Hes about a chromosome away from being a Spitting Image character.

With some of these sculpts you think they'd go for the most badass looking one vs a derp face to capture one random emotion.

I genuinely want to know how they are picking faces........then yell at them to STOP IT!

Still sans that particular Batman head, if you have neither figure and don't want to build a horse, this would be a nice set to get these two figures.

I don't know how common the alt color will be for Batman. I saw one figure at my local Target but not at another.

Considering buying this just for the large rubble piece to use with the MAFEX figures.

He still looks like an ape.

At least give them angry faces for the battle instead of more generic "huh" faces.

At least they aren't looking sideways I guess

Todd’s toys are so ugly and cheap looking. And those poses are terrible and make them look worse. Weak paints apps and bare bones accessories are the norm for this line.

I thought that Superman IS looking sideway?

Superman looks like the Bogdanoff twins.

I was thinking maybe they cast mickey rourke in some new joint.

Is Amazon late to the party, again?

Amazon's toy listings have had a lot of problems. They took pre-orders for Gotham Knights Nightwing and Red Hood, but then the product pages were removed. They have since shipped the pre-orders, but you can't arrange for an exchange (only a refund) if your product arrived damaged or if you got the all-grey version of Red Hood and want the painted version instead.

I don't know about Batman, but Superman sure looks all shook up. Mmhmmm, hmmm, yeah, yeah, he's all shook up. #ElvisLives

I am still annoyed with the handling of the single release blue armored batman. Wasn't announced but has popped up at target store locations. People reporting having issues purchasing because it's not in the system or something. This 2 pk head sculpt is different and more comic accurate though which is interesting.

There've been a lot of frustrating business decisions regarding these 2-packs.

This one doesn't include the swap out hands that the individual releases have. Instead, it comes with a long piece of street rubble, which is of no interest to me but may be the reason why another board member buys it, lol.

John Stewart gets two individual releases with identical bodies, but Hal Jordan is only available in a 2-pack with a character who's also available singly.

I think the only 2-pack that hasn't made me shake my head is the one with Nightwing and Red Hood. It was easier to buy than trying to find the solo Red Hood in Walgreens stores.

Dude just stopped caring and doesn't listen to any criticism. I'm effectively boycotting McFarlane, and releases like this make it quite easy.

IzzyTipsy · 01-11-2022, 06:32 AM

Good thing is that Hal will probably get another single release anyway eventually.

McFarlane can't keep himself from re-releasing things with the slightest of differences.

Shame those differences aren't making side eyed characters look straight.
