Maxima of Almerac announcement any day now editionprevious: >>11227108
>>11233305Was she in a leak?
>>11233305>picrelated.webm>>11233311noNot Jerrett is using /toy/ as his AI fapfic tier dumping ground
These threads are so ass. Can someone take over the OP from this monkey?
>>11233399contribute
>>11233399Seriously, someone make a real thread.
>>11233399He is too fast in creating them, he must monitor the thread nonstop once it gets near the limit. I doubt anyone else is going to go to such lengths
>>11233431Someone else should just make a real thread with info and a non AI generated image and we'll just use that one. Just don't use these shitpost threads. Someone was making proper threads for a second but then stopped. Let this fag flood the board with his shitposts, it'll just lead to a faster ban.
Bs dc general op or not, id actually enjoy a maxima figure. Id be curious too see how mcfarlane would spoil it.
So, should I just make a real thread? I don't even follow McF stuff usually, so I don't have release info.
>>11233490Please do
>>11233486He's going through 90's characters right now. Give it time and he'll make a Maxima and Bloodwyn.
>>11233486She would be a cool toy
>>11233690>>11233305>i want more shelf warmers like a contrarian faggot
>>11233691>pegs should only be warmed by endless variations of batman toys
>>11233690I'd buy this just for my barbarians collection. Looks like a Red Sonja type of character.
Is it confirmed she's coming out in April?
>>11233449>AIIt's a custom from google, you deranged lunatic.
>>11233721>It's a custom from google, you deranged lunatic.
>>11233402No time for discussing toys. The unmedicated schizo is going to be triggered for the next 300 posts because someone else is faster, smarter, funnier, and has a better collection than him.
>>11233402I have several of the New 52 Superbro figures that I really likes and remembered the anon from a few months back who posted this picture of Not-Quite-Todd-Slop Superman (since at least the head sculpt AND facial expression was good) with this wolf Krypto and luckily Anon replied that it was a GI Joe/Timber dog, which I tried finding and bidding on but it was always way more money than I thought it was worth, new or used, especially if it was going to stick me with another figure to have to sell for that Joe.So I was in Michael's looking for some stuff to use as backgrounds and needing some other craft goods and found a cool like wolf dog for under $5 that is almost identical but has dark spots in his white fur. I'll need to repaint him but have no venting now so need to sort that.tl;dr here's my blog post contribution, anon.
$250 for the Joker Boxset!These American toy manufacturers are in for a rude awakening.
>>11233750Looks good, anon.
>>11233785I knew it would be a lot but damn
>>11233785They get what they fucking deserve!
>>11233813this has gotta be a shoop right
>>11233821No
>>11233824well at least this shows the set, you can tell they were really padding thoses features on the side lmao-plant-chair-floor-wall-jokers shoes-jokers hair-cup-book
>>11233813just imagine the reseller priceits fomo or gtfo now
>>11233824>>11233813>ALSO includes full size prop replica items: Joker notebook replica, "Don't Forget to Smile" metal sign, Open Mic Night Poster (paper) and Forgive my Laughter (card stock).Ok?
>>11233834booo wheres the sign to beak over jokers face
>>11233834i cant tell if your fuckin with us or not now
>>11233845Nope
>>11233857my brain cannot process this. good bye
>>11233813>>11233824>>11233857>Release after second movie bombs horrendously and destroys the reputation of the first>Include a bunch of extra shit most people probably won't even take out of the box>Make it $250McFarlane's lost it.
>>11233813The joke is on us
>>11233867on top of that the figure looks worse than more single carded ones
>>11233873I’m waiting for the MafexThe set is nice but not worth it
>>11233785>>11233813>>11233857You can also take his rags off and hot glue
>>11233813>>11233824You're laughing. Todd McFarlane is charging us $250 for this and you're laughing...
>>11233857for only $250, you too can be Joker!
>>11233813>250 dollars>Nigga won't even be able to sit downMcSHARTlane back at it again!
>>11233857No one is going to buy this now. McFarlane has gone insane. Did he see Joker 2?
>>11233920>McFarlane's been insane.
>>11233940Those are actual DC characters, anon. Their price isn't even insane.
>>11233955Batgod's boyfriend has been a DC character for more than 80 years now, son.Also, it's not that they are or are not actual characters, it's that he is a cheap insane idiot who will slap paint on something that already has a bat symbol on it, then slap an upside bat symbol on it, and sell it to stupid punters like you for 'non-insane' prices that you happily pay, all while you gobble todd's old man saggy balls and flacid peen.
>>11233857Isnt this just going to be exclusive to Todd's store? What store would carry a 250 dollar playset? Most won't even carry Marvel Legends anymore
>>11233813This was a big risk, and after Joker 2, they are going to have a really rough time selling this.
>>11233973even without joker 2 this set is ass, if anything the memes might shine more of a light on this abomination
>>11233857KINO
>>11233973It's gonna sell out and you're gonna cope.
>>11233857fucking completely illegible
>>11233998>>11233857>>11233824>>11233813
>>11233990Then this toy industry is headed to destruction anyway because that means they made so few that whales and scalpers were able buy them. When whales and scalpers are all thats left of an industry, it's an irrelevant industry indeed.
>>11233824I get why he decided to make helms deep with paper, that shit wouldve costed $2000 easily if it was plastic.
>>11233857The fuck? I don't want all this extra garbage Todd.
>>11234006>it's an irrelevant industry indeedAlways was.
>>11233857For $250 you can pay two hookers to play Joker and Murray in your couch and they will even suck you cock after.
>>11233998If you can't read that you have bigger problems than a 250 price tag
>>11233813>toys of rape victimswtf Todd
Today we saw Todd ask for $250 for Joker toys. Amazing.
>>11234132why not?he asks for multiple hundreds of dollars (even higher than porcelain prices) for his plastic and pvc resin 'figurines' and 'statues' and he's using no name sculptors and still defiling the dc direct name by slapping it on this cheap ass garbage
>>11234132Haslab Giant Man was $50 cheaper than this set lol.
>>11234159if that's the Hank Pym with the scary facial expression they have been posting in the marble general, it looks like it's worth $200+. this looks like $50 and overpriced at that!
>>11234132how else is he going to buy those sweet sweet baseball memorabilia?
>>11234046>For $250 you can pay two hookers to play Joker and Murray in your couch and they will even suck you cock after.>"You're awful, Hooker Murray"
>>11234057youd have to pay me to actually try to decipher that shit i have a headache just looking at it
>>11234330>Get an STD from Hooker Joker>You get what you fucking deserve!
>>11233733sorry i upset you, i will allow you to post now. just dont freak out over mediocre figures like a spaz please
>>11233947aww that figure let me down big time, my only frame of reference for him is his appearance in the snes game so when i saw his mouth covered it just didnt feel like the same character
i know nobody here bothers to buy toys or talk about them, but the superheavy set was marked down to $21 and i wanted bloom anyway so buying it was a no brainer. the rookie suit is so much better than the mattel baf, and also way bigger. i think this set was priced crazy at msrp but for less than a new single figure it's an insane value. this was my least favorite part of the capullo/snyder run back then but looking at it again now it's kinda sick
>>11234538the way they engineered bloom's boots is super irritating and he has an annoying lack of forward torso range considering the sculpt, and i wish he wasn't missing the fishnets, but not awful.
>>11234540far from perfect, but it wasn't that long ago that it was unimaginable to do these things with dc toys
>>11234378>i will allow you
>>11234554>>11234540Did they ever reveal Bloom's origin? I stopped reading the Snyder run after DC You and the idiotic Gordon as Batman crap happened and how they basically shaved off Gordon's mustache and suddenly had him looking like post-Emerald Twilight Guy Gardner in terms of de-aging him to his early 20s.
won this MOC tonight for $5.50, so I'm going to sell the body of the one I have and use the spare heads to kitbash a Businessman Lex Luthor. I've already tried the heads on some McFarlane bodies but I don't know that I really need that much articulation.Anyone got suggestions on current bodies in black or blue suits I can use for this? I saw a WWE wrestler but he looks like a manlet when you put him next to any DCMVs and had neck tats even with the suit on. Plus it was a bright blue suit and I want a politician type suit.
>>11234609Bloom was a literal nobody to the point that not even the guy responsible for giving him his powers (Lucius Fox IIRC) knew who he was or if he was even a he or if he was a she. Bloom was part of a group of poor people of differing races/ages/genders who were part of a super secret medical test run by Lucius using tech created by New 52 Dr Death (who in the Snyder continuity found a way to make bones grow uncontrollably ala Marrow from X-Men), except instead of bones, Lucius made everyone ingest floor seeds and then used the tech Dr Death used on them, modified to make them be able to control and manipulate/generate new plant life. Which backfired and led to the entire facility where the testing happened burning down and Bloom being the only survivor, who destroyed all records of who was in the test group, so their identity could never be found out.IIRC the only things we eventually found out about Bloom was that he was black and male. Everything else about his past life is a mystery.
>>11234610Valley Forge made a custom Lex in a suit with a Marvel Legends figure that was dark blue.
>>11234615I like how they totally warped Lucius' character and made him a mad scientist
>>11234075Everybody in the DC Universe has been raped at least once.
Don't you understand what Todd is trying to do with the thousand platinums and the 250 dollar diaramas? He is trying to help teach you a valuable lesson that justbecauseit might be a product you might like doesn't mean you should buy it. He is trying to break you of your addiction to toys. To teach you the pain of living. What you want is not what you need. At great expense he comes to teach this lesson to you that maybe this time you will walk by that Joker diarama, and somewhere he'll smile. Because while he has lost a sale, somewhere, someone gained their life back.
>>11234664Bitch, I'm at a point in life where I can afford things I want and not just need. If I want to spend my money on stupid shit that I enjoy, as long as it's not hurting anyone else, it is no one's business but mine. Now, that being said, Todd is being outrageous with the pricing and Platinums and everything. I absolutely would've been willing to spend $100 for the Joker set, but $250? Absolutely outrageous, I'll just get the Mafex instead. Todd isn't trying to break your toy habits, it's just pure hubris on his part. He thinks he's such hot shit and that his farts don't stink and that because of the property and his name alone will draw you to purchase an item despite the subpar quality.
>>11234620Yeah that's what had me thinking that. I saw some Professor X in suit bodies and then saw some Tony Stark in a business suit. I also liked the recent Indiana Jones series of bodies, because I thought the cocktail jacket one would make a great Bruce Wayne with this unmasked head I also snagged - not that hong kong one I would have preferred but who wants to pay scalpers to feed their cheetos habit.
This unmasked head
Punchline and Joker are on sale on Amazon today if anyone wants them.
>>11234734>Aids man and lady boyI'm good bro
>>11234674There's always something you need more: retirement. The more you save, the earlier you can retire and stop suffering. That's more valuable than any plastic knickknacks.
https://www.bigbadtoystore.com/Product/VariationDetails/297065https://mcfarlane.com/toys/joker-movie-live-murray-franklin-deluxe/The Joker set is up on BBTS and should be available soon on Gamestop, McFarlane store, Amazon and Entertainment EarthLet's see where it sell out
>>11234774>Let's see where it sell outLooks like Entertainment Earth only bought a couple
>>11233813How do you make that a $250 item, pad it with dumb extras and not include at least a talking head for the host?
Pls understand
>>11234837I could almost believe this if it wasn’t for all the platinums and chase figures he is doing at the same time. Todd needs to fucking stay in his lane, he makes toys that aren’t even worth $25, $250 is insane.
>>11234837Joker is too mature but they can sell MK figures with dismembered limbs just fine.The set doesn't even have a brain-blowns-out head swap for Murray!
>>11234837>We had to make it expensive because muh mature nature of the movieZack Snyder's Justice League was rated R, so suck my dick Todd, you fucking lisping faggot.
>>11234837shoulda just made it a statue then
>>11234837So they have to charge more for this but can charge regular prices for The Suicide Squad figures, also an R rated film. I call bullshit. This is more of that hubris I was talking about earlier. Suck my farts Todd, I hope no one buys this.
>>11234837That is Bullshit & Todd Knows it…I’m sure hasbro has the same issue with Deadpool & Wolverine… oh wait they didn’t.
>>11234881I honestly don’t even doubt WB told them they have to ensure it doesn’t end up in toy aisles and forced them to price them high to prevent that, but at that point Todd should have just done the smart thing and said fuck it and passed on doing it at all.
>>11234774Only just found out about this. I want it so bad, but fuck that price, Jesus Christ. There's no way the backdrop and props themselves are worth more than 50 bucks max.>>11234837At least this is vindicating. Actually wild to see a company acknowledging shit like this. But god damn that is one horseshit excuse.
>>11234837Restictions by whom? To sell this item where?
>>11234897i assume they still want joker to be seen as a child friendly property and the movies go against that so theyre pricing him out to discourage buyers.thats just my guess
the only way to include guns in a dc figure is to make sure it says "not a toy" and yet still people screech about "TODD MCFARLANE" as if 1) he's involved at all and 2) like this isn't shit every person with a dc license has to deal with. you people are retards. joker sucked ass anyway.
>>11234894>There's no way the backdrop and props themselves are worth more than 50 bucks max.if everything was sold separately by dc direct 5-10 years ago this is pretty close to what it would add up to. as one package in 2024 it looks like a pretty bad value either way.
>>11234906>LEAVE TODD ALONE HES A HUMANNNN
>>11234774>>11234837>$250 >doen't even include the pistolfukking kek DC and McFarlane, you DC Fans get what you deserve for putting up with Todd's shit all these years. from shitty joint cuts, shitty female figures, shitty accuracy, platinum edition chase of the actual color people want, diapers, shitty ankles, making you buy the same figure again because he won't inlude alternate heads. Just fuking keks all around.
Only they can save the DC toy brand.
>>11234921>doen't even include the pistolyes it does you fucking retard
>>11234902That and WB actively hates this movie and its fans. I’m sure that has something to do with it.
>>11234881rating aside, suicide squad and joker are two extremely different movies. one is like making toys for terminator and the other is like making toys for bad lieutenant
>>11234929there was a term called "permanence" thats always effected joker figures i read about a while back>>11234923heres ur hasbro dc figure bro
>>11234937Unironically better than anything Todd puts out.
>$250
>>11234837baraka comes with a bloody brain to stab
>>11234837This is bullshit. Anyway, who else got their order in after the proper amount of bitching?
>>11234961Forgot my pic!
>>11234937>there was a term called "permanence" thats always effected joker figures i read about a while backcan you explain?
>>11234837Someone get a Todd AI to read this to me so it sounds even more condescending.
>>11234968i forget the details but the guy that used to work at mattel explained it in a video and directly mentioned it as being he reasonwe never got a joker batman in "the batman" line from 2004, im sure you can find it if you dig around. think it ws called unproduced batman line figures or something
>>11234940go buy one then you fuck
>>11234837
>>11234991Ok
>>11234837PR bullshit as proven by >>11234952
>>11235029i know it sucks but warners thoughts are probablt that dc has kids stuff with the joker and mk always has been for adult since the beginning, no one accidently gets their kids a mk toy while batman characters one the other hand is entirely possibleim not saying its right its just what theyre thinking right now probably
>>11234963>>11234961>Anyway, who else made an order to screen shot to immediately cancel afterwards in order to shill for an aging talentless hack?
>>11234963im going to lmao at you when the single carded one comes in 6 months
>>11235035Nope!>>11235039Isn't it already know that Joker is getting a single release? I want the set.
>>11234963>paying $250 for two figures and a cardboard bookend displayIf one were to make this on their own they could get a $10 Joker body, $10 Joker movie head print, and spend about $5 getting backdrops printed and glued to something that doesn't look cheap and won't warp like cardboard, like polystyrene. The most expensive parts might be getting 1/12 scale chairs and a desk, but even that shouldn't be more than $20.Making Murray might be trickier since you'd have to repaint a Joker suit body and buy another head, but really who even needs a seven inch DeNiro figure?For like $30 max you could have Joker and just not bother with a space hog talk show set taking up an entire shelf.Then again this is the line with Jokerized variants so apparently anything Joker sells so none of this shit has ever made any goddamn sense to me.
>>11235034Anon, MK was what all the kids were playing back in the 90s. The blood and gore were what made it "cool" and "edgy" Those kids just grew up and still play MK. Execs are just out of touch and think like soccer moms
>>11235051Jokerized doesn't sell, it rots at target.com and in stores
>>11235047Damn, I heard whales like you exist but I didn't believe there were really people as retarded as you.
>>11235047Joker single release is a platinum, ebay exclusive
Chances the OP is showing off his brand new Joker diorama in these OP pics in April?
>>11235057It's $280, in what way is that a whale price?>>11235059Just like Question :(
>>11235060Nah, I'm a Superman guy. Batman stuff has always seemed silly and gay. Mr. Freeze is cool but the one I ordered was defective so I returned it.No chance in hell I'm wasting my money on that shit haha
>>11234921>putting up with Todd's shit all these years
>>11235061What do you mean $310? I would never accuse $340 of being a whale price!
I hate Jarrett so fucking much it's unreal.
>>11235068No shit, you've only been shitting your pants talking to yourself into tantrums about me for like two years, retard.
>>11235067This>$400 is a very reasonable price. Other companies would charge you at least $440 so be greatful I'm only asking $450 + shipping
>>11235069I'm not even the schizo that constantly points you out just tired of your none stop shitposting
>>11235068>>11235069>>11235075
>Joker sells for $500+shipping+tips>I'm still here, pegwarming>the dust is getting so thick I can't even see if people are walking by anymore>Black Friday is coming and kids still like toys, right?
>>11235067Shocked the NEET doesn't understand taxes.
>>11235075lol I refuse to believe God allowed not one but two of you insane chronically online retards who think about me 24/7 and derail threads with your bullshit
>>11235063Can you at least put effort into the OP and not spam them as soon as they hit the bump limit? Can you just not be w raging faggot?
>>11235103See>>11235119Multiple anons hate you
>>11235119>>11235121Think I'll just keep having fun and you can keep seething
>>11235125I like to have fun. That's my image for example. You just constantly make low quality treads and low quality posts.
>>11235138He's intentionally gaslighting you, anon.
>>11234774Why Joker sit like that?
>>11235155Destroyed asshole
>>11234837>unique price restrictionsThe idea of someone at WBD being like yeah it's gotta be $250 dollars is kind of funny if bullshit.
>>11234837>That's why we packed as much value into the box as possibleWell yeah, that's a big cup

>>11235094It's only $480 after taxes, we should be thankful Todd is giving us such a deal.

>>11235337Yeah I know I don't think $520 is that much for the set.
>>11235268I would pay $39 - assuming it's bigger than the biggest vehicle - to $49 depending on what it came with and that it wasn't as cheap and 'cardboard-y' as the Retro Batcave and Stately Wayne Manor kiddie-grade 'play sets,' but that's unlikely so an absurd price point for hollow cheap plastic with basic paint.>>11235292>Reign of the SupermanNot a boomer or Byrne Bro here, so sorry can support you.

So even the scalpers aren't falling for the joker set
>>11235180The only collectibles available for the first film were statues and a bust, all priced over $1,000+. Then InArt did a 1/6 scale figure set that, again had to cost over $1,000. Only recently did they relax on that, but obviously still restrictions on price and where it can be sold. MAFEX has a figure coming and that'll probably cost more than usual. We'll see.

>>11235419>>11235418These, the Terry here >>11226000, and the Ivy here >>11221642 look good but are not really anything special enough for the prices Mondo (e.g. Funko) is wanting them to sell for. Sure they have extra accessories and far more than Todd normally provides, but not in the tens and twenties in multiples more.They are definitely not better than the imports and nothing really spectacularly special about them to justify being more expensive than DC imports action figures.While the Mezco carded 5POA single BTAS figures are still a tad overpriced for what they are, something like the Batcycle with a figure, especially if you could have pose him off the motorbike, which it appears you cannot, is a far better value at $30 over the Mondo stuff.
>>11235570>They are definitely not better than the importsThat Ivy blows away literally every other Ivy made, anon. Begging you to find a better at 6in or 7in scale so I can buy it instead.

>>11235490>>11235481>>11235464i feel like you people live in an alternate universe. this is typical for the holiday section of any target.
>>11235582He's not the person who posted the batcopter. I was only on the Mezco sight to write them a note about my Superman Mechanical Monster. I don't buy batcrap so I'm not going to waste time talking about or looking up batwank related characters. I agree with that anon, that if you just want a sexy attractive characters in your home, buy a fucking statute, it's one reason why I have spent hundreds of dollars of those. They have better sculpts, better asses, better faces, better bodies overall, etc.All that said, you are paying $200 for "soft PVC."
>>11235588>1/6 scale is so kino you guysFuck off retard
>>11235583>>11235588>no answerExpected as much
>>11235591lmao he was siding with you, retard
>>11235593I answered your question you retard. The Mafex is obviously better.
>>11234837Let me get this straight: Neca can put out a figure of a man getting shot to pieces in graphic detail for $35-40 bucks no problem.But McFarlane has to inflate the price of a glorified playset because of the "mature nature" of the movie, when it doesn't even include parts for the climax of the scene its adapting. What a crock of shit.
>>11235604Not accurate to the source material, certainly not as much as the Mondo. I'm finished with you, lol
>>11235584>alternate universeI live in a suburb of large metro area, we're only about 90K people so Super Center kinda stores. Like I said, this is a Walgreen's sized Target and that part of the holiday section was by the last food aisle, against the wall, and was about the size of an aisle end cap. They had different areas in the store for crap like wrapping paper, and others for crap like fake holly and lights. Toys are elsewhere, only one aisle, both sides, and a half aisle for card games, puzzles by the few sports things.
>>11235609>$35-40 bucks>use $ and "bucks"kys you esl piece of shit
>>11235614Then buy a statue. I'd rather have something that is functional and doesn't have flaking paint, like Mondo is known for, then something that is only marginally more source material accurate. Statues are more your speed.
>>11235520Totally worth it. I believe batman with the horse is 70 bucks up on genki too
>>11235609NECA's hot hog shit. Never bring them up as an argument ever again.
>>11235617>only marginally more source material accurate1/6 is for faggot but come on lol. that flakey bitch looks like she stepped off the screen.
>>11235629She will look like HARDAC once the face paint flakes off
>>11235626Congrats on losing your argument instantly, the guy's right, you are wrong. Deal with it.
>>11235570>They are definitely not better than the importsThey absolutely are
DC was a respected and loved brand once.
>>11235651The movies ruined that.
>>11235573mafex ivy easily mogs it
>>11235712This is too absurd to work as a troll, anon. It's like saying a statue has more articulation than a Revo, at it's core it is not a believable stance.
>>11235715Sorry that objective facts hurt your feelings, but they're the truth.
>>11235626Wow you sound like a fucking retard
>>11234941
>>11235609>>11235626Please censor the company name when you mention N*** outside of its containment thread to avoid summoning him.
>>11235896How about you quit trolling the thread with this stupid bullshit instead?
>>11235900Warning anons that you literally CTRL-F the board to look for wrongthink about your sacred cow isn't trolling the thread.
>>11235926Well that sure is a bunch of insane BS that doesn't happen that you just posted.
>>11235926Paranoid schizo
>>11235609Every Walmart and Target in America has versions of this titty beast with a dagger, smoking chalice, and a rotting skull with a snake slithering through it for $40.
>>11235945Wow, you are actually paranoid.
It's so wild that the obsessive faggots on this board who always post about their boogeymen never actually post toys. They always bitch about how it's Valley Forge or the NECA guy ruining threads with zero awareness of how obnoxious and off topic their own bitching is.Anyway, imagine having to display this shit on your shelf back in the day.
>>11235960>Valley ForgeHis name is Jarrett
>>11235960Fucking this.
>>11235938Todd's mainstream and gone soft. Even the Spawn toys are shadows of the "push the envelope" style they were in the 90s. Soft, rubbery sculpts, lack of paint, or messy paint. Todd doesn't even know how to sculpt women anymore.
>>11235960It's all just so tiresome. These people really need something else to focus their time and energy on.
>>11235967Fucking this.
>>11235960Valley Forge posts on /toy/ now? He's a Daniels from SL tier tripfag.
maybe i'll open that hal jordan todaybeen keeping him in the box until i get the fever for a new figure again
>>11235616
Insider here: movie Joker solo release will be a Collector's Edition
>>11235938>Every Walmart and TargetI hate to disappoint a zoomer whose main source of news are tiktoks and threads and whose version of reality is bogged down in nonsense, but Walmart has these things called 'neighborhood' grocery stores as does Target, that barely carry Hot Wheels. tl;dr YOU'RE WRONG
>>11236041Listen you dumb hysteric cunt, I bought my Elvira at a Target. Walmart still has the red dress version.
Noooo, not the booger girl!!!
>>11236055This was such a disappointment to find in person. Pictures don't show how bad it really looks in hand, you can see all the joints and inner mechanics and it looks awful.Remember how badass the old Poison Ivy figure from the two-pack with Robin looked?
>>11236034I thought it had to be 250 bucks because it was subject matter that DC was ashamed of?
>>11236045>I bought my Elvira at EVERY Target. >I went to EVERY Walmart and they ALL still have the red dress version
>>11236064she does look like a dog faced galand he has no nipples OR bulgethat and except for the very few who prefer perky boobs to big round mounds make both of these useless
>>11236045Don't even try anon, is one of our resident schizos.
>>11236107God damn you're stupid.The point is that Todd is saying he can only sell this Joker set for the absurd amount of $250 because of the adult subject matter while in toy aisles across the country you can find entire sections full of hyper sexualized and violent characters that don't cost as much as a used Playstation 5. In fact, there are cartoonish versions of blood-soaked transvestite serial killers swinging chainsaws.Todd is lying to you. Any credibility he had left has been completely blown. This Joker set is the moment where everyone with a functioning brain, even imbeciles like you, sees him for the snake oil salesman he is. He is openly exploiting the brand and lying to customers, blaming mysterious policies enforced by the company allowing him to make products of their properties.I hope this shit hurts him and someone else gets the license.
>>11236122>Todd is lying to youI mean that's been obvious for a while now. Like all the stuff about the Batmobiles and how much it costs to do this or that...
Isn't Joaquin Phoenix a tree hugging hippie? Maybe he hates the idea of his image being sold as a toy and thus the high price tag to deter people from worshiping his image further
>>11236125Yes, exactly. But he's always been able to hide delays and mass order cancellations and increasing prices by blaming this or that or China. Now he's blaming WB, which is pretty fucking stupid since DC is the only McFarlane line that makes him money.Nobody else is releasing half painted figures and hiding it with the cape in promo pictures, or blaming unpredictable release dates on China, or having to release apologies lying to the people who made him millions.He got greedy and he got stupid.
>>11236131Nah mcfarlane is good, better than hasblow that's for sure.
>>11236131They may be planning on pivoting away from DC when the next license renewal comes. They have survived through lean times before, as McFarlane has noted, by keeping core staff small. They could go it without DC and just subsist on small licenses again. And most likely McFarlane will need to move production out of China soon due to the coming tariffs which will take some time. They won't be able to keep producing this amount of figures that DC expects because they would either have to raise prices by 60% or take a huge loss on each figure they make.
>>11236129There was an obvious ban. Like the gun ban.
>>11236165The gun ban ended as long as they print NOT A TOY on the box. It doesn't have to cost 250 bucks
>>11236167Why do you worship Joaquin phoenix the dude is a faggot and he hated the praise for the first film.
>>11235649
>>11236122>all licenses are the same and follow the same restrictions retard
ticklin this green lantern boxmaybe today's the day he gets out
>>11236122You lack reading comprehension son.I'm was not defending the Todd.Rather, I was pointing out that your hyperbole was logically impossible.As I pointed out, you children are no longer taught to think logically, so you cannot be faulted for the failures of your argument.Additionally, it's why you so easily and readily resort to "cunt" or even the classic basic-bitch "stupid."tl;dr go outside, breath. Now, keep quiet and stop proving yourself a fool.
>>11236129The more obvious reason the set is costing so much is the combination of BOTH DeNiro and Phoenix demanding a small fortune for their likeness rights.
>>11235651agreedhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yUn2B0fAgGg
It's over. After Power Girl comes out everyone is going to be done with Todd's bullshit.
>>11236760It won't matter, because most Power Girl orders won't be filled. The demand is too great and the supply will be too small. Not to mention her release in Spring 2025 will be right in the beginnings of a trade war. I guess Todd can eat the costs for awhile again ... maybe.

More like DC Clearanceverse
>>11236777>at least you're only peg warming at Target.Wrong. It's flooded at Walmart too.
Yikes, the Joker set was originally limited to 2 on BBTS and now they're just letting people buy their usual max per person of 24 if they want lol
>>11236799Jokerized Murray when?
>>11236787I never shop at WalMart. The last time I set foot in a WM, I was on vacation, and I only went because my friends wanted me to pick up booze and I thought it would be a good excuse to see what Todd was selling.It was one of those weird month's (mid-September) when this particular WM didn't even have Super Powers or ANY peg warmers on the shelves. Not even a lonely Catwoman for The Batman, or a lonely Mamoaman with Topo or even a Duke Thomas. This store barely had one LEGO Bat set, and a few Spin Masters, but an entire section of ImagineNext and that was it for DC. And it was a football field sized Super Store.I don't think I've seen that much choice in booze since the last time I was in a BevMo.
>>11236786>https://www.bestbuy.com/site/mcfarlane-toys-7-figure-batman-1st-appearance-dc-multiverse-multicolor/6568848.p>>11236787These are all subpar offerings people don't want. That's why they're pegwarming. We've seen what happens when there is a gold label figure people want.
>>11236807Booze demand is up. Toy demand down. What does this say about a society?
>>11236143I hit two Ross' yesterday and they were also free of DC stuff except for the huge oversized ImagineNext Bat play sets. LOADS of Mario, Turtles, Spidey and especially Transformers. Plus lots of anime/weeb crap I couldn't even begin to tell you want franchise they were from. >>11236132>better than hasblowVery high praise from some rando on the interwebz; I will subscribe to your newsletter religiously from now on, my good sir!>>11236131>in promo picturesHis promo pictures really are pretty awful in general. Whomever he is paying and where ever they got their business or marketing degree, they should be let go. I'm not into Batman but want to buy at least one at a DC Super Power but refuse to pay an arm and leg for crap I didn't want when it came out and certainly not for scalpers. But I would have picked up any recent random figure (well - not that stupid Thomas Wayne version) if I had ever seen a good promo shot that showed how smarmy and smug the impression looked when you saw the face close up.It's probably the best Batman face I have ever seen on a McFarlane figure up close. I would finally be proud to have a McFarlane Batman on display on my shelf is it was THIS smug motherfucker.But look at what a shitty promo shot this is.Where is the SMUG, Todd?Where?
>>11236071They need to recuperate some costs from the flop
>>11236816Setting prices so high no one will buy it isn't going to recoup costs.
>>11236786Nothing I would accept even on a buy one, get one free.>>11236816DC and Warner Brother's will collect money selling DVDs of this turd or licensing it for digital download 'sale' on Prime and iTunes than they will ever made from Todd's shitty license fees. FFS they will make more money licensing Joker 2 to fucking Tubi than they will ever make from any toy company or other collectible.
>>11236822DVDs are mostly over, and physical media will go with them.
Why'd they sculpt those boots?
>>11236929McFarlane is the best
>>11236935But really, why'd they choose to sculpt the boots when they knew they were going to reuse that buck like crazy on bodies without the same boots?
>>11236939Why does hasblow reuse bodies?
>>11236942Hasbro has the sense to not sculpt details on that don't suit the mold for reuse potential
>>11236929A blank buck with swappable overlays for boots and gloves were the better cheaper solution. Luckily they've realized this for with the earth 2 buck.
>>11236952they do it all the time. you would know if you bought toys.
>>11236990Show me 3
>>11236777>>11236814>reddit spacing>loves Dan Mora >mister>hates anime>interwebz>my good sirSalutations my fellow redditor, good to see you back *tips fedora*
>>11236859Studios have a column for physical sales of their films, the DVDs, BluRays, Steel Books, etc., all go in that column, together with things like the digital sales from Google Play, Apple, and Amazon. The accountants call it ancillary sales. That's what the "or" in my sentence represents.And licensing (which includes Toddslop but also includes Joker PJs and plushes, if they made them for this sequel) would be a smaller column of money, even if Todd was personally autographing and including a sketch with each shitty toy he sold and charging $1K for that nonsense.An "or" means you read the sentence to the end, e.g. that period, for it to make sense, friend.
>>11236929I passed by five of those because of a lack of interest.I passed on another four of those because of design imperfections or details.I passed on another three (includes that two pack) because of likely cost cutting decisions made.I passed on another two for lack of desire to waste my money supporting Todd slop.I bought and returned almost immediately (with nor regrets even today that I don't own it).And the only one I bought is still in the box because I just have no desire to display more Toddslop in my home. Since that's the most desirable unmasked Barry, I might just flip next year for $80.
>>11237108>next yearDo it now
>>11237068Dan Mora's art is fun and it works for books designed to be fun like worlds finest.
Noooo, not Metfarto
>>11237148How is this line still going? Every figure goes on clearance.
>>11237148>>11237231Kek look how bored the jealous McFarlane anon is
>>11237231It's weird, people told us that if they did classic characters instead of Batman and Death Metal stuff they would sell. But there's Metallo and Fire still sitting on clearance. Maybe it isn't the subject matter but actually...the QUALITY that leads to people not buying these figures?
>>11237260Maybe no one gives a shit much in the same way marvel crap shelf warms just as hard
>>11236929SIRWHY DID YOU REDEEM THOSE BOOTS
>>11237267Now that's a wholesome meme right there
>>11237068>redditor>fedora
>>11237262Marvel Legends is barely in stores anymore and Todd's Marvel statues are on the way out likely since they're already on clearance. People think these are good licenses but they really aren't anymore. Platinum scalping may be the only reason DCMV is still in stores.
