>>11915058>"To sell, I need more Hush.">"HUSH?!">"Sheesh... It's hard to believe how much Hush sells!!!"
>>11915102Did they really put dollar signs on their announcement? Are they that daft?
>>11915058Are these mattel or blokees?
>>11915108I'm so tired of DC toys being based on Jim Lee's art, the house style and main art on promo material being Jim Lee's, DC Online being designed by Jim Lee, the entire company being run by Jim Lee and spamming nothing but Jim Lee.An updated Super Lois figure or All Star Superman set with Luthor would be cool, but DC is run by someone who has giant posters of his art all over the office headquarters and wants everything they do to somehow pay homage to his work.But then, it's been the Jim Lee Show for so long that DC doesn't really have anything iconic or different besides the Absolute stuff. I have a feeling that's part of why those books are so popular, because they have absolutely nothing to do with Jim Lee's vision and it's pretty clear is way more successful than they expected. I don't even like Absolute but I like that it isn't Jim Lee.
>>11915110The number of dollar signs imply if it's a pricey item. Seems like it will be. Pretty sure a Chronicles figure is $$, so this is probably a deluxe Absolute Batman if that other tease that was sent to youtubers is to be believed (there was a picture of Absolute Bats). The amount of Absolute Batmen has been unreal.
>>11915120Oh god it is gonna be fucking Absolute Batman isn't it? Why do people even like that design and book? Holy fuck. You guys complain about Hugh all you want, but at least it can be used as basic, evergreen Batman characters. I don't need more Bat wank though. I watched the first episodes of Lanterns, and while I have my problems with it, it did put me in the mood to re-read some Geoff Johns GL. Hadn't read that shit in over a decade. Just finished up with Secret Origin and forgot just how much it foretold would happen during the urn. Hopefully Mattel won't wait too long to give us a good Hal. I have the Icons and the Mezco and they're both kinda crappy now for various reasons.
>>11915123Don't waste your time with Lanterns. John doesn't put on the ring and fly until the last scene of the last episode. Just watch the Guy scenes on youtube, he's the only one who wears a ring and a costume and does Lantern stuff. You never see the Guardians or any of the aliens, you never see Oa, Hal is relentlessly shit on, John is delusional and thinks birds are watching him. It's bad. It's so bad.
>>11915130>gibs me dat rang dead ass cracka >fuck up off muh earf guy>run tell that to dem guardians 10/10 showCan’t wait for a civilian John with a shovel
>>11915135I'm really looking forward to a third of the Superman movie being about his new pal Gravedigger John
>>11915130Probably repurposed ideas for a Watchmen S2.
>>11915130John Stewart will forever be saddled with this show among the larger normalfag public just like Hal is saddled with the Reynolds movie. There is no hope for these characters going forward. For those that didn't watch the cartoons or read the comics, this is their horrifying introduction to a character that otherwise should be respectable. How sad.
>>11915140kek
>>11915144>Some of the events and characters are canon, but I won't tell you which.This can't be real
>>11915146It’s not
>>11915143Nah John will always be the JLU version with a deep confident voice. Most people don't remember there's a Steel movie with Shaq, or any of those old Marvel movies. The good stuff sticks around, the forgettable garbage like the Watchmen show just disappears.I fucking love the Steel movie with Shaq by the way.>>11915144I like the Superman movie because it's different from the Snyder stuff, but this guy is starting to piss me off in new ways. He wasted eight hours of my life with the Lanterns show, like straight up, "maybe next week someone will put on a ring and do something." Stop fucking around on twitter and get back to work on Superman 2.
>>11915146It isn't real, it's just something someone posted yesterday for fun. Lanterns is fully canon to the DCU.
>>11915152>this guy is starting to piss me off in new ways. He wasted eight hours of my life with the Lanterns show, like straight up, "maybe next week someone will put on a ring and do somethingYou know what maybe Gunn isn't so bad after all.
>>11915160I'm amazed VF has the time to watch a show with how much time he spends attention whoring.
>>11915120Yeah it's a Mattel thing , I'm going to guess the ADULT super awesome COLLECTOR figures will be $40. My question is which version of Batman will they use as their reveal figure? Will it be only one Batman or will it be multiple Batman figures?
Insider here.Batman.
>>11915143I don't really see anyone pigeon holding Hal Jordan as the guy from a Green Latern movie from 20 years ago. I've never read anyone who is watching the show even mention that movie.
>>11915181endless hush and new 52 variants
>>11915130Don't you tell me what to do you twink. I'll do what I want.
>>11915116Is Todd making Absolute WW and Superman? Or did he give up on that and it's just Batman?
>>11915205I'm assuming they'll be Elite Editions, so he'll stagger them either monthly or biweekly. The $70 Darkseid pack and $60 Bane haven't sold out yet, so there's a limit on the bigger ticket items people are willing to go for. Especially since they're paying shipping and tax on top of the $50 price tag.Elite Tomb Raider was last week, and NYCC is this weekend so Absolute Bats will go up this week, then next week will probably be Elite Witchblade or something, then some more Elite Helldivers, then Elite Absolute Supes or Wondy. That seems like the most logical rotation and would time the last release to go up in December.I'm just speculating and all three could go up as Gamestop exclusives tomorrow at 7:34am.
VF really likes talking to himself.
>>11915209Originally in the leaks there were supposed to be normal versions of all 3 and only Batman was supposed to have an elite version, but given how McFarlane Toys has decided to skyrocket prices I wouldn't be surprised if they try this.
>>11915218I don't have a Cavill Superman and this is kind of like a dark edgy Superman that's doing all the same things the Snyder suit wanted to do, but better. If it's a $25 figure I'll go for it just because it's a neat design, but if it's an Elite then I won't bother. I'm a sucker for metallic Supermen figures and am kinda bummed we never got a shiny McFarlane classic Supes.The boots and gloves look like shit on Todds, but whoever's doing this figure with the clear bits looks siiiiiiiick as hell.I don't care about the story. Metallic suit with a weird Spawn cape and glowing Eradicator gloves is a yes yes yes.
>>11915116The only thing I take issue with Hush is that we can't get a traditional smiling Superman because of it, but that's the maker's choice, really, it's one more faceplate and they always skimp on it.I might still pick it up to custom it into a Mighty Bomb Jack, though.
I don’t know what you guys are talking about. Regardless of what you think the green lantern show was a hit and it brought in new fans. https://youtu.be/7CnfcssVcvI
>>11915114these are blokees
>>11915381It's going to be funny when they read the comics and see it's nothing like that trash show.
>>11915391There's an old Jon Stewart story that this is roughly adapting, but it's insane they went with a gay zero fx road buddy story instead of something properly Green Lantern.I swear that if Green Lantern 2011 came today it would be praised to high heavens.
>Something new is swooping into Mattel Creations. Get ready for a legendary debut that’ll have you cheering from the rooftops...>Hello Super-Fans!>An incredible new collectible is coming to Mattel Creations. We must keep its identity a secret for now, but we know you'll shout from the rooftops once it's revealed! Keep this one quiet for now, and we'll open pre-orders for it soon.>Think you can follow the clues to figure out what's coming?
>>11915402Really gay approach. Just have the countdown and shut up.
>>11915401A new Green Lantern film is what should have been the introduction into the cosmic side of the DCU.
>>11915422Supergirl was so ass everyone already forgot about it
So what are the chances of these characters even getting figures?>Congorilla/Congo Bill >Aztec>Any of Robby Reeds hero forms>Fire and or Ice>Roxy Rocket>Mighty Endowed
>>11915533Mcfarlane already did 3 of those.
>>11915694>meanwhile hasbro announces the standard price for all their collector lines will be $29.99 going forward PLEASE let Mattel undercut them with the legacy line because it would be so fucking funny
>>11915696They won't. Don't worry, the Legacy line is going to be $30 too. Welcome to the new norm.
>>11915724Nope. Legacy will be $25 or under. Ultimate will be $34.99 tho
>>11915696Didn’t they just raise prices to $28 recently? I’m glad I don’t buy much of this shit anymore
>>11915733Yes, that was always just a slow frog boiling move. This is the best time to quit collecting.
>>11915694All this teasing for a marvel legend-tier sloppy figure. Lol I hate domestic slop.
>>11915765Welcome to Sloplive at (White Labeled Action Figure Manufacturer): Where we give YOU the slop you want, when you want it.
>>11915765Okay.
>>11915756Im not going to quit collecting, just quit collecting domestic. If I’m gonna get ripped off it might as well be on an inart or lpzz. Every price increase these companies pull just makes the high end shit more appealing instead.
>>11915778At least Mattel has stayed affordable so far.
>>11915211>attention is as attention does
>>11915782Chronicles is 26.99, the DC line has licensing costs so it could go higher.
>>11916028I fully expect the collector line (ultimate) to be $34.99+ be the mid tier legacy line should be $25 or under
Finally opened Hellboy tonight.
>>11916111Yeah, just like their WWE stuff. I bet they'll do two Origins based lines too.
>>11915058Why is Superman killing Jonkler?
>>11916135He’s getting the last laugh
>>11916138lol
>>11916111This will harm the line in the end because the poor will be dissuaded from getting into a line where some characters will illogically be 35 while others will be 25
THIS IS PROBABLY BULLSHIT but I’m going to tell you. We’ll know soon enough anyway. According to the leak Facebook group I’m in the dc legacy line the mid tier one has Dc Icons articulation.
>>11916159They’re copying their wwe model. Doesn’t hurt them at all. 3 line with different pricing with multiple of the same person in each line.
>>11916169Their WWE figures look awful. Not a good line to copy IMO.
>>11916185They’re copying the tiers they aren’t using their bucks
>>11916166Example of the old icon figures
>>11916190Even using the same sculptors and engineers would be anathema
>>11916196>No thigh cuts>No butterfly joint>Those horrible waist crunchesDisgusting
>>11916202Careful now, you'll piss off the resident autist who ate that shit up.
>>11916202They’d probably have thigh cuts considering core has them. Like I said if this is the wwe elite equivalent then this is fine especially if it’s less than $25.
>>11916196Unironically this is all I want. I could hit every pose I need to with this. The only characters I’d need with butterflies would be flash and nightwing
>>11916223I hope not. Even with all the articulation it had, Icons still felt limited in its posing because of the way they engineered some of those joints. I had issues with my classic Aquaman's torso cracking open from the pressure of moving that torso crunch and ended up having to glue it back together. Mattel's recent output for He-Man feel far more sturdy by comparison, so I would hope that's essentially what we'll be getting for DC.
>>11916231Different era of plastic and once again I’m talking about the mid tier line. Hopefully the ultimate line is like Motu chronicles
>>11916239MOTU Chronicles is $27. Make the DC line the same at $27 bucks. Or I don't buy either DC or Marvel figures going forward.
>>11916248The difference is having 2 lower price options and then a deluxe collector line.
>>11916135Superman found out Joker replaced his Superman costume's cloth texture with that of a basketball.
>>11916267This It’s his grateful gaze
>>11915058How the hell is Mattel able to sell 6” DC action figures for only $12.99 a pop, while Marvel Legends typically have an MSRP of almost $30? DC Premiere has to be a loss leader for Mattel, I’m damn sure of it.
>>11916347because you are getting more ripped off on “collector” figures than you want to admit
My Batman and Cat Woman blokees finally came in and I spent like 3 hours putting them together. Batman wasn't too bad, getting the cape on was the worst part but putting together Catwoman was excruciating. Some parts are fucking microscopic and snapping some of her smallest parts together was so annoying. But overall now that they're complete they do look quite nice. I can't wait for Superman and Joker now.
>>11916381
Less than 24hrsSee you on the other side brothers
>>11916347Part of it is part count. Figures with more points of articulation have more individual parts per figure. It costs money to produce the tooling and the molds for those parts. That's where the majority of the cost comes from, creating the tooling and molds. More parts, equals more molds. More molds equal higher prices. It's not rocket science. Does that account for the entirety of the discrepancy? No, the rest comes from the fact that companies know that retarded faggots like you and I will always pay them for another Batman or Superman action figure.
>>11916435Oops, I think you forgot to include a reaction pic.
>>11916445Not him but here's the thing: there isn't THAT big a difference in piece count from those vs MLs to justify a jump from 13 to 27. Especially since some MLs skimp on articulation still, like some female figures missing waist cuts or that Elsa Bloodstone with single jointed elbows.I do think some of what they are doing with the low price is trying to draw buyers into the line to hook them and then they will tank the paint and quality later. Most lines seem to do this. They start off looking like a bigger value, then they cheap out. MOTU Masterverse originally had double jointed elbows on female figures and then moved to single jointed later as a small example.
>>11916473>Not him but here's the thing: there isn't THAT big a difference in piece count from those vs MLs to justify a jump from 13 to 27.I'm aware, that's why I only said it was part of it. The other part being corps know they can charge just about whatever they want and retards will still pay them, me included. >>11916473>I do think some of what they are doing with the low price is trying to draw buyers into the line to hook them and then they will tank the paint and quality laterThat certainly could be something they're doing with the Core line. Make it an easy entry point for people with it's low price, but then entice people who want more with higher priced, more robust offerings. Bandai does it with Dragon Ball SHF figures pretty regularly now. They'll release a fairly basic Goku or Vegeta or something for like $35, make it available at Target and Walmart to get people to impulse buy them, then, after they get a couple of different Goku and Vegeta forms they then want a Frieza or a Cell or a Beerus for them to fight, and then they'll need Gohan and Piccolo to go help them out, but then they're making the Ginyu Force and holy shit I 'member those guys they were great! And all of a sudden you're 10 pre-orders deep at $80 a pop. It's a smart business model and I wouldn't be shocked if Mattel wasn't doing something similar by releasing the Core class stuff first, enticing people and getting them hyped up for the collector stuff. I for one, would've had far less confidence in what they were doing for the collector line if I didn't have the chance to grab one of the Core figures and see that for $13, it's a pretty good toy.
DC premier Robin with Robincycle is $12.99 on Amazon.
>>11916451Go back
>>11916507meant for >>11916435
>>11916399yeah the cape is tricky but i found catwoman to be the smoother build
>>11916119He looks kinda short.
Raven just got shipped out
how much longer until the steamy leak plops
>>11916611From China or an e-tailer? If Amazon is sending out mcfiggies before BBTS now when I just swapped to BBTS because Amazon was late a bunch I'm going to whistle like a tea kettle.
>>11916641Not the raging faggot, but Amazon has been shipping out before BBTS for a while now.
>>11916641From McFarlane Toys. Yeah I think Amazon is last on the list of retailers McFarlane pieces things out to, I don't think I've ever had a McFarlane Amazon preorder get fulfilled. GameStop gets theirs first, then BBTS, then Amazon and Walmart get whatever's left over seems to be the way.
>>11916615The leaks already dropped dumbass.
>>11916647wheres matts uber line?
>>11916644Ah ok makes sense they'd get first dibs on their own stuff. If they weren't insane with shipping prices I'd order from them.
>>11916650oct 8
>>11916647he means pics
>>11916655Yeah GameStop gets their stuff personally delivered by Todd or something. When the shipment of Killing Joke Jokers and Page Punchers Supergirls was allegedly stolen by Somalian pirates, only GameStop got their shipment, and it was coincidentally right after the co-founder of McFarlane Toys bought GameStop.GameStop and BBTS are probably the safest places to order from, plus BBTS sorts out the regular and the chase variants. They probably got pissed at all the returned variants they were getting back with no regulars to ship out, so they were losing money on shipping and burning customers so I think they had a big bad talk with Todd about fucking people around and that shit stopped immediately. BBTS has been fulfilling all my McFarlane orders lately.
>>11916662Why are you spamming non DC toys in the DC thread? Why do you act like this?
>>11916708Are you pissy because of Hellboy or Ro Laren? Because both have appeared in comics published by Detective Comics Comics.Not that you'd know, casual ass bitch.
>>11916722None of which have anything to do with DC.
>>11916732Oh haha yeah except for the DC logo in the top left corner and the covers by capeshit artists like Adam Hughes. If we're going to play this game then anything pre-nu52 shouldn't be allowed either. But we both know this is just another autistic fit you're having because you want to come up with arbitrary gay ass rules instead of discussing toys.
>>11916742with that retarded logic, why don't we just start posting marvel characters here and mortal kombat and every other crossover, god does dressing up as a women lower ur IQ?
>>11916742>then anything pre-nu52 shouldn't be allowed eitherAnd?
>>11916739>>11916740>>11916742Nice meltdown you fucking queen.
Cool
>>11916764What's this "we" business? We're 100 posts into the thread and no one else has posted their toys. Don't worry, tomorrow is going to be a deluge of samefaggotry over more unpainted Batmans, this time with extra batarangs for only $39.99 plus shipping, taxes, tips, tariffs, and Matt's Playhouse membership fees. You'll have plenty of Batman toys to bitch about being too expensive or not having the right kind of ankle articulation or something.
>>11916808>He posted it again Only someone with severe autism keeps posting the same image over and over like this. And my Ra's just shipped out from Amiami so I'll post pics when I get him. Goddamn queen.
>>11916764Bionicle is canon welcome to the new Bionicle general I guess.
>>11916817Does the transitive property apply here? Like DC published Star Trek comics at one point. But then there was also a Star Trek comic where the Enterprise crew had an adventure with the X-Men. Does that mean this can also be a 2nd Marvel General?
>>11916808everytime u post that pic, all I can picture is u playing with ur toys like this.
>>11916808I don't own any toys.
>>11916820For Bionicle it's a little deeper because that page implies its like a universe in DC or something I'm too lazy to find a non crusty image. Not that it actually matters because it's just a Easter egg and wasn't supposed to mean anything but I had to post it.I was also just skimming through the thread thought it was a joke and didn't realize it was a serious VF spergout lmao
If the pic features at least one character from the movies, comics, or cartoons then it counts as canon and is allowed to be posted here. This has always been the way.
inb4 it's a trap to ban us for being offtopic
Didn't he also go on a rant about Tomb Raider last thread too?
>>11916742The hell is wrong with you?
Hey Jarret who’s your favorite captain? Do you think Mattel will get the license back so we can fit them with our dc characters from Mattel?

What about unlicensed figures of characters that appeared in DC Comics?
Its fucked up no one has done a jared fig yet #justiceforjared
>>11916936Yeah, but McFarlane did do a figure of Blake Griffin. You know Blake Griffin who managed to thwart Gorilla Grodd that time?

IGN just revealed the first premium figure. Batman Hush Diorama. $100. >It's hardly surprising that Mattel would choose Batman of all characters to kick off the DC Premium line. This particular figure is based on the 2002-03 storyline Batman: Hush and the artwork of Jim Lee. It features no fewer than 34 points of articulation, so you should be able to get some very dynamic superhero poses out of it.>This isn't a standard action figure release, however. It's a larger bundle that includes a rooftop diorama base and a light-up Bat-Signal accessory. The figure also includes a posable, wired fabric cape and interchangeable hands.
>>11917297
>>11917301Box
>>11917297More Hushlop
>>11917297>>11917301>>11917304Based more hush
>>11917304
>>11917301>>11917304>>11917297This looks GREAT. Holy shit, Todd absolutely btfo! I personally, don't think I'll be getting this particular release, I already have both Mafex Hush Batmen, a couple different gargoyle stands, a Bat signal and a rooftop diorama. So this particular set is just a hard sell for me personally, but holy shit it looks great, and $100 for all that isn't terrible imo. Can't wait to see what the regular releases look like, give me Lanterns, some Flashes and I'll be a happy boy.
SOON
Ill wait for something thats not hushwank to make my judgment
>>11917325There will be Absolute for you. Or some movie slop. But you will never get your comics smiling Superman in red diapers.
>>11917325Hey, just because it's something you're not as interested in Hush stuff, I'm personally skipping it because I already have a Hush Batman and rooftop diorama setup but I can't deny how good this looks.
>>11917301Why can’t they get a guy to pose the figure? This looks so fucking lame like he has a 2x4 up his ass. You know what I don’t give a shit I’m getting the lpzz anyways.
>>11917297It's a Marvel Legend. Stupendous.
>>11917339Because then you would see how limited its articulation is
BASED MATT
>>11917345It’ll do what I need it to do lol
People are cheering a $100 Marvel Legend with a diorama. Why not just buy an import? The diorama is worthless.
Uh guys this is the legacy line. There’s a whole other tier called ultimate. I don’t think this is the main collector line.
>>11917356Which is will be 7 inch and overpriced.
at least he has a wired cape>>11917351No ones getting that dio they just know eventually he'll be single carded
LETS FUCKING GO
>>11917356its a hundred bucks dude its aimed at collectors
>>11917361He will have a lot less paint and no wired cape single carded
>>11917365Got proven wrong real quick lol
>>11917301Blokeefags in shambles
>>11917375
>>11917375ohnononono that cape
>>11917375Once again this is a legacy figure. The price is because of the diorama. They just showed off the ultimate.
>>11917375That is some impressive pose
>>11917383Is the Ultimate $200?
>Legacy versions of the characters will be standard priced, and come with essential accessories. >Legacy Ultimate will be a higher price point, come loaded with accessories and interchangable parts
>>11917390See>>11917391
>>11917391Similar pricepoints to other Mattel collectors lines.
Batman is up for preorder
>>11917297$100 for this pretty much a dealbreaker. I’ll be generous and say this is maybe a $30 figure with an extra $5 of paint on it, so that’s a $65 chunk of plastic. I’ll stick with the lpzz, thanks.
>>11917385lmao
>>11917399Yes. It lights up and is a fogger. It’s a display piece.
Example of what a regular Legacy figure will come with. Previous images were what to expect from an Ultimate.>Legacy: signature weapon, one or two pairs of hands>Ultimate: multiple weapons, three or four sets of hands, multiple head sculpts, swappable limbs possibly
Better look at the articulation scheme
I think Batman looks solid, better than the average ML, but it's also pretty cookie cutter, especially after Chronicles features import style joints and the elbows and knees, lower neck articulation, ball joint wrists, etc.
>>11917402Torso articulation looks like garbo
>>11917309>using the shitty masterverse joints instead of the chronicles ones why
>>11917410Price point will be the deciding factor on if im disappointed or not. If legacy is under $30 then it means legends are kill
>>11917415Similar price points to the existing collectors lines Mattel does.
>>11917418I want to know what legacy is priced at compared to ultimate
>>11917421Legacy = WWE Elite seriesUltimate = WWE UltimatesShould be similar to that.
Anyone complaining about the price of this is retarded. Just don’t buy it and wait for the single release. The $100 is clearly mainly in the elaborate diorama
So where are new figures?
>>11917422No I understand that but I want to know the exact prices
>>11917415>big tiddies will be the deciding factor on if im disappointed or not.fixed it for you.
>>11917410Feels like they made them shittier on purpose to fit in better with MLs, they must think ML collectors are the main audience for all capeshit. Its strange to see them making advances with other lines and regressing here.
>>11917430Legends aren't shitty
>>11917402>no neck articulation> no ball waist> fugly kneesIt is over before it began.
>>11917433Not if these are under $30
>>11917432Stop hyper focusing on one word you mouth breather, I’m saying this is a clear step back from chronicles and surely there must be an intentional choice there.
>>11917335its a fine figure i guess i just have chronic hush fatigue
>>11917437There is literally no space there for a gordon or a catwoman or a nightwing. Like it only fits batman, the stair is even blocked by the batsignal. what was Gordon thinking?
>>11917431https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3lnX8ri2Tug
>>11917444You don’t know how smoke detectors work lmfao
>>11917436wwe elite are still $25 but I imagine wrestling is a lot less expensive of a license
>>11917447If they can sell this for $25 then it’s fucking over for marvel legends
>>11917448I don’t think you’ll get the wired cape or shading at $25 but even without those it’d still be a better value than what Hasbro is doing now
>>11917297>>11917301>>11917309>>11917448>butterfly joints>no ugly U style torso hinge>toe joints>soft wired capeholy fuck it even mogs marvel legends
for under 30 that Batman looks good, if it's above 30 Mattel what are you doing, you were onto something with your new MOTU figures.Still better than Todd though.
>>11917450>still be a better value than what Hasbro is doing nowHow though?
Blokees still loolk like the better form factor, bang for your buck and value to me. I enjoy assemble them way more. There's no way Mattel can Blokees low ptice
>>11917456$25 is significantly lower than $30 anon
>>11917459Not with that pencil neck.
>>11917459>Blokees still loolk like the better form factorare you sure about that?
The hype already died. Its joever. 10 posts at most.
>>11917402Looks good but I don't like the thigh cuts and have no interest in the display. I can't wait to see more though.
>>11917463I will give to blokees the belt, its incredib ly detailed. The elbows. And the clothing folds.The cape si shit. The face is shit. The pencil neck is shit. And the size, 5 inches, is shit.
>>11917464lol fuck off retard Mattel won
>>11917463Blokeez
>>11917467his proportions are fucked, he's so lankey he should be a playable character in Donkey Kong 64
My only complaint are the joint cuts but if it’s $25 I’ll forgive it
Where the fucking toys?
>>11917472Heh
>>11917448if you threw in an extra head it would be perfect, I'll even accept just having 1 pair of extra hands instead
>>11917456 If you remove the wired cape and shading: toe joints, adequate torso articulation, heroic physique, functional butterflies. If it has a ball waist then there’s another point on how it utterly destroys legendslop.
>>11917472Gorilla Grodd fucking when Mattel
>>11917475On Mattel's pati.o
>>11917467youre looking at a CG cape on that anon's photo lmao. also the blokees is 15.5 which is true 1/12 to Batman's height whereas mattel is 16.5 which is something like 1/11
>>11917410>>11917409what going on the neck
>>11917483Holy shit what a blunder I hope someone got fired from that one
>>11917484Cape recess
>>11917448>6.5
>>11917460Marvel Legends are still $27.99
>>11917495>he doesn’t know
>>11917409>>11917410the only things left to modernize are the elbow, knee, and thigh swivel joints. the elbow and knee joints could be pieces that tuck into the limbs like the imports do rather than being a straight cut.
>>11917475They said they’re not revealing any now until January and that you have to wait until Spring to get them.
>>11917486>>11917493i mean technically they never said it was gonna be 1/12....did they?
>>11917498Prove me wrong
>>11917502This but we already know what the figures are from leaks. Now we know the articulation setup.
>>11917502Really? lol what's even point of all this hype? For the fucking batman hush everyone already has and overpriced diorama?
>>11917475Up your ass
>>11917508I mean, now we know what we're getting. And honestly it looks great. I'm hyped
Here’s what a flash would look like
really ugly knees and elbows on that batman and a step backwards in wrist/ankle articulation. underwhelming but expected.
Biggest hurdle will be the female figures. Haven't seen a good buck from either Mcfarlane or Hasbro. They're always lacking some meat.
>collector line figs finally shown>go to preorder >$100What the absolute fuck is that pricing? Who the fuck even asked for an $80 playset? I just want the fig, are they seriously forcing you to buy the barbie playset to get the figure? This is fucking retarded if this is their plan with the line then it's DoA. I might as well just buy Mafex figs at this point.I must be retarded for expecting a $20-$30 pricetag for these figs
Gross. Im sticking with the Todd father to the bitter end. Enjoy your Mattel slop.
>>11917534Then don’t fucking buy it you whiny bitch. Just wait for the single release holy shit.
>>11917430>they must think ML collectors are the main audience for all capeshit. They pretty much are besides the few who buy imports and the few who grudgingly accepted Todd's 7in scale
>>11917534Are you actually being serious right now? They outright said this is a special release and not how figures will be released. You little retards need to stop freaking out over every little thing without looking into things more, it's fucking embarrassing.
>>11917542>>11917538
>>11917544You guys don't read do you? I'm calling him stupid because he doesn't realize they will release this figure on it's own. I hate how stupid you all are.
I read LPZZ Absolute Batman got delayed, how true is that?
>>11917532Are there even enough girls to fill the line? I'm not DCfag so little know about DC girls. There are WW, Supergirl, Harly and Catwoman I guess. But Mafex and Revoltech already made those. Blokkes are also guaranteed.
>>11917546Yeah no shit Im agreeing with those posts I quoted
>>11917546Hysteria aside, I can see why people are irritated. "How much are these figures going to cost?" is a major question, and this reveal goes out of its way not to answer it.
>>11917499They are not modernizing anything else. This is the set up they decided upon.
Better than any dc multiverse figure Todd released
>Bruce broke his back again and can't do Jim Lee poseslimited range or bad posing?
>>11917398>>11917431>>11917437It looks genuinely great but also>HushFucking kek we'll be stuck with this forever huh.
>>11917548I can think around a dozen decently popular ones that I expect to have in the line at some points.
>>11917514>>11917521It's just AI genned MLs. Boring
>>11917559Truth
>they thought mattel was going to do well
>legacy $100>Maximum legacy ultimate series $200where's the single card/box figures
>>11917568Not doing this today faggot. Mattel won.
>>11917555The $100 is an answer, just a nonspecific one. "We will milk you collectors for every cent we can." That's what it says.
>>11917569Im so sick of this shit already You're all fucking retarded
>>11917574They literally said that the line will be comparable to currently existing Mattel collectors lines, go clutch your pearls somewhere else Martha.
>>11917570If it was just the figure for $25 they would have.
>>11917575I swear they all act deliberately retarded on purpose just as an excuse to get mad at something. I'm getting real sick of it too.
>>11917576That's nonspecific. People want the exact price for a standard figure.
>>11917555Mystery prices aside my issue is distribution Are we forced to used their shitty mattel creations site with absurdly high shipping that even puts MTS to shame to secure a figure or will they be at all the usual places day 1? We bitched about MTS but honestly with their constant $10/$20 off and MTS10 coupons it honestly wasn't as bad as people say it was.As of now their distribution is fucking dogshit, their premier figs are technically sold online but they're either all out of stock or their prices are marked up to as high as $20.I'm already dreading seeing a character I like locked behind a $100 fisherprice playset, exclusive to mattels site and sold out because of scalpers.
>>11917581Between $25 and $28 most likely. Chill the fuck out.
>>11917537I wasn’t certain if this was AI or not when I first saw it.
idk chat starting your domestic line with a $100 dollar batman figure just puts me off. it's not even chinese.
>>11917514>>11917521these aichuds look like they have to take a shit
>>11917585it's a display piece with the stand just wow people, that batman is 3000% getting a regular release.Also AVGN Bat and Mike Joker when Mattel?
>>11917585I’d do it if it was Neal Adams Batman, but I don’t know if I care enough about a Bat Signal and rooftop. I can buy Batman dioramas already on https://extreme-sets.com/. Also it feels like everyone can just wait for the standard release.
>>11917582If they can't handle estimates for proper distribution of the kids line, a lower quantity produced collector line could be even harder for them to keep in stock
>>11917585It's a convention exclusive that's meant to kick off the line. It's not supposed to be a standard thing, you people are so stupid it hurts.
>>11917590The paint will be toned down and the wired cape removed, two of the only things different from MLs. The toe hinges may remain though
>>11917600Nta but no one likes or wants them to do convention exclusives. Hard to get expensive product is what makes collecting horrible
>>11917560a little worring with that ab crunch. maybe its just incompetent posing
What makes mattel think that anyone would buy their legend-tier hush batman when this one is coming out? They should have changed their plans once they saw what lpzz was doing. If they are smart they will not do a hush superman.
>>11917607Well Mattel's has an actual neck for one
>>11917560limited range due to all the bad joint designs. The legs torso and neck look very limited. Butterfly cup shoulders won't do anything because the chest is so big. Why people are saying this looks good is beyond me. Once they have it in hand they'll see how limited all the joints are since they can't imagine by looking at the pics.
>>11917604>Hard to get expensive product>Batman>Hard to getlmfao
>>11917607Why does he have a utility belt full of pouches shaped like puckered buttholes?
>>11917600>It's not supposed to be a standard thingit should be if they want me to start a collection.
.
>>11917607mattel will be in walmarts, ljizz is scalper exclusive
>>11917607>that capeif this is over $50, i laugh
Yeah, I'm good on this particular set, but can't wait to see what else we get from Mattel.
>>11917626That’s an alternate unwired one
>>11917402that torso is literally DCUC all over again. are those actual proper butterfly joints, or just those..whatever they are that Todd does?at least the cape is wired.
>>11917607>What makes mattel think that anyone would buy their legend-tier hush batman when this one is coming out?if it's priced around 25-30 then many will happily get it because it will in their local stores and not have to import or deal with BBTS
>>11917633Imports also often do pseudobutterflies like Todd's
>>11917410>especially after Chronicles features import style joints and the elbows and knees, lower neck articulation, ball joint wristsThey aren't all that great, though. Mattel is still gonna Mattel.
>>11917611>limited range due to all the bad joint designsSame with their Chronicles line. Pay nearly 3 times the price of Core for ankle articulation.
>>11917514
We got dc legends with wired capes and balls at the waist and they’ll be priced like wwe elites. Complain all you want I won.
$24.99
>DC Premier $12.99>DC Legacy $24.99>DC Ultimate $35.99
prices yanked out of my ass btw
>$30 for a blokees kit if you don't already have a Batman>$18 for a bat signal toy>$5 for enough foam to make little rooftops until the end of timeThere is no sane reason to spend $100 on that set. The backdrop is just cardboard. Just make your own and it'll actually have room for more than one figure.As expected, Mattel's opening move is lame and for braindead hoarders with more money than sense.
I don't do toy photography so I don't care for getting charged more for wired capes or toe joints, toss that shit to the bin. let clout chasers pay more for gimmicks and leave the collectors alone.
blokees are not action figures
>>11917696a fact collectors choose to forget when talking about action figures
>>11917678what the hell is the point of making AI images that don't even look like what Mattel will put out? Joints and sculpt are different. Stop.
>>11917685>butterfly shoulders that won't work due to no range>legs struggle to get into any pose. The thigh is already stretching the waist part>rubbery waists are back, just like Todd's figs>Ugly torso joint Is that a win? Literally almost anything is better than McFarlane but these don't look any better than the crap Hasbo is shitting out.
>>11917720>$24.99
>>11917720>these don't look any better than the crap Hasbo is shitting out.That's Mattel for you. I think it looks okay other than the sculpt being off but I'm not sure what you guys were expecting.
>>11917724> not sure what you guys were expectingThey could have improved on Hasbro's ML at least a little. The elbow and knee joints like Chronicles, better sculpting. These look exactly like ML. This sculpt even looks more simplified and smoother. No wrinkles or much detail at all. Chronicles has almost all unique sculpts, much more detail, improved joints.>>11917723Have they announced a price? These will prob be $27 which is where the standard Hasbro fig is now too. They didn't raise the price of Marvel yet. SW just went up to $30 tho.
