Distant Thunder studios would like you to see the Teen Titans….as you’ve never seen them before!

The Batcave has served as the base of operations for one man’s war on crime for many years.  It’s been referred to as a sanctuary, a fortress, and a refuge.

But tonight, it is the scene of a crime

Robin, second to be known as the Boy Wonder, returns to the cave to find a faithful friend unconscious, and a mentor missing.

The Dark Knight has been, at the very least, abducted. At most…is not something Robin is prepared for.  The list of foes capable of this crime is a short one, but very formidable.  He’s going to need help.

Robin features 28 points of articulation, and comes with birdarang and staff.

The first ally is an obvious one.  Nightwing has grown into his own man now, a leader and a hero all his own.  He tries to relieve Robin’s fears, though his own boil beneath.  They need to consult another of their team before doing anything irrational.

Not far across town, Batgirl has carved her way though the ranks of yet another member of Gotham’s underworld.

Together, they come up with a list of suspects, with none other than Ra’s Al Ghul topping the list.  But a team as powerful as this one knows to take on the Demon’s Head without the Dark Knight is suicide, and with his life possibly at stake, they can take no chances.

But who do they turn to? The core members of the Justice League off-world, and they can’t enlist the reserves without compromising Batman’s secret identity.  So, they need a small but powerful group of heroes they can trust.  They need family.

Nightwing has an idea…

Nightwing features 34 points of articulation, nunchuks, and batarangs.

Batgirl features a cloth cape, 26 points of articulation, and batarangs.

He calls on the Titans.

As their second in command, Cyborg too has grown into his own man. He has modified his tech with the newest and best of everything.  The team’s resident powerhouse, Cyborg still fights to prove he is still more man than machine. Beast Boy as grown up some as well, but his greatest asset is still his youthful imagination, giving him the ability to become any animal he can think of.

Cyborg features 30 points of articulation, interchangeable arm cannon, rocket launcher, and comes with Beast Boy as a monkey figure.

As if this isn’t enough, Starfire adds her power of flight, super-strength, and energy blasts.  Although alien in origin, she has grown past some of her teenage awkwardness, as her teamates have.  There seems to be a budding romance between her and Nightwing, but she worries he may be going back toward his first crush, Batgirl.

 Raven may one day be the most powerful sorceress on earth.  She worries about he power getting the best of her, but with time has come confidence, and now the unsure, distant girl is transforming into a strong, sure member of the Titan family.

Starfire features 24 points of articulation and starbolt attachments

Raven features 24 points of articulation, removable cloak, and energy attachments.

Combining the Batcave’s computer and Cyborg’s tech, the Titans are able to unscramble the signal coming from one of Batman’s homing beacons and lock in on it.  If there’s one thing the Titans know, however…

..it’s that things are never this easy.
