Can’t wait for Mattel kino

>everyone who collects DC hates Todd now
>ninja turtles collectors don't want to touch Todd's new toys with a ten foot pole
>even the mortal kombat community is bracing for the $60 Elite Edition scam shit
>nobody cares about Spawn anymore
>Todd's shills in full damage control mode on social media

Is it just sour grapes or is this how McFarlane Toys dies?

Since the JLA and Teen Titans are forever out of my grip, I have to ask what are the essential JSA members to get if one wants to have the full team?

>>11521379
There are no real "core Justice Society" members, per say. BUT in general, Alan Scott, Wildcat, and Jay Garrick are considered the big three in the JSA and are always present in all of their incarnations.

But in general, if you want to build a JSA roster/team, here are my suggestions:

Alan Scott
Jay Garrick
Wildcat
OG Dr Fate
Hourman
Earth 2 Wonder Woman (not yet out)
Spectre

Sadly there is no Earth 2/Golden Age Hawkman. The standard release Hawkgirl is Kendra, who joined the team in the late 90s revival though the chase figure (a vague evergreen Golden/Silver Age/DCAU Hawkwoman) could pass as a Golden Age Hawkgirl.

In terms of more modern members, you have Power Girl, Mr Terrific II, Jack Knight, and a couple of figures that can pass as other modern members: McFarlane Hourman can also pass as his son, who joined the team in the 00s, the Black Adam movie Atom Smasher can work as a stand-in for comic Atom Smasher, and Injustice Khalid Doctor Fate for the current year JSA Doctor Fate (though to be fair, I wouldn't bother with him since OG Dr Fate is way cooler).

The wildcard is the upcoming Dr Midnight figure; we don't know if it's golden age Doctor Midnight or the female Doctor Midnight, who Todd created.

Also, while Sandman IS a member of the JSA, he's pretty forgettable and doesn't do much of anything on the team. So you CAN skip him if you want.

So, whats going on dc gen? Just waiting for the lastest batch of pre orders to be fufilled or has all the movie and sdcc stuff just brought alot of visitors over?
The knightfall mezco looked cool, someone must of studied a few kelly jones panels before taking the promo pics.

>>11521798
I have no preorders from McFarlane left and I don't expect to have anymore unless Black Canary or Poison Ivy look good for the price, or Cyborg Superman gets a decent variant.

>>11521798
Sandman arrives Monday.
I've been rereading Starman and waiting for a preorder date for him and Zatanna.
Pretty sure we're all just waiting for Mattel to announce their first wave.

>>11521255
>guy who's never seen a mattel toy: Can’t wait for Mattel

>>11521912
Some of us want to give Mattel money just to spite Todd.

>>11521912
Seems like he’s seen at least 2 ripsters

>>11521921
I want Todd out of business.

>>11521921
>>11521978
you two are weird homosexuals

>>11521980
Shut up faggot. You’re the one making up gay fantasies in your head about men because they don’t like another man.

>>11521989
>making up gay fantasies in your head about men
Yes....Todd's toxin is working...

>>11521921
Mattel prices will go through the roof just like everyone else's most likely.

>>11522078
Mattels factories aren’t in china

>>11522082
Look at Vietnam's tariff rate. 20%. Chinas is 30%.

>>11522078
Don't care. Fuck Todd.

>>11522132
Todd has been terrible at communicating this. I don't know why he doesn't say "If you don't like these prices, neither do I, but they're all due to tariffs." Instead all there was was a small generic press release earlier in the year that prices would be adjusting.

When might we see Mattel's first info about their DC figures?

>>11522176
Was McFarlane allowed to publicly show prototypes while Mattel still released figures under the license? If someone recalls that might give us an estimate or answer.

>>11522176
>>11522179
will it be 6 inch? will they have pez dispenser ab crunches like marvel legends or something a bit more modern and effective like jada?

>>11522186
No one knows yet. Nothing has been shown, only rumors that are entirely unsubstantiated.

>>11522176
Toyfair

>>11522186
They will be 6 inches.

>>11522186
they would have to be really stupid to not make them 6 inch as its where most of the demand is

it would be super funny if they were the 5.5 MOTU style just to fuck over both ML and todd collectors though

Spinmaster 89 Batmobile.

>>11522233
The Batman figure sucks but the car looks good

>>11521989
literally nobody did that but you just now in your todd-obsessed imagination

>>11522295
It’s okay to be gay anon but you need to stop being such a fucking faggot

>>11522179
we didn't see figures until right before they hit stores

>>11522133
The price isn't the issue. It's the fact physical products are being arbitrarily marked up because they include a coupon for monopoly money for an NFT scam only 20 people on the planet care about, most of them being McFarlane Toys employees who are trying to personally profit off selling their digital shit.
Nobody wants this digital shit, nobody is asking for Elite Editions, this is just something we have to put up with because they know they can get away with exploiting customers.
Fuck Todd. Fuck his employees. Fuck his toy company. It's all going to whither and die when they lose the DC license.

>>11522419
is it Todd's fault Trump is raising tariffs?

>>11522428
This has nothing to do with tariffs.

>>11522233
Looks like the same one from the flash movie but with added turrets. Its very undersized and hollow junk

Finished painting Phantom Lady and made a display for her. I'm thinking about using green cellophane to make a visor but I'm waiting for Christmas stuff to cycle into stores so I can look at different shades in person instead of buying random stuff off Amazon.
The buildings were printed by a buddy and are a 3D map of Washington DC. I used google maps to color match the buildings and locations of trees.

>>11521110
>Useless Faggot

You're going to miss Todd's outrageous shenanigans when he loses dc

>>11522777
No. I will never long for the days of Todd or look back fondly on his time with the license. Cuck.

>>11522230
>>11522233
What scale? I'll cop if the scale fits better for my figs

>>11522819
Which company did that venom came from?

>>11522857
It's the monster ML one. I just re sculpted the head

>looking at Todd's new future releases
>At least for as far as he can before he lose the license

I don't get it

Someone must have told Todd before. like 90% of their figures look like they are wearing a diaper.

There is just something wrong with how they design the crotch piece. The only thing that I can think of it's how far stretched down to the thigh and how thick the plastic is and how high the waist go

I know Todd likes to keep his figure in streamline shape but they looks horrible really getting the way of movement.
Is it really hard to design the figure in more closer in line with an action figure?

>>11522543
>>11522545
Looks great

Garbage car from Garbage movie up on Wednesday the 13th on Toddy's super site.

Serial Killer level shrine you got there Jarret.

>>11522879
And Todd still made it a one seater
The rc is a million times better and set at $100 on Amazon for almost 2 years.

>>11522871
These aren't action figures to Todd. They are...ART!

>>11522879
Why did he waste all his new mold money on so many cars that few want and that clearance out? The only one a lot of people wanted was Batman 89/Returns

>>11522875
Thanks. Too bad the only way I'll ever get a new figure of her is through those retro public domain hero lines.
Maybe Mattel will answer my prayers.

>>11522890
I was pissed when she showed up in the New History of the DC Universe but they gave her the wrong colored goggles and gauntlet. The only toy of her has yellow goggles, too.

I can confirm that even the cyborg supermen in my ghetto walmarts sell out in less than 4 hours

>>11522895
What makes you like the character so much?

Classic Starman and Phantom Lady are at the top of my Mattel wish list.

>>11522899
Usually characters are either mythic like Superman and aren't meant to be relatable, you just supposed to look up to them, or they're more psychological like Batman where some catastrophic event in their life drives them to fight crime. They usually have some kind of edge with powers or are super intelligent detectives or inventors.

Phantom Lady doesn't really have a dramatic origin, she just steals a fancy flashlight and puts on a costume to fuck up the bad guys. No powers, not the smartest girl in the world, and her gadgets kinda suck, but she's this unstoppable force that picks fights with serial killers and Nazi spies.

What is a super hero? Is it just a power fantasy or is it about choosing to stand up and do the right thing on principle even when you know you're outgunned? In a lot of ways she's got bigger balls than most of the other heroes in comics who can shoot webs or ride around in tanks they keep in their secret bat caves.

>>11522902
Comics have never been worse than when they were all just ww2 propaganda

>>11522908
I'll take that over everything always being multiverse bullshit. It's like a breath of fresh air reading older comics, they actually focus on character and developing a story instead of finding new ways to retcon retcons for a fresh new reboot.

>>11522908
You havent followed much in the past 15 years have you?

>>11522930
The ww2 propaganda has done more damage than woke era comics.

>>11522961
The WWII propaganda was unironically some of the best parts of comics.

>>11522961
>>11522963
DC has always been propaganda. Their golden boy right now is former CIA glowie Tom King. Everyone knows WB is a spook house.

>>11522961
>build the industry
vs
>destroy the industry
you’re an idiot

>>11522908
>>11522961
There was barely any actual WW2 propaganda in the peak war years. All those WW2 era covers you see are JUST covers and rarely reflected the interiors. They didn't want to trivialize the war when it became clear it was going to be more costly than they thought. Graham Nolan did an interesting talk about this on his podcast but I can't find it right now.

>>11523007
Graham Nolan doesn't know what he's talking about.

>>11522879

>pull the wool over your own eyes
>JR'BOB' Dobbs

how much will the Mattel DC 1/12 like cost?

>>11523046
Their Masterverse line is 23.76 on amazon.

>>11523047
Can't ever trust amazon on pricing due to their algorithmic pricing. Last i saw their official msrp was 21.99 but that may have changed. Need to check mattels site

>>11523054
Either way they're very affordable and there doesn't seem to be much chase variant scalperbait or NFT scam editions.

>>11523055
There is club greyskull where you have to subscribe to order some exclusives from mattel creations

>>11523059
Do preorders instantly sell out? I don't buy He-Man stuff but it seems as accessible as Black Series. A premium subscription isn't a bad idea if you really love the line, especially if that's where they can release deep cuts that would pegwarm in physical stores.

There is something weird about the body on this Batman that I can't put my finger on it. The face is weird too, eyes are too close, he looks like Kilmer's under the hood.

>>11523061
Depends on the item. Some really desirable origins figures sold out fast but there's also plenty of cases of some masterverse stuff getting discounted heavily like Manevillyn and Motherboard, both not classic looks but based on that divisive streaming show

>>11523071
Hes blocky. The face still looks less like Keaton than any release before it. The abs are a different finish than the chest and the diaper. The cape is too short.

I dont see no wire on that cape. No buy.

Man, fuck Toot Mcfartin

>>11523152
Whats your beef with Toot? That his name is close to that Todd McFarlane guy?

Mattel will cost $50 with all those tariffs going up

>>11523165
Nope.

>>11523165
so you're telling me todd is just pricing ahead of the curve? Man's a genius.

So obvious when the Todd Internet Defense Force is here. Fuck off back to your discord.

>>11523204
if he was he would've just gotten out of the toy business

Todd if you're in danger reply to this post three times. We can protect you from the cabal of scammers who hijacked your company.

>>11523229
I don't think Todd knows how to use the internet.

Todd Derangement Syndrome

>only allowed to appear at public events like conventions to promote his products
>only allowed to go to grocery stores if he promotes his products
>only allowed to promote superman movie wave from his bedroom

>physical products are being doubled in cost by his digital cabal to promote an NFT scam they personally profit from

It's so fucking obvious the man is being Stan Lee'd.

>>11523076
Not only that his legs are too long and at top of that looks like he's on heels

>>11523265
No Todd wonders random gamestops and Walmarts by himself all the fucking time. I’ve met him 3 times in two different states. He’s sharp too because he fucking remembered me. The man bought me a snow cone after I said I liked spawn. He is a character but he’s not dementia ridden yet.

>>11523084
big ass head. why is that such a common thing nowadays?

It might fit on the knightfall buck but I’m done kitbashing toddler shit.

Why do people pretend to like this movie?

>>11523459
It began as an interesting detective thriller and then they fell asleep and didn't see the last hour or so

>>11523459
Because
>SOMETHINGS IN MY ASS UMMM AHHH

>>11523459
Because it was dark and moody like Batman should be, without going too "realistic".

>>11523459
it's the funniest batman movie since adam west. it rocks. you're a dweeb kys

>>11523568
"Thumb...drive" was a genuinely good, morbid Batman line

so does anyone in here like toys

>>11523575
that was the exact moment that sold me

>>11523624
I do.
Ive really enjoyed hawkgirl.
That iyo really needs a trash can.

>>11523624
Todd reignited my love of toys with the DC line and he is also the one who has killed it by making the figures impossible to get now.

>>11523760
You WILL love the gray figures!

>>11523879
Go max go!

Dark Archer and Darkstars are now digitally pegwarming at Amazon

im priced out. peace

>>11524159
You don't need to announce your departure like you're at an airport. Just stop buying what you think is too expensive and move on with your life. Some of you act like such little girls.

no u

>>11524289
Beat me to it.

>>11524286
Get over it. All I did was tell anon to stop buying what he thought was too expensive and move on. Why are you all such raging faggots about this? And no, just for you I'm going to keep replying.

>>11524159
I know this was a stupid way to waste money but I'm not even fucking around with him possibly being the next Cyborg Superman.

>>11524360
jfc faggot

>>11524360
That's really nuts, anon. At least try to find him before resorting to scalpers.

>>11524385
Nowhere within me sells new McFarlanes anymore. Walmart even pushed his stuff to an endcap that faces the back wall. Only four months left in the game, only Zatanna and Starman Jack are left.
I'm not playing around.

>>11524385
Toddy has a lot to answer for this fuck up.

>>11524386
Nowhere within 50 miles of me sells new McFarlanes*

>Ok dumbfuck

So what's the next step of your master plan?

>>11524386
>>11524393
Sandman is Target instore exclusive. I assume they will force every Target to carry it. Whether you'd be able to find it or not though is another matter.

>>11523459
No one ever has to pretend to like Batman. Him being DC's best-selling character is already indication enough.

>>11523342
Kek. That's actually pretty neat.

>>11524401
>Him being DC's best-selling character is already indication enough.

>>11524399
My Target doesn't get new McFarlanes anymore and I'm not going to risk him being something like the Question where he jumps up to $100 because only 500 were made.

>>11524408
Interesting, I thought these were pretty standardized. What was the last new McFarlane you saw at your Target? Hourman and Connor or even further back?

>>11524412
They have a comic Two Face and that blue guy with the sword, both lumped together in the toy section. Two Face's spot in the collectibles section has been filled with NECA toys it looks like they're just trying to get rid of the last of their DCMV stuff.

It's over, so I'm just no scope buy it now the first in hand items I see going up on ebay.

>>11524416
Those aren't that far back at least, still from this year--but if they didn't get the shared Superman endcap with Spinmaster that is a bad sign as far as getting any new stuff.

The weirdest encounter I've ever had in a toy section was when I found blue Azrael and Brainiac at Target. A creature who looked like Cyraxx with thinning but long hair, a heavy metal shirt, and a spike collar came around the corner, stopped, looked down at Azrael in my hand, looked up at the empty shelf, looked me in the eyes, then instead of turning and walking away he backed up out of the aisle around the corner he came from.

I knew instantly I couldn't let him have this Azrael. It was sent to this store for me. I've beaten him to Question, a few Supermen, and Eradicator so I know he's either had to find them on ebay or his collection is missing key figures.

Maybe he's so used to me always getting the cherry releases when they come out he's one of the 24 people on the planet hyping up digital releases.

>>11524398
But there was a floorboard on the passenger in the movie anon

>>11524433
Who cares?

>>11524433
You’re going to get stabbed in a parking lot

>>11524438
>>11524433

>>11524451
>Replying to yourself
Bruh

This figure is worth more than a days wages of over 50% of the country.

>>11524459
I'm not paid hourly.

>>11524462
I get paid in sex

>>11524462
But you know how many days you go into work and you simply divide your annual salary by that.

I might bite the bullet and get the “deluxe theatrical” peacemaker. I’m in this weird spot where I like the character but not the show and there’s no telling if we’ll ever get a comic version that isn’t fucking super powers. That mafex peacemaker looks fantastic but obviously no telling when we’ll see that. I think Todd got me one last time.

>>11524440
What's she up to now?

>>11524473
I can’t believe how stupid this general is

>>11524459
I’m about to cash her out. There is no point sitting on this anymore when Mattel is going to come out swinging with a better Wonder Woman and female characters in general.

>>11524475
That's how Todd "Price Hike" McFarlane gets 'em all. He plays it like an ebayer and just undercuts the competition on something imperfect but that you never know if you'll see again. The man seems to live on ebay.

>>11524481
You might want to watch this before you think Mattel is going to make good female figures, their Teela has some...problems:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YNmShSksjQg

>>11524473
Are all of you literal children or what? Do you not know how a salary works?

>>11524515
i like to eat salary with peanut butter

>>11524515
You get paid an annual salary. So you get no OT and have to work as much as needed to do what the company wants. If that's 3000 hours a year, you work 3000 hours a year. If it's 1000 hours a year, you work 1000 hours a year. But factually you know how much you work and can do calculations with that.

>>11524526
So no, you don't.

>>11524509
The problems started with She-Ra and Evil Lyn with the single joint elbows and softer details and I don't expect their female figures to get better all of a sudden. People expecting bangers right out of the gate from Mattel might be in for a rude awakening but we'll see.

>>11524509
Wow it’s so over. Thanks for showing me that video of a bald flabbergasted 50 year old man anon

>>11524526
Shut up wagie

>>11524459
Which country? Maybe youve misspelled county? They call counties parish in lousianna or is it districts? Either way we all need to understand the country you failed to mention in your declaration. Do you have graphs or other illustrating information behind this conclusion on a, as yet, poor country youve yet to establish.

>>11524532
>
She-Ra looked bad too.

Tomorrow no man’s land Batman arrives and I finish my last mcfarlane kitbash. I’m almost free bros.

>>11524433
is that a wholesome little kiwi farms reference right there?

$500 for two Beast Boys.

>>11524459
If you're not making more than that in a day then get another job.

>>11524532
She-ra was bad, Teela will be bad and Evil Lyn, even after people got brainwashed by the sculpt and headsculpt, realize--its still bad that she lost her arm range.

>>11524570
The figure is worthless for play or posing, so why buy it?

I wonder if anyone here collects the lower 6" POA Super Friends and Batman lines and given the price hike what they feel about it?

>>11524570
I thought you were kidding. The goddamn chase is going for anywhere from $150-300+. Holy shit, fuck Todd. Can't even end this line with decency.

>>11524961
I wouldn't buy those for $5. $22.99 is laughable.

>>11524961
I got the first wave but I’m not continuing at this price. $20 was already pushing it. I’d probably make an exception for a Hawkman tho.

>>11524961
They’re actually 10 poa

>>11524979
Only 150-300? That means Todd has kind of failed, because we know from Toyshiz only a number in the low thousands were made (did he say 2000 or 2000 of each variant?). If the figure was any good, a quantity that low in existence would lead to far higher prices if the figure was at all desirable.

Very disrespectful of McFarlane to make a figure like this at this time.

>>11525073
Can’t believe he’s actually dead

>>11525073
Im already mad i didnt get one.

I feel like with the way tooling is used at McFarlane now, someone is making their DC dreams come true, even if those dreams don't sell to the wider public--kind of a S7 Brian situation. But that person definitely isn't Todd given we know Todd's tastes which were more in line with the early years of the line.

Now we see new tooling to properly make a good looking version of a very obscure character as a McF Toy Store exclusive. We also see many 7in scale Batmobiles from all kinds of different eras even though mostly besides the '89 Batmobile they went to clearance. Yet meanwhile the regular figures languish with poor, improper reuse, corners cut, and inflated prices.

>>11525291
Who gives a shit anymore? McFarlane Toys is a dead man walking. I'm looking forward to this general discussing a toy company that has toys on shelves, not the weird digital gimmick zombie company McFarlane has become.

It's so funny how some of you act like spurned lovers with a fucking toy company. I don't even collect McFarlane and I find how some of you act here hilarious. Thanks for that.

When people say they want classic looks, what they actually mean is they want the look they grew up on, right? Anything before that is just a curiosity to them, isn't it?

>>11525312
This happens more often with toy companies who have a single 'front man' like Todd or Brian from S7. Because people feel like the company is personified and they 'know' the company. So the company's betrayal hits them harder than Chris Cocks from Hasbro trying to get a few extra yachts for Hasbro investors.

>>11525317
>figure is hideous
that’s it and that’s all, man

>>11525332
The other McFarlane "classic" WW is also hideous >>11524459

>>11525352
the hideousness is in way more than just the face. the Chyna one looks fine otherwise and comes with a bunch of stuff

>>11525377
The knees and bicep cuts are the same for #1 vs Chyna. The bodice looks accurate to comic for the #1 but it looks ugly in the comic as well

>>11525412
One is sculpted the other is a lazy cheap sticker. Stop acting like a retard.

It's a lazy cheap sticker in the comic as well

>>11525646
I can't believe That movie is what Batman became in 2022. Thankfully the toys still primarily draw from the comic air and we can forget. The car just looks like a regular ol 1980s jalopy only souped up. The character doesn't feel like Batman at all. DC really is rudderless. I didn't like the idea when I heard Gigliman was cast as Batman either but he turned out to be able to make me forget he was Ben Affleck. The atmosphere of the movie worked somewhat, but Batman himself didn't.

>>11525662
The Batmobile was the only thing the movie did right. The film was just a terrible knockoff of Batman begins. Ironically the thing Batman begins did wrong was the tumbler.

>>11525662
Ah yes, Ben Affleck, famous for playing the sparkly vampire in high school from the Twilight movies.

>>11525667
I was contrasting Ban as SnyderBatman not feeling right at first but then feeling ok, with Pattinson who never felt right

>>11525671
*Ben as SnyderBatman

ToyGains is tearing McFarlane Toys a new one in his newest review for the price increases.

>>11525698
who?

>>11525698
well I’m convinced!

Got some pretty cool as fuck deals at Ross today. They had two of the White Knight Batmobiles for $20, so I snagged them both; one for me and one for my bro. This thing's nice and big, definitely a steal. I also saw the Omega vs Batman 2-pack for $10, and figures from the Aquaman movie for $6, but I only grabbed Black Manta because I love his design and he turned out to be a fun figure to mess with. Pretty good day for me.

>>11525720
That Batmobile and everything white knight is so fucking gay

>>11525706
One of the many bald toytubers

>>11525317
This is a more niche wonder woman despite it being her original look. I like those wacky stories and art of the marston stuff but maybe its too much for the kids nowadays.
I think the figure looks like crap.

>>11525720
That is the ugliest fucking Batman anything I've ever seen

>>11525317
It's just a shit figure. The black gauntlets and decal on her chest look fucking terrible. Nobody here would want that shit even on clearance.
That's why the OG is a $200 figure now, it isn't lazy or cheap like the other Wondys in the line.

>>11525811
The Death Metal Wondy is the LEAST lazy and you guys all hate it just because its Death Metal.

>>11525812
It is a mystery why shit figures don't sell, huh?

>>11525317
stop being a faggot a email Todd directly you want the Bruce timm justice league wonder woman

>>11525815
Ironic because what sells has zero to do with the quality of the figure and 100% to do with the quality of the source material it was made from.

>>11525665
Begins didn't do anything right. It brought in character who hadn't been done in live action before & made them boring. Even the ninja training sucks because Batman doesn't learn or use any martial arts. The suit was just a modernized stiff Keaton copy. No innovation or desire to stay comic book. The Batman only has potential to get better as the first movie is essentially Year One in spirit. But Matt Reeves & Hollywood have to stop being afraid of being comic book. Otherwise we only get this tacticool slop over & over.

>>11525870
>It brought in character who hadn't been done in live action before & made them boring.
Ra's?

>>11525870
I hate Begins so much. It's actually one of the most boring movies I've had to sit through. I remember laughing at the Dad dying too. The whole "don't cry...don't cry" was so horribly acted.

>>11525828
Why bother? Todd loses the licens at the end of the year and we're already past the date where he can get new figures designed, approved, and made before January.

>>11525931
Todd is supposedly still making figures for the Supergirl movie. Do you know when that is? June 2026. You won't see the end of Toot's line for 10 months still! How many ELITE EDITIONS can he put out to ruin people's day in that time?

>>11525870
Woah I don’t think I’ve ever seen such an awful fucking take

>>11525948
That's a retarded ass rumor to believe in.

>>11525976
It’s not a rumor he’s correct but he’s wrong about the timeframe. The figures will hit shelves 2-3 months before the movie and will be the last dc figures mcfarlane puts out. By late February or early march they’ll be on the boat here. At toyfair in February you’ll seen Mattels first wave.

>>11525984
Do you have a single fact to back this up?
No, you don't. Fuck off.

Swung by my parents' house to rummage for Nite Owl, Comedian, and Rorschach. Nite Owl's moon thingy is missing but I think I can find it with a deeper dive. The articulation is shit but they look pretty cool all together again.

But more importantly, Wesley Dodds arrived today.

He said all that before they lost the license when they assumed they were still going to have it through at least 2027. Legally they cannot sell anything after 2025 ends.

>>11525997
He said it immediately after it was announced they lost the license. Watch from 5 minutes.

>>11525997
>Legally they cannot sell anything after 2025 ends.
Stop talking out of your ass. You have no idea what you’re talking about. The license ends when it’s set to not the stroke of midnight on new years. Where do you idiots come up with this shit. Mcfarlane stops production of dc products in February. Mattel’s first wave will hit shelves in July/August.

Would it kill Todd to give his figures more hands?

Why would batman not come with both closed fist and open hands?
There is like only one that does that from all those figures

>>11526026
woody and buzz energy

>>11526049
>Would it kill Todd to give his figures more hands?
Turns out, yes, yes it would.

>>11526142
you just replied to a picture showing two figures that include six extra hands each

>>11525317
It doesn't look sexy, that's all there is to it

>>11526080

>>11526398
Jarrett board new fag. Lurk moar or just go back

>>11526049
What store has that many mcfarlanes?

>>11525025
I made an exception for the Superman since I grabbed the Lex from the first wave but I have no interest or intention of getting both the Super Friends or the Villains. Even if they were priced at the original Super Powers price of $9.99, a full set of each would be some $200+ and that's not anything I am interested in when I can spend on something else I want - that I would honestly get more enjoyment from, even if fleetingly - like a bottle of Japanese Whiskey.

So spending $600-$750 for a team of heroes and villains from a cartoon that has no connection to my childhood or comic book interests or anything else really - NOPE.

I went down memory lane and found out that the Batman toys I had as kid in the 90's were made by Kenner. Now obviously in my head they are the best toys ever but I would like to hear the opinion of the experts here on how they fare compared to other companies takes on it.

>2 figures with hands
>Both from the new movie

And this supposed to be comforting?

I don't know why it took Todd this long to give his Batman additional hands. Nearly all his Batman figure came with one open hand and a fist and that is it. Yes I know the Open hand is to go with batarang But still

Like the new no man land batman is the only Batman figure I saw that comes with a proper set of hands.

Yeah, too bad you can't just swap black gloved hands from other Batman figures so you can double fist yourself.

>>11526718
Nah, this guy just paid out the nose to get some sweet ass bragging and attention.

Ofcourse ill drive to target on my off day just to make sure though. L

>>11526718
Out of factories and in the hands of scalpers, yes.

Is Sandman the first scalper exclusive?

>>11526730
Todd wouldn't have it any other way

>>11526730
You can on the knightfall buck

>>11526705
Why do they have better selections than us stores?

>>11526815
No that's hal jordan as spectre and blue and black psycho pirate

>>11526886
No shit, a black psycho pirate? Were the faces printed better than the regular release psych pirate?

>>11526913
Blue and black, not just black. There's no faces on this variant.

>>11526049
DCM figures always look hunched over

>>11527004
Just like modern man

>>11526735
Don't bother. I'm just got back and there was fucking nothing just scraps no one else wanted. I did see a lone Dark Archer in the section over by the vidya games.

>>11527076
>>11526735
McFarlane Toys themselves said Sandman is not in Targets until October. So don't bother going unless you're going for something else.

Also if you are only going for the toy, call ahead. It's a far worse feeling to go to a Target after driving like 20 minutes there, 5-10 minutes to go in and check and drive 20 minutes back and get nothing. As opposed to have someone on the phone tell you they don't have it in like 5 minutes.

>>11527103
You live 20 minutes away from your newest Target? I have like 3 within a 10 minute drive. I came qal, to the closest one opin 20 minutes.

>>11527000
Did I mention I think the variant of this guy and Hal as Green Lantern were some McFarlane employee's wet dream because they clearly have lots of paint put into them for what is going to be no benefit to the company really

>>11527115
I have 4 Targets within 20-22 minutes. It's like they're avoiding me.

It's reaching the point where these have to be McFarlane store exclusives because retailers won't take them. The DC Multiverse line is nearing its terminus.

>>11526016
How did you get this two months early?

>>11527285
He paid $60 plus tax and tip for it to a scalper. Come to find out VF is an enabling retard.

This was one of the last posts Bones made before he died.

>>11527304
Literally who?

>>11527304
He’s with the maggots now

>>11527076
But i need frozen french fried potatoes. >>11527103
Oct is what i read as well. Its a bit more than 20 minutes for me, and if you saw the state of the wall with the collector stuff at that store youd see why im likely to call ahead. The actual aisles are nice but that wall is a true cluster fuck. >>11527207
Im kinda hoping this is a joke, hed complete my alan scott family.
Its likely to be a real lulzy experience with the print runs becoming so small as of late, cant imagine what itll be like by christmas.

>>11527304
Well whether he is still with us or not, he's not buying $22 DCMV figures anymore, that's for sure. I wonder, could it be instead that he is not posting just due to being embarrassed over comments like these after the McFarlane price increases? Or is he potentially finally mad at McFarlane like the rest of us for skyrocketing the prices and so is just disgusted with the line and doesn't want to post about it?

>>11527349
Idk man it’s pretty strange to just drop off like that especially because he’s a completionist like dhunter.

>>11527357
What do completionists do when they absolutely cannot find a rare figure? Like Beast Boy. What if someone wanted 2 regular, 2 platinums? That'd be closing in on a thousand dollars just for action figures.

>>11527360
They pay the eBay prices. Dhunter has literally got on his hands and knees begging his audience to find him the figures he needs saying he’d pay msrp and shipping.

>>11527365
That seems like mental illness to me since having a complete collection has no innate value, the innate value is whether you enjoy the figure.

>>11527374
That’s collecting in general

I’m not mentally ill.

>>11527360
I paint armies of miniatures for people and they pay thousands for orcs and elves on top of what they paid for the unpainted figure. Some dudes are into cars and tractors and throwing down a few grand for their next project doesn't even make them blink twice.
Action figures is still a pretty cheap hobby for retards. There's no talent or skill required for opening a box and putting a toy on a shelf.

But is a McFart worth $250? I'd say no but I'm not the guy just trying to finish a Teen Titans team but got raped in the ass by Todd.

>>11527422
>I'm not the guy just trying to finish a Teen Titans team but got raped in the ass by Todd
HEY! THATS ME!!

>>11527207
looks kinda gay

>>11527423
I get it. The Knight family is my favorite corner of the DC universe. Sandman is going to be a gold label target exclusive. Starman Jack Knight is going to be a ruby platinum. I'm seeing a lot of Starman Ted Knight on covers and publicity stuff so if Todd doesn't make one I'm sure Mattel will. Phantom Lady Sandra Knight and Starman Michael Thomas will never ever get figures.

The absolute best I can do is cobble them together from like five different lines with different scales and articulation.

Fuck me if Todd ever made a Phantom Lady, I'd burn whole paychecks to get one.

>>11527429
She’s on the list for Mattel.

>>11527437
I'd say bullshit but she was on the mural in the Justice Gang headquarters in the Superman movie, is in the front row of the cover of New History of DC miniseries #1 and in the interior.

Someone at DC remembers she exists, and Mattel's best move for deep cuts is to make characters Todd never got around to because we needed Kite Man and Detective Chimp.

Old news but I just got this in the mail and damn it’s a 10/10 really fantastic cape

Star girl is also on the list

Todd's missed opportunity

>>11527486

>>11527486
They just need to cut the bullshit, make the suit out of a thinner more form fitting material and add a muscle suit so you can actual see the muscles. That costume lady Gunn keeps hiring is a hack.

>>11527485
I fucking hate Star Girl.

You’ll still buy her.
