>>11547878>jacket piece/jacket arms apparently there was one on Amazon for as little as $14 but it's currently sold outalso, having to buy an accessory that should be fucking included sucks ass
>>11547878Armor Hal for 22 is a rip off. He was on sale for like 12 bucks online recently. Too niche a look for a wide release.
>>11547920McFarlane screwed over Death and Return of Superman fans so bad.1. Producing tease newer versions before the classics to extract maximum profit.2. Real Superboy is entirely incomplete without customizing that destroys the first Superboy figure and still has no glasses even then, so still incomplete.3. Horrible, inaccurate Steel with droopy hammer and weird mixed plastic and/or paint splotch experiment because who knows why.4. Making Cyborg Superman near impossible to find due to Gamestop being the only place that had preorders and then Walmart canceling almost any order in sight.5. Eradicator stuck with inaccurate sculpted boot outlines and zany cape that is only good for power-posing.
>>11547979You’re wrong, but that’s okay. I’m happy with what Todd gave us.
>>11548004Seems accurate to me
>>11547979don’t forget how eradicator has Buzz Lightyear’s jaw for some reason
>>11547971For being new, one Target I was at had him on Clearance, although it was a smushed box.
>>11548101Problem is, stores have no idea what characters and looks are actually in demand, and figures are still distributed in waves which is really dumb as far as a perspective of allowing in demand figures to sell through their full stock by allowing reorders of popular figures. So the Target exclusive Cyborg Superman is getting sent to Walmarts because Target didn't reorder enough since he was packed with transparent Eradicator that no one wanted. So a peg warmer made an in demand figure hard to get. Ideally they'd just not make peg warmers but for some reason McFarlane Toys think "COOL VARIANTS" sell when people just want the canon look for the character.Likewise, Armored Hal probably kept Target from reordering some other popular characters as well that were packed with him, since Armored Hal is a somewhat niche look and people already know the issue with that hammer.
Ive got a yellow batman and a bulls eye patterned batman but my heart still feels empty.
>>11548319That's the way it is with the weird rare variants. You think you want it and you seek it out and are happy when you find it, but then you get the figure in hand and it's...just a figure. There's no reason to hunt for these things. None of them are worth it.
>another DC threadSTOP
>>11536435>Order from Amazon My Amazon order came and I already have it set for a return because Amazon ALSO SENT ME THE FUCKING CHASE,I've just been lazy this weekend to go drop it off at a Whole Foods>>11536165>as a business practice should be illegal. >that isn’t what you ordered and that isn’t what you wantYep, exactly. Now I have to try for a third time at BBTS or elsewhere, or just give up. At least it's not costing me gas.
>>11548354You have 9 LEGO Gens plus three stealth threads to pick from, if that's what you'd prefer, sisterNo one is holding a toy gun to your head forcing you to post here
>>11548355This getting a random chase you don't want stuff pissed me off to no end. That and how difficult it is to get even normal releases makes me glad McFarlane is mostly producing very weird niche characters now and will be losing the license soon.
Lego considers the critical and commercial success of Superman 2025 a fluke, so don't expect much Superman from Lego in the future. Instead, Lego is eagerly anticipating the much delayed Batman 2.
>>11548374I dont get why Batman is getting so delayed either.
>>11548382The fact that Matt didn't have a completed script before the writer's strike is really on him. And he had no family illness to point to at that point in time. I mean, seriously. He went into Warner Brothers in fucking 2016/2017 and conned them into giving him a three picture deal and control of their Batman franchise with a pitch about THREE actual pictures. It took him from 2017 to 2022 to push out one movie, and part of that can be blamed on COVID. Only about two years of that was spent writing. He's now spent longer just on a sequel script. And probably has no fucking idea what the third movie will be about or even what anyone would call a rough outline.
>>11548382It isn't being delayed, they're saying Matt Reeves is still working on the script, which is code for them waiting to see how Superman did and whether they want to pursue a Justice League with them together or keep them separate. It's all about which path would make them the most money. The script, which is always mostly dictated by the studio anyway with which villains to use and which stories they want to adapt, is most likely finished and they're just making world building changes to link things together. WB also wants their new movies to shine and gain a following on their own before playing the Batman card.Batman is the one character they have left they can make money with so they're super cautious about not letting it turn poison again like after Batman and Robin. That's why the Batgirl movie was disappeared.
>>11548395They're just saying he has a plan. Directors of those things don't really have any control over the stories, they're just handed coloring books by the studios and told to stay inside the lines.
What the hey dude
>>11548402Yeah. Just can’t go for it. It really sucks because David is a great choice for Superman and he understands the character better than Gunn. That behind the scenes of Gunn poking him in the chest and to cry because Lex hurt his feelings is surreal. Absolute clusterfuck. https://youtu.be/0IwY7Mfzw_w?si=ggivmPuXC8b4IY_VThe fact they thought this should be released is insane.
>>11548414Gunn should’ve been punched. Fuck that poking shit.
>>11548414>>11548402he was talking to a dog, you retards.
>>11548462DC Gen: dumb cunt general
What was the grapefruit Todd was so excited about relating to DC Multiverse in that one interview? He said one day he would reveal something and say "remember the grapefruit?"
>>11548469Task force platinum darkseid
>>11548398They had a finished script, that they presented to RPatz's business manager and agent so he would sign off on it. Y'all can keep listening to idiots yelling at you on YT for clicks and following imbeciles on xshitter who do it for the clout but Batpatinson and CorenSupes are never going to be in a movie together and never were. >not letting it turn poison again like after Batman and RobinGunn's also still working with Maschetti (sp?) and the writer(s) on the script for Batman and Robin which will either feature Dick Bats and the Demon Spawn or Bruce and the Demon Spawn, so you're going to get your live action Robin shoved down your throat and learn to love it, anon.
>>11548488it is the right colors at least
>>11548490They aren’t going to run two batmen at the same time and they aren’t going to wait 5 more years to introduce a Gunn version. The Batman will be folded in.
>>11548414>I HAVE HECKIN FEELINGS AND YOU HURT THEM AND THAT MAKES ME SAD AND ALSO A HUMAN EVEN THOUGH I'M LITERALLY A SPACE ALIEN>STOP SAYING #SUPERSHIT AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHSuperman acts like a whiny teenager and you have retards saying "James Gunn did it! He gave us the true Superman from my childhood!"
>>11548518Nobody's ever said that here. You're arguing with your delusions again, faggot.
>>11548520>delusionsKeep projecting, troon.
>>11548518I think they went too far in the opposite direction, it should be a healthy medium between Gunn Superman and Man of Steel Superman. Although Gunn was closer to the comics imo.
>>11548524Gunn's DC feels more in line with Silver Age DC, or even Grant Morrison DC. The movie definitely gave me the same vibes as All Star Superman.
>>11548395>>11548414>>11548518>>11548491Wrong.>>11548398>>11548464>>11548532>>11548510Correct.
James Gunn is a talented and intelligent man, I trust him to know what’s best for movie goers and toy collectors
>>11548553>okays dog shit suits that don’t translate to action figures
>>11548557The suit was fine
>>11548557Lex's suit was fine.
>hating suitsYeah why didn't Lex just wear crocs and sweat pants and a band t-shirt from when he was in high school? Fuck Gunn.
>>11548565That is how he dresses when he goes grocery shopping after all. He calls it 'comfy' but it just looks lazy.>fuck gunnIs that sex pistols cover band?
>>11548532Grant Morrison DC seemed very silly
>>11548518>it’s only Superman if it’s MY Superman, ie the stone faced stoic one from tas>or, if you’re a big time faggot, the douchey messianic Snyder oneGunn made literally the best Superman movie of all time and the seethe is unreal
>>11548714Stop arguing with yourself.
>>11548720Ok Paul
>>11548714You can make a good superman without him being a stoic. But there are some definite weird out of character moments in Gunn's Superman movie, and it would've been better had Gunn put less of his own feelings into the character. We all know this movie was essentially about his cancelation on twitter a few years back and it is really bald faced and obvious.
>>11548510They don't have B&R cast, zoomie.They don't yet have a finished script. So it won't be happening at 'the same time.'Unless Matt fucks up even more, Batpatinson 2 will be a late Fall 2026 or March/May/June 2027 release.That's about when they will be FILMING, at best, Batman and Robin. Probably not even then at the rate they are going.It feels like Gunn is the only one who works fast, probably because no one is rejecting his scripts and making them re-write them like he does to everyone else.Even if B&R released in 2029/2030 - which is the earliest possible dates, no normie is going to fucking care that there's been two Batpatinson movies before it.No one besides YOU will be confused.No one besides YOU will find a non-Elseworld Batman to be anything stranger than Aquaman wearing a lot of clown paint and ugly motorcycle jackets/pants and calling himself the Main Man next year.
>>11548735He’s been written by over a thousand different people and it’s all considered canon, what’s “out of character” is subjective at best
>>11548642Ive never read his 'main line' dc stuff aside from some of the jla stuff but i just wasnt a big fan of the art. Ive read several old interviews where he says he loved silver age dc and the wackiness of those stories
When will we get something from Camelot 3000
>>11548642Morrison really tried to evoke all eras of comics into his work. Read his Batman run where everything is considered canon, from the pulp detective shit from the 30s and 40s, the campy goofiness of the 50s and 60s, the swashbuckling adventurer of the 70s, the dark and grim vigilante of the 80s and 90s, and the Bat God of modern times. It really is something special imo.
>>11548642>t. never read Morrison
>>11548464
>>11548901NTA, but at times, he absolutely can be. Like I said, he pulls from every era of comics.
>>11548735What's funny is he said he relates with Lex.
>>11548928So he admits to being a psychopath openly. How disturbing.
>>11548901Vyndktvx is some of the silliest shit to appear in a modern comic
>>11548966I heard he want to become president.
>>11548880Insider hereIts coming in a wave with wild dog and bat mite. The rene montoya Question will be a red platty.
>>11548994literally nobody gives a shit anymore
>>11548916>>11548972Silver Age isn't "silly" (e.g. frivolous or foolish); in the eyes of many audience members, maybe it's corny - but comic bookish or cartoonish are more accurate descriptors
>>11549006lmao, at this point you're arguing semantics. Regardless of the vernacular you use, I do feel their were elements in the new Superman movie that leans into the Silver Age feeling stuff, same for the Morrison. I mean, Lex having a cadre of literal monkeys shitposting about Superman online feels like it was ripped right from a Morrison book.
>>11549009no
>>11548994Aw yeah, a red platty, she all but natty! Toddy Mac got ya back with a new shovel load of plastic crack!
>>11549059Wow two hands. Don't go bankrupt Todd.
>>11549059Probably almost as stupid as the blue Eradicator - my local Target had 5 of 'em last week and still had all those today when I went and got BBQ crap.
>>11549009Semantics can matter, anon.The Scooby Do comic books are, by your definition, silly. Morrison can use elements you (and other anons) want to call silly, but they are used to make a point. Scooby just wants snacks. Shaggy just wants snacks.The kids just want to meddle. There's nothing controversial or complicated or deep about the silliness in Scooby Doo.
>>11548994Crikey
>>11548994Camelot is a laundry list of characters, sweetie, not just one 'it' At least be the insider who knows the characters, not the insider who steam cleans the carpets after Todd has gotten his toe fungus all over it
>>11549289You are reading into things WAY too hard anon. Get a grip and stop looking for reasons to argue with people.
>>11549459My mom says i can be who ever i want to be when i grow up! I choose to be an insider, whether you like it or not. Good day sir
>>11549560This is on Gunn for okaying god awful character designs.
>>11549560Why did we get a Metamorpho figure for the movie but no Guy Gardner?
>>11549567All they had to do was repaint Mr terrific and make a new head
Jessica Cruz is a chase. No one will ever get her. Todd, your line can't end soon enough.
>>11549612His company is fucked if that makes you feel any better
The Batman Returns penguins are going to be its own individual pack at the price of a deluxe theatrical. Pegwarming Level: Extreme
>>11549612Dude, we all know how hard these are to find. Just get a yellow batman and be happy you got a new a toy instead of being sad you didnt get what you wanted. Todd is teaching us life lessons with multiverse but you cant see the forest for the trees.
>>11550070Todd is teaching us dating advice. Don't go for the 10/10 Jessica Cruz brunette bombshell, you'll never get her. That's why he makes female figures so hard to find. Instead he says settle for billionaire playboy Bruce Wayne.
>>11549612Nobody cares about that character.
>>11549560All they had to do was include a kryptonite hand and I would already own it. Or Joey ffs. Instead they included almost nothing.
>>11550160If it's a female figure, people will go after it solely due to Todd's proclamations against female figures selling. He probably tripled his female figure sales by doing that.
>>1155016924.99 doesn't buy a lot of McFarlane Toy these days. I think the basics are now up to 26.99 but MM was still released under the 24.99 MSRP.
>>11550172Target seems to be keeping costs down by a few dollars, compared to other sellers. I've no idea about Walmart since there are none near me and buying on-line from them is mostly pointless third party sellers.>>11549566Metamorpho is pretty accurate to his comic book design, unless you want him in BVD type brief looking trunks or boxer brief trunks; the board shorts was a good practical response.I agree, Coronswet suits suck ass and the Justice Gang suits were more MEH than not, especially sticking a fucking GREEN Lantern in one - and the color scheme makes no sense unless there's some Lord Tech reason - that the movie should have explained if that was the case.But Metamorpho, Lex, and Ultraman (as a slim Doomsday tease) are actually pretty good and definitely comic accurate.
>>11550171Smart man.
>>11549612>is a chaseThat's pretty stupid considering she was so popular on DC Super Hero Girls - even if it's not going to look the same or be the same, those girls (and boys) are now older and some moved onto into the YA/Teen comic reading audience, if they weren't already there.
>>11549567>>11550169I don't know why Todd ordered a Kaiju mega fig and not one for the Hammer of Borovia? Or even both - they made three mega figs for the Aquaman movie and I believe they made two or three for The Flash. Instead, the only thing we get is the Spin Master, which actually doesn't look bad for under $20 and a 6" figure that articulates.
>>11550463Todd is phoning it in if you couldn't tell. The license is lost, he has no reason to put out quality, comprehensive or complete product anymore. Anyone can look at that $50 Kaiju piece of garbage with Not22 POA and tell.
>>11549567You know I'd have bought another Guy Gardner!
>road trip>middle of nowhere Montana>go in wal ass>both Deathstrokeshell yeah.
>>11549566You know Metamorpho was created in 1965 and looked basically the same, right?
>>11550622These retards don't read comics
>>11550463>Comes with articulated limbs!
>>11550622To be fair, it's Metamorpho. Like "hey, let's put him on the Brave and the Bold, where we can make fun of the silver age" obscure.
Nobody wants a lumpy half pink half orange man in shorts on their shelf.
>>11550739Nicely done.
>>11550657>nigga> wtf>comes> wtf>articulated> wtf
>>11550646the conversations here make that more than obvious - which is sad, considering there's an entire comics and cartoon board that's probably more active than /toys/>>11550659Metamorpho actually was recently in a team book, about five years back, the Terrifics and he's had his own mini that just recently ended - which yes, was probably ordered up as synergy for the movie, but then again, they didn't do a recent mini for Lois, or Jimmy, Guy, or Lex, or a few other people (although yes, for Mr. Terrific).
>>11550463Did they fuck up the legs or something? What is wrong with this thing?
>>11550927Id say its the hips.
>>11550927Action feature. You squeeze the legs together and the torso swivels to make it look like he’s swinging the axe
>>11550659>where we can make fun of the silver ageBrave and the bold is a sincere love letter to the comics
>>11550993It isn't out yet, how does anyone know?
>>11551065They are talking about the cartoon series.
>>11551072This is the pitfall of having many media all with the same name. In 2159, people will be discussing old movies and one will say "I liked Superman" which will prompt questions of Superman from the 1970s, Superman the tv show, Superman from 2025, Superman from 2034, Superman from 2051, Superman from 2077 or Superman from 2099
>>11551096There is only one movie titled Superman.
For double the price, I could get a set of two extra hands. What was Todd thinking making these ROSS store $13 exclusives.
>>11550856>Metamorpho actually was recently in a team book>about five years back
>>11550993What you call a love letter, I call satire and parody.
>>11551178The packaging dimensions add to the price considerably. So you are paying for empty space in the cardboard
>>11551178Is this a joke or am I retarded
>>11551191Regular DC Multiverse version of that figure is roughly 24.99-26.99 and comes with 2 extra hands. If that is truly $13 then yes, its 2 extra hands for double the price.
>>11551188Your objectively wrong.
>Man of Tomorrow. In theatres July 9, 2027.
>>11551223>Lex already getting a redemption arc Fuck Gunns dc
>>11551202Amazing.
>>11551190Yeah, the standard release boxes have more air and since air is currently free those products do cost less. I still havent seen these yet but my ross sucks.
>>11551223Superman rang hollow, because as everything is going downhill, we have no Superman to save us. Everything including toys will be more expensive, more wars will be started and continue, you will have to subscribe to avoid ads, Google will know everything about you, etc. The world is increasingly not solely a place of physical danger that a miraculous flying man can save you from, but insidious hidden danger that destroys people with a thousand cuts of demoralization. And there is no escape.
>>11551260>And there is no escape.Think I’ll just throw my phone away and tend to my chickens anon. Once something step on my property then I’ll have something to legitimately worry about. Can’t do anything so why stress over it.
>>11551260Get a therapist.
>>11551225>redemption arcfuck no, nigga better create the Legion of Doom
>>11551341Only Dr. Doom can create the Legion of Doom.
>>11551225Notice the screws between Lexs legs? The implication is Superman undermining him. >>11551341create the Legion of DoomI bet that is what peacemaker will set up
>>11551181I hate to disappoint you, sister, what with your fingers and thumb on the heartbeat of popular culture, but unless you're big five for marlel or big 7 for dc, most heroes aren't on team books on the regular I mean look at Marlel's most popular character, miles morales, he hasn't been in a team book in like forever. Same for DC's most popular character, Harley Quinn.
>>11551209Your objectively stupid.
>>11551114>one movie titled Superman The MovieFTFY>>11551096>Superman the tv showMaybe in your fan fic future but in the real world there's been five live action Superman TV shows (six if you want to count Krypton, where only his cape - and relatives - appear); none of these live action TV shows are/were 'named' Superman and only 'Superman.'
>>11551422No one really cares about extremely niche stuff like the title actually being "Superman The Movie" or "Superman the TV Show" or whatever. They will still just call it Superman. Only cases like Smallville will be seen as not being called Superman
>>11551422
>>11551428This movie is titled Look Up: Superman
Hasbro followed tOdd
>>11551507Yup. Luckily Mattel will have stable prices at $32-$35
>>11551513That's more than tOdd or Hasbro though. Right now Mattel's prices are lower than both of them, and they should remain so if they want the competitive advantage
>>11551525They’ll be a better value proposition
>>11551529I don't care about accessories. I'd rather no extra hands and 1 accessory for $20. I'm the McFarlane audience from 2020
THE DOG LUTHOR YOU TOOK THE DOG

Some 80 toddies are on sale at BBTS, nothing of value but you all can jump on this beauty now that Max Mercury isn't the low man on the totem pole.
>>11551700maybe dog fucking is the new punk rock.
>>11551202>>11551178I wonder into any one Ross at least once a month to check out their toys, sometimes hitting 2-4 stores in a month just because they are on my way for errands. I've seen many remaindered McFarlanes, Marvel Legends, Bandai, Funko and other crap but never seen any of these Ross Exclusives. It's either a east coast or midwest thing, because y'all don't have Targets or WalMarts or some such.
Boy, dont you act like i dont hear you on my patio at night. I see you out there, articulating or 'posing' , as you freaks call it, all while peeping rhrough my sliding glass Patio door, staring at my multiverse collection. Its disgusting and you are truly a foul creature.
