Why is neca making 8in Batman figures? What kind of ridiculous scale is that?
>>11711704How do these faces work? Will they fall off? Does this mean all kids line figures have removable faces? Or just a few?
Are these new? I want that animated Zatanna.
>>11711710>>11711711 The accessories look fun as hell.
>>11711722Mattel supposely has the collector license, which might encompass 1:10 and 1:12 scale. So NECA increased their scale to 1:9 scale to keep on making DC figures.
>>11711732If she's as hard to get as the comic line I ain't even bothering with that.
>>11711711>For DC we get our first look at the first wave of DC Core 6.5" figures which includes Superman, Batman, Flash, John Stewart Green Lantern, Joker And Joker as Batman from Joker Wars. The Core figures should cost around $12.95 each and be out this summer.This is gonna be a HITPrice via toynewsi
>>11711732You'll be out after the 3 Zatannas after that
>>11711746Too expensive for a kids line. 9.99 is max for majority of parents for figures
>>11711728its a release from the old dc direct line from 2016
>>11711711>>11711710I wish I was 8 again and got to grow up with these kinds of toys. The fact they come with sprues so kids can get into painting and making kits, encouraging creativity beyond just shelf filling like McFarlanes, is awesome.My Superman when I was a kid was that clumsy 5 poa shit that looked like David Carradine with a mullet. The rest of the line was awesome and that was undeniably Superman's peak toy era but we never had a perfect Superman. The new mattel one isn't great but if I were 8 I'd have loved the shit out of that.
Man, I'm tired of these kids toys. Show me some imaginext so I can get hype yo.
You know, if Matt makes a $13 Power Girl with a giant Kryptonian battle axe or a cannon that attaches to her tits, I'd buy it.Maybe I'll stick around a little while longer to see what Matt can do.Todd still hasn't been able to get Starman Jack out the door.
>>11711704>>11711706>>11711709>>11711710>>11711711Really. For being the BUDGET kids line, these really don't look bad at all. Kind of impressed by Mattel with these. Will be interested to see what the collector figures look like.
>>11711777I'm not really into Masters of the Universe but this Elseworlds cover where Superman wears a suit of armor was always cool as hell and never got a toy, so if they do some kind of crossover thing with DC it might be my best chance at getting the parts to make him.Many anons in Detective Comics Comics General said when Matt comes he would make every good, and I'm starting to believe them.
>>11711778Fight me bitch
>>11711773This is how toy companies prey on people. They slowly get them interested in the next line even though the person already has tons of figures in a different line and scale
>>11711777They look meh and every bit a budget line to me. I don't get why people are impressed.
>>11711796
Super Powers is continuing but is Entertainment Earth exclusive. Will Todd finally give us more female characters?
>>11711764But it's a new rerelease right? New to McFarlane?
>>11711768I dont even think I had a Superman toy as a kid except for BTAS Brainiac. I think I had JL Aquaman too. Everything else was Spiderman, Batman and Xmen. I did love all my toys though and that Brianiac. I'm happy kids have shit like this though. And also me lol.
>>11711796>>11711797Good fake. A real one would be a Deluxe Collector's Edition Platinum Chase.
>>11711795I guess I'm impressed because I was expecting pure garbage and these look actually halfway decent. It's a low bar, but they managed to at least clear it.
>>11711773>cannon that attaches to her tits, I'd buy it.Mattel hire this man
>>11711785>so if they do some kind of crossover thing with DC it might be my best chance at getting the parts to make him.I'm really curious if any parts will be compatible with new MotU stuff coming out like. Like if they will have the same size head joint or HeMan can wear that Superman armour posted above or something.
>>11711796>>11711797No wire? No buy. Same to Mattel
>>11711821its not real
>>11711711Superman, Robin and Flash actually look alright. I might get them. Batman I'm on the fence since the emblem is shit and they'll probably release a Batman fig every wave.Has there been any mention of the price for these yet?
>>11711836Okay just saw they'll be $13, I'll definitely get them then. I didn't want to get into Mattel figs but for the price I might as well. Hopefully the "adult" figs aren't over $30
>>11711837not on ebay, doesn't have five shiny stickers telling you how rare it is all over the box
>>11711799yes, sorry i meant re-release.
>>11711777>Will be interested to see what the collector figures look likeSince the DC stuff is being handled by the guy over their WWE lines, probably pretty similar with as much reuse between the two as possible. The WWE line has basic and elite lines that reuse parts between the two and are usually in scale with eachother. Not sure how anyone can get too excited about it based on how they handle WWE--Weird variants, poor part reuse, chase variants, etc.
>>11711796nice gyno
6.5in scale is too big. Why don't domestic manufacturers make true 6in scale?
>>11711884Cope and seethe, buddy.
>>11711941Too small, I guess. I don't think anyone is even doing true 1/12 anymore. China's figures tend to skew towards 7". Mafex was always bigger than 1/12, and now even the smaller skewing Figma, Revoltech, and SHF are all making larger figures than true 1/12. Is Black Series still a bit smaller? Otherwise GIJoe and ML are 6.5", MOTU was 7" and soon 6.5", same for DC from McF to Mattel. Mondo's figures are 7" (though you can argue that these characters are just that big). So ya, basically no one is doing 6' = 6" figure anymore.
>>11711954>His literal fucking job:Steve oversees product development and marketing initiatives for core and collector portfolios>You: REEEEE HE'S NOT HANDLING THE COLLECTOR LINEReminder: he's the guy who announced the collector line and publicly said it'd be revealed later. You have absolutely gotta kill yourself my man.
>>11711961So based on this guy being the WWE guy, how screwed are we if we have interest in Mattel's DC line?
>>11711793It's not exclusive to toys, they use that tactic on basically everything. Even patios. >You don't want to be laughed at by your pals because of your old gpu do you?
>>11711722What the fuck kind of stupid question is that? It's part of their Retro Cloth line. They've been doing that scale for years and years now.
>>11711773Sometimes I think I could get along with you outside of here. But then I think I just want to borrow your books, especially the triangle books
>>11712016 depends on how you set your standards. mattel has literally never been not subpar. dcuc was behind their contemporaries, multiverse was appalling, the wwe line has barely evolved since it started all the way back in 2010 and they're still reusing parts from then.>>11712076 not everyone keeps up with neca's dogshit mego tributes, you fucking weirdo. shit inspired by shit is still shit. nobody likes you!!
>>11712123My standards are most McFarlanes should still be $20, so I'm skeptical I will be receptive to Mattel's DC unless they're ~$23 and look as good as those MOTU Chronicles figures, with maybe an allowance for $25 if the figure has a wired cape. But I already know they will not do wired capes.
>>11712145>My standards are most McFarlanes should still be $20not disagreeing but unfortunately the world we live in these days does disagree
I always thought "grapefruit" was Todd's ace in the hole, but now I think it was a cry for help cause Matt is going to grape Todd next year.
>>11712167Todd has basically left McFarlane Toys to the toady people he hired. They're now doing livestreams and playing at Hasbro brand managers.
>>11712119>nobody read my retarded shit the first time >>11712123>so I’ll edit it and post again!!!
>>11712223This doesn't flow like any hair I've ever seen over his temple.>>11712217Given the cuffs the wrist joint should be skin colored.
>>11712234i made a typo that i fixed within a minute you fucking retard. do you have anything to say about toys or do you just drool over your keyboard and offer nothing?
>>11712339>do you have anything to say about toys Do you?
>>11712420Black Manta has no head
They didn't even package their TF boxed display figures for DCMV properly, kek. Truly they are trying to make it an afterthought.
>>11712402you replied to a post about toys you moron.
>>11712339>durr no one wikes you!!Speak for yourself you dumb fuck
>>11711840I'm pretty glad to see more affordable toys again. I'm not a poor fag but this shit adds up and I'd like to get the kids some
>>11712625necanon has been unanimously hated for a decade
>>11711710I'm surprised Superman is actually attractive and doesn't look like handsome squidward or human shrek
>>11712789You need a break from the internet
Remember, 40% of all hyper extensions which happened while toy collecting happened reaching for the top shelf where some scalper hid a Zatanna
>>11712948If you don't stretch before a toy hunt, especially at the age of dc gen posters, then it's your own fault you pulled a ham string. Limber up fellas
>>11711773>>11711813Stop talking to yourself, whore.>>11712080Stop encouraging Jarret Especially in such a backhanded manner.Either like the attention whore or ignore it like everyone else properly does.
>>11712968kill yourself, schizo
>>11712968>>11713028You guys should kiss or maybe blow raspberries on each other's tummys.
Ah, DC gen. My daily dose of schizos, toyhating and self-harm.
>>11713334I now remember The Batman and the further we get from it the worse it seems.
>>11713334>>11713349Funny thing in 2027 when Mattel has full reigns on the license they get 2 big DC films with The Batman Part II and Man of Tomorrow
>>11713349I'd like to get further away from the batman if we could.
>>11713334 Looks both ways before crossing the street.
I checked around the main site and the toy site, and it looks like (so far), McFarlane hasn't reused this face, correct? So the only way to get it is from someone selling the body or someone selling just the head and at least, right now, I see people selling the monster and selling the tiny miniature, but no one selling the seven inch figure, much less just the head?But the body looks like the same body as everything else of late? I'm horrible at telling all these distinctions apart, unlike some of you, but that's just the Silver Age buck/Fleischer Animation, and all the other recent good bodies, but with it's own modern shield and the darker blue, correct?Thank you.
>>11713474>that's just the Silver Age buck/Fleischer Animation, and all the other recent good bodies, but with it's own modern shield and the darker blue, correct?Correct. Also, the head is exclusive to the pack. There's been other angry Supes heads (also in two packs), but they've all been different.
>>11713474That's the scrapped Dean Caine body so they gave it a gimmick head and a Godzilla
>>11712789kek, same
This blows my mindhttps://www.1999.co.jp/11311667
>>11713615Nice cankles, fat man
>>11713615WOWZERS
>>11713615Lil head big body looking face ass. For real, it looks like some sort of mecha design. Or a Todd mod.
>>11713635Some people abso-fucking-love big beefy cave troll Hulk looking men.
>>11713615Sorry DC, there's nothing you can do to get me to like your class warfare bait with terrible designs.
>>11713529>been other angry Supes heads (also in two packsThank you.Yes, I have one or two of those head. Although I think I would call some of them more frowning or annoyed! Someone sold me a lot of used McFarlane bodies that had the Red Son or the Rebirth buck with the angry head - from the Atomic Skull two pack, I think? I wanted the body so didn't really care, and that head is sitting somewhere. I'm starting to organize all that to decide what I want to keep and what I want to sell-off or donate.>>11713543That's the wrong shield and it's far too beefy for Dean Cain. And they revealed the Brandon Routh action figure this weekend, supposedly a Tom Welling is coming out so why wouldn't they do a Dean Cain before the year is out? McFarlane can't really do a movie six pack like they did for Batman, but adding Brandon Routh with the other three they have already, they can re-use and just add two of the television guys or even really appeal to the boomer Superman fans and do one of those weird black and white figures of George Reeves as a Collectors Edition Elite Platinum or whatever nonsense designation he's currently using.
>>11713656Shut up. You're fucking wrong.
>>11713474McFarlane is done with good comic superman figures, the next one doesn't have a wire. Silver Age Supes was the best we'll ever get without mods.
>>11713635it's psychological. people feel safer with them.
>>11713615>>11713653I dont even follow comics and the design is just a 'what the fuck' for me.
>>11713731Todd would release it as "Bane as Batman"
>>11713635>Or a Todd mod.it needs longer sexy legs and oversized batarangs and grapple gun
>>11711706lookin like he about to crank tha hog.
>>11711687
>>11713615absolute looks the part of a 90's comic parody
>>11713615Has Snyder gotten any better as writer since black mirror and court of owls run? People are saying absolute is good but I'm hesitant to read it since his previous works haven't really worked for me.
Idiot scalpers are already posting these on Mercari and eBay for much more than Todd's original boxed DC Multiverse sold for.He must be so proud of all that FOMO.And yeah, on my way to the mall to take one back. Like you other hoarders, I forgot I had another besides the open display.
>>11713696Gee whiz, I liked DKR. This is Batman who gets mad if he catches you sitting in his chair or changing the channel because he was just resting his eyes. Left looks good, but it's hard to mess up a classic look. >>11713820Have you ever heard the rumor that Azrael was a parody of the 90s?
>>11713842Are these really ross exclusive figures or am I just a gullible lump?
>>11713615it's quite funny that the main reason its getting hate is because is its insanely overpricedif it was ~$100 everybody would be shitting their pants at the incredible artistry that was able to be translated into figure formeverything from paint to proportions is pretty much flawlessmaybe wait until we see what the articulation is like before you start running your mouths
>>11713858those both look like dog shit. stop smoking crack.
>>11713858I don't care about the price. Nothing is going to get me to like DC's Absolute shitfest
>>11713656>Dean CainFrostbite edition coming soon.
>they Jokerized the fucking cowls
>>11713948we learned Jokerized is a DC mandate
>>11713949They are really desperate for their own symbiote funk pop trend. I dont get why they dont go with Bizarro stuff but oh well. Or green/blue/yellow/etc lantern variants. You know things that make sense lol.Imagine jokerized absolute venom.
>>11713948That Red Hood bust is really nice. The platinum version is a scam tho
i can't believe mcfarlane never put out total justice retro cards. the only thing i can possibly imagine stopping them is maybe hasbro has some ownership over the art or something? maybe whoever's in charge of the dc line is dumb. i've made it a point to try and put together a total justice lineup but it would've been a lot easier if they just did it for me.
>>11714158wouldn’t hold your breath for Zauriel or Despero at this point either
>>11714270If it's more than $25 we have issues
Batman is watching you masturbate
Modular batmobile is a cool idea. I bet they'll make a Batwing and other stupid bullshit for this. I wonder if the mecha can swap parts too.
>>11714372Wait I see pegs on his shoulders so it might be possible. I wonder if a whole ass figure is in there too or just a head.
>>11714369I have a feeling they'll be priced similarly to Marvel Legends and other Hasbro "collector" lines.
>>11714409I'll probably just stick with the McFarts I've collected then and be done with DC. I can see a line like ML that already has a built in captive audience going to 28 but a new line which has to lure in new customers that seems like a crazy move.
>>11714445If the figures are good enough, I'll jump in for that price. If a difference in $3 is enough to deter you, you didn't really want them anyway.
>>11714499Actually the preferred price for me was 22. I was willing to stretch to 25. Not 28.
>>11714523Just don't buy at release. If you only buy what you really want at release (or ones you think will sell really well) then buy the ones you want for your collection that aren't high priority on discount, then you'll probably even out at around that 22 pricepoint.
The sins of McFarlane Toys led to the purgation Mattel will bring.
>>11714580It just proved what people here are refusing to accept, that this kind of shit sells. DC themselves probably suggested it to Mattel.
>>11714158Supposedly SpinMaster has been using tate of the art AI tech on their next level pc computers to remaster Total Justice. It was going to be a Todd killer but Matt killed Todd so now it's going to be a Matt killer. They might announce it at ToyFair.
>>11714580>McFarlane's DC Multiverse died for this
>>11714666Todd couldn't fill shelves and kept burning retailers by shorting them on orders. The only real sin in retail is making customers angry and everyone kept getting their orders cancelled. Then, valuable shelf space was left empty except for dusty pegwarmers like max Mercury and vampire nightwang. DC wants kids to be able to buy DC products but Todd could only afford to make like 5,000 of each figure and kept drifting off into collectible chase platinum variant bullshit aimed at adults.Todd was handed a golden opportunity for half a decade and all he did with it was piss off you, me, Walmart, Best Buy, and Amazon to the point we're just fucking done with him. All Mattel had to do was promise to fill shelves.
>>11711882>Since the DC stuff is being handled by the guy over their WWE lines, probably pretty similar with as much reuse between the two as possible. The WWE line has basic and elite lines that reuse parts between the two and are usually in scale with eachother.Confirmed.
>>11714685The heads do look pretty decent. Better than the marvel legends style of weirdly realistic with deep nasolabial folds and red lips.
>>11714685The heads are nice but the articulation is the issue, and general plasticky feel of the outfits is the negative
>>11713615>draws a midge with elephantiasis>makes him 8 feet tallAbsolute Vodka
>>11713615https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FK-SSzs0dkw>>11713840No. Absolute is pretty typical Snyder and it feels like him slamming toys together. The art is kind of nice if you are into a more stylized look I guess.
>>11714685 This is cool but I need to know if I can put a Superman head on a MotU body so I can make stupid OCs
>>11714736Well considering these are the kids line, that's expected.
>>11714685Everyone is so handsome. The reign of ugly Mcfarlane faces is over.
Anyone know if Elongated Man's head is compatible with Sportsmaster's body? Want a proper ginger Sportsmaster for my JSA display
>>11714898Oh, nice touch. Could you try painting the head that came with sports master or is it just the masked head?
>>11713656Rumor has it that Todd had a cut off date of last Fall for new figures getting approved by DC and that Dean Cain Superman and Ryan Reynolds Green Lantern didn't make said cut off date, as Todd's office got shut down for a couple of weeks due to cops investigating Todd over the Killing Joke Joker figures that went "missing".
>>11714983Not that anon but I'm the insider who reported those facts and they're all true.
>>11714983Their offices were closed because Todd was on the Epstine list.
>>11713674>mommy mommy>mommy, someone is being mean to me on the internet, mommy>make them stop, mommy, make them stop!!!
>>11713851Someone said (last November or December?) that they found a stack of the Rebirth Batman for sale at an Ollie's or Wally or some other chain, so maybe not.Third party storefronts have the Hush and Batman listed at more than McFarlane's MSRP on Walmart and Amazon right this moment.They also have a White Knight Batman for sale but I haven't seen him in the wild or seen photos, just the mention.
I hate Superman Returns but it was the first movie I ever went on a date to and I remember buying this thing a little while afterwards. At least it wasn't as bad as the Snyder movies. Metropolis has never looked better, so I'll rewatch it with the sound off and fast forward through anything that isn't shots of the city with the John Williams theme playing on the computer. I'll try to go for it but won't go crazy buying one at triple MSRP the instant they go up on ebay.Still no word about Starman Jack. He isn't even in the background of ToyFair pics. Fuck.
What's the likelihood we'll get playsets for the 6.5 scale figures? Even just reworking the old Batcave from back in the day is due, there are entire generations that have grown up without a proper Batcave.Wishlist:- Daily Planet Rooftop- Fortress of Solitude- JLA Watchtower- Oa- Themyscira- Crime Alley (with a glossy puddle of Batman's tears from crying like a bitch)
>>11714883Not as handsome as you
>>11714828they're made to fit in with the collector line. you're going to be disappointed.
>>11715239What do you mean?
>>11714685>>11714704>>11714883>everyone so handsome. >ugly Mcfarlane faces over
Post characters you want Mattel to do
>>11714685>>11714795If might be easy to make extra green lantern's with weird MotU alien heads and a Green Lantern body too.
>>11715208>hates movie >buys merchandise good goy
>>11715305That's what happens when a professional organization takes over. Everything becomes standardized and homogenized, so bad headsculpts can't happen. They hire only the best. And they would never be deceptive and start off their line with the best sculpting and gradually get lazier to save on costs. That would betray the trust of their customers.
>>11715532i dunno what you said, but it sounded retarded.
>>11715535You might need more than 2 minutes such complex analysis, Bubba.
>>11715510its a Superman, he likes Superman, therefore he buys Superman. It makes sense.
>>11715532>posts a totally fine Annie Lennox
>>11715208No one asked for your blog dude.
>>11715510Back in 2006 it had been 20 years since a Superman movie had been made and the only tv show at the time was Smallville, who kept saying they were never going to use a costume. Returns was awful but it was the first Superman movie that'd been made since I was born.
And even though I hated the costume because the S was too small, at least it sort of looked like the suit from the comics unlike the Cavill suit and the no-diving sign symbol on that new guy's suit.Returns sucked but it was closer than anything we've gotten since or will ever get again.
>>11715589It gave us cool Microman toys to go with Batman Begins which was neat
>>11715636I remember there was some JJ Abrams movie script floating around where Lex was a Kryptonian spy and it ended with them punching each other like Neo and Agent Smith. And the Tim Burton thing with the Nic Cage and the giant spider. Returns wasn't perfect but it could have been way worse.At least it didn't end with him snapping Lex's neck.
>>11715647I dropped my pic. I'm pretty sure this is based on that movie because of the S belt.
>>11715561>posts a totally fine Clark Kent
>>11715465It would bring be endless joy for them to make a demon toy
>>11715790My friend, Todd has given you a the demon figure. Twice.
>>11715806Those were greasy
>>11715583>>11715538so what? I had a subscription to Green Lantern when I was a kid that DC sent me in shitty little bags with no backer, but I didn’t buy up the reynolds movie toys because the movie was a travesty.
>>11715465Bueno Excelente
>>11715826You just know
>>11715826To be fair the Superman figures tend to be a lot more generically Superman than the Reynolds lantern stuff. Brandon Routh was very clearly hired because he kind of looked like Reeve. So it's still just a Superman figure. Reynolds lantern shit was just.... unholy
>>11714685Hope they make a smiling Superman that doesn't look like a pedo.
>>11715038I saw some pictures of that Aquaman and he's looking forward but I bet he has that stupid flashpoint shoulder.
>>11711711Do these have some sort of rubber boots or do they really not have ankle articulation?
do you think DC will let Todd make any kind of articulated figure after 2026? Seems like a pipe dream random influencers and MT themselves seem to be discussing as a possibility. But as far as I can tell this doesn't tend to happen when licenses are lost
>>11716256I can kind of see an avenue through DC Direct for the occasional 7" figure. But it's also hard to expect Mattel to be ok with that since theyll explicitly want people to start new collections at their chosen scale, not continue an existing one, and if New figures came out in that larger scale, some may be inclined not to jump in. If not that, maybe more statues, Todd's Mods, etc.
>>11716262something tells me Todd's Mods dont sell. Not sure on the statues though
>>11716265But Todd's Rods will, The Dark Rod Rises and Last Rod of Krypton are going to be bangers!
>>11716256>>11716262I hope not if only because I want to buy a bunch of the more expensive/hard to find Multiverse figures dirt cheap when people start selling their collections to start anew with the Mattel figures.
>>11716081nope, like mattel's wwe basic line
>>11715894
>>11716305That sucks I'd rather gotten Origins DC. These will be a pain to pose.
>>11716369>These will be a pain to poseThey’re meant to be played with
>>11716262>DC DirectThis is a trademark of Warner Brothers. Why idiots keep thinking Todd bought it or owns it, is beyond me. He will lose it the same way Kenner didn't get to keep DC Super Friends or DC Super Powers, those are all Warner Consumer Products trademarks and copyrights and they aren't going to let anyone use them - so if you see it, it will be made by Mattel or not made at all, once Todd loses the license.At most, if you view his Marvel statues as replacements for the Marvel Selects Gallery Statutes by Diamond Select Toys, WB might allow Todd to make these for DC covers and characters in the same limited vein Hasbro hasn't cared about Todd doing them the past year plus. Does Mattel make statues for MOTU or anything else they license own? I have no clue since I don't care. >>11716265They sell but worse than Pops. They are also overpriced for being essentially ugly Funkos. Some of his Marvel sell and I bet some of his sports statues are selling, but this is also the shit you see on clearance even at stores like Best Buy that are not known for clearance. I actually think they can look decent but I am getting rid of all the DTS gallary shit I own now except for my Flash and maybe one other, and I can't imagine people will want 10 of these of Spider-Man or Cap because that's a lot of fucking shelf space and that's what Todd has churned out very quickly.
>>11716384Putting them into cool poses isn't playing with them?
>>11716404What 3 yr old is posing their figures in ways that an ankle articulation is necessary?
>>11716386DC Direct is managed under McFarlane, so it's what a lot of people are wondering. DC Direct used to make their own shit when Mattel was doing theirs and for the past 5 years, McFarlane has been releasing both their children toys and DC Direct's collector figures at the same time.So will DC Direct continue once Mattel takes over?Mattel supposedly has the collectors license now, but what does that even mean? Are Mezco and Bandai not allowed to make collector figures anymore? Or is Mattel just calling their more expensive "collector" figures as a marketing gimmick, releasing them in the children's toy aisle and ignoring the collector's market, which allows other companies to continue licensing it?
>>11716414the package says 4+. at that age you're definitely posing toys if that's what you're into.
>>11716417Maybe
>>11716421what 4 yr old needs ankle articulation?
>>11716369>That sucks I'd rather gotten Origins DCLike vintage toys with added articulation? What even was the first DC line? Or do you just want more articulation because collector stuff is coming next yet.>>11716404Not usually children... At least when I was a kid I had 5poa stuff that I played with and I didnt care. Even though there was GI Joe's and shit. Maybe it's different after the 90s and early 2000s but I doubt it.
>>11716427Why are you forcing children to play with toys with dollar store articulation?
>>11716441Because I hate my kids and want them to suffer a joyless patioless life.
>>11716439It was different.
>>11716445Ah so you're forcing your ancient boomer slop on them then getting angry when they hate it and you and all their friends have legos and marvel legends
>>11716441why do you think a 4 yr old brain is capable of such intricate poses?
Anyone wanting to get Brandon Routh Superman not for Superman Returns but due to Crisis on Infinite Earths? Asking because Routh was infinitely more interesting as a single dad Superman who's arch enemy was Joker not Luther and who had his own version of Death In the Family with Joker killing Lois and the staff of the Daily Planet.....
$35 is kinda high for detective chimp but the zatanna accessory almost makes it worth it
>>11716481whoops
>>11716476I hate is reuse of that lanky Donnerverse body. Someone sent me the Kingdom Come Grandpa Superman and told me to keep it when I complained AND still refunded me on eBay (and probably did a $100 claim to USPS) for that part of the auction. So I am halfway to his Crisis suit. I think it's a fucking better head than anything Mattel did but I still wish someone like CT or FondJoy would either KO or may legit licensed versions of the SooSoo Toys and other live action versions. I still wouldn't mind an Alan Rickman toy as Hawk with multiple heads and his uniform being cloth goods, because then a normal civilian body would also pass as Reacher. And definitely a Titan's Superboy, even with a soft goods Cadamus tee, so we have one that doesn't have stick figure arms and legs.
>>11716439Yes and yes, but my point is don't you think it's weird that they gave these figures double jointed knees, thigh swivels, wrist hinges, and even swappable face plates but no ankle articulation?
>>11716527Not really they had to save money somewhere.
>>11716490Someone really wants Superman to fuck them.
>>11716527>>11716654watched a walk through and interview through the display and the mattel guy called them "collector level sculpts." wouldn't be surprised to see the heads, hands, crotch, hips, thighs, and knees reused on the other line.
>>11716809The fuck does that have to do with ankles
>>11716823>why no ankles>they have to save money somewhere>money saved by tooling parts for collector line in advance and not including ankles on kids lineincredibly easy to understand man
>>11716806People who are into Superman usually relate to him because they're normal people with a special skill or talent that makes them better than the npcs around them. It's the batfags who are into the faggot shit with children with no pants running around.
Look at all this bullshit coming out that isn't Starman Jack.
>>11716845toyfair is not for things you've already seen. you're not the audience there. retailers are. starman is old news. get a grip!
>>11716845>Starman Jack>Starman Jack>Starman JackShut the fuck up already. Every fucking day you have to whine about this. I hope you never get it you stupid faggot.
>>11716849Starman Jack was supposed to ship last Fall.>>11716850Starman Jack everyday until Starman Jack ships motherfucker
>>11716851Every day you whine is another day he gets delayed. Cunt.
>>11716852He'll ship eventually. Without me all you have is debates about ankles. You screech at me like a retarded cunt but without me your existence has no purpose.
>>11716845Whoa look at that goatee, Todd is lookin sassy
>>11716851What if only 20 were made and given to mcfarlane toys' high performers as a bonus?
>>11716858You can meet him at the Zolocon toy convention in Valley Forge, Pennsylvania at the end of the month. Some anons have said they're going. Some might even bring an extra Power Girl they've been keeping mint to get signed by the Toddfather.
>>11716862...who's selling first?
>>11716855Prince Gavyn is the ONLY STARMAN worth ding danged dagum.
>>11716864Man, I'd love to hobnob with the elite power brokers of dc gen. Maybe have a pbr outside with them, on a wooden platform attached to a building of course.
>>11716845>>11716858
>>11716873Patio meetup when?
>>11716864I looked it up and it really is at Valley Forge Casino. What are the chances the nickname of the resident e-celeb in DC gen would share the nickname with a con DC's perilous purveyor of Power Girls is going to be holding court at?
>>11717012
>>11717014
>>11717016
>>11717012I don't understand their login in releasing this. Are there that many people who like Death Metal designs? For the average person who is ok with it or thinks it looks cool, Todd's version was good enough and so only individuals with tons of money to spend who also love DNMetal will buy this. How many can there possibly be?
>>11717021*logic
>>11716996Still being buck broken huh you stupid little fag?
>>11716864Will Todd really be there or is it just a Mcfarlane Toys booth?
>>11717097It's just a booth as far as I know.
>>11716996Bruh, if I could make it I would. Never been to a toy show and I think zoloworld figures look pretty neat so it'd be nice to see some in person. I don't think this casino has a patio though so it'd have to be an off site gathering.
>>11716855What if McFarlane puts out Starman but without ankle articulation?
>>11717187You know collectors. They will buy it anyway.
>>11716843>children with no pantsWell this >>11716845 man released this toy ....
>>11717351Cocainiac Robin is based though.
>>11717351Legends of The Dark KnightHot Glue Robin> Cover him in Goo™ for hours of fun
>>11717607Bought two for $8Using him for both - as cocaine victim in warehouse display (sugar was a bitch and talcum is worse than dust) so had to give it up.BUT purrfect as bukkake boy toy at the Kenner Hall of Justice play set.
>>11718197Please tell me you have pics of these displays
>>11718197You should have the bukkake guy eating a biscuit, I've heard that's a thing when you goof around with the fellas
I can't wait for Big Aquaman.
>>11718885sonic as flash is still so strange to me, i know the power type fits but the color of red is off putting to me because he should be blue or have some blue shown.
>>11718892Yeah, I see your point. Just swap knuckles and sonic, or is there some lore with super sonic that would complicate that with die hard sonic fans?
>>11718885So is it supposed to be Barry or Wally? I remember the last one being sort of vague but DC loves to force Barry into shit even if he's acting like Wally. Barry sucks.
>>11718892Unironically why put him next to blue lantern flash.
>>11718960what kind of autism is that picture supposed to be
>>11719030gotta go fast
SW6 Cosmic Boy arrived today! Took a photo of him, Lightning Lad, and Superman and privately lamenting that we probably won't get another Legion figure for another 15 years...
I miss doodlefag. Did the boomer drown?
>>11719130Just repaint a Hawkgirl to give me Dawnstar already
>>11719130You are missing Star Boy though
>>11719130my walmart has those and I've thought about getting them as shelf buddies for a saturn girl, but eh, the printed details don't do it for me.I'm bringing an extra power girl to zolocon next weekend in case todd is there.hoping they have some of the elite spawns with the red, it'd be cool to pick up a spawn from the mcfarlane toys booth.maybe they'll have some starman jacks.
>>11719372I'd be ok with these founding father figures IF the articulation was improved. Does shadowhawk have an unmasked head?
>>11719433Not sure, but I'm on board for Hellboy and Witchblade.
>>11719473I'd love to see mignola styled batman that isnt a statue to go with the hellboy if Todd has time.
>>11719479Yeah I'm trying not to overhype it because Todd obviously lurks here and delays figures I like, but yeah, it's you know, cool and stuff. Probably won't post about it daily or anything.
Who does the articulation cuts on the figures for mcfarlane? I'm so curious what their process is when making toys.
Get a fucking life dude holy shit
>>11719550His arms won't go inwardly but there's some extra room laterally, so it isn't like there's no point. Also don't forget that Larsen had a bit part in this figure's approvals, it's entirely possible that he wanted more meat there for a more full pec to better match his art.
Anyone recognize this? The listing claims its a Mattel DC Universe of Wonder Woman but I'm not seeing it on Figure Realm or the one Wonder Woman fan site that listed her toys, but it's badly out of date now that I look it over. And if you don't recognize it, can you suggest something like it. I want a female face with long hair, that fits a 5-5.5 to 6.5 body.
>>11719572I'm not gonna google it but isn't that the Elektra head from the ML 2-pack with Ronin pre Return of Marvel Legends.
>>11719573Wouldn't surprise me, asshole who listed it was rude because I asked about the paint in the back of the head. So I just stopped talking to him. But I'm find all kinds of mistake on fodder (someone called a Witcher head a Marvel Legends Superman head).But Elektra helps, I can look for that, so thank you! Or just try female marvel legends.
>>11719550Todd gets drunk and does it himself
>>11719473Oh yeah, witchblade. I had her figure from that one line with ripclaw and madman. I think it was toy biz?
Toys
Picked up the Rosscusive Justice League Endless Winter Aquaman with eyes forward action and "we fucked up the mold for one finger and are still reusing it" details.
>>11719745Overall it's an improved fig over the original release, but the flashpoint emblem on his shoulders ruin it. If I see one for cheap I may pick it up just for the head as I already have the original release.
>>11716490Oh so we're getting a classic and n52 superman fig from mattel? I only care about classic designs but it's cool to have options.
>>11719745We're not here to wage war. Stop trying to start fights.
>>11719750What the fuck are talking about?
>>11719745Shit I could use that head
>>11719755bot malfunction
>>11719765>jarret
>>11719746>flashpoint emblem on his shoulders ruin itJust swap it with the original release arm
>>11719746>>11719762I didn't notice till after I took the picture but one pupil is bigger than the other.
>>11719745he has no guns to hold
>>11719762said the minister to the sister
>>11719768>>11719765But Starman/Zatanna/Powergirl-sun IS certainly here to start battles & wage warfare Attention hoes live for that chaos
>>11718885Can't wait for big Selina and big KaraAnd I am still waiting for Target to stop being ducks and clearance that Darkseid multipack.Fuck if I'm going to lay some eBay flipper $30 or more for him when I don't want the lil hedgehogs. >>11719013Surprisingly looks good.I have the other blue lantern Flash and I still don't want those things in my house.>>11719175Star MAN, thank you.Wasn't there also a Saturn Girl in the same set of announcements as Zee, Ralph and the rest of those. I can't even remember when that was? The Walmart event?NYCC?
>>11719864I think he's a stealth shill
>>11719941Holy shit that's in perfect condition. That's amazing. I had the blue chrome Batman when I was a kid and so many cool chrome toys. Or electroplated whatever but I'm always cautious to try to find one second hand because of flaking.
>>11719868>Surprisingly looks good.I need to get Red Lantern Cyborg Superman and and Star Sapphire Wonderwoman to go with Knuckles and Sonic because they weirdly match. White Lantern Hal too because he's Silver/grayish/white like Silver.
>>11715465>>11715790These two and Lobo will be excellent when they eventually do a Masters of the Universe crossover line on the MotU bodies like they've done with WWE, TMNT, and Thundercats.
>>11719984>Red Lantern Cyborg SupermanThe old one by Mattel is ugly as sin, Todd's looks a bit better in comparison. I don't remember if the DC Direct one is better or not but people tend to overcharge for those and sometimes it's worth it for the sculpt but others, it's not.
>>11719941Holy vac metal, Batman!
Who sets these prices anyway? This is basically the Zatanna + D.Chimp release.Is there a cabal of price fixers in the toy industry to have prices so closely align?
>>11719941Had this mother fucker as a kid, he was great. In fact, I may actually still have it now. My mom cleaned out her house and dropped off a bunch of tubs of my old figures. I haven't gone through them, they've just been chilling in my garage, I really should go through them one of these days.
>>11720228Weren't these Target Exclusives? If so, that means BBTS had to order them directly for MSRP from Target so they marked it up. They do this with all exclusives, this isn't new.
>>11720254I don't know why BBTS would even bother doing that
>>11720255BBTS plays long games like that, they carry EVERYTHING, so a year down the line when someone wants it and they're long sold out it's there for straglers.
>>11720259They aren't doing it with SHMA anymore. Destroyah had 2 in stock last i looked
>>11720255To make money? Why do you guys think that these companies are doing this out of the good of their hearts?
>>11719922Nah I joined their discord and realize I hate everyone who works for McFarlane Toys. They all have the same slimy, gross energy of a used car salesman. For better or worse I have no problem speaking my mind and wouldn't in good conscience be able to hype something like doll capes and unpainted backs, or artificial scarcity and gimmick elite editions meant to exploit customers.
>>11720267seems like a bad way to make money given how long the shit has to sit on your warehouse to make money on it
>I work in marketing
>>11720326You're dumb.
even by the low standards of DC gen, this has been a terrible thread
>>11720312Doll capes are very good when they have wires. Doll capes are really the future of action figures because they add to the articulation by allowing kneeling and other non-standing poses or flying poses.Plastic capes are very limited on toys, especially collector toys that are supposed to be high articulation, yet so many of the joints become mostly useless with plastic capes.But you see even Mattel's kids line has doll capes. You won't be able to escape the future. Even Marvel Legends is catching on and realizing they can do doll capes to raise perceived value>>11720344Warehouse space is far better spent on more valuable product than toys. Right now they should expand out from their toy business into other areas, as it is a sector losing profit, as Walmart and Target know.
>>11720254>>11720255>>11720228The first wave and the Darkseid multi-pak were exclusive. But they are now also at Walmart, I hadn't seen that WW at any Target (but the Flash is definitely a great get and I got him on sale a while back) so I picked her up at a Game Stop in the same mall.>>11720326>how long the shit has to sit on your warehouseIt's a warehouse in the middle of nowhere in bumfuck Ohio or Minnesota or where the fuck near Chicago they are, since their expedited packages come from the cheap (non-O'Hare) airport package hub. They probably own the land and the building. I doubt three cartons of Sonic and other similar plastic crap take can sit in sealed boxes takes up that much space. It's only when they are down to half a carton that it becomes wasteful.>>11720445>far better spent on more valuable productLike what? Toasters and blenders?Toothpaste and dog food?You're silly, anon. They'd be Amazon in that case. At most, they could possibly expand their comic book business or get into some of GameStop's business, sell more related collectible shit - but they already do that, since they are into tabletop gaming and the Poke trading cards.
>>11720516You know exactly what they should be stocking in their warehouses instead of toys. Toys for data centers.
>>11720536Data centers need additional infrastructure nearby. Excess power, the warehouse would need better and different insulation in at least different parts of it that would house electronics.Be serious, son.Unless you mean Barbie play set data centers.
You lil bros are legit retarded.
>>11720551Fag
>>11720328>Cool, I did shipping for several years and quite enjoyed myself looking back at it. Daily stress to make service but whatever.
Anyone recognize this? eBay listing claims it's Mattel but they are overcharging for what these are.I know Mezco made some and bought that piece from someone dumping accessories a few years back, but like the idea of different colors.Reverse image claims it's LEGO but the bricks don't shine like that. The other reverse image engine coughed up some sort of large light?, but those are bigger than these scale suggest and just come in green.
I would unironically actually buy a Mcfigure of these two. Smallville was a huge part of my teenage years.
>>11720571they're dilithium crystals from the old playmates star trek line>>11720580samepicked up a spawn today while grocery shopping for my parents and dug out my dad's old spawn he's kept mint for thirty yearswas going to wait until zolocon but the spawn was just sitting there and I've been in this game long enough to know you never pass up an opportunity like that
>>11720259These went up on amazon too. It's weird.
>>11720592>left by a window to bleach for decades>mint
>>11720604the best part is I remember he only let me have the burnt head version because he said that masked version was rare and he was going to make a shit ton of money off it one day.I showed him this one comes with both heads and he said, "yeah I already have a Spawn. the original."I love his boomer energy so much.
It's kind of wild how little /toy/ knows about how basic fucking retail works. I thought a lot of this stuff was just common knowledge.
>>11720617toy used to be pretty knowledgable and actually used to good first hand source about this shit.Now there's too many zoomes and third worlders crowding /toy/ with their weird ideas and never actually being inside an (american) store. They're as bad as the shut ins and asspies used to be.
>>11720544Are you seriously telling me SSDs, ram sticks and HDDs are going to need any different air conditioning/heating than a toy warehouse? These products only need to be climate controlled when on. I'm not talking about turning BBTS into a functioning data center.
>>11720617Most of /toy/ just imports or buys online and knows little about brick and mortar retail anymore
>>11720654There aren't any more of those in stock anymore. Warehouses won't have more until 2028. I just panic bought another 4TB drive right before Amazon sold out. I've picked up 12TB of HDD and 2TB of SSD since this whole thing started.
>>11720660do you think they'll be back by 2028?
>>11720662Not really
How do I get my Dick smaller? I was getting around to modding my Tempest cause his head sits really low and I was comparing it to Blacqualad who has the same body. I hoped I could just swap neck pegs but they're the same, the placement of sockets in the heads are different. So I looked at canon character heights and found this was done intentionally because Garth is 5'10 and Jackson is 6'1. So I looked at my Titans shelf and noticed my Dick towers over everyone. He is only supposed to be 5'10 himself but they used that flashpoint superman body 6'3. How do I take 5 inches off my Dick without cutting it up?
>>11720682>How do I get my Dick smaller?walk in your parents having sex
>>11720592>dilithium crystals Well, what do you know. Sometimes you assholes aren't all useless fuckalls. Thanks, anon. I owe you a nice large cold beer of your choice. >>11720580I would buy a real two pack as well. They really should just go ahead and make the same kind of six pack of Supermen, using '78, Routh, Henry, Corenswet and either Tom and Tyler or Tom and Dean. This slow slow drip is just annoying.
>>11720847I'm so happy I get a chance at buying the Christopher Reeves figure again.
>>11720871I hope it gets delayed for a year and everyone at McFarlane Toys ignores your questions about it
>>11720877kek I can see this happening.
Al and Zatanna are teaching Ro Laren how to do black magic
>>11720877I hope Mcfarlane loses the license to make these toys..
>>11719794Does now.
>>11720252You now realize you want this flying car with a clear display stand, so that it looks like it's flying. And who would not want it? It's compatible with the Batman Forever Batcave.

I can't wait for them to release the Hush Superman. I almost preordered it off AliExpress but didn't trust a seller with so fee reviews.>earlyWe jumped threads @ 285, 295, 300 last year repeatedly.

Will Mattel do more vehicles than McFarlane?
>>11721114How many vehicles did McFarlane do? We already have 2 in the kids line.
>>11721119For multiverse? Around 40, mostly Batman vehicles.
