Another Batman wave. Going to grab some popcorn before the comments roll in. Personally I'm glad we're getting the entire Dark Knights Metal Linup so fast. Hoping we get the Drowned and Red Death sooner rather than later too. Would love to see a lantern wave soon.

Ok, now we are fn cooking here.
Everything looks great. Ab cuts are streamlined. Metal line up getting complete along with others. And, that Batman is boss. Modern suit, good head, all the artic points addressed. Neck might be a bit beefy. I can't 100% tell, but Bats looks to have double jointed elbows. And if so, then hurrah! |

These looks incredibly cool. But I do wish they'd sprinkle in a few classic looks/characters more often.

Last wave had a fairly normal looking Batman, Supes, Nightwing, and Batgirl. It's only been a thing for a few months. Pretty sure there will be something for everyone.

That Superman would make a fantastic Bizarro with a few tweaks!

Wow. These figures look amazing. And to think there’s still people out there that think Mattel did better figures...so baffling to me. These figures make Mattel’s stuff look like McDonald’s happy meal toys. Nice job Todd, keep it up!

When it comes to classic looks. At this point classic means many things. Even the New52 isn't a spring chicken anymore.
I'm not surprised with them continuing this Metal wave but yeah it's Batman. It's more batman themed figures.I dislike that Merciless is a BAF because I'd want him on his own. I don't want all the others. So standard bodies. Again I'd like a swivel on the legs so we have more options for turning. The Rebirth(?) Batman they are using may lack the interior purple that costume is supposed to have. It doesn't look bad at all but it's the nth batman figure we've gotten. It looks double jointed which is good. So for me it's just a case of.....I've got plenty of Batmen. Double joint elbows SHOULD BE STANDARD. All those single joints, toss them out, lose the files, destroy the molds. Double jointed only. Superman - I think that's double jointed which I wanted for the first one. So hopefully another Superman figures uses that. I would hope they would make the capes detachable. Robin - First Robin figure I guess and it looks creepy enough. Swappable heads means this is explicitly made for that. BWL - Looks good, want a HawkPeople. I wonder if that girdle will limit articulation. For me personally I don't need another BWL. Merciless - Looks good but I don't want this to be a BAF I probably won't be getting this. Though I guess I'd be very interested in an Ares. So on it's own, this is not a bad roster of figures. In the grand scheme, this line has just be Batman characters with some Superman/Wonder Woman sprinkled over. I know it can be annoying to see this complaint...but the whole DC universe and it's mostly Batman. After this wave they need to give the Bat a rest and use the others. |

Wow- these look amazing- I hop Todd keeps it up and makes the Drowned in the next wave- that's how you complete a team- you just start cranking them out until the team is done and then you move on to the next!

I hope that means that the Robin comes with all 3 heads. Not some random hunt game where I gotta check every robin hoping i can find all 3. I just hope Robin comes with the Merceless head, I don't need extra torsos
Also , I don't wanna say Rebirth Bats is looking Puffy??? But he is more juiced than Superman |

That Deathstroke looks nice. Much leaner than the chunky looking Hot Toys figure. The AK Batman also looks nice if not for the bent ears.

Okay Deathstroke is a buy for me.
Batman though i'm mixed. On the one hand he looks cool. On the other hand it's yet another Batman. Also I'm interested in torso articulation. Both of these look like they don't have it unless it's a flexible material covering them. If that's the case.....that's a game changer for me. If it's good hidden torso articulation. |

McFarlane has upped their game from their initial DC offerings, to be sure.
Not a big DC guy but even I've been loving the whole Metal stuff. Kinda psyched by this line-up, and that Deathstroke looks rad as well. |
