REVIEW:
After a hiatus that began last Decmeber, The Batman returns with new episodes. Well, three this month with the last two airing later. "Cash for Toys" introduces a new characer that had a creepy look to him and was considered to be based or ripped off from Toyman from the Superman series.
This is Toymaker's first appearence. For his first episode, he's actually good. The character has motivation against Bruce Wayne. This makes him the second villian for Bruce Wayne, the first being Penguin.
For this story, it made sense. It wasn't something for kids since the villian's weapons for toys like some appeared to be based on Pokemon. Bruce goes against the toy company Toymaker created because the toys were too dangerous. So he goes after Bruce because he lost everything. That's good.
Cash returns in this episode. I heard that people like him, but that ain't the case for me. Sure his one-liners were funny, well some. And his character is fitting for Bruce's Wayne's "persona", but I don't really care for him.
Speaking of which, I would understand that Gordon hired Cash to guard Wayne because for the most part he and what people think of Bruce (mentioned in "The Big Heat" and what he was in "A Dark Knight to Remember) make both on the saem boy since both are "partyboys". But why him? I would rather have Yin instead of him. When will she come back?
Overall, a story that made sense, a new villian with no problems, but with a return of a character that, for me, don't care about: it still wasn't bad at all.
RATING: 7.5/10
You don't get it, boy... this isn't a mudhole... it's an operating table.
(crack!)

The Toymaker?
Little robots, giant tops after Wayne? Throw in Cash Tankerson as Bruce's bodyguard and you've got an episode that was pretty silly. However, I've waited so long for a new episode I'm going to give it a 7.7/10....even though it may not deserve it.

I think Laughing Cats was better (despite having the overused JOker)
This episode was solid, nothing in particular to complain about, but to me it was only just ok. Toymaker wasn't bad, wasn't annoying, but wasn't likeable either, he was sort of like Cluemaster, both of which I doubt we'll see ever again.
Cash Tankerson, he was kinda cool to see again but didn't he stop being a cop after his last appearance? It makes more sense to have someone like him in this story, they needed someone annoying who would try to keep Bruce in his sights at all time, if it was Yin she would've let him do whatever he wanted. (but still waiting to see her again)
Patrick Warburton's voice work is top notch as usual, even though he's been miling that same voice for years.
I'd say 6/10, just average, bonus points for Cash Tankerson and the loveable Patrick Warburton.
The robotic kitty was cool.

the animation in this episode was SOOO good. it was crazy. it seemed better than anime. i was so impressed; lol. the visuals in this episode were amazing. watching batman chase toymaker over rooftops and around buildings was so cool to see. everything moved so fluently. i give this episode 10/10. for me, TB is all about action/animation, not the story. so with that, the action was great and the animation was perfect.
compared to other shows; i think TB has the greatest animation yet. it tops some anime even.
