>>11041347Superman vs The Mumps
>>11041347Stop spamming the board. The last thread is literally still on the first page.
I am about to cancel some Starfires on Amazon
Wake me up when we have pictures of the kilmer mobile
>>11041347So it was you all along, DCGenOP
Some megafigs are so underwhelming i dont get how people justify 25 bucks for them, let alone 40 or more. It seems like the bigger the figure, the less effort they put into making sure it can pull off posing. I guess the main thing you're paying for is just a larger steel mold.
>>11042410McFarts have always been more about the sculpt.
>>11042440Does the sculpt really matter when the the figure has so many flaws that you can see while looking at the sculpt? Trunks are neon green and look silly, the top of the boots are unpainted, the clear torn material on his arms are unpainted as well and the diaper color doesn't match the leg trunks color. The washers over the arms stick out like a sore thumb too. Sure, the rest of the sculpt is pretty nice but sculpt really needs paint as well and too much was overlooked on this example.
>>11042442To be fair, it's a two pack. They always cheap out on those. Most people who are into McFarts nowadays know that paint is lacking and customize them. Even a simple wash can do wonders.
>>11042450I have customized a few that i had to have but mostly i just refrain from buying the ones that are incomplete
>>11042450>>11042466Customizing and destroying toys is WRONG
>>11042552if they were the same thing why the "and"? Also I'd say only the toys that are actually rare is questionable.
if i got 2 of this goober could i make 1 with symmetrical normal arms?
>>11042877No
>>11042912well fuckguess i'll hang onto essentials brainiac
>>11042877If you're asking if you can take one normal arm, put it on the other backwards then yes..
>>11042942Wrong. The thumbs will be in the wrong place.
>>11041347If I’m looking to get a 6” Poison Ivy figure, is my only choice really the Mafex? I don’t collect much DC, but I always liked Ivy.
Hmmm...
>>11043271Can’t quite put my finger on it…
>>11043271Geralt with orange painted pants, and is that Drew McIntyre's entrance coat? Is that still regular Geralt's head but painted head and 'mask'? Tbf a lot of effort was put in for this return. They even swapped out the card for something.
>>11043252ill wait for revoltech, the catwoman they did is like 10/10mafex can only make males look good but the females are just plaine
>>11043309>AY Poison IvyI suppose you’re probably right, I forgot they were continuing their DC line with Supergirl and Catwoman. Waiting for Ivy seems like a good idea.
>>11043312It's gonna be all animed up though.
>>11043309I don't see why AY would make a Poison Ivy, she isn't exactly a dynamic poser
>>11043271It makes 0 sense for whoever did this to put in this much effort for 20 bucks when the employees probably wouldn't even look at it anyway. Whoever did it has some kind of mental illness or is doing it to have a giggle.
>>11043397dude just make her with vines n shiet
>>11042405Nah he just swiped the photo from a different anon, like they did with those Cursed Nailed McFarts and Total Justice Kon-El's. Some anon (anons?) traveled to the filming of the new movie and posted a bunch of 'filming on the streets of Cleveland' shots on /co (and probably did as well on /tv and other boards).
>>11043271mmmm... cheeto legs
>>11043271pffft they even put a card in
>>11043448Yeah there were a lot of people with cameras. Did they have an official meetup?
>>11043271Probably a custom job before the official animal man release
>>11044286garbage
>>11043309even the males are overrated. most have the same looking sculpt and articulation (still looking very unnatural and awkward in dynamic poses). they often just look like mcfarlane figures as well. i am happy with their dark knight returns stuff, that was actually very original and good design and on the triumphant batman was some of their best paintwork. they really should be in the 30-40 dollar price range though. revoltech always deliver and i'd be curious to see maybe sentinel have a go at some dc characters. their spiderman is great.
>>11043532It's not hard to find out when stuff is being filmed. There are even people that try to or actually do make a living taking pictures since there is always some site that will pay, at least a minimal fee, to repost your photo of say XYZ on the ### set of BLANK show or movie. There are probably people who know each other in the mid west, because they met at one of those Metropolis (IL? or whereever it is) annual meetups, or local area cons, or even LCSs, toy fairs, etc. - I wouldn't think it's any kind of "official" - you're probably talking 2-8 people max.

bumped into my shelf while vacuuming and everything fellRIP Hush Batman, Deadman, and first Azrael
>>11044286Is the back painted now?
>>11044521McFarlane's can't survive a shelf dive? Damn. Even my Mafex's have been ok for the most part. Worst thing that happened to me was Mafex Spider-Man's leg popped off and just needed to be popped back on the ball joint.
Entertainment Urth couldn't sell all their Batman and Joker sketch editions at 30 bucks so BBTS got some and is trying to sell them for 40 for some reason. There's something hilarious about that.
>You see Hush selling online at Target for 12 bucks for like a year, it still remains there and never sells out and you figure it'll have to go lower before they can sell it.>When you see Target up the price to over 18 after that time.

^ I don't really get the appeal of these for adults and I had toys like them in the 1980s.

>>11044609They're cheap figures I can play with at my desk and buy for my kids. Articulation is overrated.

toddler shit
>>11044624>That drooping Steel hammerCan someone explain given the line is 12+ why they don't make the hands semi-soft plastic and make the weapons hard plastic?
>>11044637They're all toys dude
>>11044602>>11044604>>11044605>>11044605They're all currently on the Walmart app along with the waves Batman and Superman. Not available yet but pre order later this week.
>>11044500Would’ve been cool to meet up with some other nerds.>>11044638I’d love to know what happened with that Steel figure. It was delayed for like a year and a half compared to other figures it was announced with, there’s that weird blue and grey marbling everyone hates, and the hammer is softer than spaghetti. I picked up an Aquaman and was expecting the trident to start sagging but it’s fine, there’s something especially shitty about that hammer.>>11044624That Cyborg Superman is such a disappointment. I knew it would look cheap but I was hoping it could at least be repainted to look like Hank.Why is he even still dressed like Superman? The only reason he did that was to trick people into trusting him until he blew up Coast City. Is he dressing up like Superman, curling his hair into an S, checking Superman twitters for pictures of his new costume so he knows if he should be wearing red trunks today or not? So fucking dumb on every level
>>11044647>Jarrett
>>11044647>Would’ve been cool to meet up with some other nerdsI legit would be smash your ass for hush spamming
>>11044647The Winter Showcase pic didnt have the blue marbling. Some anon said it is baked into the plastic so it cannot be removed, that its not external paint per se but maybe two plastics mixed together or paint mixed in with the plastic (I would think this couldn't be done so probably 2 plastic colors).This experiment may be why it was delayed, in an attempt to save on paint apps now and in the future. And the experiment failed by all accounts, at least externally. Maybe internally Mcfarlane toys thinks it succeeded and will use it again. But again this is all speculation but is the best explanation I can think of for the delay.
>>11044645So walmart only lets people preorder mcfarlanes through their "APP" and not the actual website? Shit phones really did destroy the internet
>>11044618Hm. Don't recognize his pieces from anywhere
>>11044602Yes.>>11044607Really neat>>11044610Manhunter has got me excited.
>>11044699batwing
>>11044741Might as well consider it new because nobody bought this shit
>>11044741>>11044746Interesting, such an overlooked figure I never even noticed it
>>11044605>>11044632Finally, a new Guy Gardner figure.
>>11044746They fly now?!
Thoughts?
>>11044951They can fly, jump, swing, and god decided to put them in baltimore?
>>11044985Looks great, love the vibrant colors.
>>11042410I remember once complaining about unnecessary textures on McFarlane figs, and someone told me to " go back to ML".Looking at this Doomsday, i stand by my complaint. Maybe you'll say, " this isn't first appearance doomsday, its the Rocafort Reign of Doomsday design" and that excuses the textured skin, fair enough, but that design is garbage ( no criticism on Rocaforts art but its still a shit design)And then when McFarlane does non textured figures they look like shit too. I think Todd has lost whatever eye he had for making figures, because his shit is so lame these days.Heres hoping Mafex does a good 90s DoS Doomsday, and would love to see a battle damged Superman from them as well.
>>11044985>>11045006The shield is all fucked up. I don't care that it's from Kingdom Come, it looks like a no diving sign not an S.
>white accent Superman talks like THIS>black accent Superman talks like THIS
>>11044985Looks like pajamas
>>11045053Its not an S, supposed to be an alien symbol.
>>11045143On my planet it stands for "James Gunn is a pedophile"
>>11044985why have the underwear if the suit is baggy? The whole point of it is to hide the crotch from the tights
>>11045143Fuck you
>>11045076yo todd open it pleasealso FYJGJGJHCGHFHGDF
>>11045143And this demon is supposed to be a giant humanoid bat with a bat tattoo in his chest. Don't know, maybe it's his mom.
>>11045076im confused is this like a cell shaded deal or a black and white only set
>>11044985I've never liked the panties and this has not swayed my opinion.
>>11045238They fucked up hiring a jew
>>11044985Why does he have those Marvel seams everywhere? I always hated how Captain America, Thor, and Spider-Man all have that same techy nonsense all over their suits.
>>11045293
>>11045296
>>11045293uhhh.. they coulda just taken the flash movie one or even shit. idk
>>11045303It's beast Kingdom bro
>>11045304it sure is
>>11045293For me it's year one
>>11045293>>11045296>>11045300garbage
>>11045320This is sooooooo fucking tight. Gets muh bunghole all moist.
>>11045321Why are you like this?
>>11045325you honestly think that shit looks good?
>>11045330I think it's a repaint of 89. It's not terrible in universe which it is.
>>11045293auuuueeehhhggggggggg
>>11045293>no blue crotch
>>11044985I still really dislike it. BUT it's not as horrible as that first f*cking OFFICIAL first look was.The leaks makes it look like it would've been great for a 2015 CW show, but not for a film.
>>11044985Any chance they’ll do a Sonic and fix the shield in post?
>>11045293When even major high end companies have to reuse molds, you know the figure industry is hurting
>>11045209Don't retarded, the symbol was taken from his space ship, fuck his parents wear the same symbol on flashbacks, do you even read or watch the fucking source material?
>>11045290This goes way back, even Power Rangers The Movie had these buzy designs, for some reason movie producers/designers hate plain textures, even Transformers had these techy bullshit, maybe they think simplicity make things look cheap.
>>11045334>>11045380It's literally just a repaint
>>11045387Repaints=reusing molds.
>>11045390Dude it's just a repaint of the og suit
>>11045385I don’t give a fuck if the faggots and retards at DC are saying dickbutt or no diving signs are the official El family crest these days, it should look like an S.
>>11045293>>11045296>>11045300>finally some Batman Returns figure>beast kingdom>weird colors
>>11045392>Dude it's just a reuse of the og suit mold
>>11045396>ogYes as in the original version of it you fucking sperg
>>11045386But why is it always the same pattern of straight lines? I have no love for Snyder but the unnecessary lines on that Superman suit were at least curved so they matched the S. I figured with Marvel it was because they were using the same designers from movie to movie or it was some kind of ugly in-house style.
>>11045407California design faggots
How does mafex make money with their movie figures anyway? It seems folly to release a figure for a movie that failed
>>11045387a bad one, i really wanted the blue and grey flash guy. i know the movie sucks shit and the suit isnt for every one but the suit literally ecists and they didnt even try to do it
>>11045426Just because you didn’t like Black Adam doesn’t mean everyone hated it. Some anons here were really excited for a Rock vs Superman movie.
>>11045407Pedowood only hire the same people from the same background with the same education and ideas, and these talentless hacks all want to outperform but they are bounded by fear, lack of criativity and their bosses saying "do whatever Popular Thing is doing, just a little bit different". That's why every superhero costume in the last 15 years have those same basketball textures.
>>11045434>the movie sucks shitIt's not a bad movie it just breaks from typical superhero plots.
>>11045293>>11045296>>11045300>Beast KingdomThey have the most schizo scale in the game
>>11045496
>>11045472>Rock vs Superman moviecould you imagine the attitude era with george clooneys batman going against stone cold and dean cains superman against the rock?
>>11045496>It's not a bad dinner, it's just made of shit which breaks from your typical foods.
>>11043252Nah they made a bunch over the years not sure if any of them were good though the 2018 DC multiverse one is considered bad I think but it’s the closest thing to an animated series Ivy that I could get in six inch scale so I think it’s alright
>>11045497if only they knew how to use thinner cloths. everything is so poofy from what ive seen doesnt match their scale at all . its more baffeling since they actually have some decently sized figures
>>11045472I liked the movie, anon, but its clear it failed
>>11045556No it didn’t. It made millions of dollars and everyone who saw it had fun.

>>11045426I need someone to get him and surround him with super pochaco figures
Whats your plan to get sportsmaster, manhunter and/or Reverse Flash? Check stores daily?
>>11046259I'm not wasting gas. If I can't easily purchase it online I won't be getting them.
>>11046302I had a rare chance to drive a few towns away today to actually go to a target. I got myself all hyped but this morning i just said nah. Extra gas, extra drive time on my weekly errands just for a chance at finding a waverider or someone else? Nah nah nah, just too much of a gamble and toys just arent that important. Now, if i were guaranteed a manhunter id consider it. I just dont like the idea of wasting my time and money just to waste my money. I did get a superfriends black adam for $2 today that was cool.
>just found out about the Batman and Spawn 2-packhow is it? Is the Spawn any good, or would I be better off with a different release of each?
>>11046403The Spawn's cape hinders his arms but the cape is one of the most Spawny capes of all time on a modern mcfarlane non-statue. I still think the MK11 Spawn body is better though but that release isnt easy to come by in red anymore.The Batman isn't that great a body buck (3 Jokers buck) and the colors aren't great for Batman either (a bit too greenish I would say). Head sculpt is kind of meh. It really depends on your preferences and ideal look for Batman as well. If you can get it for cheap (low to mid 30s?) it might hold you off.
>>11046405And that's low to mid 30s for the entire 2 pack if that wasn't clear.
>>11042450I like him... he is flawed sure, but he has a presence.
>>11046432Why does everybody want to be this character so badly?
>>11046522Doomsday?
>>11046522Because Doomsday strong, not weak fat man. Doomsday!

>>11046595Anyone who buys this is feeding Todd's wallet.
>>11044985It will make some ugly toys, since this is the toy board. The lines are unnecessary, saying it looks like PJs is actually a fair and accurate assessment. I do like the colors, but the fit is all wrong, and the belt looks like something Todd McFarlane would slap on a Gold Label exclusive and it looks like Todd comparable levels of cheap plastic.>>11045378It would be expensive and likely result in Mustachegate II >>11045290Director's approve suits. When you see the test for Nic Cage with that Superman suit, Burton is all over those when it's just a costume fitting. So it could possibly be that this is what Gunn is used to from MCU crap, although only a few of the Peacemaker suits were that crappy and I assumed that was always for the LOLZ.>>11046259>>11046302Not wasting gas.Not wasting time on line.Not buying any of those.>>11046595>desaturated pvcsad>>11045426>for a movie that failedBlue Beetle failed harder and there are people who picked up some of those toys because they were fans of the character.
>>11046615Kryptonite version is the same mold as that one (and thus doesn't move insanely well or anything) with a new head that is a bit more limited due to the dreadlocks. But it has a darker color on the pants that looks less "toyish". They actually painted the torn suit on the arms and the top of the boots this time. However, I wouldn't really get both unless you're a completionist. I just got the Kryptonite one because it was $27 at Target and I passed on the pictured one due to the flaws and it being in a 2 pack with a figure I didn't want.
>>11046774>this is what Gunn is used to from MCU crapMr Terrific is pretty much 1:1 from the comic while the Engineer looks like some CW villain. I will wait until the trailer, but I hope that the final suit looks good enough to make a decent toy. Don't know about those lines tho, I think they will look like shit in any media.

>>11047145Koto can pay their sculptors more - plus their artists not only get better salaries, they also get credit for their work. >>11047160I own the GL one, they look bigger than your standard DCMV. Bigger than DC Direct since for a while I had an entire shelf that was just Lanterns with it and most of the GLs I own are DCDs.
>>11047145So go buy the old DC Collectibles figures that were just statues with their arms at their sides, you stupid tasteless fuck
>>11047033Because if you stretch that kind of plastic too much you run into...let's say...tearing issues. Especially as the figure gets older. Hard plastic diapers with cavernous crotches are superior as they will last forever.

Marvel Legends deluxe Odin costs $20 more than a DCMV megafig. In what world does this make sense?
>>11048873In the world where Didney is an entertainment monopoly and Warner is barely even treading water keeping its properties relevant.
>>11048885Marvel is pretty much circling the drain at this point though
>>11048902The media is on a down turn for sure but the general public conscious still thinks of the MCU fondly, they just add the asterisk "it was good until phase 5" or whenever, but they think of it as being good in recent memory. Still plenty of nostalgia to fuel merch purchases at premium prices.With DC, shit like Kill The Justice League dominates the conversation. Everyone's breathlessly waiting to see if Gunn fucks up Superman.
>>11048931I have to admit that pajamas costume wasn't a great start. I can't imagine it looking good as a mcfarlane figure either
>>11048873What Megafig? Did you cherrypick a cheap one or something? Cause I understood those to be around $50 on average, which is the same price as Odin.
>>11049234You understood wrong. Mega figs have always been $40Rereleased mega figs with glow paint run up to $50 tho

>>11049291Not multiverse
>>11048541NAH, I ended up with this (and a Spawn) I never wanted on a used lot of 5 Toddsters, where I wanted the Rebirth Supes and the Blue Wally and was purchasing the Rebirth Bats for someone else's teenager, and my out of pocket, even with the shipping on EB was about $10 per toy. So I wanted to flip Lex and I did flip the Spawn to make my personal cost $0.00. That was a photo to sell Lex. I hate those one photo or two photo listings, adn especially the ones that show the toys on a flat level or leaning.I want to show the toys I flip/dump being able to stand by themselves in loads of different postions, plus always like to show various articulations, and all sorts of views - it doesn't cost me anything.And I don't get pestered with 'how are the joints, yadda.' Plus it's gotten me return customers when I am unloading crap.>>11049234I've never seen a McFarlane Mega at Game Stop or Target for more than $39. And I've even seen them for LESS, when they are discounted/clearance. The only place I see DC Megafig get upcharged is EB and Crapazon.
>>11049380Stop being Canadian
>>11048885>>11048931Disney is more than Marble.WB is more than DC, son. At the moment, WB is the most successful of the legacy movie studios this year.
>Went looking for a Earth-2 Superman non platinum version>Find the Platinum versionI guess I have 2 of them now, maybe I cam trade it for the regular one
This Freeze is pretty cool. What Batman would go best with it?
>>11049247That figure is ugly as sin. The white exposes the buck's flaws even more horrifically. Look at how bad the elbows are in the front, and the caps on the pseudo-butterflies are just hideous and warp the intended anatomy of the figure.
>>11049291DCMV megafigs are 40. Spawn megafigs are 50, although those may be over for all we know.
>>11049386This, todd stop being one years ago.
>>11049564Black knightfall obviously
>>11049564>>11049674
>>11049674Hmm, too Comicy, if that makes any sense, doesn't fit in with Freezes greeblys. But I found one that works in my opinion.>>11049680Oh, of course. I thought the colors were familiar.
>>11049386>>11049665[spoiler]Not A Canadian, boys and girls.[/spoiler]
>>11049247In all seriousness, what the fuck is up with McFarlane being COMPLETELY wrong with proportions to the point where almost every figure looks goofy at the moment? Doesn't Todd take a single look at the figures and just give that feedback to his employees? It's literally simple to fix
>>11049985Better than marvel hasbroke crap>>11049874Fuck off cross boarder Reddit FAGGOT
>>11049988>Better than marvel hasbroke crapthis is not an answer and just makes you look retarded
>>11048507all of them suck dick. Top is the only one some redeaming values (pointy hands / huge cape) but everything else in his show is just bland. The fact youtubers are trying to make all 3 of these shows seem like hidden gems is hilarious
>>11049985Not memeing, what do you think is wrong with it? I did a few years of anatomical training in college and it looks fine to me, at least as far as exaggerated superhero anatomy goes. His legs are a tad long and head a bit small, but that's par for the course for a superhero's physique, and everything else seems as it should be.Do you mean canonical character accurate bodies or something? Cause I can't speak on that, I have no idea who this is.
>>11049985I would speculate that Todd doesn't really look at the figures anymore until he does a promo video for them and by then its too late to change anything
>>11044985i (male) would like to have sex with him, in costume
>>11050291>Fuck JewsStop being antisemitic anon
>>11049985Sculpts are usually much better proportionate than final figure.The problem starts when they add articulation. And then it can get much worse when it goes through factory. No one really knows how the final figure will look like until factory delivers the first lot. By then it's usually too late to fix.It's only when they're terrible and unreleasable that they cancel the order and delay the figure. That's what probably happened with Cyborg Superman for example.
>>11049247Clearance bin trash
Cyborg Superman https://youtu.be/tsjWVny8pCY?si=PEmXvhhdizVQ4c1FSportsmasterhttps://youtu.be/t2lc-EIYENc?si=pXDl-_vkmOT2PHVK
after 3 months of delays my jla aquaman preorder was canceled today by targeti went full karen mode to them and they refunded me $15. I basically got superman/batman/john stewart for less than $50yup, looks like i'll be getting the aquaman fig off amazon for basically $10 now
>>11050338Stop pre ordering on target. GameStop is the best when it comes to mcfarlane preorders.
Nice exclusive
>>11050465Also kind of doubles as a Superman One Million.
>>11050342Gamestop is the worst actually. Because you need to preorder tons of things with the same release day to get free shipping
>>11050342fuck gamestopand all in all like i said I got three $25 figs for under $50 so i ended up saving a ton.
>>11050517I used them as a last resort to get Darkseid since he sold out everywhere before I could get him. I'll eat the shipping. They emailed me the other day saying he would be shipping soon.
I think they've hit price sensitivity with the batmobiles with $80 when the Batman TAS batmobile can't completely sell out.
>>11049988>Canadian>cross boarder>Reddit
>>11050517Correct if you want free shipping.Also, to hit free shipping, you need to hit $79 in merch as well.Only worthwhile if you want to do this: >>11050545 And I only do this when I just want one thing (for example, I bought the Batman '66 version of Superman from a store, paying retail plus the same taxes I would have paid McFarlane's Toy Store, or Amazon or Game Stop), but not having to worry about trying to buy a bunch of other crap to get free shipping, or to pay the shipping.I'll admit I missed out on the Blue Beetle Super Powers and now have to get him from Amazon or not at all. Or pay scalper pricing on EB.
>>11050511not with the Eagle
Picked up the New52 Hal. All of my Justice League members have shiny metal somewhere so it had to be this guy. Surprised at how well he scales with McFarlanes figures. >>11050465That’s kinda cool.>>11050338Sorry, man. I think that Aquaman is still pretty cheap on Amazon.
>>11050595Hehehe YES YES!!!!!!!! Hopes this one sits on clearance like the batcycle.
>>11050626>Jarrett
>>11050028You just mentioned it yourself, the legs and the heads are completely wrong. And I have to disagree that it's the standard of superhero bodies when they are drawn quite normally in 98% of comics. A small head and long legs already make a figure 50% worse but I wouldn't mind it as much if it weren't a simple fix in every caseAlso not talking about canonically accurate bodies, I'm talking about stilt-like legs for every second character that is currently coming out. It's visible all across the board>>11050277Could be true but even then, it only takes 5 minutes to notice it's an actual issue with multiple figures. Mistakes are normal but you should usually learn from them (side eyes) instead of having them become the norm
>>11050714>they are drawn quite normally in 98% of comicsLost all your credibility right there and proved you have no clue what you're talking about
>>11050626I like shiny toys, too
>>11050671>Jarrett Stalker has joined the chat
>>11050622It isn't like it's attached to his arm.
Should the Justice League let Phantom Lady or Power Girl join the team?
>>11050861>record scratch>yep, that's me.
>>11050861Which Batman is this? Looks nice.
>>11050906go back
>>11050924Black Knightfall Batman same as >>11049721
>>11050861Power Girl has the better power set but they already have a red, white, and blue chick
>>11050956Close, it is 3 Jokers Batman with the Trunks of Hush.Cut off the freezie, attached effects are so lame
>>11050924Knightfall Batman with some bits on the belt repainted gold.>>11050906Thinking about repainting his eyes but I love how goofy it is. He’s also really big at full standing height, like he’s bred from the same stock as my Diamond Select Thor.
>>11050974He looks really cool, like a Mignola Batman. When Todd exhausts iconic versions and Elseworlds I hope he goes back to artist inspired figures.
>>11050626I have that one to, I inadvertently won him in a lot. Not sure if I am going to keep him as I have an excess of Hals right now, and I'd rather have a Guy (but one with a modern hair cut) or even a Jess or a modern female).>>11050817If it's not, that would work, then, yes. I'll wait to see what the rest of the promo shots look like.>>11050960>>11050861Still, I'd pick PG. A Kara would be another red blue chick.
>>11050976>Jarrett is a catfag
is Batman Hush (black and grey) a decent figure?i want to buy him and he looks pretty good but the biggest issue is how damn big he is. is he really that bad or does he scale fine with most mcfarlanes?
>>11051058any batman using the 3 jokers body is too big
>>11050595A lot of people are still probably sitting on the old one. This is like the 3rd re-release? The thing is also a huge space hog
>>11050595>>11051168mine is a foot away from me as i type. this is at least the third, maybe fourth release? it's pretty cool but if i didn't have the original figures to go with it idk if i'd want it based on the recent releases.
>>11045407Jim Lee fucking loved putting straight lines on people for the New 52. I imagine that has something to do with it.
>>11051168>>11051170Weren’t there issues with the canopy not matching the rest of the car? For $80 and the fact it takes up as much space as a child laying down on a shelf I wouldn’t want to roll the dice on Todd’s quality control.
>>11051219>issues with the canopy thats the flash/89 batmobile
>>11051222Doesn't one of them have a fucked up canopy and the other has weird tiger stripes on the sides from the casting process? If I'm investing in something that forces itself to be a large, prominent part of a display I'm not going to gamble on everything being perfect when historically he hasn't been able to make a Batmobile that doesn't have problems.Still have my Keaton and TAS Batmobiles from when I was a kid and see no reason to upgrade them.
>>11051241You have to know when to buy a line. It's typically in the first couple years of a line that the most money goes in to making a good first impression by the standards of the time. My Death Metal Batcycle is perfect for example. But then the line goes downhill with either profit taking or the company finding out the expenses are unsustainable and cutting corners to try to recover costs. Right now Todd is in the latter half with the DC license. Either things will even out a bit in a few years as he finds a point of sustainability or he will drop/lose the license
>>11049247Ill take it. I thought the speed force was a neat idea. >>11049250I wish these would stop. It looks better than that robin but thats not saying much.
>>11051289>good first impression>anything Death MetalOof. Oof.
>>11051058I got it for $20 and am thoroughly satisfied with it. He's definitely big, but I have 5 Batman figures from Todd and they are all different sizes so who the fuck knows anymore.
>>11051058>>11051075He's fine as long as he's paired with a Superman that isn't super small. Him being bigger than most of the justice league is cannon.
>>11051357Forgot pic
>>11051058Best mcfarlane Batman is a BvS Arkham kit bash
>>11051359gross
speaking of Hush, are there any other black fists that will swap onto that figure? I cut the Kryptonite ring off but it looks kinda ass.thought about buying the first appearance Batman and painting those fists black, but if there's a cheaper/lazier option out there I'd love to hear it.
>>11051363Pairs best with earth 2
>>11051365BvS Might need to swap the wrists too
Can the soft goods cape from Detective Comics #27 be removed and swapped to another figure?
>>11051020
>>11051376Yes
When you're ready:>>11051401>>11051401>>11051401
>>11051377I want a Streaky
>>11051402I'll make the real thread in a minute
>>11051402Why do you make the new thread when the old one is still on page one?
>>11051330
>>11051406I own two, actually. Both were accessories.I want that wolf looking white dog that some anon posted here, maybe two or so months ago, to go with his (I think) New 52 Superman. IIRC, he got it at Hobby Lobby or some other places, it's not a DC accessory. I think that's your best bet than waiting on Todd to get his shit together.
>>11050465There’s something about mcfarlane proportions that are so weird. like the thighs are too small or his waist is too low or like his pecs are alright but the rib cage is too big like that picture of surfing Elon musk? it’s so specifically weird
>>11051382nice! thanks!
>>11051441>wolf looking white dogit wasn't a Hasbro GI Joe Timber, was it?
>>11051441>>11051467Yes
>>11051449>fucked up torso>fucked up balljoints at the arms and legs>fucked up big ass head>fucked up thin thighsI genuinely have no idea how someone defends this.
>>11051467>>11051492AH THANK YOU!I've been fucking trying to figure out what that was since I forgot to bookmark or save the photo!Now to go chase it down!
>>11051624No problem bro
>>11051449It's partially his head sculpts (particularly with the Supermen but definitely with a few other characters) but it has a lot to do with his torsos and the neck pegs he uses with whatever he does as a head sculpt, good or bad.Thighs/legs are often fine, as arm arms/forearms. It's really the torso design, particularly the choice to do the same thing to create ab-crunch, and the line wide choice of a diaper, that can and often does create these issues.>proportions>weirdIt's that stuff that causes this response.And when he does go for a slimmer torso, THAT's when you get issues with the legs and the arms looking proportionally too long.But yes -
>>11051624it's a 2-pack with Snake Eyes and Timber, GI Joe Classified Series.I've seen it as low as $13 on Walmart and $20-something on Amazon. USD
