Hi everyone, I hope you have a good thread.
Does it feel like a whole bunch of people just got into Mafex recently? Or am I imagining things
I was wondering where the mafex general went when I saw those AoA figures last night…>>11122182I’ve noticed it too, I think it’s due to an increased interest in X-Men lately by normies, first we had X-Men 97 and then Deadpool and Wolverine.
Also what’s up with the Hush Superman/TDKR Batman reissues? Nin Nin says the 31st of this month, but then I saw hobby genki yesterday had theirs up but it already said sold out.
>>11122192Nin nin and HG are resellers so they won't always get their stock at exactly the same time.
>>11122066The whole last batch of convention reveals were meh at best to me (I only really care about Marvel at this point so the Batman stuff was cool I guess). Gonna be a really dry 2025 MAFEX year for me.also AoA Wolverine has ML clown feet lol
When might mafex reissue the black and grey Hush batman again?
>>11123356My dad is Yoshi Mafex, I'll ask.
Mafex. How is it pronounced? What does Mafex mean... or rather what does Mafex stand for? Today you will learn.Japanese - MafexssuuMafex = "Mah" "fex"M - MiracleA - ActionF - FigureEX - ExtraMafex = Miracle Action Figure ExtraGOOD! Now you understand the Miracle that is Action Figure Extra! Nice Jobbu! Remember to like, comment and subscribe and click the bell.
>>11123789Mayfex.
>>11123789neat if true
>>11123789is it extra cause of the accessories or what?
>>11123796>Mayfex.You may pronounce it however you like although May is a month good sir. In Japan it is pronounced Ma as in "Ma and Pa".>>11123797>neat if trueIt is. It's on their website.>>11123870>is it extra cause of the accessories or what?I can't say for sure as I don't know if it is specified, I imagine it has more to do with sounding cool rather than any particular logical reasoning. The Japanese like to use English words to sound cool. Maybe they use because extra perhaps means their figure line has more to offer than other companies' lines? Or it could be Mafex sounds better than Maf.
>>11122556>Gonna be a really dry 2025 MAFEX year for meThey teased The Matrix figures. I'm excited for that, and less capeshit in general.
So glad I held off on all batman figures so far, this is exactly what I want, maaaaybe the black and grey version but blue will do too. How long does mafex usually take from announcement to preorder to release?
>>11123973About a year between preorders going up and release. No telling when that particular batman will get solicited, though. Could be a 2026 release for all we know.
BBTS has some reissues up for preorder:Blue Hush BatmanRoS Black Suit SupermanHush
>>11123980Lmao may act cheeky and wait for the inevitable black and grey version of the reminiscence batman.
>>11123986Well that was random, but very exciting since Hush Supes just got reissued those were all the harder ones to get. Now is a good opportunity to get into the Hush line
>>11123789May-fecks
>>11123789"Mayfex" Just because Japs can't say "hamburger" and say "hambaagaa" doesn't mean you should too
>>11123789/mă'fĕks/
MAF-EX
I guess no one here cares about AOA X-Men?
>>11125242AOA Wolverine will sell well because it's Wolverine and it had a cameo in Deadpool. Plus the ridiculous hair is kinda cool.
>>11125242No, nobody ever has. I don't know why they wasted slots.
>>11125242I think they're cool but I already decided to pass on the ML ones. You can't buy everything.
>>11125242Not really, no. I was thinking they might get a bump when Member Berries '97 season two speeds thru AoA, but supposedly it's going through rewrites to excise Beau DeMayo's influence?I kinda wanna put Cyke's legs and left arm on Wolverine for shits & grins, but otherwise no interest.
>>11125242I was looking forward to Cyclops as it's my favorite sesign for the character, but I can't justify spending $80 on a minimally sculpted character with next no accessories. I can just uae that money to grow my warhamer pile of shame.
>>11126283Sounds like you should get the ML. And I'm not trying to say this as some kind of snarky dunk or anything, I'm saying it with full sincerity. There's nothing wrong with liking a character, but not liking them enough to want to spend $80 for a figure of them. I do that all the time, even if the import or whatever is better than the cheaper figure, I'll opt for the one that I feel comfortable paying for. There are certain characters that will get me every time but there are others where the $25 domestic is more than enough for me.
What's with Dark Knight Returns reissues? BBTS had them for a while. Now Hobby Genki, but Batman and Carrie is alresdy out of stock. Fuck, I just Want the Batman Carrie teo pack and Superman.
>June2025249 - WEAPON X (Age of Apocalypse Ver.)250 - CYCLOPS (Age of Apocalypse Ver.)
>>11124037>Now is a good opportunity to get into the Hush lineIf you can even order one.>>11126658Scalpers gonna scalp.
>>11122066Welp, time to drop this line
>>11127412I mean BBTS still has the hush Batman and hush himself up for preorder so it wasn’t that hard
>>11123968Oh shit, I forgot about those.
>>11125242As far as comics go it was the best of the worst runs, all downhill from there.
You would think MAFEX would reissue brown suit Wolverine because of D&W synergy.
>>11128534It's been rumored for a reissue this year from a "reliable" source.
>>11127811Not everyone lives in burgerland.
>>11123789Mayfex.Anyone who says it's "Mah-fex because the A stands for action" is genuinely retarded. Same goes for gif.
>>11129063Willful ignorance truly is a sight to behold
we need a Jap to solve this problem
>>11129613The Japanese reviewers I watch pronounce it "Mahfex". *shrug*
Robo says mayfex.
May-fex morons are the very same retards saying Fig-arts.
>>11130371Don't tell me you're a Fih-Gyu-Arts kinda guy.
WHO CARES HOW YOU PRONOUNCE MAFEX, can we talk about toys for fucks sake?
>>11130404thats now how you pronounce mafex, its mafex.
>>11130403Fig Warts
>>11123986>BBTS has some reissues up for preorder:>Blue Hush Batman>RoS Black Suit Superman>HushHush Superman is also back up.
>>11123973Same, glad I skipped the first Hush Batman since the capes ended up being way too thick and this looks like it has a much more accurate head sculpt.
>>11130544Thanks for the heads up. They’re saying he’s due for September so hopefully BBTS won’t be on their normal delay shit. It sucks we won’t see that Batman reissue until almost a year from now though.
>>11130560I mean technically if you wanna argue accuracy, the chest logo on that one is only accurate to some flashback scenes. The other one is still the main Batman for Hush.
>>11130562I preordered Gambit in June and it still hasn't arrived. Hopefully they actually get it.
>>11130576They should get it, it just might take a few months longer than they originally said
Does anyone here own both Robocop 1 figures? I’d like to see the original compared to the renewal since I’ve heard the renewal has a purple blue sheen to it even though it’s not accurate
>>11130672The problem is it's overdone.
>>11130680They did that with the blaster on their first Mando, too.
>>11130680Good lord that’s bad. Why the hell did they change it with the rerelease? Usually its the other way around like with >>11130690 they fixed the pink blaster with the rerelease.
>>11130672The suit does actually have a purple sheen to it in the film, its like a pearlescent paint job you'd see on a car. Its just not this heavy handed.>>11130680I have the original and the reissue and my reissue is still nowhere this purple. My robocop 2 reissue on the other hand is probably even more purple. Seems like mafex reissues are a crapshoot, didn't the venom have a lot of complaints of bad paint too? The original definitely looks better however it seems to have an issue where all of their elbows crack as they age so just buying that one instead probably isn't a great option at this point either.
>>11130806>didn't the venom have a lot of complaints of bad paint too?They may have been heavy-handed with the blue highlights.
>>11130806>their elbows crack as they agenow i kinda regret buying the reissue. is it gonna be a problem again?
Hush Superman already sold out on BBTS, kinda shocked it went that quickly
>>11131231Rape prices. And it doesn't come out until months from now? Hell no.
>>11131296They actually have the Superman listed as next month, but yeah will probably get delayed
Superman and Batman in-stock at HLJ. Get in quick before the scalpers do!
>>11131707As is thishttps://www.hlj.com/mafex-batman-blue-ver-robin-the-dark-knight-returns-medmafex-139
>>11131707Got DKR Batman, I hope they reissue the armored version one of these days.
>>11122556I'm on the opposite end, Mafex will be sucking me dry next year
>>11131707Goddamnit looks like I missed it. By Batman were you talking about the TKDR one or the hush one?
Can you coax HLJ into undervaluing now? I'm thinking of getting some stuff there, but their shipping used to be quite expensive and they used to not undervalue.Do you think the TDKR double pack will return(kek) on other sites?
>>11131857Nin nin games still hasn’t put up its preorders yet, they’re listed for the 30th so I’m thinking sometime today they should go up. Maybe tonight or early tomorrow morning as well.
>>11131836TKDR. The superior Batman figure if I'm being honest.
>>11131893Eh, as a figure maybe. I think both look good and flip flop between my preferred look. Both have cape issues though, you either have the oversized blanket Hush cape or the pleated cupcake TKDR cape.
Ordered the TDKR two pack from nin nin now along with Wamuu and Esidisi SAS. RIP my wallet
how come Hush Supes seems way more coveted than TKDR Supes? Both seem comparable to me.
>>11132228I own both and TDKR Bats is easily the better figure from engineering, qc and generally just feels nicer to fiddle around with. >>11132366Less stylised/more definitive look that can fit into any display. However, I have seen people do custom headswaps on TDKR Supes which look pretty nice.
Enough of these virgin DC reissues. Bring on some chad Marvel reissues.
>>11132480I honestly hope they give us a new Superman with a smiling headsculpt one day…
>>11132531Hopefully they make a Superman for Doomsday to fight which includes at smiling face
how the fuck they have like 500 batmans but cant order like 100 superman copies and make everyone go into a rat race to get one
has anyone been charged for first avenger cap?
>>11132366IMO TDKR Superman needs a headswap to be perfect. I got one to do that anyway. Just have to wait 3yrs for BBTS to actually ship something.
>>11132733damn I just thought of something evilThey may include a smiling supes headsculpt with the Clark Kent to get increase sales of it
>>11132919Yeah I’m not a huge fan of the TDKR Supes head, especially the hairI’ve seen people swap the Mezco heads onto it which looks great. Any other suggestions?
>>11132951I'm actually getting the same head in your pic for mine.
>>11132951Also speaking of, anyone own that Mezco supes? A lot of people say it’s the best 1/12 Superman.
>>11132955lollmao even
>>11132955Pajamas Superman? lol
>>11132955>A lot of people say it’s the best 1/12 Superman.A lot of people who are too far into Mezcos to start a new collection so are coping with their big-headed-pajama-man that doesn't scale well with any other figures except other dwarf-proportioned mezcos.
>>11132849Lack of any good Superman figures. Hush Supes has his fair share of problems (weird proportions, no smiling head) but people will look past anything when their only alternative is McFartlane. Things were crazy for the Hush Batman reissues too. Or anything Jim Lee related.
>>11132955alot of mezco figs suffer from the "mego effect", however i dont think their supe is one of those. i really like that fig, and in my opinion, they do classic figs really well (such as green goblin and their golden age batman.) if the 125 dollar tag isnt a big deal for you id say go for it.
>>11133044no figs 4 cranky nigs ;)
>>11132849Up at hobby-search. Been up for an hour so no more bitching if you didn't get one:https://www.1999.co.jp/eng/m/10658965
https://www.amiami.com/eng/detail/?gcode=FIGURE-054567Hush Superman reissue up on amiami for those still looking to get one
>>11133169>>11133107Did they have like 5 each of these wtf
>>11133555These things sit up there for hours or even days and people are like "omg they're never up!"
>>11133555Yes.
Please note when you go to buy these more expensive shipping options that most places in Japan are not accepting packages right now because of the tsunami.
>>11132951If you're going for Miller's style, thst head doesn't do it. But on its own it's nice.
>>11132951Do the skin tones actually match? Another amazing headswap I have seen is with the old Public Enemies figure, but the head is far too orange for the TDKR body.
Are we ever going to get a comic Wonder Woman at any point? Seems long overdue
ENTER MAGNETO
>>11134449I really want them to reissue this. The ML's are just not good enough but I'm not paying bbts $105 for this.
>>11134622If they reissue this it will still be $105, if not from scalpers then Medicom price gouging.
>>11134662They just reissued a bunch of figures at their old prices, anon.
>>11134662You know you can sign up for in stock notification emails from various jap sites and get mafex figures anywhere from $52-$69 right? I just got an email last night with the Hush Superman for $72 shipped but I've hit my limit for the month. Have fun.
>>11134669japanese law does not actually allow them to just reissue at a higher price point without changing somethingthats why you see things like 'renewal version' with different paint or they throw in new accessories
Not sure if this is the place to ask, but I'm not sure where else I should. So my Bane I've been waiting for from Amiami has supposedly arrived in the US. They sent me an email about a week ago with a USPS tracking number. However, it hasn't updated at all since the label was created, it's still been in pre-shipment status, meaning USPS hasn't received it from Amiami yet. The label was generated on the 20th and hasn't updated once. I contacted USPS to verify the shipping address and it's correct and contacted Amiami who said just be patient. Has anyone else shipped their stuff via their Surface Mail Premium option, and if so, how long did it take them to actually get the item to USPS/whoever your local carrier is once the item arrived at your country? Thanks.
>>11135031It's in customs, that's the longest part of the process and will probably take 1-2 weeks, but worst case scenario could be a month
>>11135031In my experience unless you use DHL the shipping process can be looooooooooong. Best to be patient, you should be good.
>>11135031most likely you will eventually get it. The shipping will update suddenly and then 3-4 days after that you will get it. I've had packages seem to get stuck for 15+ days for no reason but they always show up eventually.
Do you guys think they’ll ever do a T-800 wearing his first outfit from the first movie (the grey punk field jacket and cool t-shirt)
>>11135495I hope so, I like that look a lot. Even more so than the figure we already got. The NECA figure of that outfit looks like shit nowadays. They did give us a head with the hair for that outfit with the other release though so we’ll see
>>11135506Yeah that’s my all-time favorite T-800 Model 101 look across all Terminator movies and I’m not really sure why they gave him the head with the haircut on the first T-800 release, he never had that haircut with that outfit as far as I know and the only head I’ve ever used on him is the battle damaged one anyway. I almost bought the NECA one because he is wearing that first outfit but I’m biased against NECA because the first and only one I ever bought was the Entity (“Freddy”) from Wes Craven’s New Nightmare and that thing is a total piece of shit, I’d sell it if I could find his alternate demon head which I’ve misplaced somewhere
>>11133560I have cap shipping in on ems from hobby search. Should I change it?
>>11135495I wouldn't bank on it, they gave their T1 release the head and the weapoke associated with thay designs scenes, felt like a "we're only making one figure for this so here's everything" thing.
>>11135661>weapoke associated with thay*weapons associated with that God I type like a retard
Do you guys think comic Cap will actually come out this month? I wanna add stuff with it
>>11135635If you absolutely gotta have it sooner, yes. In my experience AmiAmi even charges less for DHL.
>>11135390I kind of suspected it was this. I've never done Surface Mail before so I'm not familiar with how the process works. Thanks for reassuring me though.
>>11135682Lmao he looks like utter shit what are those proportions? Nice bell bottoms too gaylord
>>11135920>what is a classic costume hurr durrfucking dipshit mcu tourist
>>11136042Come on man, that was the laziest bait.
Why cant mafex make a good MCU Captain America? I know people are burned out on MCU stuff, but I was excited for this. Bucky was a perfect release but lately mafex have been doing Steve so dirty for the mcu. Those single jointed elbow and knees are not only visually striking but ugly and not functional. On top of not capturing his proportions correctly I fear medicom will never make a proper cap hopefully they improve on future releases.
>>11136072Endgame and The Winter Soldier figures were excellent though.
>>11136072Why are you copy pasting from reddit
>>11136072Why the hell did they choose to do those elbow joints?
>>11136124Why not?
>>11136129Because single jointed and 90% of the other figures they make have the double jointed elbows?
>>11136156But you get the same range
>>11136072>those wrists and fistsholy kek did a mcfartland sculptor do this
>>11136072I'm guessing their losing interest in MCU figures and are just shitting them out due to mandate.
>>11136245I’m not sure why those bracers are so goddamn big, it’s not accurate and looks awful with the tiny fists.
The only MCU shit I want at this point is a Deadpool and Wolverine.
Venom 2.0 using Bane buck when?
>>11136870Can they use molds for different companies?
>>11136879well it would be basically be a whole new sculpt anyways, but that size would be cool
If John Mafex made a Dead Strange figure, would you buy it?
>>11136916No, that movie sucked.
>>11136922It's the best MCU movie actually.
>>11136916No
>>11136916Their Infinity War Dr Strange is one of their best figures so I'd probably be interested in a Dead Strange, it would depend on the price and accessories. What I really want is a decent Wanda figure though, preferably her WandaVision look, but I'm willing to settle for the MoM look at this point
>>11134622Better watch those quantities on BBTS - once he sells out there you're fucked. He's worth every penny. Can't wait for the inevitable Mafex Apocalypse. Want them to make an archangel, sabertooth and if they did a juggernaut, that'd be wild.
>>11136975Same goes for Bane. He's worth every penny and the price is only going up.. If we ever got a mafex juggernaut, he'd have to be around Red hulks size to be acceptable.. can you imagine
>>11136975Magneto already sold out on BBTS (he's only available in substandard packaging). Glad I got mine.Omega Red and Sabretooth showed up in Jim Lee's 90's run so I'm hoping we get them at least.
>>11136992There's always a bigger guy.
>>11136992I hope ct toys makes a bootleg of bane
>>11136975
>>11137009How's that X-Force Wolverine? I've been waiting on the brown suit reissue but I'm tempted to get that one.
>>11137013NTA but I've seen people turn it into a decent Krakoa Wolverine if I miss out on the next brown suit reissue.
>>11137013He's cool. Goes great with the xforce deadpool and really fun to pose - as all the mafex wolverines are.. Brown suit is still my favorite tho.
>>11137034That brown suit Wolverine looks perfect. I think I'm still getting that one. Thanks.
>>11137039It really is, price is only gonna go up since we saw that Hasbro plans to disappoint with their upcoming version.
>>11137047That's crazy. It's gonna go for $450 in the aftermarket.
>>11137049The only one listed on eBay is over $600 and the last sold one sold for $419
>>11123973This is really quick and rough - will be looking forward to the blue update, with hopefully a more manageable cape then the original.
>>11137051>>11137049Ooof, and I thought I got a doze if the late tax on him. I really would wait for a reissue at those prices.
>>11132480>However, I have seen people do custom headswaps on TDKR Supes which look pretty nice.Not a great pic, but I got this head from bestlee_studio a while ago. The colour doesn't match neck, but I still prefer it over the original head, and eventually will try and repaint the neck to match.
>>11137086Are these your edits? I want the black with oval yellow symbol and then I don't ever need a batman again
>>11137146Yes, I just did them tonight, have been wanting to see how they'd look in colour.The black Hush Batman is one of my favourite figures, so a Black with yellow oval version will definitely be solid.
>>11135682Yes. Confirmed for 24th. I've almost lost all interest in marvel waiting for this. If it's good it may reinvigorate my collecting.Still waiting to hear on daredevil. Eradicator delayed to October.
is the 2.0 Dark Knight Rises Batman worth getting or should I try and find the 3.0?
JOHN MAFEX PLEASE REISSUE BROWN SUIT LOGAN I BEG OF YOU
>>11134446>>11134449the white wall is a better backdrop than that stupid ass transformer box you always use.
>>11137097Looks like shit. Big ass head.
>>11137576get the 3.0 but beware the ankle articulation is fucking horrid.
>>11137966I don't care.
>>11138015Nice pose
>>11138017Thanks.
how do you guys feel about hobby-genki?
>>11138246Not a bad back up
>>11138246Never ordered a mafex figure from them before but I've never had an issue with them when it comes to figuarts or revos.
>>11137621The second it does scalpers will but them all up.
>>11138371ive been comparing their prices with hobby search and found genki is way cheaper. mostly curious if there was some kind of catch, like if they randomly cancel orders and such.
>>11138380I use them for my P-Bandai stuff since paying in yen tends to save me $20ish. I've never had an issue with them. The only problem I had was when Bandai cancelled the Andrew Garfield unmasked head from the SHF NWH figure. HG had to relist the figure as a separate listing, but reordered it for me when they asked. They also threw in a decent size chunk of store credit that I ended up eventually using on something else. They've been a little slow to ship stuff out for me in the past but it's only been like one or two things, most of the time they tend to be fine. I like them.
>>11132951We need more smiling heads for positive heroes. No mafex supes has a smile. Amazing Yamaguchi flash having no smiling head is criminal
>>11138379I mean even if that’s true, I’d rather pay the BBTS rape prices of around $100 rather than the $300+ scalper prices right now
>>11137621some bootleg kino coming up
>>11138535I might actually get this... Kind of funny that we have 'pretty good quality bootlegs' with CT now.
>>11138535its a fake account...why are people so gullible?
What was the main issue with the mafex big chap again? My mezco one suffered the issue with the legs and i'm seeing the mafex one for cheap but remember there was some QC issue with but not exactly what it was.
>>11139479It falls apart easily from what I remember. What’s the Mezco issue? Leg stuck?
>>11139518Because of how they injection molded the silicone body the hip armature threading isn't super solid and it now is stuck in the factory default which is splayed out. Which is a shame because it's a gorgeous figure for something that has that gross seamless body
>>11139523I think that’s the same issue this guy hadhttps://youtu.be/IQ5Ma4adxSg?feature=sharedHe outlines a fix that should work
>>11138574prove it.
>>11138509That's not a custom superman, you just put the bruce wayne head on it. It doesn't work, btw. Doesn't look like superman.
>>11139579It looks fine to me.
>>11139582well youre wrong :)
>>11139579The headswap between the 2 of these is not a simple plug and play. It does require flipping the neck piece and adding a new balljoint. The hair has also been repainted and a cowlick added. So that is very much in the criteria of a “custom”(or i suppose a kitbash if you want to get autistic about it). Overall im satisfied with it. As adapting figures to your own tastes makes each piece more special.
>>11139784It's Bruce Wayne though. Doesn't look like Superman.
>>11139784Sorry, that's Bruce Wayne.
>>11139795>>11139796The guy said it works well enough for him. Why do you autists need to drag everyone down into your pit of misery with you?
>>11139844Autists really are insufferable and get off on making spaces shittier with their presence. What's nice tho is you never meet their ilk irl so it's not so bad. Kinda funny even to think their entire lives are as miserable as the few seconds you spend reading half their post before scrolling by.
>>11138380They take forever to shipLike a month or more at timesBut they have been pretty good with replacement parts and such.
>>11139795>>11139796Clark and bruce have been said to look alike with superman even filling in for batman on occasion so there is a logical basis that can be followed in the swap. Honestly we are adults talking about toys. Some people are representation purists and things NEED to look exactly like a certain piece of media. Others want to capture a spirit of something they love. And most people are a mixture of both. I have no attachment for to Hush as a comic book, but the mafex release of Superman in that style was near perfect. It lacked a smiling head which is quintessential to the character in my mind. So I could either blindly consoom and have a place holder until the “next product” that is a marginal improvement comes out. Or I could take initiative and adapt something to fit my tastes because my collection is for me at the end of the day.
>>11139784>>11140036It looks good anon. Don’t pay that other anon any mind, I’m pretty sure he’s just shitposting.
>>11139578google ct toys twitter and I'll let your critical thinking do the rest.
>>11140036Those are the animated versions. The figures aren't based on the animated versions. Also, the alternate Hush Superman head looks nothing like the Bruce Wayne head you used. You lose again.
>>11140356you ever read hush? Jim draws clark and bruce the same fucking way minus the hair and glasses.
>>11140382The figures don't look the same.
>>11135682Looks like they might've darkened the blue a bit, but it's probably lighting.
>>11140394Nta but holy shit, just shut up already. If you didn’t know it was the head from the Batman figure you wouldn’t know it was Bruce Wayne. It literally has the cowlick for the hair and a strong jawline, it’s Superman.
>>11140036>zoomer animated takeWhy do you care that we tell you it looks like shit? If you like the shit you like it.
>>111405021996 was 28 years ago anon
>>11140036>It lacked a smiling head which is quintessential to the character in my mind.This is why I passed on him as well.
Some x-mans.
>>11141165Looks good.Out of the figures which is your favourite? I owned Wolverine for a time and he was pretty good.
>>11141203There's literally an episode of the Superman TAS where he pretended to be Batman.
do we think mafex will take on the line?
>>11141165Why buy mafex if you're just gonna do boring ass poses?
>>11141381show us a cool dynamic pose anon
>>11141381Take that faggy shit to the other generals
FML.
>>11142262I don't read moon runes. What does this say?
>>11135390>>11135410>>11135473It still hasn't updated... I'm starting to get nervous guys.
>>11142356it probably has to do with the typhoon that hit japan, delivery will take longer than usual.
>>11142370It's already in the US according to Amiami. They sent me a USPS tracking number almost two weeks ago and it hasn't updated yet, it's still just in Pre-Shipment waiting for USPS to receive item.
>>11142262>>11142329LMAO I forgot to clarify. DAREDEVIL DELAYED TO OCTOBER
>>11141380honestly i pray for it to look good so we can get more movie 1/12 figure atlast
If they’re gonna do Bruce and Clark, any chance they’ll do a Commissioner Gordon for the hush line?
>>11142670A high maybe, looks like they might be doing everybody
>>11142262>>11142452You have to assume every figure will be delayed at least a month at this point.
>>11138535Someone posted a prototype Brown Suit they were working on in one of the Facebook Mafex groups a week or so ago. Havent been able to find it since though.
>>11123789Mafex still sounds like the most American name ever. I was genuinely surprised they were Japanese when I first discovered them. Their most popular stuff being capeshit didn’t help.
>>11138535I think I’m a fan of CT toys but the replies in all their tweets is full of desperate broke people and idk if it’s sad or funny or both.
>>11144039it's even more funny when its not even the official account.
>>11139479Well I picked him up and unless there was a running change in the run at some point I have no idea what QC people we're talking about because this thing rocks and makes me mad I paid out the ass for the mezco now.
>>11144080That doesn’t look great. I’ll stick with the NECA one.
>>11144086Can I see yours? I'm curious.
>>11144086Idk if NECA were more widely avalible where I am and not the cost of getting an import I probs would've gotten their big chap or the isolation one. But I will say in hand the paint on this looks ten times better then what i've seen of the NECA it matches the brown tones more and that almost amber look to parts of it. Also just sculpt wise it has the more accurate one which I prefer
>>11144088He can't, he doesn't actually own it.
>>11144086It objectively does and I don't even own the figure.
>>11144017I know it's crazy to believe but Japan likes capeshit too
