Right now Starman Jack is making his way across the planet to me. I might buy the Superman Returns Superman a little early, too.
>>11754396No one cares
Core line. $12.95 each.
>>11754405You do care. You hate me because I'm happy and love the game, while you just camp here acting like a bitch.I might have Starman Jack by the end of the week.
>>11754408This is rich coming from the guy who declared, several times, that he was leaving this place, only to never leave and proceed to attention whore like the biggest faggot imaginable. I hope your Starman Jack has frozen joints or shitty QC.
>>11754195>know nothing casuals.It amuses me to no end how /toy/ decides to gate-keep DC lore, particularly by picking one of the lesser of the lesser events (Zero Hour) to do so./toy/ only 4chinz boys are the original no-nothing casuals of this Mongolian basket-weaving pinterest puzzle palace. They are exactly the people who bought out Captain Carrot because of the LOLZ.Wake me up when a DC license holding toy maker does a figure of a DC character who never even had a self-titled one shot, much less a mini/maxi-series or longer run, and I can laugh and laugh while y'all pretend to know all about them.
>>11754411>no-nothingIt amuses me that you still haven't learned after all these years lmao
>>11754411Hey now, some of have a few issues of capt carrot and the zoo crew. I see no value in gatekeeping any hobby, especially when we will never share a room together. So whadda I care who is or isn't a fan, it's not like I've got to worry about being annoyed by "casuals".
ITS UP!https://youtu.be/m6Y666Fe7yY?si=hBWznHy4ONRpLgnH
>>11754430I only learned about Captain Carrot from reading Final Crisis and then doing a deep dive to see who the Zoo Crew were back in like 2008. I dunno if that makes me a casual or not, but at least I';ve read some comics with them in it.
>>11754407It was supposed to be 9.99
>>11754410Is that all you got? "You said you were leaving but then you didn't." You're a bitch and your entire existence is just endless miserable asspain.
>>11754439Act like a raging faggot and you get treated like one.
>>11754442Nah, every community has ass-licking schizo orbiters like you who contribute nothing and just smear shit on the walls. You're just another subhuman freak, an empty husk of wasted potential.
>>11754445Still acting like a faggot I see. Sad. Keep it up and your Starman is going to get lost in the mail.
>>11754413I read comic books, sister.Do you think I took Fresh English my senior year as anything other than an easy credit to sleep through?I'm sure your history or liberal arts degree has really come in handy when you needed to read the instructions manual for the deep fat fryer.
>>11754451Being proud of being an illiterate retard doesn't make you look cool you know.
>>11754445this photo will always remind me of nsync
>>11754368These look so good I got fomoed into both of them and joker, should get them fridaydid anyone else fall for mezco’s tricks?
>>11754445I love the dynamism of American figures. Look at how insanely posed up they are - like a bunch of contortionist. It's amazing how far we've come in regards to articulation and engineering of action figures. Their body language in this picture is so real and life like.
>>11754407>card art doesnt match the figure>nobody will care because its only a problem when TODD does it
>>11754491The only thing I see not matching is the bat logo. Mcfarlane figures will be completely different from the card arts.
>>11754465Only for year one
>>11754439it is true tho that you said at least ten times that after Zatanna you would “be free”. since then you probably have made nearly every OP and and here all day long, you faggot fuckin retard.
>>11754453sister, sister, sister, getting your clitoris erect because your only joy in life comes from LARPing on a fourth rate Mongolian basket-weaver's pinterst mood board as a grammar nazi school marmis no way to go through life
>>11754531You type like a faggot
>>11754495Let him have it.Todd will only okay his Grand Canyon College Credit paperwork if the "intern" does so many "successful" defenses of McFart Slop per day.
>>11754445>>11754439>>11754408
Well her face looks better than the promos. But there is some weirdness in this mold.
>>11754631She has fat hands
>>11754640Just like her cousin
>>11754631>The last figures todd makes will have mold defects because it's not worth getting another when he's gonna lose the license anywayYou'd think he'd just reuse all that stuff on other things but maybe there's rules about that these days
>>11754407>Domestic figures have dlc now Grim
>>11753840>>11753784You're 190 posts?Talking to yourself?And you're wanting to talk to IT?I guess bots have pussies, too, just like ugly ladies, and with enough alcohol....
>>11754657I'm replying to you faggot bot. For the last fucking time, I'm not him. Im me, I'd probably rather be him than be me but that's not how my life is meant to be. This is the best possible of all worlds.
>DC Gen has two schizos talking to themselvesI don't even wanna post my Mafex Tim Drake when I get him later this week.
>>11754677Starmananon is high on the thrill of the hunt
Not going to lie these Blokees are pretty easy to put together. So far I got Superman, Hatsune Miku, and Shockwave. Thinking about getting the Sesame Street ones.
>>11754677It's one not two.
>>11754712Shame about the cape on that one.
>>11754717Easy fix
>>11754712Really straight forward to build as well once you've built one or two. They've got some Jurassic Park models I've been curious about but I've yet to see any DC stuff yet.
C'mon mattel, let's get serious and get with some real stuff. Forget Todd and his normycore zero hour trite and let's get into some real meat.
>>11754733I don’t even know what that is
>>11754411>particularly by picking one of the lesser of the lesser eventsI fucking hate zoomers who get all their knowledge from youtubers, so of course you're going to look down on something just because it's not known today.Zero Hour was a very popular event in the 90s and it helped out launches of some of the more popular series and allowed revamps to happen. Justice League, Impulse, Legion of Superheroes, Green Lantern, JSA, etc.
>>11754733I had two can never have figures: Gangbuster, and Prism. c’mon Todd.
>>11754733>>11754734>>11754737Maybe there's a fucking reason you don't and why DC refuses to aknowledge this shite era. You'll get one or two retarded contrarians that say otherwise but nobody and I say nobody liked bloodlines.
I FUCKING LOVE BLOODLINES!
>>11754733regular>>11754737Platinum
>>11754407So...Aquaman in wave 2???
>>11754765Aquaman never.
>>11754663>probably rather be himOh, lesser Jared, you poor, sweet, deluded thing....One day, Matty will trap you in his basement, but at least no one will slather you in grease.
>>11754771I'll slather you in grease, little boy. mmhmmm.
>>11754492i mean you can literally just google starman and acclaimed and get plenty of results like thishttps://www.gamesradar.com/revisiting-starman-by-james-robinson-tony-harris-more/
>>11754781Yeah. Everyone knows it was James Robinson's Magnum Opus after he became DC's go to guy for golden age characters.
>>11754735Even when it released it was considered poor man's Crisis. It was mediocre at best.
>>11754788the story was better than Crisis, but yeah, it wasn't a major shake up, but it wasn't meant to be.As said, it allowed other titles and characters to shine, so they could rebound like Batman, Superman, and Flash did from Crisis.
>>11754791>Better than CrisisLol, lmao even
>>11754781Starman is easily the best superhero series DC has ever published. Watchmen is boring as shit and you can only really appreciate it for its autistic tediousness. Starman connects the modern era with heroes from the 40's, visiting obscure nobodies like Sandman and Phantom Lady celebrating the full history of DC comics.Most heroes come out of the gate wanting to make the world a better place, but Jack starts out reluctantly accepting the mantle and grows into the role. Most heroes fly in and pummel the shit out of the bad guy, but repeatedly Jack shows a mercy and kindness that ends up saving the day more than the cosmic rod. Most heroes have stories that drag on forever and become retarded ass bullshit with ten robins hanging out in the batcave, but Jack has a kid and retires, passing the staff on to someone else to continue the legacy. It's about an antiques collector learning from the cycles of the past and growing beyond them, and one of the most intelligent and mature series the medium has ever had.I'm not saying this to be mean but most people here can barely read, like the Absolute and Hush shit, and are unironically hyped for Mattel's children's toys so I think Starman is kind of beyond them. Even if most of you can follow what's happening from text bubble to text bubble I think the deeper themes and messages would be lost on most of you.But if anyone here has working eyes and a functioning brain and likes DC comics and hasn't read Starman, they should order the collected editions immediately.
>>11754815>rambles of a madmen broken by toddIf this is what I become reading starman, I don't want to.
>>11754825That's fine. Stick to your endless Batman reboots. I hear he's getting another Robin and two more wheels on the Batmobile or whatever.
>>11754830It's really cringe how pissy you get when someone else doesn't suck off your favorite character. Get a life you stupid homo.
So. Anybody make any cool customs? I got that cave man Mr Freeze and I'm going to repaint him into the Scavenger.
>>11754815Nah, Batman sweeps.
>>11754439Why do her knees look different?
>>11753917Nta but it took me a minute to find this. Why are you so dumb?>>11753927I never liked the Revoltech style but this is the first time I think a figure of theirs looks really interesting. How the hell is this the first non-TAS-like Terry figure to complete nail the look of the face?>>11754407Maybe it's just me but I think it's a fair price for the quality offered. Won't get into Mattel either way though because I already have my McFarlane team almost completed
>>11754735Not a zoomie, sisterJust because you have nostalgia goggles for comics you read when you were a babby and your three nerd friends also got their tiny teeny boy peens erect over five lousy issues shat out by Dan the Hack doesn't mean it was popular. So popular it's often referred to as DC's "overlooked" crisis.So popular it's the worse-seller of their crisis that barely managed an anniversary one-short where even Marz around to temper Dan's stupidity (and desire to shove Booster into anything and everything).And yes, so popular it still managed to not even crack the top 50 best sellers for 2024 in sales or dollars.Very popular.
>what's popular is what's goodlol night shift detective comics comics general is so fucking retarded
>>11754927Why are you writing like a spiteful degenerate? Fuck's sake, sometimes it feels like only 10% of this board isn't emotionally stunted adults.Both of you are right without even realising it. Yes, it was a popular event but at the same time, it's one of the lesser known events when it comes to casuals. Meanwhile, both of you are going on about discussing semantics like toddlers>overlooked>not even crack the top 50 best sellersSomething can be popular and still overlooked in the long run, especially during this day and age. Also, if it were completely devoid of relevance, they wouldn't have churned out an Omnibus multiple times and included the event in their DC Finest line
>>11754865someone took the stealth aquaman body, tossed the mamoa head and hands and turned it into a black suit supes, with a custom (henry) head and a cloth goods capei mean, todd made a black suited supes from the zach snyder movies but i guess its overpriced with scalpers enough that this made sense to that dude.all those bodies are dirt cheap and it's a really basic enough buck that you can do something with it.the dwayne black adam buck is even cheaper, at $8 but you have to fuck with those boots and do something with the thunderbolt.also don't get why the ass is so flat on some of these bucks and then todd shits out some that looks like someone baked a cake back there>>11754765>>11754769spin master released aquaman regularly but then again they did shazzy and black adam so even though it was classic comic looks, that might been a movie mandate maybe expect supergirl and lobo first ? and gls for the tv show, maybe even pissmaker
>>11754931Zero Hour wasn't good either.
>>11754945Never really understood what people expect from events to begin with. Most events are extremely generic and usually, the only exceptional things tend to be the art
>>11754815Sounds interesting. I will give it a read.
I like batmanI cant wait for the kids toys line so I can clang them together in pretend fights with marvel legends. Mecha batman is really Have a nice day
>>11754919Mattel doing great work!
>>11754927You sure sound like a zoomer, considering you act like the only thing that matters is if it's popular today.And you originally referred to it as an "event", so are you just trying to change your goalpost or is this just some ignorance of how many events DC has?Out of all the 90s events that weren't "family related" (batman's No Man's Land or Death of Superman), Zero Hour is probably the most popular DC event from the 90s. Do you even know about Armageddon? Genesis? Final Night? Or Bloodlines that was brought up in this thread?These had almost nothing of consequence happen, unlike Zero Hour, and lot of connected books improved greatly.>>11754948almost no one here reads comics, even if they own them. Most only care about their value and if some youtuber validates their choices by referring to their issues as "key"
>>11754967BASEDASED
>>11754988Just because it kicked off some good eras in other books doesn't mean Zero Hour itself was good. This revisionist history where it was one of the most acclaimed comics in the 90s is fucking weird.
I liked the final night way more than zero hour
>>11754988nta Zero Hour was basically a cleanup job to Crisis on Infinite Earths that lacks a defining “hook”. It's important for continuity but it's messy and confusing. Widely known =/= widely loved. I'd give it to DC One Million.
>>11754988Zero Hour itself was NOT good. Time is breaking… but in inconsistent ways? It’s very obviously trying to fix decades of continuity mid story. Parallax is rushed if you didn't read Emeral Twilight. And key events happen in tie ins not the main story itself. Zero Hour is messy because it’s trying to tell a big crossover story, fix continuity errors and set up future reboots and it never full commits to just one. Hawkman alone is a good example of why the story kinda sucks.
>>11755075It was kinda neat but let's face if, the best event comic DC has done as ide from crisis and 52 is clearly bloodlines. Zero hour was pretty much just updated origin stories because wave rider did something.
>>11755143and I liked Invasion better than Bloodlines
What? No Identity Crisis fans in here?
>crisis on infinite memes>meme crisis>meme hour>meme52It's Crisis on Earth X. Two issues. Fuck up a bunch of Nazis and go home. No pointless retcon reboot gymnastics, just good superheroing.
>>11755159>Identity CrisisThat was like 2004. Not really 90s.
>>11755169Yeah. The 90s sucked and I'm tired of pretending it didn't
>>11755172Everything pre-90's is ye olde boomer crap. Everything after the early 2000's is corporate committee slop. 90's was the peak.
Why does McFarlane even put "NOT A TOY" on non-DC stuff now?
>>11755176So parents can't sue him when their kids suck the toxic mold release grease off his Batmans
>>11755175>Everything after the early 2000's is corporate committee slop.Everything is ALWAYS corporate committee slop. You were just too young to notice.
>>11755175Post crisis is literally corposhit. Warner lost the rights to Clark being Superboy so they deleted it, fucking over LOSH in the process. Then they proceeded to decommission all their silverage characters in fear the creators trying to sue them too. Batman was safe because Bob Kane sucked off every WB executive.
>>11755183Superboy is kind of a dumb concept. I don't want Smallville to be "superhero training camp". I want my Superman to be a symbol that emerges at the right moment, not someone who’s already been doing it forever.
>>11755175Only good part of the 90s for DC was Morrison's JLA.
>>11755187No one asked what you want bitchtits.
>>11755183Do we even need Superboy for the Legion to work?
>>11755195Not really. Even less so when you figure in Mon-el.
>>11755192>BitchtitsI thought he only posted on /pw/
>>11754830>>11754815>>11754445>>11754439>>11754408
>>11755189Trips of truth.
>>11755189>Waid Flash>Waid JLA Year One>Kingdom Come>Marz GL>fuckin Knightfallall better than dollar store Alan Moore. your opinion is dogshit and you know nothing, zoomer
>>11755286>Waid FlashI'll give you this. Wally will always be my Flash >Waid JLA Year OneNo>Kingdom ComeMediocre story only held up by Alex Ross art>Marz GLI mean it damaged Hal's character for a decade until Johns resurrected him. Kyle's fine I guess, I always liked Hal more since he was a pilot. >KnightfallNah. That and Death of Superman is about where DC jumped the shark for me and I stuck to Image and other non big two books. I didn't come back around to DC until Infinite Crisis.
I’m glad we can all agree Wally is the flash.
>>11755355He is so not the Flash that they turned him black.
>>11754967wish spin masters mecha batman and mecha superman could actually be posed fighting with mecha joker and mecha brainiac they look good but you can't even get them in boxing fighting poses up
>>11755092Never said it was widely loved. I said it was good and it was popular, and both are true.>Zero Hour was basically a cleanup job to Crisis on Infinite Earths that lacks a defining “hook”.Like i said, it wasn't supposed to be a major shake up, hence the "fixes" being focused on the lesser important characters and series from the DC universe.If you actually followed DC at the time (few people did? hence this event) it's not all that confusing, because most of the important characters and motivations was from not-popular series.I think it was the inverse of Crisis, where Crisis was all hook (ground breaking concept), but the story was mostly forgettable. How much do you even remember of Crisis? Mostly just the important shit you only see repeated a billion times over from people who never read it, because it's 12 issue of filler and outdated writing.Whereas Zero Hour had a much better villain(s) and motivations. The meta was great. And the writing wasn't stuck in the Silver Age.>>11755075Final Night had a ton of introspection, but as an event, it's kinda boring. There's a reason why no one's really wanted to put a collected edition together. Whereas Zero Hour has had multiple collections, because the side stories are interesting.Also, Bloodlines is 90s dreck. Yeah, there's a diamond or two, but it was a really stupid cash in on trying to make as many 90s characters as possible before the market collapsed.
>>11755302I don't get the love for Waid's Flash. Reading it as a teen, it was West Coast Avengers quality writing (read: mediocre). I bought the first big two trades when Waid's run was being collected in the 10s and it only cemented my view as a teen. I bought a later trade, to see if people actually like it from his later years, but i have no motivation to read due to how meh the first couple of years are. >it damaged Hal's character for a decade until Johns resurrected himI think all the love that Hal gets is based on what Johns wrote and nostalgiafags hyping up a super boring character. there's some great concepts in his old books, but woof, 99% of them are hard to read because of how bad to mediocre they are, and none of them really make Hal into a good character. Even Johns trys to condense everything about him, inserting his own nostalgiafag ideas of who he really was, and Hal still winds up the least interesting characters in his books.hal worked better as a fallen hero, unironically being a nostlagiafag for better times.
>>11755302Don't get me wrong, I really enjoyed the death of Superman and I think funeral for a friend is an under appreciated bit of the story. That said it was just a marketing stunt, DC was #3 behind both marvel and image comics and needed something to grab onto saleswise and just reader engagement wise. If DC just wanted to tell a story where supes died then they could've easily just used the elseworld imprint but that wouldn't grab the same attention worldwide as actually "killing" the man of steel. I think that knightfall was a shark jump, once again really great story all the way through, but look at how quickly DC brought Bruce back once everyone got fed up with azbats. How long did it take, 3 months? The death of Hal at least brought in a new latern who is still active as a latern and been a big part of DC lore since he was created. TL;DRDeath of Supes, Bats And Hal were all marketing stunts, and only Green Latern succeeded in creating a hero to replace a 'legacy' character that is still a large factor in the lore of DC
>>11755033for like the fifth time, i am the one who threw out the "most acclaimed" thing in the first place and i was talking about starman, not zero hour.
>>11755377Stop making up lies.
I liked this Fate. Too bad the writer for the second series didn't get the character.
So is this worth spending $9+ shipped to have as a nameless thug? I will probably remove this head and put a wash on his pants or the jacket so it's not so clearly the Drifter Bruce Wayne. Obviously, I will dump or do something else with the backpack. Swap those hands for a fist and a gun hand and I have plenty of hand guns from McFarlane's own weapons pack. Or is there something better I can use. And don't say those fucking legends ninjas or track suit mafia figures, those are all more than $10 each in the here and NOW.
>>11755561How could it not beAlways check eBay too, "lots" means lots of toys.
Not only did it ship before the official preorder date but the seller sent a personal thank you and pics of the item in hand. Todd has never once personally thanked me for buying a toy from him.
>>11755589Todd once sent me a thank you note and a free Deadman with one order.
>>11755591That sounds more like a threat than a freebie
>>11755598>jarret isn’t even whiteGrim.
>>11755598That is the worst photoshop I've ever seen. You didn't even try with the shadows.
>>11755605>>11755600it's clearly the pic from: >>11755589
>>11755647Yeah the seller completely photoshopped the in hand pics.
