DC Multiverse - Build-A-Figure Bane Preview

Why does Bane have a Batman symbol on his mask?

@Dolemite - That's what his mask looks like in the source material-- "Last Knight on Earth."

I plan on getting this regardless, but I am curious if that's the final paint? Bane had normal skin tone with green veins in the comic if I remember correctly.

Woah bane had his normal skin tone instead of Zombie grey. He looks too much like bruce timm or ed mcguiness style.

It's grey but the art has a bit more flesh tones mixed in. Like he's midway between being a corpse and alive.

I really hope that if they ever get around to doing a regular Bane he isn't a BAF.

Articulation on that thing is nil. It’s just a huge, grey block.

if bane broke solomon grundy's back

Hasbro or whoever thought of the BAF system for toys should have patented it so no other company can sell toys that way. I have 4 BAFs and I'm tired of BAFs.

EDIT: I just watched this...

I'm sure this sample size of one person will make them abandon the idea that's helped them move tons of excess product....

^ Your post comes off as weirdly and unnecessarily hostile... but whatever... I'm still tired of BAFs and much prefer BAFs to be sold as deluxe figures.

BAF were being done in the Toybiz days, but for true large figures such as Setinel, Giantman, Apocalypse, and Galactus. Hasbro decided to just do the whole big guys are BAF thing.

This Bane is much better

Ehhhhhh......

They look awesome but where are the pre-orders? There is no pre-order of anything.

A lot of announcements without pre-orders....

I really hope this is an early prototype and that Bane gets more articulation, because this figure quite honestly looks horrible to me right now. Some collectors don't seem to mind as long as it's big, but I expect a little bit more of my figures these days. I see this ad on my screen right now for the Venompool BAF and while I'm not a particular fan of that character as such, the sculpting and articulation look light years ahead compared to that Bane.

On a side note, the Robin looks fine (ugly sword though...is that Deathstroke's?).

I'm sure he'll have a few more points come release. McFarlane loves showing off sculpts more then articulation. Which is something I don't like about him but it's funny bc he's my favorite SH artist since ASM issue 300
