If there's one plus about Mattel(at least in my experience) is the manufacturing process is a little more competent and they're more durable overall.

Just contact NECA again. The one I bought my dad took a shelf dive in Feb 2017, and the leg broke off. I sent a picture to them on Twitter and they sent me a new one. They may still have some left, it's worth a try. Trust me, that's your best bet. Mattel isn't making one. If MAFEX makes one it'll cost 4x as much as NECAs.

Yeah, man, its going on a year since they were unveiled, hope they're able to finally get them out this year. Also it looks like Neca have plans for a Green Lantern as well.

Yeah, and I'd have to deal with the ridiculous Ebay and Amazon prices for anything that's out of production, and I'd also have to be able to see the specific figure I'm getting so I know I'm not getting another lopsided one.

I'd really rather not. I already got them to send me two replacements, and after seeing that the replacement of the replacement still had leg issues, I just didn't want to bother with it anymore. On the other hand, the 7" and 18" Keatons I got are in good shape, other than the 7" figure's symbol being sloppily painted.

It was in the background of a recent article about Neca.

Not sure if this is of any interest or not, but I just found these up here in Ontario, Canada.

I can't post pics or links 'cause I'm "too new."

Wonderful Toys 01-27-2018 10:19 PM

There are a few pics of Kilmer and Shipp here: Mattel's DC Multiverse [6 inch] - Page 498 - The Fwoosh Forums

Hope it's alright to post links to other toy forums.

ohh good, better pics. the only issue i see is bats head. looks kinda weird, its like the quality is not there. they did good with the body but went downhill with the head, smh. the good thing is the scale and the cloth cape

Snowflakian 01-30-2018 10:00 AM

Still want these in 3.75, but that being said, I hope they do both Robin costumes from Batman Forever also.

Wonderful Toys 01-30-2018 11:41 AM

It looks like a lot of the Kilmer Batman figures have the same issue with the exposed portion of the face not being fully painted.

Black Arbor 01-30-2018 12:04 PM

My main problem with Kilmer Bats is that he has neck articulation which breaks up the look of a solid cowl

Louise Belcher 01-30-2018 12:07 PM

Flash is ugly as hell. His proportions are terrible and all over the place and I thought Mattel couldn't make uglier sculpt then the 2004 DCUC busted mold.

As for Batman, his proportions are way better, decent, though his legs are too long and he could have wider torso. His head look like a part of knockoff toy.

Despite the gripes I still have about Mattel DC action figures, I have to admit they really step up their game and I think it does worth 30$ seeing the included stand (I would prefer more accessories instead). If Mattel just do one more push and make nicer sculpts and paint for the faces, I would actually buy their action figures.

MUfan97 01-30-2018 12:08 PM

Mattel's got toe joints now, but how much do you want to bet that they STILL don't have ankle pivots?

I fully agree! It’s one of the many reasons I like the NECA Keaton Batman and Batman Begins figures. When you add articulation to the cowl, it’s not only inaccurate to the movie, it just looks weird as hell. I mean his head looks tiny af! How in the world does Mattel not see this? Now I know some people want as much articulation as possible, but this is where articulation can ruin the sculpt.

Jay West 01-30-2018 12:21 PM

6.5 inches? Why?

Tomax 01-30-2018 12:39 PM

I agree.
I understand these to be “Premium Multiverse” but creeping the price point line to $30 is pushing it unless the ‘extras’ go beyond Hasbro’s current Marvel Legends offerings.

Glad they FINALLY produced Lynda Carter’s Wonder Woman. I expected her to originally debut with their 3.75 inch Multiverse with Keaton & Reeves.

Wonderful Toys 01-30-2018 01:25 PM

Maybe this is just how it has to be for a while since for Mattel, this is a new thing, and once the articulation schemes and everything become more common practice, the prices will fall in line with the non-premium prices.

The only real extra seems to be the hands and the stands....I was kind of expecting unmasked heads or maybe some accessories. Seeing that Kilmer figure with the picture stand is kind of disappointing, because the figure looks so different. It's almost like Mattel is saying "See how this looks nothing like the figure?" lol

Jester 01-30-2018 02:13 PM

The heads are too small.

VashTS 01-30-2018 03:27 PM

unmasked heads needed

TimothyR 01-30-2018 09:00 PM

The ears or whatever you want to call them on the batman cowl are much too thick and end up making the figure exceptionally doofy looking.
