>>11568160We all are my friend.
>>11568143>>11568158They couldn’t be bothered to paint the neck to match?
>>11568158
>>11568171It’s an alt head on a reused buck

>>11568171If that's the case they should had included his masquerade get up.
MAXXXSHRECK
i unironically need shreck now
The fact Catwoman doesn't have her alternate head with hair coming out of the mask is a shame. McFarlane is so stingy now with accessories on $35 figures, just because he knows he can get away with it.
>>11568235
>>11568143I always thought it was weird how Batman makes a big deal for Catwoman to not kill Shreck and then he just dies comically 2 minutes later anyways
I wonder, was that Max scene kind of 'censored' to make his head look sillier and less gorey? Or was that really the idea all along and Burton was just havin' a giggle?
>>11568327Pussy. I bet Batman torching that one fucker traumatized you too.
>pretending you were a kid in 1992you were in your 30's, only boomers talk about being spooked by movies
>>11568371Nta but I’m older enough to have jerked off to the Kennedy assassination.
>>11568158Who takes promo shots with that much black and shadow?
>>11568506Why are you here then?
>>11568528You’re here forever kiddo
>>11568506>KennedyBruh, lincoln or bust. I hate you new fags so much its unreal.
>>11568609>He wasn't around to shitpost when that mad lad George Washington pissed off the King.It's like you're all babies.
>>11568609Back in my day presidents knew how to take it on the kisser
just bought arnie freezebroke my no batman movie stuff rule with the returns wave and needed an arnie
>>11568655FROSTED TURD
I've just finished playing the Telltale Batmen games and I really want these suits as figures.
>>11568734>plays movie gamesgrossget a injustice fig if you love tacicool batman
>>11568745>knows nothing about Telltale
>>11568745>JASON!
>>11568734I’m sorry to hear that anon
>>11568745>Jaaaason where did he go?
>>11568143>another shitty opwhat will you imbeciles do when todd's not around for you to pull idiotic OP images while still flooding Todd Patio General with only his shitty greasy product mentions.It's not like anyone else is not producing shitty DC toys....
I guess you could leave, itd save you the trouble of bitching while contributing nothing but your sobbing. Just a thought.
>>11568734finished playing the Telltale Batmen games
>>11568929#4 seems to approve. And presumably when the license moves to Mattel, it'll be people posting about Mattel. Unless they botch it, then it'll go back to mostly not existing like it was before Todd
I've been messing around with the LPZZ Arkham Knight Batman figure and it's pretty good. Its biggest flaw is that the wires on the cape don't appear to tuck in anywhere so that hinders the function of the wires a bit. They're apparently rebranding as U-P-Fine Figures which is the worst name I've seen for a figure company
Waiting for:>Zatanna and Starman Jack>Batman Returns waveMattel wishlist:>Maxima, Parasite, Katana, Phantom Lady, Ted Knight Starman, Michael Thomas Starman, Uncle Sam, The RayI'm not sure where to put the Returns wave. I think it might be time to make room for another shelf.
>>11569132This collection is getting dangerously large. On the verge of becoming a hoard. Beware, i know that feeling of hoarding.
>>11569324>Anyone with more than 10 figures is a hoarder. This general is peak poorfag.
>>11569324It's overcrowded maybe, but contained to a single shelf. That is NOT hoarding.
>>11569132Only a gay would like Superman this much
>>11569347>Anyone with more than 10 figures is a hoarderYes.
>>11569390Lmao, this is some serious fuckin cope.
>>11569393No he’s right. Maybe not just 10 but anything past 20 or so is pushing in from a space and clutter perspective. Sounds like you have an impulse control problem dude.
>>11569352Which is why todd givws us so many batman figures. Todd hates gay people.
>>11569394Lmao, cope and projection. If you've been collecting for any meaningful period of time, 20 figures is nothing. I've been collecting for 15 years and have way more than 20 figures. If that's all you can fit in your studio apartment more power to you, but I own a house and have a whole room dedicated to my nerd stuff, including toys, games, and a space to do art.
>>11569396>you might be a hoarder anon>I've been collecting for 15 years and have way more than 20 figures. I have a whole room dedicated to my nerd stuff. YOUR JUST POOROkay.
>>11569399>You're a hoarder if you have a space dedicated to your various hobbiesBitch, I keep my shit in my den. It's not like I have action figures strewn all over my house. Get over yourself and this weird hoarder projection. Honestly, it sounds like you're more afraid of being a hoarder than anything.
>>11569402>emotionally immature >poor impulse control >insecure Okay.
>>11569407You're projecting again. You're the one insecure over my collection lmao
>>11569132Sandman is out?
>>11569447I think he reported he paid a scalper to avoid missing out. But afaik it's in store only so most people who aren't scalpers will never find one in the wild
Tell me about the Batman Returns wave...why did McFarlane even underproduce THAT when it was OBVIOUS it would sell gangbusters? What is wrong at McFarlane Toys? Do they not want to make money? Are they somehow losing money on each figure sold or something?
>>11569407>>11569399
I think I hate every single one of you.
>>11569559Even me?
>>11569559But todd loves you.
>>11569559
>>11569630
>>11569520product is manufactured based on orders from retailers long before they're made available to customers. how do you people not understand this
>>11569651Except that has been proven it Mcfarlanes case. They are a company of fucking retards.
>>11569653*proven false
Catwoman is the most important figure in the Returns wave. It has a widely recognized accurate headsculpt.
I feel bad for any of you still giving Todd money for shitting down your throats. You have an addiction.
>>11569520No one of us mere mortals can ever comprehend todds buisness savy. Todd is the elon musk or donald trump of the toy industry. A self made man blazing a trail of his own, on a journey of his own, to a destination we can only hope to hear of once he arrives there.
>>11569651Dude, Todd could just keep manufacturing, he has his own store, they'd sell tons still.
>>11569715Where would he store these items? Do you expect todd to keep cases of merchandise on his patio?
>>11569728You havin' a giggle mate? You think people will believe you don't know what the McFarlane store is?
>>11569132nice harem
>>11569559Lol. I know I do
Won't it be great when we are free from under Todd's heel and don't have to be at the preorder trough within 1 minute or risk sell out?
Storm will be making 6 inch MK figures in the arena line. Eat my dick Todd.
>>11569842eat my fully painted single jointed penis anthony
>>11569842Who are you talking to? What does this have to do with DC?
>>11569821I couldn't believe when I saw them available for preorder. Probably going to get cancelled or delayed but right now it says they're going to ship a couple weeks early.>>11569734Thanks.>>11569324I think for now I'll just leave them all out and keep adding new characters until the license expires, then start cycling teams.>>11569447I didn't want to fuck around with the preorder game with Wes so I paid a scalper for it. Shameful, but unfortunately necessary.
>>11569847>$111.27 for 3 McFarlanesWhen I think about it that way it blows my mind how overpriced these figures are now.
>>11569916yeah I know it's really cutting into that patio expansion budgetfour mcfarlanes at the old 24.99 was only ten bucks bucks cheaper than thatyes it's shitty and exploitative and I hate it too but if you want to talk about overpriced it's still cheaper than a single mafexwe both know those preorders will get cancelled and I won't end up paying anything for them
Is it just me or is the red Swamp Thing, maybe even all of them, pretty much impossible to stand?
>>11569924There are Mafexes for under 100 at BBTS. Some new ones like Poison Ivy and Scarecrow are ~$114 so its roughly the same as those 3 McFarlanes for much better engineering. That said I don't typically like Mafex's house style for DC so I tend to steer clear. While I do like Todd's house style, he made it very easy for me to cut back heavily due to him shifting to mostly either mold reuse Batman designs, villains dressed as Batman, or weird D and E listers from the mid 20th century in between a few actual interesting figures like Steph, Cyborg Supes or Swolecrow.>>11569927Most Megafigs don't stand well. Hell, many of the regular figures don't stand safely (ie risk of shelf dives) without the hockey pucks. 1/10 scale is just too heavy and too big, but that is the scale Todd chose so we have to live with it to collect the line.
Soon.
>>11569650Not the Superman gay sex yaoi
>>11569945>1/10 scale is just too heavy and too bigthis is a you problem. plenty of similarly sized figures in other scales stand fine and prove you wrong.
>>11569927Yeh, that one specifically is tricky to stand due to heavy upper body and awkward foot design and sometimes weak ankle rockers. Use a stand or a wide stance leaning the torso forward just slightly to counter the heavy back. Make sure both feet are flat and firmly on the surface.
>>11569945Standing is really only an issue with some of the megafigs, most of the regular stuff is fine.
>>11570102>>11570323You risk shelf dives if you do not use the hockey pucks. A McFarlane will stand "fine" for 2 months without one and then suddenly shelf dive. If you do use the hockey pucks then you are just saying the same thing as me.
Saw this in another thread so i figure why not repost it here. It should answer some questions about mcfarland and his toy empire.
>>11570353>A McFarlane will stand "fine" for 2 months without one and then suddenly shelf dive.I honestly can't see something like this happening, it being fine for MONTHS and then taking a tumble, unless you jostle the shelf or something.
>>11569964soonwe will goon
>>11570409I've had it happen with no known jostle of the shelf. The weight can gradually exert pressures on the unratcheted joints like the torso joints and toe hinges to shift weight--especially those toe hinges which if they bend forward even a little bit can cause a dive with no puck. The toe joints are not always stable on all mcfarlanes obviously. There's a range based on QC chance and your specific figure. Some come pretty loose, some come super tight, some in the middle. Some toe hinges on some of my mcfarlanes barely move unless I force them, and others are floppy and move on their own, some seem in the middle. And the torso moving a little bit can also cause a dive since it causes a weight shift. More likely to happen the heavier the upper body is. Very unlikely to happen on normal female figures but some stuff like figures with heavy wings can be top heavy. Obviously balancing them backwards can help so if they fall they go backwards but their legs can kick out figures in front of them if they fall backwards as well so still could lead to another figure in front of them taking a dive. Generally I try to secure top heavy figures much better than normal ones even with the puck. A few like the early Armored Superman are so top heavy they can actually lift the puck itself if posed in certain ways.
total ratchet joint deathmy troika can only lean like michael jackson sinces theres like only 8 grooves or whatever
>>11570456What's wrong with 8 grooves if they all work?
>>11570471theyre all in shitty locations
Back in the 90s nothing had ratchet joints, it was smooth friction. Why did they move away from friction joints?
>>11570396tl;dr"I don't consider them toys, I consider them plastic statutes.">>11569924>We all know you're an attention seeking imbecile who admits to a hoarding problem. >>11569559I'm only here on weekends, like the father who left before dinner to get cigarettes and never came back. I understand why you hate me, son, but don't forget, I hated you first!
>>11570530The world changes
>>11570544That is not an explanation for why.
>>11570533>Owning more than three clearance figures means you're a hoarderLol, El Em Ay Oh even. I see were coping again.
It's amazing how a boon like getting the DC license ruined McFarlane.
>>11570606DC is an evil thing that can ruin many lives. Todd was not ready.
>>11570612Its pretty obvous that dc corrupts everything it touches. Just look at dc gen, its pure madness here now.
>>11570625>jarret
>>11569964Fuck yeah, Arli$$
