Starman status?
Which Batman are you?
>>11733911cancelled
>>11733998Bro needs some fiber. If you've got strain that hard then you've got some serious issues.I'll be white Latern bowel movement.
>>11733998top right when larfleeze announcedbottom left seven months later with no new larfleeze update
>>11733998https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gDWUnmBSL4E
what happened to the "Kelly jones" fig from the leaks? The troika figure is surprisingly nice in hand and now im jonesing for more no pun intended
>>11734041I learned long ago that anticipating any different style comic batman in this line is fruitless. It will be on 1 of 3 bucks
>>11734041I hate long eared batman
>>11733877Is that one of Todd's Paeg Pouchers?
>>11734041Idk, but as >>11734049 mentioned it will be on one of few bodies which is lame. I know it's just how I remember his version of Batman but he seemed bigger and stockier than the typical Batman. (Insert bitching about parts re use here)
>>11734006>>11734041>no Larfleeze>no Kelly Jones' BatC'mon Todd, time is running out and my bros need those figures. Me, I'm pretty happy with Damian Batman.
>>11734041If it's not on a new body with crazy abs detail, it's not worth it.
>>11734061Beyond rocks the long ear look so Bruce doesn't have to. He looks better with it too
Do you have any backup teams for in case something happens to your main shelfers?
>>11734208I love the scene where someone smashed him into the ground head first and his ears got stuck
>>11734264I've been wanting to take some pics of my piece meal teams. Like right now I've got a shabby birds of prey themed team out.
>>11734271kek i dont remember that but i wanna see...can you link a clip?
>>11733911Today's the day. They're bringing VF out of the basement for the stream reveal.
>>11734637I hope they are wiping him down, he is prone to skin rashes and I don't want to get him back all bloated and oozing. Just sprinkle some talcum on him please Todd.
>>11734637"Starman Jack Ruby Chase Platinum exclusive to Japan! Preorders go live at noon Tokyo time!" Just as ValleyForge reaches the top of the stairs Todd slams the door shut while shouting, "Sassy! Sassy!"
Why do you guys talk like such queens?
let’s fucking GOOOOOO
where’s Gangbuster
>>11734061go away snyder
>>11734727VF must be so happy
>>11734727Does he have the zodiac on his back?
EWWW
They are putting out some ugly headsculpts these days
>>11734727What is wrong with that torso cut?
WHERE THE FUCK IS GANGBUSTER, TODD
>>11734760that is fucking terrible. wtf.
>>11734785Well. I'm disappointed.
>>11734792you should be lucky there is that much unique sculping there. I can't believe it. I don't recognize most of those parts
>a proper Mongul>a proper Lobo>Gangbuster>Black CanaryPretty happy desu senpai
>>11734806Black Canary is screaming. She wants your manager.
>>11734807>multiple faceplates>softgoods jacketNot sure what you’re bitching about
>>11734809nta, but you know all those faces are going to be bad.
>>11734727The torso cut makes him look like a lesbian with saggy tits.
>>11734762Fine man,fine. I'll get another Batman variant. Whatever. Shit, I'll just add to my rainbow, yellow and bullseye Batman collection. >>11734765The head is disappointing. I want a bulky Batman but I don't want a DKR old man Batman. >>11734760This is a doodler creation right? Like some off brand knock off ai made this? >>11734785Those constructs are lame. >>11734806Sounds neat, Gangbuster is a red platinum I guess? I'll have to get black canary so I can actually have a birds of prey team, she's a vital member of the crew. I'm using spoiler as a blonde haired stand in currently.>>11734815Idk, baz and Mr terrific and huntress have decent enough face plates.
>>11734822Nta but huntress' faceplates were dull. That's why i was able to get her on sale for $17
>>11734822Im kind of surprised people are still buying the line. Like why are people buying the multi colored batmen? They are just to make more money off molds that they already have. I would punish that behavior heavily.
>>11734830I was going to buy Christopher Reeves because I missed it but everytime I saw the head in the last thread picture I realized it's not very good and it turned me off from it.
>>11734756yes
>>11734727Found this funny, the creator of starman hates this kek.
>>11734760>>11734784>>11734822>off brand knock off aiI'll stick with my original flavor DC Direct Kara
>>11734831sometimes you need some other people who are outside the line and dont have bias to snap you out of a line. A few years ago I would've bought the edge cases in this reveal, like Larfleeze or OMAC. Now it's just No.
>>11734747I hope Gangbuster comes with an alternate Superman head.
>>11734809Her hips are unlikely to move well at all given what I am seeing here.
>>11734894That is the sluttiest slut whore slut hooker looking thing ever
>>11734895
Holy shit, Valley Forge was right about soft goods fishnets looking like shit.
>>11734880both of these look like shit
>>11734897Anon, that's pubic hair
>>11734901>crazy imbecilic rando spouting lies because they can't afford their own toys or even their own patio, politely offers useless opinion
>>11734760>reusing the awful mortal kombat female bodyNice clown shoes, Supergirl>>11734765What do you mean "these days" they've been putting out horrible head sculpts since the beginning
>>11734933Nah McFarlane has been kicking ass since day one, way better than the baby crap Mattel is pushing out
>>11734926ARRUGH YOU RETARDD IM MADD
>>11734935Holy bait batman
>>11734891the way to do it would be a castoff chest piece
>>11734041probably saving it for the stream later this month
>>11734979toooob arrrms
>>11734760>>11734785>>11734894>line is already dead>now they start making fan favorites and women rather than a billion batmansI can't stand Todd McFarlane
Jesse Quick when
They finally let me escape.>>11734727The cosmic staff looks so good. I was scared this might be a doll coat situation with no accessories and you'd have to buy Stargirl to get the staff.>>11734897>>11734894This is everything I was afraid the Zatanna figure would be.>>11734806I'll be getting the Mongul 2-pack and Lobo, and have Bane on preorder. Maxima might be in the next Superman movie so I'm still hoping she might get a figure. It isn't too late to release a Phantom Lady and Doll Man set.
>>11734868Unfathomably based. I could see him either liking the first figure with the removable goggles and lightup staff, or a high quality statue. Or maybe he hates merch in general.
>>11734935>>11734938
We know you've always been here. Stop talking to yourself and pretending anyone cares about you.
>>11734992No they're still making a billion Batmans too. Scroll up there's 6 or 7.
>>11734894>>11734897Have they shown off the platinum yet?
>>11735023>Maxima might be in the next Superman movieNot might she IS
Want Larfleeze and Nicholson Joker. After that I think I'm good.
>>11734894Cool, a jacket for animal man.
>>11735023>>11735026It's bad enough you shit up this and so many other OPs for the past two yearsGo The Fuck Away Stop shitting up these threads
>>11734760>>11734880I can't believe it's real but it is Vigilante looks cool though, Id like one.
>>11735023Glad you're back, king.
>>11735169Fuck off
>>11735035>faggot cant tell when he's being mocked>doubles down with boomer facebook memes
>>11735169
>>11735188Do I wanna blow raspberries on that belly?
>>11734992Larfleeze is a fan favorite? Also that supergirl looks much worse than other female releases lately
>>11735294He is. But not that version. Larfleeze was way hotter in his own comic.
>>11735188I've heard of a 6 pack but a facepack?
Zatanna didn't sell out on Amazon. Were we fools for thinking her a desirable figure?
>>11735338Yes
>>11735340Then Black Canary is likely the same. Shall we wait for a deal?
>>11735338I think Todd overproduced her knowing she'd sell. Maybe he produced a little too many. Websites kept getting restocked after she sold out and Mcfarlane 9/10 never has restocks unless it's a rerelease.
>>11735403That pose is now iconic
>>11735360Todd also needs the money. Dealing with Valley Forge probably caused even his hard cord Digital Scam Discord henchmen to want to blow their brains out and they demanded raises.
>>11735294>Larfleeze is a fan favorite?The skittle corp used to be big.
>>11735502We used to live in a society
>>11735294He's fun, lot of personality.
>>11735502I miss this era of DC like you wouldn't believe. Johns GL. Morrison's Batman. Comics were better in the 2000s. Except for Identity Crisis. We like to pretend that never happened.
>>11735524I don't know that I'd say it's my favorite era but there was a lot of stuff coming out that still managed to be good despite the big 2's major blunders
>>11735524>Morrison's BatmanI miss this too, batman and deadpool was a small taste of that. We also had dini on the books too.
DickBats was a brief joy
>>11735528Batman and Deadpool was such a bitter sweet read for me. I miss when comics were good.
>>11735536I think DC's kind of okay lately. Not so much this KO stuff but readable.
>>11735225That belly would blow raspberries on you.
>>11734894So how long do we think before that jacket starts deteriorating?
>>11734979It's dated, but this is still my favorite Batgirl figure. None of the others have had a face sculpt that pretty.
>>11734992Todd is growing old,he needs to retire and move on so someone can fix his mistakes and bring back the golden area of McFarlane but we can't have nothing great to come.Also it feels like Everytime y'all make a DC thread it's always shit on McFarlane,stop it please,this is why y'all are ungrateful insufferable babies (Half of y'all) who can't grow the fuck up and move on they're just action figures they're not gonna be perfect.Todd may be a dick at himself but he is still a human being even if you hate his questionable decisions that's who he is.i don't agree with his "Females don't sell" excuse.That was back in the 90s and is extinct.Can't wait for the angry anti McFarlane haters to read the 2nd paragraph.
>>11735691>Females don't sellvideo games don't sell with female protagonists>OH BUT SAMUSwears a mask the entire game, and other m which was made in mind to fully show case her female side with flash backs is extremely hated
>>11735691I have such a love/hate for todd, as a kid his toys were really great(mgs and the anime lines and even spawn). But he just couldn't decide with his toys if he wanted statues or action figures, and back then I was blind sided by the great sculpts and accesories even though I remember being dissatisfied with the articulation. And thats when kaiyodo showed up and showed me what great toys could be in the future, hence what we get from imports today.I guess what I'm trying to say is, if todd commited to the action figure side instead of statues, he'd be what yamaguchi is now.
>>11735702have you considered how much of a faggot you are for having written this down and continually writing essays about this stupid fucking hobby? you need introspection when it comes to playing with children's toys?
>>117357063 sentences is an essay to you? Read something else other than a comic you retard.
>>11735187>imbecile can't tell he's being mocked>doubles down with zoom zoom tiktok memes
>>11735706>essaysREAD A FUCKING BOOK!
>>11734897Doubt Mattel is gonna make booty dat good.
>>11735692>video games don't sell with female protagonistsAh, yes. Tomb Raider, Nier Automata, Stellar Blade, Resident Evil, and Horizon. All famously poor sellers.
>>11735692The female has to be hot for the game to have a chance. That's the first hurdle. Secondary to that, the game has to be fun.
Is Lego allowed here?
>>11733998Which Batman is getting the best head?
>>11735706>Anon is too brain rotted to read a short paragraphWow, you guys really are the first generation in history to be legitimately stupider than your parents. Impressive.
>>11735829It's literally being documented that kids are becoming less capable than the previous generations. I say it's focus on testing but I'm not trying to get off topic.
>>11735781>>11735793>>11735829>>11735849Look at all these goddamn uncs needing to continually write and share their goddamn fucking feelings over this hobby LMAO incel general around here no surprise given how often this thread cries over the success of McFarlane
Anybody else counting down the days?
>>11735860You're trying too hard.
>>11735880>NOOOO TODDY NOOOOOOO NOOOO SIX INCH NOOOOOOOOO TODDY NOOOO NOOOOOOOO IT HAS TO BE SIX INCH NOOOOOpeak uncel
>>11735882Way too hard lmao.
>>11735691Anon, Todd hasn't had much to do with thr DC line for 2 years now. Look no further than the Hasbro style livestreams for who he has delegated power to
>>11735849>>11735829They aren't being required to read or write essays, certainly not properly. Which is why they are required to take English Composition in remedial form in they manage to get into a real post secondary educational institution. Sadly, because I do think testing needed to be improved, some of that is at fault from as far back as No Child Left Behind, where the schools were forced to teach to pass those tests, not to teach so students learned.
>>11735915No Child Left Behind is absolutely one of the root causes for the current education system. Teaching to the lowest common denominator only leads to those who don't need to be taught that way into receiving a lesser education than they otherwise would have.
Why did McFarlane Toys decide to go with the business model of super 7 just as super 7 proved it didn't work?
>>11735926why can't Americans make their own toys?
>>11735934Not cost effective. No profit in it given the wages that would need to be paid.
>>11735871Nah, I already have my definitive Dick.
>>11735961nice dick.wish dc would give us a mullet ver, gives him a more identifiable silhouette.
>>11735961Based, This is my Dick as well.
>>11735882Copying NOOOOOO guy nowdesperation is a sad thing to watch
>>11735815I shit you not, i saw a youtube video last week where in the middle of them calling out some other animation youtuber they were complaining that someone posted the alvin in the chipmunks "whos getting the best head?" meme in a discord chat and called said meme as CP. Fucking zoomers are all nepuritan faggots
>>11735964I wish the toy animated versions bird logo didnt stick out so much
>>11735934Well Todd is Canadian so I think you'd be better off asking why Canada can't make their own toys. Eh? Let's get some poutine fellas!
>>11736004Hey, at least Kinder Surprise toys aren't illegal over here.
>>11736004>>11736008do you uncs ever get bored thinking up these samey come backs? go die in Iran for Israel
this is the worst general.
>>11736012>>11735882>>11735860>unc>unc>unczoom zoom, get a new songyour old one is tiresomeboringtedious even
>>11736039NTA but there's nothing wrong with being an unc. We grew up in the last good time western civilization had to offer before it all started going downhill. He's just jealous that his childhood was fake and gay.
>>11736012GET OFF MY PATIO!
>>11735871>Anybody elseNAH, I also have my favorite DickI hate the crotch dangle on this - so similar to the one in the Neca Noir.That mask does the figure no favors. Maybe if it came with multiple unmasked heads and one had a domino you could slap on.Honestly, you couldn't get me to give you even a burner email address or some such, to win one of these for free.
>>11734785>Larfleeze.That's mine.
>>11736044This is the most paint on a McFarlane in years
>>11736044So this is his little friend we're supposed to say hello to.
>>11734775
>>11736085iron guy
>>11736088is todd sos'ing to marvel to give him the license?
For the faggot still insisting that the kids team and collector team are the same for dc figures at Mattel here’s the source proving you’re wrong. https://www.youtube.com/live/MAun1-I4MRg?si=yerE2tR7JTJa_-p6
we have to stop matt
>>11733998>>11736113Better than Todd sharts
>>11736114shoulders too low, detailed face doesnt match his boblus cartoon muscles, shitty thin cape>its for kiiiiidsi know what i was into when i was a kid and it wasnt shit like this
>>11736117We know what was in you as a kid faggot
>>11736099steve ozer is over all action figures at mattel, and again, this confirms that he is in fact involved with both lines. funny enough, every time i said he'd be doing the collector line, someone (probably you since you're still seething about this) kept insisting that he was only doing the kids one. thanks for proving me right again, buddy.
>>11736119>ur gaysaid the man justifying toys for retarded infants
you faggots are mentally ill
>>11736120Nta but I just watched the video and bald dude explicitly says he doesn’t have anything to do with the kids line. >>11736122This.
>>11736122>>11736121
Just lurk here and don’t post because this fucking loser will immediately start spamming you with insults if you post anything that isn’t powergirl, starman jack or phantom lady. It’s just not worth your time to engage.
Gonna do some reposting from the last threadGreen lanterns are going to have metallic paint
>>11736131His weapon rack of constructs has a gun. It was implied multiple characters will have guns in their racks.
>EVERY ONES IS A BIG POOPY GAY RETARD AUUUGGHHHH
This is the flashes weapon rack full of translucent lightning effects
>>11736137Another look at flash in hand. Everything I’m posting seems to be fully finished production runs.
The first in hand look at deathstroke. He was the only announced figure that was absent at toyfair.
>>11736126he is literally "Manager of Global Brand Marketing for Action Figures at Mattel, Inc. since November 2017... oversee[ing] product development and marketing initiatives for core and collector portfolios." he's not assigning sculptors to jobs but he's still involved. he even says he helps in that video!
>>11736140The back showing how his sword can be stored on him. No other accessories were shown from his weapons rack.
A full body look of the robin that comes with the cycle
>>11736141you getting a hard on fight now spamming all this crap of some ugly mutt?
>>11736085>Loses Lois to clark>Loses his lottery ticket to Bibo>Loses his legs Being Gangbuster is suffering
>>11736144A demonstration of the jokerized mask that holds on with friction. The mask comes packed with the joker. The joker figure seems the most packed out with a weapons rack, “chatter blaster” and 3 jokerized mask for each of the other figures in his wave Batman flash and robin. Green lantern and Superman come packed with jokerized masks of themselves too.
>>11736131Oh hey, it's Ryan Doell. Gotham City Tonight then?
>>11736151Yes
A look at Superman posed and unposed
Initially I thought the jokerized masks came with jokerized Batman due to the placement of the accessories at the toy fair display. I was wrong.
>>11736153Is this some seperate line for children? Why no ab articulation?
Both single releases of Batman. I originally thought the all black Batman came with the Batmobile like how the cycle comes with a robin but that isn’t the case. The Batmobile doesn’t come with a figure.
>>11736085yeah. I’m so happy about it that I’m not even asking about the weird printed on goggles, or wtf is going on with his mouth.
>>11736157Yes. No ab articulation problem cheaper and easier to produce. They didn’t even bother with ankles. Oddly enough they opted for double jointed knees but I think the reason behind that was for vehicles. They want this to survive rough play.
>>11736131Some one in the chat is dogging our boy Todd. Shameful of @jer_just_jer
>>11736166Based jer
>>11736122Fucking this
>>11736160If these had double elbows, ankles and a swivel at the waist they’d be on par with legends that are $27+ at this point. These are what $12? People should stop bitching about these kids figures and should start bitching about how badly Hasbro is ripping people off.
>>11736172>If these had double elbows, ankles and a swivelLotta qualifiers there.
>>11736085It's like someone knew the history of mcfarlane toys, knew they used to use real chains and metals, but had no idea how to make the plastic part of the figure look in any way competent
>>11736172They do swivel at the waist dumbass
>>11736172Weird not to add ankles for the stake of stability but I guess not having them is one less point of possible error from rough play
>>11736122fucking epiccccc upvote
>>11736184it's just cost-cutting. double knees and thigh swivels aside, it's the same articulation setup as mattel's basic wwe line. they started with ankle articulation and bicep swivels/single elbows, before removing the ankles and switching to a swivel/hinge elbow.
>>11736157>>11736162Lets all admit it, no kids are going to buy these figures. They're just going to be bought by 30+ year old men just like the Playmates Power Rangers line
>>11736195As a 33 year old with 2 kids I will be buying these yes. You understand children don’t have money right?
>>11736172How many times do we need to tap the sign?>>11735672
>>11736197Kids do have money, they have "allowances" unless their parents are insane or poor. I am now skeptical you have kids.
>>11736201your parents must suck dick, so when your birthday came up, they made you buy your gifts with your allowance?
>>11736201Why on earth are you giving kids an allowance? Taking out the trash once a week? Picking up their own shit they leave lying around? I think you got it backwards, it's poor or insane parents that give kids money because they can't take care of them and their needs properly so they leave the responsibility to them.
>>11736213
>>11736201The only time a parent should give a young child money is when it’s to be used to buy things for other people like Christmas presents for their siblings.
>>11736199Why are you pretending like toys are the only products outpacing the rate of inflation? Toys don't exist in a vacuum. Housing, food, necessities, and many other products are all increasing well beyond the inflation rate.
>>11736122>>11736135
>>11736212No one said gifts don't exist. Just that allowances do exist. My statement merely contradicts "You understand children don’t have money right?" >>11736213>>11736223>Why on earth are you giving kids an allowance?You do not have kids or you live in the third world. Here are the stats:>The survey revealed that nearly 8 out of 10 parents give their kids an allowance in the U.S. https://www.snbonline.com/about/news/the-importance-of-allowing-children-to-learn-about-money-through-their-allowance
>>11736235As a parent I can tell you that stat is some propaganda like every other survey
>>11736235Not to go off topic but considering most of the US population lives paycheck to paycheck I seriously doubt that survey. You just can’t trust those things because most of them are funded and propagated for some reason or other. I know it’s anecdotal but I don’t know another parent that gives their child an allowance in my middle class neighborhood.
>>11736244>>11736239This. You want to validate a claim? Just pay to have someone bullshit survey conducted and then it’ll get cited ad nauseam as its own source.
>>11736239>>11736244>>11736247Not unexpected that /toy/ denies statistical data baselessly and substitutes their own preferred reality instead.
>>11736249Lemming
>>11736249graphs and statistics are the most manipulable forms of propaganda out there. t. sociology and physiology major
>>11736257Not nearly as effective as screaming your head off and denying any evidence in favor of what you believet. Social Media Major
>>11736195I'll probably get a few for the nephews. They wanted some figures but didn't have the cash to blow on the other ones.
>>11736244You keep saying this in multiple thread like it means anything
>>11736273That’s literally the first and only time I’ve said that
>>11736279I've seen that statement posted, almost word for word, multiple times.
>>11736285Ok
>>11736285Yeah but it's different people posting it. t. a person who has posted it in the past but didn't post it this time
>>11736114
>>11736121>>11736122>>11736127GIRLS, GIRLS, GIRLS
>>11736331You're getting a bit gay with this posting anon.
>>11736134>>11736131I understand guns are important to some of you - and why - and there are some circumstances where a gun construct could and would be useful but this is not much different to the lightening effects that Todd has made people suffer through since the first two years.While it's more a Flash figure thing, McFarlane has used the same shitty lightening effects in their Black Adam and Shazam figures, anytime some character has even the most tangential connection - like the Electric Red and Blue Supermen, etc. But it's almost always the same shit, reductive, duplicative and boring as fuck.When I saw the female retro carded Electro at clearance recently, $4.99, grabbed it, just to strip the different looking effects from that. If I end up clearing $2-4 dollars for the toy on eBay, after fees, well I've wasted more money on worse effects (including Todd's Greasy Rubbery slop) and other fodder. At least when I added it to a Flash figure, it LOOKED fucking interesting in my display.
>>11736331
>>11736353>ohh I'm getting all worked up thinking about toddy And need to cry about ityou're a mentally ill faggot and have issues with children's toys
>>11735023You're not allowed to like Todd's Toys. No no.
>>11736138Barry Allen sucks
>>11736353I wanted her, for some reason I like legends ladies. You ever notice people just camping out to spam the same tired song and dance? Remember the anon convinced we were bots? I wonder what would happen if they got together and had babies. The next generation of DC Gen has start some how. And what better way to continue the fandom than with our own home grown spazzes?
>>11736363I agree. Wally is the one true flash.
>>11736368Jay Garrick is pretty cool, but they don't really try to glaze him the same way they try to insist Barry is the legend and he has his spot as old Flash that doesn't fuck with anything so he works well in the group. Bringing Barry back was just a shit show.
I hope we get a reboot of super powers in 5.5 inch similar to the motu core figures. They’d probably become my main line.

>>11736244Most of the US population also spends beyond their means and are tens of thousands of dollars in debt, so giving a kid an allowance hardly makes a difference. I grew up in a middle class neighborhood and got an allowance of $1 for every year of my age weekly. Most kids I knew got something similar, though money went a lot further back then. Used to be able to walk into Toys R Us with $50 saved up and go on a shopping spree.
Forgot to mention earlier there are unrevealed store exclusives.
>>11736422>line hasn’t even started and we already have eBay exclusive crap
>>11736422I grow tired of these games
>>11736425You just got doodled by the doodler 2.0
>>11736430another victim! why are people so stupid on this board?
>>11736434Victim of what? I said I was tired of his bullshit.
>>11736436sincere apologies, I thought you got doodled.
>>11736433>asking grok to change colors has gained made me infamous like doodlefagYay I have my own personality now. I hope dc general council of shitposters made up of Jarret, patio fag and Amazon analytics guy recognize me!
>>11736488Horrific shit
>>11736488covered neck Superman just looks wrong
>>11736422>Blue batman with not retarded emblem is store exclusive and all my interest in the line completely died. Thanks I guess you saved me 13-26 bucks
>>11736359>mentally ill >have issuesyep, you surely are, what with your stoutdaily and willingdefenseof toddslop sadness
Wait is the entire clock king wave a target exclusive? Exclusives are my most hated thing about modern day collecting
>>11736131Do you have a link to the video?
>>11736591I don't know why stores carry these figures when they are just going to get clearanced. I guess thats why the prices rose on DCMV and why its not in the normal toy aisle anymore. They decided no more.
>>11736488thin your paints or use a better camera angle.im assuming these are marvel figs, howd you do the raised bat-emblem?
>>11736591That Scarecrow is actually pretty awesome.

>>11736708Yet not enough people bought it in stores and it goes to Ross. The reason seems like there is a disconnect between the buyers and the retail outlets stocking it. The retail outlets like Walmart and Target try to put it in store and force people to come in store, when there are not enough people who go to their stores who want it for it to sell through in many cases. Sure, some sells, but not enough. Then either their reordering is janky and they don't restock even if they are in an area with enough people who want it, or they are in an area without enough people who want it and it goes to clearance and no more is ordered due to that.And then when Walmart and Target do have something up on their website to order, it's third party scalpers who are charging double for the figure rather than Walmart and Target themselves handling it, except in rare occasions.
Well they made Black Canary look like an old woman. I'm not buying.
>>11736617Clock king came out years ago. That was like my 4th multiverse figure
>>11736716I did faggot.
>>11736759Good for you I hope your children choked and died on its extra hands.
>>11736764I bet you did a lot of faggots. Commas matters, fuck knuckle.
77 hours until kelly jones fig is shown
>>11736749At this point you should just have patience and wait for Mattel.
>>11736781no.
>>11736781Actually there won't be a Mattel. I'm done with DC after McFarlane.
>>11736749who ever said you shouldnt worry about canary looking ugly cause she got multiple faces, well you better hope she has a 3rd face.
>>11736784Then make your own.
>>11736749lol looks like my mail carriersomebody shop in a cigarette jutting out of her mouth
>>11736798you said that last year too
>>11736806Don't you mean we? You told me you were done with DC after McFarlane too
Given the lack of a response to Black Canary I think they really have lost a lot of buyers. Probably all the platinum, red platinum, rarity lunacy put a good bit of collectors off, on top of them losing the license. Probably a larger portion are indeed just waiting for Mattel.
>>11736858>lack of a responseits because no one wants to post in this gen anymore
>>11736862I meant in general across the social media postings as well for the BC reveal.
>>11736858I was only ever picking up a few figures here and there to fill the gaps in my DCD/DCC collection, but the line lost me after 2023 once he started with all the original characters as platinums, collector's editions, artificial scarcity, store exclusives, unnecessary 2 packs, useless card holders to raise the price, etc. Just bad decision after bad decision that made collecting the line a chore.>"Oh, you want a classic Wonder Woman? Collector's edition!">"Oh, you want Beast Boy in his most iconic look? SDCC exclusive!">"Oh, you want Blackfire? Chase variant and another release that looks nothing like the design that inspired it!"Personally, I don't think I'm going to bother with Mattel unless the figures really blow me away, but they'll have to work hard to run their line worse than Todd has.
>>11736749Someone said it looks like Todd in a drag and now I can't unsee it.
I once got joy from collecting McFarlane Toys. But no more.
todd and matt keep staring at my ass in the locker room
>>11736858Everyone that isn’t a shill has jumped ship and is waiting for Mattel to take over. I care more about their kids line than Todd’s shit at this point. I’m stoked for their collector line. I hope mcfarlane toys goes under and all the digital employees are investigated.
>>11736954freak
>>11736939They're eyeing your wallet>>11736954Todd's stuff is still better than the stuff with no ankle articulation. At this point it isn't worth buying though since he's decided to let his goblins go mask off and start charging $35 for shitty figures with botched headsculpts like Canary. And now she comes with TWO botched faces instead of one! WOW!
>>11736965>Todd's stuff is still better than the stuff with no ankle articulation.Objectively false
>>11736968you tell him sis
>>11736968Why? Todd clearly has better articulation
It’s going to be so sick seeing decent dc toys on shelves again. You don’t can’t even get that with mcfarlane anymore because of the scarcity.
im putting starman in my vagina
>>11736858>Given the lack of a response to Black Canary I think they really have lost a lot of buyers.it looks terrible.
>>11734785This is the only reveal worth a shit
>>11736973You haven't even seen the figures, you imbecile. Seeing some of you argue is like walking into a goddamn elementary school. I like my McFarlanes for what they're worth but their articulation is 80% shit. What pisses me off is that every basic ML figure with a decent butterfly joint is way better than what Todd has to offer and I hate Hasbro>>11736976Really hope when they lose the Multiverse license, people jump ship altogether, especially seeing how shitty the MK and Spawn figures are
>>11736991>Really hope when they lose the Multiverse license, people jump ship altogether, especially seeing how shitty the MK and Spawn figures areNot only that all the new licensed figures ALL have pins still. Fucking insane. I think they know their time is limited with figures going forward which is why they’re getting into blind box and other check out impulse buy shit.
>>11736862Why would they? This is the cesspool of /toy/. The figures aren't that great to play with mainly due to just McFarlanes gonna McFarlane. But the general won't allow any type of discussion any more, it's just arguing over who is right or who is the bigger faggot. It was kinda fun to visit but now it's the same song and dance and you even have to ask why that one anon is wasting his time baiting a hook no one will bite. Idk, I still believe in DC Gen even though we've ran all the clever anons away. If gangbuster guy is still around then I know there is at least one other anon here who actually likes DC and actually collects DC figures and doesn't mind sharing that with a group of allegedly fellow enthusiasts.
>>11736991>You haven't even seen the figures, you imbecile.Im talking about the figures that were shown off without ankle articulation, not the collector figures.
>>11736999Everyone migrated to discord apparently
>>11736999>Gangbuster guythat is a badge of honor for me, seriously
>>11737003They’re still objectively better
>>11737005Based gangbang guy. They call me doodlefag 2.0
There’s really only like 10 of us left here isn’t there
>>11736996I mean the blind box thing is probably a smart business move, albeit a shady one given how addictions work. I still wish them only the worst given how they basically only listened to 10% of their customers' feedbacks throughout these past 5 or 6 years>>11737003It's comparing apples and oranges. One is a collector line with shit articulation. The other one is a kid line with a lack of articulation points
>>11737017I’m 3 of them
>>11737017I'd guess probably around here. The funny thing is, they're doing all these weirdo characters that people were asking for back in 2021-2022 and now that the weirdo characters are coming, no one cares.
>>11737033>and now that the weirdo characters are coming, no one caresBecause the price has jumped almost $20 after tax.

>>11736978Sassy
>>11737046It'd be good if mcfarlane is being punished for the price increases. So often these companies seem to just get away with anything as far as price due to the 'have to have it' culture of collecting
>>11737083
>>11737088Quite a crystal ball Todd must have had
>>11737083Better make a new thread faggot
The line came from the clearance and to the clearance it returns.
>>11737115>back to reasonable prices
>>11737027And JROT is another three
>>11736506That's what I said when the Authority Superman was released. It's one reason why I returned the unopened box to Walmart.>>11736494>>11736703The work was done by someone who posted it on the custom subreddit, and yes, it's Marvel Legends - a Captain America and Punisher Two Pack apparently. No idea how he did anything and anon essentially refused to answer anyone's questions on how he did anything, because folks asked about the head sculpt and other matters and he hasn't responded, so far. I though it was interesting and suggestive of what Mattel might do with the adult line once they start revealing full, finished prototypes.
Has anyone else here actually ever met Todd?
>>11737193I don't meet people. I order my toys and my groceries online. My neighbors have no idea I'm sitting on a Fort Knox of McFarlanes.
Stop talking to yourself.
>>11736895Looks more like Morrison in drag to me.
>>11736895Face blindness is a sign of autism you know.
>>11735781>Horizonlol
>>11736749This is so much better than anything Mattel has ever done. You're all just gay poorfags who are happy you can buy cheap slop.
>>11736772>thinking of a me fucking men because I called you a faggotfaggot
>>11737193Todd bought me a snow cone once when I told him I liked spawn. I don’t dislike the man but I hate his business.
>>11737399was it yellow?
>>11737409Red

>>11737343I'm not a fan of it, but Zero Dawn's literally the best selling game with a female protagonist at 25 million copies. For reference, that's more than the entire Metroid franchise.
>>11737470they can only say it "sold that much" because gamepass is flooded with millions of people who download and play it for 1 second and deleted it. they still count it
Great news everyone! I found a white latern Batman action figure.today! I know you are as pleased as I am to add this figure to my collection! I hope you find yours today at any local store that carries McFarlane toys DC multiverse action figures!
>>11737479Nobody here gives their money to Todd
>>11737479my walmart just stocked the batman incorporated figs, i have at least another year until i even see the returns figures probably (assuming the staff dont instantly snatch them)
When are we going to see the Black Canary platinum? I want to know if I should buy the regular fig or wait for a platinum listing.
>>1173748951 hours
Look at this garbage and the sad part is that most of you will buy it and some of you will even pay scalpers prices
>>11737560>>11736749where do you guys get these hype pics as they come out?
NOOOOOO!!!
>>11737477Huh? It's a Sony exclusive. And regardless Gamepass downloads don't count as sales. They recently raised the price by 50% because it was wrecking actual sales.>>11737560I don't know about collectors elsewhere, but I think most of us here are done with McFarlane or just waiting for a few more missing characters at this point.
>>11737566Instagram and twitter
>>11737560yeah it looks like shit>most of you will buy itconvincing yourself of your imaginary things its extremely unhealthy
>>11737560>the sad part is that most of you will buy itSorry schizo but I already have the WoT Supergirl, so no.
>>11737560Maybe depending on the other face plates. Most likely not though. I’m only really interested is the greedy little orange nigger.
>>11737560Nah, I don't collect McFarts.
>>11737481Yeah, the loud mouths here seem pretty stingy with their money, its as if they don't buy toys at all. >>11737483I got lucky, and I spend 40hrs a week there just stalking electronics waiting for the fat guy to stock the shelves. Oddly enough they also got kite man of all figures, why? Idk, guess that is what Todd sent to our small town as a punishment.
Companies are only doubling down on price increases. Get out of the hobby now.
>>11737560Haha no, that looks absolutely hideous, almost as bad as the Black Canary
>>11737662beast kingdom are just trashy like that
>>11737666Not like Todd trying to charge $60 for Zatanna lol
Is Starman going up tomorrow with everything else or are they going to keep pushing him back?
>>11737752Yes
>>11737755Awesome
>>11737746Now that was total bull shit and Persona 3 fans paid it which will only prove the price is fine and people will pay it. Which really sucks because I think the upcoming image founders figures will be Elite and cost at least $60 and I was curious about the shadow hawk figure but I'm not paying that much for a McFarlane figure.
>>11737772McFarlane Toys is paving the road for every toy company to go to Super7 pricing. Hasbro followed suit with MAXIMUM. I've even seen Mattel upcharging on stuff they know the fans want
I'm a diamond backed sturgeon fan but it doesn't have a video.
>>11737789It looks like a ventriloquist doll face. Todd just completely gave up when he saw how superior Mattels kids toys were.
>>11737662I'm a wealthy doctor do no I dont have to. Inb4 patios fuck you
>>11737575>Huh? It's a Sony exclusive. And regardless Gamepass downloads don't count as salesThey put it in console bundled and count those as sales. And during covid gave it out for free for some sort of covid stay st home bullshit. And those do count as sales. Why are you even talking about that dad hideous bitch her face is more fucked up than a McFarlane woman
>>11737912>>11737912>>11737912
>>11737789>not cavalryman holsters>no gloves>kerchief is cheapest cloth>his expression looks like a fag at a Halloween partyI hate you Todd...but I'll never be able to match your hatred of DC
>>11737399>I don’t dislike the man but I hate his business.I definitely dislike the man.I totally hate McFarlane Toy Stores.Always have.Always will.
>>11737662$48 isn't even a lot of money bro. I have an adult job so, no, I'm not going anywhere. You guys really are broke aren't you?
>>11737915Nice pick, great artist
>>11738037Enjoy paying for all the people leaving due to those price increases. Soon you'll be paying hundreds for the same toy.
>>11738220I really don't care what someone who can't afford $48 does. Sorry, but I have more important things to care about than whether or not you can afford this hobby little Timmy.
>>11738236I just told you you'll be paying for them. So it will affect you. Smaller manufacturing runs means higher prices for those who do buy.
>>11738245I'll be alright anon, you don't need to worry about my finances.
>>11736122They like McFarlane stuff, of course they are
Will anyone here buy Mafex Joker?
>>11735815White lantern Batman looks like hes cumin his brains out

>>11748084dc thread bro
>>11736874I will tell you a secret. All countries have different types of peg warmers. Whats rare in usa might be bargain discount bin in the rest of the world.You just have to check other non main countries. For example you can get a shit ton of sealed blackfires in my country for 40usd. Purple Catwoman is like 20 bucks.
