Thanks both of you that shared pics! Needed to see that before I committed fully!

Here's another comparison that was posted in the Facebook group

Close ups of the f5 Arkham Knight wave 2 Neal Adams Batman and Batfleck, i'm a little disappointed on the 70s one, looks very skinny. Batfleck looks great tho. Hoping they will do a Pattinson if they ever release a wave 3 since the Spin Masters one is too cartoony.

Just committed to 5 F5 Batman Blind Boxes off AliExpress, cost me under $20 shipped right now because Black Friday.

After seeing some pics and reading reviews, I'm excited to grab these. Hoping I get regular Batman, Deathstroke and Red Hood v2.


Definitely gonna be after that Joker and Neal Adams Batman too.

Spin Master is doing toys based on DC's Metal Force cartoon https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=44lLCEjjTgQ

I guess this is the way we will get Brainiac.

These kinds of things where never my cup of tea but it's probably the only way I'll get that new Rebirth Batman since I haven't seen anything new from Spin Master in a good while.

From a Facebook group. The post says these will be available at Target. Thinking this will be a fun new direction for the line.

the distribution of these has really been disastrous, we never saw the Justice League figures past the first wave and even those were hard to find. Now it's all Batman figures again, and they still haven't had the imagination to release a Poison Ivy. Haven't seen Red Hood here yet either. Clayface was the last one I picked up and he's really nice but I'm not sure when we'll get someone interesting again.

I never saw *any* of the 4 inch blue beetle figures and I have no idea how to get a hold of one. I really like Jamie, so it's pretty upsetting. I was a fan of the JL cartoon too so I'd love the Stewart Lantern, neither one has ever been available to me.

Yup


Heck the Aquaman stuff showed up in my Walmart late, was there for less then a week then put in a bin on clearance and then was just gone the next day.

New Batman stuff hasn't shown up anywhere here

Built 3 out of the 5 I ordered. Really happy with everything so far.

This is super frustrating, and it shouldn’t be the case. If for no other reason, this is worth Spin Master losing the license. There are a handful of the SAME original figures clogging the pegs at a couple Targets around here: original Superman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman… and a couple of the latest Batman wave. But that’s it. No Wal-marts in my area have any DC toys on the action figure aisle, Spin Master or McFarlane. They haven’t had them in months, so it’s obvious that it’s not a fluke.

The Imaginext stuff seems to be selling well, and there are always fresh releases of vehicles, playsets and figures.

Why does Spin Master even want the license anymore? If they aren’t willing to do the hard work of distribution, give it to someone else.

Haha! I have the same figures in the same Extreme Sets diorama right now. Although my cat keeps using it as his sleeping area.

Spin Master Batman Forever Batmobile?

I don't know that figure looks like a Super Powers style

If that is legit why'd they have to go with the funky retro Kilmer? They've been killing it with the movie Batmen so far. Why change it now?

I don't understand what Spinmaster is doing

Nice! It's pretty rad, right? I like that there's a few ways you can arrange it and keep the set up fresh.


lol, I'm too scared to let my cat near it!

You should see what he did to my bar diorama! He loves chewing cardboard. I've been lucky so far with this one, knock on wood.

Anybody know of a specific storefront on Ali that sells those Arkham figures and actually delivers? I've gotten shafted out of efforts TWICE now.

Here's the link that I used for Wave 1, took about a week to get here:

Here's the link for Wave 1.5 (Which includes most of Wave 1's figures except with an updated paint jobs) I think you'd just be missing out on the regular Batman from Wave 1. You get the Prestige Suit version in Wave 1.5

Kinda think whoever the brand manager is needs to be removed,
like what are they doing

Can we freaking finish 1 collection before moving to something else completely different

For wave 1.5, I don't mind the translucent Batman being the chase....but dang the is Joker too.

WTF man! I'd be psyched if those were normal figures instead of... whatever those are. Retro I guess?

Its weird because Mezco is already doing 3.75 5POA Batman figures with BTAS and 89.

85th like is so weird with a 12inch Joker while 4' is 3 Batmen and Bane.

but also a 4th version of Batman that is just a repack of Batfleck from Flash.

Wait are they rereleasing the Flash Batfleck? I've been wanting to get a another one but didn't want to get the whole set again.

hold on is that right? $15.12 for a whole set???

:confused:

so they want to compete against Super Powers?!
I think someone at DC licensing needs to shut this down
maybe we can get McFarlane mad at them to stop this?
