: https://dc.fandom.com/wiki/Bruce_Wayne_(Dark_Multiverse:_The_Grim_Knight)
It isn’t the core universe version of Bruce, which is why it doesn’t match such a depiction.
Thanks for the link.
I dind’t do a internet search because I thought it was a creation of Knight models and it wasn’t that important to me. Then tankkcommander mentioned The Grim Knight was from a comic and I just thought that was interesting. By the way I was the first that said it might be a multiverse version of the Bat 😉
The story of that Batman seems interesting, I just might need to read those Darl Knight Metall and The Batman Who Laughs books someday.
Two Face and his gang are awesome, the Green Latern Corps is nice too, teh gun toting Batman is also quite nice.
Wow two face….. awasome, silence is nice too
The gang have a spectacular sculpt but is too 30s epoque for me, i prefer the modern gotham
the 30’s vibe i like, it sort of makes sense to have a rival gang wearing a different outfit from the falcone crime family. Bring on the Yakuza…..
Is gotham, everything is fine… but a prefer modern tughs
Fab figures the Lantern Corp is an interesting group.
The second guy from the right in the Two Face gang… Saul Goodman?
A lot of hair for saul…XD
I absolutely love the green lantern range.
Knight models are some of the consistently best looking (although not always practical/durable for gaming) with some of the best paint job on their promo pieces.
Grabbed the Grim Knight and a few other bits that were on sale. These are going to be my first 3rd edition models though so I’ll need to use the conversion chart on their website to get my other stuff up to date. I wanted to grab a new rulebook but there didn’t seem to be one available aside from the download and I don’t know if there’s been a 3rd edition update for magic at all.
The physical book is only available on the Back to Gotham two player box unfortunately.
Magic and speedsters have not yet appeared in 3rd. It isn’t clear if they are coming later or have just been cut to differentiate BMG from the DCU game.
Oh I hope not, I have a Constantine mini I’m hoping to use properly in some games.
Was the Back to Gotham box a limited edition? I can’t see it on the KM website.
As far as I know it is a core product, might just be out of stock?
I also bought some of the exclusives, some Batamns (can’t have enough of those 😉 ) and the Arkham Knight and Penguin box.
I too noticd that the 2 player starter set is gone, same for all other german onlineshops I have checked.
Ans it’s completely gone from the KM store, stuff that is out of stock normally has a label “Temporarily out of Stock” or something like that.
Maybe we have to ask Knight Models if there will be a reprint.
wow knight models have outdone themselves once again the twoface crew and the green lanterns look amazing I hope they do red lanterns next for the DC game
