Not quite the pale twiggy Superman from the Flashpoint comics.

Comedian · 02-11-2023, 04:15 PM

Todd is doing to many exclusives. He Is making the most sought after figures the hardest to get. Collectors are going to start giving up if he’s not careful. I’m close.

Exactly, way too buffed, but because it's an exclusive, I'll probably never see it...

Now on to the awesome SUPER POWERS Mr. Freeze figure that Todd released on his site for 20 seconds and almost no one got……

I’m getting real spent on all these companies doing this chase crap.

Holy cow that color scheme is great, but the real interesting bit is those new pinless elbow joints he's rocking. Guess McFarlane is hopping on that train!

This is the type of exclusive I like to see, a fun callback to the Kenner toy but not a necessary get for most people. As for the elbows these are technically the same as on the regular release version so they were already pinless, although your comment only now had me noticing it on that one.

Designincase · 02-11-2023, 08:19 PM

The animated Flashpoint movie made Superman far more a twigman then in the comic. Like how they made all the guys looks like they drank Venom with every meal.

Comic Subject One isn't quite the twigman but yeah reusing the Jon Kent Superman body(I so much want to keep calling him Superboy) isn't appropriate. Though it would be funny if the one time we need a figure with an oversized head/hands, we get one in the correct proportion to the body.

Though also to be fair, I can't be positive it's that body. But it's the most slender they have. But Mcfarlane is also more likely to just sculpt new torsos and reuse limbs.

Is Freeze actually pinless or is it just becoming covered up by the armor on the bicep?

GizmoTron · 02-11-2023, 09:05 PM

I think it was artist dependent but either way this figure has too much muscle tone to be the Flashpoint Superman. It really needed a unique sculpt, but McFarlane has really begun ramping up the reuse. That's too bad.

I'm guessing the oxygen masks variants will look like this:

That Picture of Adam West Batman and Burt Ward Robin with Oxygen masks really reminds me of Nolan films Bane in a weird way. lol

oh, you think camp is your ally ? But you merely adopted the Camp. I was born in it, molded by it, Mr. West. lol

The Flash movie trailer is bananas. Put me down for a Keaton Batman from Mcfarlane Toys from this movie

deecee4 · 02-12-2023, 05:33 PM

That one shot of Ezra Miller confronting himself for the first time kind of reminds me of that footage of him with that girl,geez.
Movie looks really good, however. Definitely seeing it.

Harbinger · 02-12-2023, 07:57 PM

Miller is a degenrate freak, scumbag and all around worthless human being and yet he gets handed a pass for his shit.yet countless other folk have done way less and with no true proof ( unlike miller ) and had their careers ended. Sorry but this movie should not only never see the light of day but should be burned. No way does miller deserve this film.

snake5289 · 02-12-2023, 08:08 PM

If it wasn't for Keaton coming back I doubt anyone would give the slightest shit about this movie.

Sorry we are all out of Batmans. We only have Superman-Batman, Flash-Batman, Joker-Batman, Lantern-Batman, Metal-Batman, Zombie-Batman, Vampire-Batman, Wannabes pretending to be Batman, etc. So you see, we don't have any Batmans here.

Clearly, I’m in the wrong establishment…

I kinda like the jokerized batman.

It actually looks cool, but, come on, it's another Batman, dude

Todd can do better and even fans of his line are begging for other characters.
