A Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker movie tie-in line of figures were produced which included several The New Batman Adventures figures as well as Batman Beyond Figures.

Batman and Robin Duo Force – 1997In his free time, Shane loves going for runs and playing with his 16-year-old beagle Butterscotch. Butters for short, she has been the greatest love of his and inspires him everyday, both creatively and emtionally. On top of that, he's now a huge collector. He loves Funko Pop, McFarlane Toys, and Neca's huge line of horror figures. In the last two years he has been going to a lot of conversations to buy an unhealthy amount of figures. This has also allowed him to meet some of his favorite filmmakers/actors like Mike Flanagan, Matthew Lillard, John Carpenter, Grace Caroline Curry, Steve Burns and Kathryn Newton. This collection, unlike many of the others, was well received and much raved about by Batman fans making the whole line highly collectible. After a mix of failed toy lines, Hasbro stepped into the picture and bought out Kenner. With that acquisition, they started their own series of Batman: The Animated Series action figures. Their first toy line for the franchise was called The New Batman Adventures. This line featured new sculpts based on the updated animated series from the WB network. It also included figures of Batman, Nightwing, and some Batman: The Animated Series villains. Notable in this run are the including of Mad Hatter and the Creeper!

Batman: The Animated Series was so well made that it won two Emmy awards. One was the writing of the "Heart Of Ice" episode that told the tragic story of Mr. Freeze and his frozen wife, Nora. Arnold Schwarzenegger played the villain in 1997s Batman and Robin, but his take on the character came off as comedic and the film was disappointing.

Batman Crime Squad collection without the terrorizing bad guys was a significant damper, particularly from the point of young collectors. The same year that Toy Biz won and lost the rights to produce DC Comics figures, Kenner regained the rights and produced a line of Batman movie figures. Released in 1990, these were the first DC Comics figures produced by Kenner in four years.
