GameStop McFarlane Day 10/15 – Three Jokers Box Set, Swamp Thing, Bloody Violator and More

RamenRider · 10-14-2021, 11:23 AM

Meh... I was looking forward to seeing Swamp Thing but that one just looks bad IMO. I know he had wooden antlers in the New52 but what's with these weird root horns?

Can someone please make a classic Swamp Thing already? Mezco, Medicom? Anyone?

Tony_Bacala · 10-14-2021, 11:27 AM

In the video he said "he has a new head" which I assume means this is an alternate version with the horned head.

DRP72 · 10-14-2021, 11:29 AM

I agree...the Swamp Thing with antlers is a letdown. Hopefully he'll have a more classic looking head.

Weren't there two leaked listings for Swamp Thing? So one has this head and then there's another?

Yeah, selling the same figure twice with different heads instead of putting both sculpts in the same box sounds like something McFarlane would do.

Jester · 10-14-2021, 11:36 AM

Rave Guard Veteran Sergeant is just a repaint of the Ultramarines Sergeant? I was really hoping for a Beaky helmet, and maybe a lightning claw or two. I guess this means that a repaint of the Primaris Intercessor Artist's Proof in Chapter colours isn't outside the realm of possibility, though...

emeraldnite · 10-14-2021, 11:58 AM

I'll admit--the DCUC Swamp Thing figure still holds up as my favorite figure for the character. Would be nice to get this one for more dynamic poses, but I also agree that the horned head is not my favorite.

Also admit that getting the Three Jokers all in one go has increased my interest from getting them separately (I like convenience). ;P

ezim93 · 10-14-2021, 12:06 PM

Yeah based on what Todd is saying it sounds like the antlered head for Swamp Thing is a gamestop exclusive. I'm a little tempted but I do prefer it without antlers so I may wait it out for the general version. And I do remember we saw two Swamp Thing listings as well.

IzzyTipsy · 10-14-2021, 01:19 PM

So we never even got an idea if Killing Joker Joker is a Walmart exclusive (only place it was available so far) and yet we're getting a boxed set of them plus Batman at Gamestop?

Looks like that's the best way to get him.

Was hoping the variants would be unmasked Red Hood and Batgirl.

Was he ever actually available at Walmart? The listing never showed any pictures and I never heard that it went live, but maybe I missed it.

Unmasked and with GODDAMNED GUNS. Enough with this just a crowbar shit.

IzzyTipsy · 10-14-2021, 01:54 PM

At this point I'm just giving them Joe Classified guns

Yes, it was up for preorder and sold out. I got one.

I totally missed it. I don't remember it ever showing up on this site.

Designincase · 10-14-2021, 05:10 PM

The figures listing was never announced. Walmart had it active and people went to town. It's entirely possible it's not the product they think it is. The listing didn't have pictures.

Sirdookylord · 10-15-2021, 01:11 AM

If anyone is interested the regular version is up on bbts for pre order. No horns.

ShabbyBlue · 10-15-2021, 05:05 AM

It's past 8am EST now and nothing is up. Sigh...

Edit: 8:15... still nothing. Are we really going to have to keep watching the site all day waiting for stuff to finally get posted? If they say 8am EST, then it should all be up at 8am EST!

The 3 Jokers set and maybe bloody Violator are all I want, and of course those are the only exclusives not showing up online. All the other stuff is there.

Tony_Bacala · 10-15-2021, 05:22 AM

Check the front page, there are things in system that aren't orderable, but will be.

Also, possible that Three Jokers Box Set was actually just the Third Joker (Killing Joke). Todd was in his fast talking salesmen mode yesterday and it wasn't fully clear. As of right now, the third joker has a listing, but no box set.

ShabbyBlue · 10-15-2021, 05:22 AM

Yeah I just saw the individual listing for Killing Joke Joker so I went went ahead and preordered him since I already had the other 2 ordered thru BBTS. Looks like the box set may not go up today. I'm still curious what the Walmart version was that went up a couple weeks ago that still has no photos for it. Some kind of slight variant? I forsee many people who managed to preorder that one turning around and cancelling it since we still don't know what it is, while the Gamestop listing is clearly trenchcoat Joker.

Meanwhile, neither version of Violator is up yet as of 8:30am.

Tony_Bacala · 10-15-2021, 05:29 AM

I just grabbed regular bloody violator.

That link still says "Sorry we could not find the page you were looking for." for me

After you get there, hold Shift and press F5 if on desktop.

If on mobile, open it in an incognito / private tab. Force a fresh load of the page. Maybe. Also might be different per region for whatever reason.

Ok it finally loaded in Internet Explorer, and yet in Firefox is still gives the "Sorry we could not find the page you were looking for." error. Weird.

The signature version of Violator still isn't loading in either browser though, or on my phone. I was just curious to see how much more expensive it is. I'm glad I don't value Todd's signature as much as he values it himself.

At least now I can relax and go back to bed for a couple more hours.

jscott991 · 10-15-2021, 05:53 AM

So I missed the Killing Joke Joker again. And it never officially went live here either I guess.

Oh well. I'm not really collecting these McFarlane figures. I just thought that one looked cool.
