Yeah, Sinestro does look stellar. I wanna display him with my other GLs so bad and honestly he looks fine with them, but when I compare him to my DCUC White Lantern Hal (my only DCUC Hal), it just makes me take him down. Same thing with my MM Batman Begins Bats, looks cool but the size difference irks me.

MM Hal Jordan on the other hand - just stuck him in a bag somewhere....

Why couldn't they just add another inch, I don't get the logic behind it.

why no bane?

We've already got a CnC Bane. In fact, I'm finishing him by the end of this week actually.

So I don't think Mattel will see a reason to bust another one out - but I would like an updated Secret Six mask with the smaller "Mac Gargan/Venom" like eyes.

Unless you're talking about a "The Dark Knight Rises" Bane....

I mainly collect the MMs to add the alien lanterns to my DCUC GLC display. I view Kilowog and Sinestro as nice bonuses. I wish I could say the same about Hal and Tomar Re (Tomar only because he can't stand).
Although the Maskless Hal looks a lot better than the regular one. He has a really nice light green wash that *really* pops the details and nails the flowing light look in the movie CG.
But mainly I see the Movie Masters strength in figures like Rot Lop Fan, G'hu, Isamot, and Gallus Zed. (And Naut Ki Loi looks so cool, and so different from his comic book counterpart they can stand side by side.)

That's the exact same thing I do with my film figures - I integrate them with DCUC, except that I do keep Tomar Re in, even if he does proceed to maim anything vertically below my display area once in a while. I have him severely leaned back, but not enough to make him look weird. My MM Naut Kei Loi's flying

I wonder what the dark knight bane will look like?

Oh yeah...I don't think we've seen a Venom-infused Dark Knight Rises Bane yet have we?

I've only seen the normal version in screenshots/caps so far.

yeah I dont think they will go with the venom infused thing for the movie,it would be cool though.

RexLewis85 · 09-07-2011, 04:06 PM

Oh man I can't wait for the Dark Knight Rises action figures...by the way Doomtron, that's Chromeskull from Laid to Rest you have as your avatar right? That was a stellar movie...can't wait for the sequel.

Wait, so they're not beefing him up?

I just know that for the film, the Venom is gaseous and it's fed to Bane through inhalation or absorption with that gas mask system he has equipped. So he's getting superhuman strength without the muscle jack-up then?

Crazy Jetty · 09-07-2011, 04:45 PM

Well, if Bane gets a venom boost, and *does* get bulkier, I honestly cannot see it being too extreme, like in the comics. So far everything has been fairly grounded, unlike the first four movies. So if he does get bulked up, it's still going to be in the realm of physical possibilities, and he's not very likely to "hulk out," like the comics Bane.

Ha, that's all the info I have right now.

@Crazy Jetty: Yeah, I wasn't expecting something of "Hulk-like" proportions, just that I was thinking they'd do some subtle CGI magic to enhance him in some way even if slightly. He does wear that trench coat though, makes me wonder if they gave him some new twist.

Morzilla · 09-07-2011, 09:31 PM

I've got joker, will post a vid some time soon.....

DogFashionDisco · 09-07-2011, 10:10 PM

In reference to the Bane "hulk out" comments, I think he'll be a big dude with a drug problem. Haven't you ever heard of people on certain drugs doing impossible things because they don't feel pain? That will probably play a crucial part in his character's portrayal.

By "Hulk out," I ment it literally. The brocess of changing from some little to medium guy (Or bodybuilding wrestler type on bane's part), into some huge impossible muscle bound monster. Like Bane does in the comics.
So by the term "Hulk out," no. I don't think he will. I do think he will be exactly as you suggest, and I believe I implied as such earlier (It's kind of a key part of his character). But no dramatic comic-accurate physical transformation.

The current Arkham City figures are disappointing. Not a fan of 2Face, Batman has a great sculpt and weathering but man I hate how the knees and elbows are hindered a bit. Robin looks to have worse range of motion for his knees. Crossing fingers Harley and Joker aren't anywhere near as disappointing.

Trying to figure out how to free the stuck ab crunch on Catman. WTF.

DogFashionDisco · 09-08-2011, 04:30 PM

So.... I have a loose Catman and Batgirl that need a good home. I had a K-Mart giftcard burning a hole in my pocket, so whoever contacts me first with a decent offer gets 'em.

Yeah, I wasn't that impressed either.

I'll pick up Harley just on principle, but not many more after that.

I was especially disappointed with 2 Faces shoulder articulation.

If anyone wants to get rid of their Arkham City 2 pack Batman for a sexy price, let me know

RexLewis85 · 09-08-2011, 08:44 PM

If anyone has Two Face from the Arkham city two pack and wants rid of him, hit me up.

Geez, I guess I need to do some more hunting. I've got you both covered.

Tiberius · 09-08-2011, 08:49 PM

I have been wanting a Batman for ages, and the Legacy ones I do not like, at all.

I'll get it for you, no worries. I'm starting to feel used, haha.

Tiberius · 09-08-2011, 08:55 PM

Hahaha XD It wasn't my plan, I swear
