Smart.

We need to make a list of the missing DC guns and see if a similar piece is available, or have a most wanted list anyway.

Awkward Silent · 05-10-2022, 08:00 AM

How are international buyers like people from Australia expected to buy this?

Cyclopswc · 05-10-2022, 08:01 AM

Silver Desert Eagle with extended barrel for Peacemaker. RPG with shoulder stock for Harley Quinn. Plus guns for Red Hood and Grifter. You got me Todd. I'm in!

BarbaraGordon · 05-10-2022, 08:02 AM

This is really impressive. I had thought that the weapons pack would be more modest (maybe 8 pieces at most) at a higher price point. Instead, these are being offered for basically $1 each.

Well, after shipping it's about $20+ (depending on how many you buy), but still a good deal! Wish it wasn't exclusive though.

I'll start with what's needed for "Munition Pack 2" - movie Bloodsport's weapons

Well, I meant the unit price per weapon.

Unfortunately, someone has to pay for shipping, either the buyer or McF. They probably don't do enough volume to be able to eat the cost of shipping, though I can see this weapons pack being the first ever McF Store purchase for many people.

Woof... Cheapest shipping to Canada is $ 37.47 USD. With the exchange rate that makes it nearly $ 70 CAD to get one set.

Designincase · 05-10-2022, 08:31 AM

Don't expect DC themed items in these packs. So Bloodsport won't get the items from the film but anything generic enough they can make and not risk trouble with WB.

Dolemite · 05-10-2022, 08:31 AM

Very cool of Todd to make this set available. It's a great way of getting around Warner's aversion to guns with their DC figures and just a great selection of weapons overall.

IzzyTipsy · 05-10-2022, 09:43 AM

Nice selection of weapons for 7" figures. I wonder if they can even fit with Classified.

KachoOn · 05-10-2022, 09:44 AM

Definitely getting this, hope my mcfarlane figs have appropriate hands for the guns though

The handles will probably be a little too thick.

Should work just fine with most figures. I use McF's Fortnite weapons with my DC figures. Several of the guns in this pack even look like the Fortnite guns.

Not every DC figure will be able to hold a gun, though. Gotham Knights Batgirl's hands are molded so oddly that she can barely even hold the tonfa that was included with her.

See, G.I. Joe team? It's not that difficult. Let's get those Nerf guns from the first couple of waves replaced already, eh?

I would love a Classified weapons pack.

But I believe they have basically been trying to replace those guns by packing multiple assault rifles and SMGs with figures like Alpha Commando Snake Eyes, the Alley Viper, the Viper Three Pack, the Cobra Officer, etc.

They clearly got the memo and are trying to give us non-third party options.

But, again, by all means give me a weapons pack like this.

Yeah, I's say you're right. AC Snake Eyes in particular was good source to swap Beachhead and Firefly's load-outs. Even so, I'd love to see a throwback to the Battle Gear Accessory Packs... if they can stay away from pastel blue Dragonuvs, that is!

Harbinger · 05-10-2022, 11:28 AM

Wish these were sold in stores. I hate ordering from mcfarlane. I expect bots willbe on these like an alley viper at target.com

I'm fine with the weapons we got we GI Joe, just not some of the colors.

Anyway, this pack is pretty damn cool. The best idea MacFarlane ever had.

To be fair, no Batman hero not named Jason Todd should be wielding guns anyway.

You need to read more comics.

It's great to see Mcfarlane make this available to consumers to help get around that STUPID WB no-gun mandate for their figures.

The price point is better than fair and there is a decent selection of different firearms however, the stylized look they are going for is totally not for me. The AR15 looks really silly, handle/stock of the shotgun is unrealistic, and pistol barrels are way too long outside of the compensator attachments.

All of that being said, the Mp5 looks good and I'm happy that this is a decent solution to the silliness of the WB corporate mandate.
