Speaking of Batman, I think I might have found one of the few '89 Batman figures featuring an unmasked likeness of Michael Keaton that doesn't feature messed up eyes.

which batman is this

I have to second the Multiverse superman. Secon would be the Microman Superman which is only held back by the paint apps

Well, actually, I think it was because of it being mostly Arkham, along with being slightly shorter and less articulated than MU while MU was itself declining...Plus decisions like making their ONE Superman figure super rare while General Zod was super common, and having those movie offerings be slightly taller than the Arkham stuff...Man, that line shot itself in the foot a lot come to think of it. I should make a video on that eventually.

I'm still pissed we never got that Arkham Penguin figure, though.

i'm disappointed they didn't make a 3.75 inch Multiverse Lynda Carter Wonder Woman as they have now with 6 inch.

all dwight. he hacked mattel and made the figures shorter and superman rare.

after joecon2008 he made it his mission to destroy every 4 inch line.

Madame Warlock · 12-01-2018, 06:30 PM

I know they're a little undersized, but I really wanted some Legion figures for Christmas and I think the Pocket Heroes faces are hilarious so I'm ordering some. I also want to get the McDonalds cartoon figures but can't find any cheapish that ship to Ireland.

Also, am I correct in assuming JLU Big Barda should be in scale for 3.75" Figures?

Madame Warlock · 12-01-2018, 06:33 PM

Also what's my best option for a 3.75" Beast boy? \

I really wish DCIH had continued/ I've been picking up more and more of them lately(Starfire, Black Lightning) and while they're not quite as articulated or detailed as Marvel Universe there's a real charm to these dudes and I love them to bits.

At least I've plenty left to collect - want to get a Shazam at the very least, but I wish they'd have kept it going. It was such a fun line.

I used a DCIH Robin for mine.

I could have sworn that the Injustice 2 figures were supposed to be out this year, but the earliest I'm seeing any of them release now is February.

Hiya bein' Hiya?

Madame Warlock · 12-02-2018, 08:56 AM

BB never had a mask tho right? Is the mask on Robin sculpted or painted on?

The Fallout female vault dweller has also been pushed back to February. My Gamestop rep suggested it might be a production flaw like a bad paint app they want to correct so that there are not a lot of variants out there. He said they are paying more attention to that now. Of course when you continue to see QC issues like this and then multiple items pushed back to the same date, it makes you wonder.

tlasjr · 12-02-2018, 09:03 AM

Hiya is ALWAYS late. Usually several months. Pretty sure the Aliens APC was delayed like a yearor more.

Madame Warlock · 12-02-2018, 11:24 AM

Really frustrating as I wanted a new Wonderwoman and Supergirl. I'll probably pick up the Swamp thing as well.

Kalkent · 12-02-2018, 02:19 PM

I was always hoping we could get a 4" DC line matching the articulation from MU. There are so many in-continuity versions of the characters they could produce that it last a long time.

I posted just some Superman using the multiverse Christopher Reeve face. We have default Superman, Matrix Superman, Krypton Man, and Commander El.

The next ones will be new 52 Superman, Clark Kent, Rebirth Superman, and Reborn Superman

Geomojo66 · 12-02-2018, 03:45 PM

I picked up the DC Primal Age King Shark. I thought that one would scale better than the BAF one.

Now you have to do an evil Superman from last nights Elseworlds.

Kalkent · 12-12-2018, 04:34 PM

Actually will do the Main CW Superman first!

snake5289 · 12-15-2018, 06:40 PM

Just saw the Hiya IJ2 Flash and holy s**t it looks awesome. Too bad it probably won't be out for a good while.

Hope they do Reverse Flash, Captain Cold, and Grodd to go with him.

tlasjr · 12-15-2018, 08:16 PM

Just saw aquaman and want a Manta even more now.

Madame Warlock · 12-18-2018, 02:02 PM

Any recommendations for an easy Mera custom?

Also considering using Thor parts for a movie Aquaman
