Something cool I found out about the monocle in Penguin's eye isn't even a monocle at all. When Penguin was (pretending to be) a reformed citizen, he owned the Iceberg Lounge. He cheated at gambling whenever someone might have beaten him. On an unrelated note, that's why Victor Zsasz is a serial killer. Someone called Penguin out on it so Oswald tortured him. His friend in retaliation, broke the bottom of his bottle and thrust it into his eye! Penguin than killed both of them and tried to remove it through surgery, but the surgeons said if the tried to he might die. So penguin ended up liking how it looked like he always has a monocle on.

I know this is probably like the 90th comment you've had about this, but Penguin's umbrella in the Arkham series IS a gun! He uses it to kill one of the cops in the Gladiator pit, and later one of the surviving members toys around with it.

Believe it or not, no one else has pointed that out. I could have clarified better that the umbrella doesn't look like a gun (like the Marvel Legends White Rabbit, for instance). Good catch!

There must be a variant because the only one I've seen is like completely grey, even in his face. Thought that looked strange, so I'm glad there's a more natural version out there for me to hunt down.

Penguin is actually my favorite from that wave, I can’t stop raven about him. Anyone who didn’t like the figure is quackers. I really have no egrets about getting him.

@@5POAFigureReviews I’m glad you know that toucan play the pun game, Jason. Well, if you had consulted me, I would have sent you a huge bill. But, really, I’m surprised that you didn’t mention that he is a criminal that is often is Robin banks, that joke works on many levels. Though overall, it is a great review, and a great figure. Your videos are enjoyable, something for you to be puffin up about. 😉

Penguin huh, he's an amazing figure but I never expected that he'd be number 1. I like him as my #5. The Arkham City Riddler that just went up for pre order looks amazing. I'm super excited for it.
