Todd: "What's the ugliest and most ridiculous version of Batman I can possibly make a figure of?"

FINALLY a Double Batman!
You know, because he dresses like a bat and he carries a bat? Hello?!? A Batman that finally matches Robin in color. |

I noticed Ultraman is called “Superman of Earth-3” on the box. Another Bumblebee style trademark issue?

Possibly. But they also do that for the Batman figures from the Dark Nights multiverse, Batman of Earth -2 etc. Instead of Devastator, Dawnbreaker, etc. I think they are just trying to rope in casual folks and kids with the name since it's more recognizable.

This article was hilarious and proves the point Quote:
Last week, this week, and even actually TODAY, McFarlane Toys announced more figures for their ever-growing DC Multiverse line, and about 97% of them ended up being Batman-related:
More figures for the upcoming "The Batman" movie were announced last week, a simple-yet-efficient Rebirth Batman was also announced last week, 2 different Batman (!) from the Future State comic book event were announced this week, and a Target Exclusive (argh!) Batman of Zur-En-Arrh was even announced as we were preparing this article. Talk about fate! |

It's obviously not a classic design but I kind of still really like that Starro though. He skews a little more Shuma Gorath/ Lovecraftian horror and that is definitely to my liking.

Well, The CW made a mess of their schedule, so shows keep taking turns in the same time slots depending on the month. Flash and Riverdale aired for five weeks in the fall and then went on hiatus again.
Not sure which other character would be popular enough to sell well, though. Supergirl would've been a natural candidate, but the series has ended (presumably because the actress wants to focus on her newborn child). Superman would be the next logical guess now that he has his own show, too. I guess White Canary (Caity Lotz) would be logical as well since she's the lead of Legends of Tomorrow, but we already know McF doesn't release a lot of female figures. Arrow - canceled The Flash Supergirl - canceled Legends of Tomorrow - Maybe Caity Lotz, but there are rumors of this show being canceled, too. Black Lightning - canceled Batwoman - I personally enjoy it, but no one seems to be making any merchandise based on Javicia Leslie. Superman & Lois - This shows seems to have found a devoted audience, and I like Tyler Hoechlin as Superman. Don't like the actress they cast as Lois, though. Naomi - just started airing this year Superman and Lois could push out at least Hoechlin's Superman and a Steel, maybe a Lois and an Eradicator if they wanted. But so far, nothing. |

That's what I mean, they did Arrow so why not Flash and Supergirl? Doesn't matter though, the iron is no longer hot. It's not even the schedule of the shows, shows like the Flash are just running on fumes now. Armageddon should have been the series finale. It's a little late to start pushing out figures now.
Superman and Lois could push out at least Hoechlin's Superman and a Steel, maybe a Lois and an Eradicator if they wanted. But so far, nothing. |

Aye, I'd love me a Supes and Steel. I would love Steel to have the S symbol but there hasn't yet been a story reason him to put that onto his armour yet but with Doomsday might we be seeing Superman 'die' for a while (with maybe his death lasting between season 2 and 3 so it gives a sense of time moving on without the need for a lack of Tyler in episodes) and Steel taking on the symbol in his honour similar to the comic book reason (with Jordan becoming Superboy and gaining a cool outfit too that could make a fine action figure)? And perhaps McFarlane could then do the Steel toy then. Preferably with switchable chest pieces though I assume they'd just release two almost identical figures each with the different chest because that seems to be McFarlane's rather annoying style eh?

LOL, just more of the same...Bats/Supes in every viable costume they can dredge up. This is the worst DC based action figure line I've ever seen. It's 90% Bat related. Why not name it the Batverse line & let people know from the get go that they could forget ever seeing their favorite Non Batman based character in this line.

Odds on Starro being repacked as deluxe "Gold Label" with a new cycloptic central piece?

Can't believe it didn't even occur to me before but regarding the brief discussion above about the Superman & Lois show and potential figures, I'd happily buy a Hoechlin 'Fleischer suit' figure in addition to his present day suit. Oh oh and the black suit evil Superman from Steel's world. That I think used the suit originally made for the Elseworlds crossover? So aye, there you go, Todd, there's at least a few Supes figure variants if you get Hoechlin's likeness rights. lol. Not sure we need 'assistant football coach Clark Kent' with his baseball cap but someone would probably make their own custom once a decent Hoechlin head sculpt became available.
Also I had to once again google both Hoechlin and Fleischer to make sure I spelt both correctly. I don't know what I struggle with spelling those names. Turns out I got it right but still doubted myself enough to check. I was about to say I never had that trouble with Christopher Reeve but then I remembered how I'd sometimes wasn't sure if it was Reeve or Reeves but it's 50's Superman that is (George) Reeves. lol. For some reason I say 'Todd' in that sarcastic manner that Edward Furlong did in T2. lol Last edited by EternianJerkian; 01-23-2022 at 11:22 AM.. |
