>>11864368Where the fuck is my new super powers joker todd? You shouldve made one in the first few waves of the line by now you lazy hack, so im deserved him in one of the EE waves especially when you shouldve gotten to him back in 2022
WHAT KILLED DC GENERAL?THE ICE AGE!
>>11864368I can't understand their choices for what goes to retail toy aisles in the standard box. Pink shirt brainiac they think will sell at retail? Sentinel? Crazy. Yet they made some far more desirable figures CEs
got Inart Kekmanim amazed
>>11864613Ew too busy. What's with zoomers liking these overly detailed costumes? Nightwing's traditional black and blue costume is best. Simple black body suit with his blue logo that runs down his arms. Same with black suit Spidey. You just can't beat the classics.
>>11864603Bro they've sold through twice here, just a got third batch today. Idk who this fag is but I want to meet him. Any of you know when apple fest happens?
>>11864613They really need to let this guy go.
>>11864619>Honestly bubby? Straight up, hands down, nothing beats the genuine classics and a full naked buck skin suit that shows how defined the male body is
Beast Boy is a Drip exclusive.
>>11864695Nobody fucking cares
>>11864647You get it bub.
>>11864697>>11864709You don’t have to spam.
How do you guys store your comics?
>>11864731Floppies are bagged and boarded in long boxes in my garage. Trades I keep on bookshelves. And then I have a few pretty high value books that I keep in a safe.
>>11864729Put your trip back on
>>11864731In a box. Most are bagged and boarded but I haven't hit a honey pot dollar bin in a few years so now it's more tpbs.
>>11864619Batman who keks was never a low detail design.
>>11864731Most of them are in boxes in my parents' attic but I keep a couple stacks of important issues in my painting desk. Some of them I use in displays, like the S shield Reign of the Supermen issues are lined up in a row behind my Reign of the Supermen figures.
>>11864695Todd is finding new and interesting ways to shit on his fans. I am passing on all new l8nes he puts out
will we get a 1:18 dc line?
>>11864792No, why would we? Too expensive.
>>11864783Bolland can do no wrong when it comes to covers. I think I've got an old judge dredd compendium where he did a full story. Or maybe it was just a 2000 ad story.
>>11864834cheaper than mcfarlane BUT with better articulation and paint.
>>11864872no one gives a FUCK about spin master
>>11864872Trash ass shampoo bottles.
>>118648701:18 is just as costly to produce as 1:12, but people expect to pay less because of the size, which is why Hasbro stopped making 1:18 G.I. Joe and licensed it out.
>>11864894This can't be true as the amount of paint apps and plastic is less. The tool size is where there is not a big difference
Holy shit The other day I decided to just pull the trigger and buy the mattel bane 3pack, robin, flash and joker all for less than 2 McfarlanesAnd I just got them delivered and holy shit, they're unironically phenomenal figures. For $12 each, I can look past the less than ideal articulation because the sculpts are very nice and for the most part they scale perfectly with my marvel legends. Like if this is the quality we're getting with the $12 kids line, I can't begin to imagine how good the collector's line will be.
>>11864613Remember when McFarlane was known for this kind of sculpted detail? What happened?
>>11864914>they scale perfectly with my marvel legends.
>>11864946Ball hips are making a comeback. Thanks, Toybiz!
>>11864946I don't think this is achievable natty.
>>11864946The black outline around the S needs to stop. I'm not even joking.
>>11864867He's pretty good. I dunno if he's best suited for a war comic, but I'll take him over someone like Liefeld any day.That said, I'm really curious what Liefeld's World War 2 would look like.
Beautiful.
How soon until Mattel does Absolute characters? Seems like hot shit, they should jump on that
>>11864946>Toy Biz Superman
>>11865031I could see it happening in the first yearThe absolute comics are insanely popular, and it usually takes a year for fig companies to capitalize on popular runs. That's why everyone is finally making absolute batman. If mattel was smart they would have planned it as so as they got the license
There are 7 DC generals in the catalog
>>11865122Yeah, they should ban OP
>>11865130Can we make some sort of formal petition to permaban valley forge? Even /tv/ hates the faggot for spamming.
>>11865130>>11865142If all 5 of us can report him, maybe the jannies will do something.
>>11864914I heard Bane is fairly light due to having hollow parts. Do you know which ones? Is it just the torso that's hollow or is it also the legs?
>>11864695What the fuck is Drip and what do they mean by $20 a pull? Is it gacha and you don't know which one you'll get?
>>11865155Every time I see his trip and every op that’s obviously him
>>11865207That's exactly what it is. I imagine a lot of people will be pulling tons of this guy.
>>11865142He's been using a trip on /tv/ since at least 2016 when he started the discord wars.
>>11865212I like Max. They need to make a Jesse Quick already.
>>11864368It's seriously deranged that after all these years this is still the best live action Freeze design and one of the top contenders across the whole franchise.
>>11865322>>11864368Wait this isn't even the Mr Freeze they're re-releasing
>>11865122I seldom come here. What's wrong with this genny?
>>11865207>>11864695gachas, gold rares, platinum rares, red platinum rares, digital collections, movie editions, deluxe editions, F2Poor ross editionstodd is essentially running a live service game in real life
>>11865363>gennyWe get faggots coming in here calling them "genny"
>>11865364And that is exactly why his time with the license is ending. Figures are meant to be enjoyed, not won by luck in a game of chance but be impossible to get otherwise
Before zoomers came up with a term for it the primary function of McFarlane toys seemed to be sitting on a shelf aura farming.
>>11865485They ain't much count for playin.
>>11865495Wanna try repeating that in English?
>>11865502Oh you uncs better be backin on God before rizzlin yourself dig?
>>11865503I don't speak retardese, you'll need to try again.
>>11864631it was yesterday, you big dum dum
>>11864731Digitally, like a true chadBacked up to the cloud and an external driveI even paid for some of these
>>11865580Good luck being blind when you're 50
>>11864731
Around 100 bucks
>>11865644
>>11865646
>>11865648wait that's what absolute bruce looks like????
>>11865576Shit man, I been here 5 years and I never been. Maybe I'll make it out the state fair this year,they got that carriage horse racing deal, harness racing I think. >>11865597It's not that bad honestly. It's not the same experience but some times it's nice to zoom in on a panel and it's obviously cheaper plus you can read stuff that people won't republish.>>11865648I still think this looks silly, I can't get over the lil head. I've got to get a few absolute books so i can understand why his head is so small.
>>11865675Batman's scale changes several times throughout the book as he experiments with venom. It's pretty unhinged but the best new comic there has been in aaaaaaages. >>11865646ordered mine on gundammit, looks fuckin stellar
>>11865363it’s swarming with faggots like you
>>11865659Hard to tell what he looks like in the absolute batman comic since the art is all chicken scratch
>>11865659not even the worst drawing
>>11865811
>>11864737>boardedwhat does that mean?>bookshelvesDo you have them standing like books or laying flat on top of each other?
>>11864914man, I'm so dumb. I was patiently waiting for it to drop on amazon but now I found out it was a mattel exclusive. Obviously sold out already. I will take that as a sign to wait for the collectors line. However why would they gatekeep Bane?
>>11865027SOVLFELD
>>11865692>the best new comic there has been in aaaaaaages.>Absolute CringeThat's sad.
>>11865864>what does that mean?have you never seen a comic book before? Why are you even in this fucking thread.
>>11865864Google bagged and boarded comics and you'll figure it out.
>>11865580True chads have both. I have a couple hundred GB worth of comics, also backed up to a backup drive that's stored in my safe. But, at the same time, I also have all my favorites collected.
>only two people in this general read comicsScalper general, basically.
>>11865960scalpers have to read comics to know what storylines and versions of characters are popular to know which ones to buy, which ones to hold and which ones to fold. It's us "LOOKS COOL" figure guys who don't read the source material. Often its the figure that gets me to read the source material. Happened with the White Night story arcs, Last Knight on Earth and Knightfall
>Marvel General has people recreating and quoting comic panels and scenes from the cartoons. >DC General doesn't even know what bagged and boarded means. This thread is an embarrassment
>>11866030It's not hard to google what the popular stories are.
>>11865659I'm shocked too, I assumed he was some beefy jim lee fucker under that mask.
>>11866092>bagged and boardedIs that what Todd does to his balls?
Reading is FUNdamental
>>11866142This is what authentic thread culture looks like.
>>11865648He actually looks better here since they basically gave him Pattinson's face and a brooding expression.>>11865659Kek. He actually looks worse in the comics. He's a really young Batman with a babyface and a jacked body. >>11865811 >>11865813
>>11865889Yep. Scott Snyder's latest work which is basically an Elseworlds Batman like Murphy's White Knight run. It's become DC's latest cashcow from Snyder not unlike Dark Knights Metal, so expect Absolute Batman to get milked by companies just like Batman Who Laughs.
>>11866142Why haven't you set Ivy and Zatanna free yet?
>>11865644LPZZ wins this one. Top-tier engineering and the most comic accurate by far. Probably better scaling too especially compared to Inart's fluctuating scale not to mention their penchant for stylization.
>>11865868It's an Amazon exclusive. The set has been going up and selling out on various Amazon branches.
Ugh Sandman is in the cancer ass JJ Batman cartoon on AmazonThey replaced the fedora and gas mask with a leather plague doctor gimp maskThank god nobody makes toys for modern DC cartoons so Todd can focus on making a Phantom Lady instead of getting distracted by flavor of the month Batman reimaginings
>>11866092That's what happens when you don't have a reliable main line and your whole thing gets rebooted every 6 years
>>11865365>>11865701Well, then i guess you faggots deserve the misery. Stay mad. :)
>>11866092Because you faggots don't know how to communicate like a proper adult.
This is what Schumacher stole from us.
>>11866208That gun wasn't invented until 1997.
>>11866208Lil bro, you should be embarrassed being in a thread about comic book toys and not what bagged and boarded means. Seriously. It's pathetic.
>>11866245Where's Robin Williams as The Riddler?
>>11866269He's hanging around.
>>11866260no one reads comics that shit is woke
>>11866269Howard Stern Scarecrow would actually be pretty cool. He'd demand $20 mil for his likeness
>>11866260I'm not the guy whom you cried about nor do i care about your argument about comic book terms. I just think you faggots are miserable losers after looking at your posts. Seriously, it's pathetic.
>>11866292Sure kiddo. I totally believe you. Don't hurt yourself on the way out.
Are you still tempted by any current todd releases?
You guys are gonna love Mattel's proclivity to put up some preorders in the middle of the night so only botters can get them. Just happened with some Origins figures
>>11866347Kid flash and a wonder woman would be cool, but it's nothing I'm stressing over. I'd try a 40k figure if I saw one marked down.
>>11864368Im gonna be honest this looks better than that original release for the build a figure.The original looked unfinished and literary looks like a cheap 5 dollar action figure from McDonald's.
>>11864647This but unironically
>>11866375The 40k stuff was nice at 20 but what they're asking now is definitely outrageous.
>>11866376Of course. Most of Todd's figures would look much better fully painted, but they're getting sales at $35 for mostly unpainted figures so there's little incentive for them to make many look as good as this Freeze
>>11866406Someone paid out their contract with GW, I doubt it was Todd but maybe it was. $5 million to get out of a deal early so it was toys, games or a movie. That's the thing with McFarlane toys, the value is not there unless youre a die hard and that's the only option you have for a figure.
>>11866408Todd doesn't care about black peop- er, toy collectors
>>11866350No it didn’t
>>11866436Preternia proves it did
>>11866466If you’re referring to the 200x figures those always sell out but come back in stock before ship date and also always go on discount after release. Over dramatic faggot.
>>11866269He wasn’t black, so they didn’t care to put him in their BLM comicbook.
>>11866539>BLMHuh?
>>11866543have you read it?robin is blacktwo face is black and is also dating barbarathe is an entire new district of gotham where it's mostly blacks so they can be victims and such
>>11866554>robin is blackbecause a black guy was gonna play robin>two face is black because a black guy played harvey dent>the is an entire new district of gotham where it's mostly blacks have you ever seen a city in your life? fucking retard
>>11866580how can you be racist and a dc fan? You make Superman cry...
>>11864368Why'd they make him look so chill?
>>11866590We talk about Superman, not some middle aged white women.
>>11866600Faggot
>>11866602Now that weould make Superman mad.
>>11866176It really does sometimes feel like this is the crowd we're hanging with in DC gen
>>11866535Well DC figures don't have to do that because this isn't MOTU, the scalpers are the STRONGEST with DC.
>>11866589Is Mr Freeze going to escape containment and go on an ice skating rampage at the local pond?
>>11866618these are too bulky to me
>>11866618Is the right one the mafex dark knight returns one that comes with red head robin?
>>11866636What do you think?
>>11866176No particular reason, sometimes I just hold off on opening a figure and after a few months I just decide to keep it sealed or maybe open it and put it back. That was my gi Joe shelf, it was chock full of classics and classified and the rest of my 3 3/4in figures. Got tired of seeing an empty shelf so I pulled out some books I haven't read in years. I really think you guys should check out Ollie's if you can, pretty good place to find cheap tpbs and art books.
>>11866636No, the far left one in pic related does. Both the deluxe/2-pack editions are the weakest of the bunch. I think the one with the horse might be the worst.
>>11866636You mean Carrie? Ariel Winters did the voice acting for her in the animated adaptation of The Dark Returns. Has the Knightfall cartoon come out yet?
>>11866643>2-pack editions are the weakest of the bunch.what makes him so bad? I wanted to buy him this month, but I didn't do any research yet.
>>11866654I am unironically schizophrenic so the yellow feels like it's sticking out too much. I prefer the dirtier look of the other 2 that's all. By worst of the bunch I didn't actually mean they're bad just my least favorite.
>>11865960Don't be a useless imbecile like Jared. 5 different people answered, myself included. J-Rot's not technically 'people' but apparently some kind soul gave him the impression that he was successfully reading so I guess you can count him as .25 or .33 of a person replying. Besides, many of these gens and even the people buying this plastic crack are the very definition of casuals.Like those currently buying up MCU slop or Tomb Raider slop.It's why this gen is full of idiots who think DC starts and stops with batwank. Yes, that Max Mercury figure is an ugly POS toy but he's a part of the deep lore and Todd has pushed out equally ugly toys that did sell just because casuals buy familiar garbage. All those overpriced Superboy or Reverse Flash listings are proof of that.
>>118666434 of the same batman all in one place. how can this be?
Do you remember Parallax, the man who was fear?
>>11866121>>1186565920years old btw
>>11866714Is that Kyle or Hal?
>>11866722Hal of course
>>11866724his hair looks too dark
>>11866586>>11866589That's just not Arnie
>>11866722>Kyle or Hal?I keep seeing this brought up by GL casualfags like some sort of gotcha, but that Parallax figure has zero resemblance to how Kyle was usually drawn in the comics, especially how the figure looks genuinely too old to be Kyle while blatantly missing any of his design traits including the Jim Lee suit. The funny part is when McFarlane actually made a couple of Kyle figures they were all dead-on to his portrait, classic crab mask and all, making this presumption even dumber.
https://youtu.be/gVolqamEQy4
>>11866735I don't remember what kyle looked like as parallax close enough>looks too old to be Kyleyesbut also the hair appears black in that picture
>>11866714Yeah, that's the first one mom brought home for me.
>>11866642That's fair. I'm saving opening Hellboy just because the packaging looks so cool. Saving Alex Ross Batman for when I can get my hands on a Superman.>>11866245This is the coolest figure of the year. I have a comics only for villains rule but this guy is half comic, half movie, and I found two of him and sold the extra for $80 so I was able to cover the cost of Ivy. Between the Chinese smuggler I paid for Ivy, my own journey into the heart of darkness through scalping, or the desperate rando who paid top billing for a Lando doll, I'm not sure who was in the right and who was in the wrong. Maybe we're all just out here in the jungle, and all that really matters is how happy you are with your collection.
>>11866714Ben Stiller?
>>11866742I'm still mad they made the TAS Twoface the platinum and the ancient green/purple Twoface the main release in the mcfarlane digital release.
>>11866750Yeah I would have picked up that version if it weren't ridiculously overpriced. My Target had the comic version but Bat villains aren't on my checklist and that design is fucking disgusting and distracting. It works on a comic page but as a physical object on a shelf it's awful.
>>11866737Kyle looked pretty different from Hal as Parallax. The first time it happened it was just his traditional costume altered to resemble Hal's Parallax look. The second time it was closer to Hal's look but still retained his traditional mask.
>>11866722It's Todd.
>>11866742>Jarret is a scalper who supports other scalpersYou are everything wrong with the figure collecting community. Up your own ass, obnoxious across every platform you post on, and to top it off, a SCALPER! Fitting that such a faggot be in charge of such a faggot general that doesn't even know what bagging and boarding a comic book means. This thread is easily the most embarrassing, and pathetic thread on the board. The guys over in the Marvel thread laugh at you.
>>11866791now this is an absolute batman I can get behind
>>11866643Am I the only one who thinks the right one gives albino gorilla vibes?
Just ordered the Alex Ross Superman from GameStop and they have movie Freeze and Ivy up for preorder, so if you pick up both you get free shipping. They ship on October 1st.
>>11867094Seems like you're still ALL IN on DCMV. I assume there's no way you're going to mix Mattel in with these 7inchers?
>>11867096I might pick up a Bane or Darkseid if the sculpt is cool enough and they scale with the DCMV guys. I fucking hate the way pelvis joints look on Mattel and Hasbro figures, like I straight up didn't buy toys before Todd's Action Comics 1000 Superman because they all have this weird blocky shit going on that makes them look like MotU and wrestling figures.I'm a miniatures game player first and foremost so sculpt is the only thing matters, and Mattel's sculpts are always as lazy as they are boring.I won't say no, but it'd have to be something really awesome to make me overlook the visual sins their designers commit.
I tell you, one is Azrael in Batman Armor and the other is Batman in Azrael Armor. But would be difficult to tell them apart.
One of the cats I tend to, Teela, jumped out the window so if you see her just let her sit on your lap or something. Shes a big fan of the DCMV so I'm guessing she went on a toy hunt or maybe she is in heat AGAIN,idk. She likes pc engine games and Batman and the Outsiders.
>>11867137Ones lighter blue, ya filthy casual. Bro, do you even bag and board?
>>11867140Todd's Chinamen who put together his figures are slackin'. Mine has a QC issue on the belt, its not on straight fully. It's close, but its noticeably off. But I ain't got no will to return it what with the line ending. I'm just so tired of DC Multiverse. I'm tired of Todd's wild ride. Hopefully it'll be well and truly over and Mattel will put out none but slop and I'll be free from this long, terrible dream.
Tell me why McFarlane's designers made his hands light teal. Spin for me the tale of madness.
>>11867156they forgot the paint
>>11867158That's just crazy enough to be true
>>11867156Theyre grey?
>>11867164His legs are gray. His hands are a light blue
>>11866543The comic has a BLM riot and Batman lets looting happen, because of systemic racism. They make a big point about this regarding the black Robin, trying to shoehorn modern George Floyd riots into a Tim Burton Batman comic, as if Rodney King riots would have been in his version of Batman. Most people drop Batman’89 right when they get to this part.
>>11867251That's shitty. I think we would all prefer to see Batman Rittenhouseing a whole Walmart of looting youths.
>>11867253batman doesn't kill. deal with it.
>>11867255He could shoot em in the dick.
>>11866543>>11867253Google summarizing the moment
>>11866791Went with LPZZ (on the right). More consistent scaling and the overall sculpt looked more accurate and the articulation was smoother in places to the point of looking seamless.
its over for mafex
>>11867507Too bad it's a terrible design & comic.
>>11867255>Burton Batman>doesn't kill
>>11867532...on opposite day, but in the real world it gigamogs anything coming out of the Marvelous Competition™on both fronts.
>>11867591>Modern comic readers have shit tasteShocking. It's just class warfare bait with a Batman who is poor sprinkled in. The whole Absolute line reeks if class warfare baiting. It's pretty shit. Not saying Marvel is producing anything better so you may as well say shit tastes better than piss.
>>11867600you just hate everything new because you're old and tired.
>>11867635No. I hate the blatant class warfare bullshit that's sprinkled across the whole line. Absolute Superman's whole deal is the class system on Krypton dictating how each Kryptonian should live their life. Or how in Absolute Batman they're trying to push him as more of a "warrior for the people" schtick by making him poor instead of the Dark Knight detective. It's not even subtle. I enjoy new stuff all the time, Absolute just isn't my cup of tea because I don't like the themes and tone. I've articulated pretty well what my specific criticism of the line is, going much deeper than "hurr durr new bad, old good". The fact that you need to resort to this strawman of an argument just shows you don't actually have anything of substance to say. Feel free to join back into the conversation when you actually have a point to make instead of making a knee jerk, overly emotional response like a woman. Good day madam.
