I wanted a blue/gray Batman with a fabric cape. Only reason I grabbed him. I find myself checking CMD multiple times a day for what I’m sure will be the pain-in-the-@$$-of-the-year…Steve Trevor. I hope Todd has time to get to the almost inevitable Blackhawk repaint before times up.

I forgot there was a variant in this wave. Got the bundle at MTS. Dropped a $20.00 coupon on it with FedEx shipping. $92.37 total. About what I’d have paid at retail minus the hunt. Batwing on Thursday. Hoping for Merlyn and Metron next week.

I just post that stuff here as there seems to be a decent crossover crowd amongst the various scaled McFarlane lines. And while I’m not buying Fallout figures, I’m very much looking forward to season 2 on Prime. And I’ve never played the game.

Elite Edition Fallout figure up for preorder tomorrow.

Remember, noon today EST, McFarlane Digital wave goes up for preorder. NML Batman Batgirl (Stephanie) FA (Disco) Nightwing Monarch Already got my $20.00 coupon code from my McFarlane Platinum points.

I’ll try that. Thanks.

Doubt it. I don’t think this figure has hit the States in big numbers yet. I was asking some guys at one of the local toy shops yesterday and they said everyone is looking and no one is really finding anything. I’ve been checking ebay, and the ones I’m finding are mostly coming from Canada or...

Another McFarlane preorder date added of 7/16/25. Item unknown.

More Jaws on preorder today. Digital wave up tomorrow.

CE Superman Red up at CMD store for $49.99 + shipping. Just snagged one. Approximately 11:20 AM EST.

Pretty neutral on the BaFs. It’s fun if it’s a character I like/want. I’m pretty apathetic otherwise.

I don’t buy vehicles for a number of reasons. But for you guys who do, I doubt seriously that Mattel is gonna be your happy place.

Yep. Mattel is the ultimate “be careful what you wish for” scenario.

I am realistic. And I agree, if Superman falls flat it’s gonna change the entire landscape from Zaslav down to the folks buying their weekly DC comics at the LCS. We’re all gonna feel it. As for Todd being plan B, I’d given even money.

I don’t know why this is such a burr under your saddle, but your narrative is wrong. DC doesn’t need to worry about pissing off Mattel, Mattel needs to worry about pissing off DC. DC is in the driver seat, not Mattel. I’d have loved to be in those pitch meetings with all the groveling and tap...

AI isn’t going to make a better product. That will come from real human talent and innovation. You can do digital renders, but engineering refinements will come from hands on work with prototypes. And I’m not counting on any of that from Mattel anyway. Cookie cutter AI generated action figures...

You make a good point about AI and data mining. Question is can it be converted to real increases in sales? Can it vastly improve marketing efficiency helping to define/refine the customer base? More importantly, can it create new customers and bring old customers back into the fold? Mattel...

I seriously don’t want to even think about a failure. They’ll broom Gunn and company, put Berlanti in charge and cut all DC budgets by 75%. Then I’ll have to go to WB HQ and self-immolate on the sidewalk. Gunn is a crapshoot. Berlanti is the literal end of the (DC) Universe.

80 bucks for the Pattinson Batmobile according to Alex Chen via Instagram.

Obviously I’m not the Bat expert around here, but to me, that’s not a Kelley Jones Batman other than the ears. In fact, if/when we get to a KJ Batman, there’s a choice…regular or Red Rain? Red Rain for me. YMMV. I was really hoping we’d get to Gotham by Gaslight Batman as well.

I bought Flash/Titano. No interest in Kong or Godzilla. They’re not part of the official DCU. Titano is. So I grabbed him. Didn’t really need another Flash. I kinda wish DC had more monsters to fill this line out. If I didn’t buy Kong or Godzilla, I’m certainly not buying the others like...

I want Batwing too. On the fence about Troika.

Red/Black Kenner style Azrael up for preorder 7/10. Batwing 2.0 also up same day. And Troika Batman.

If I’m reading it correctly, it appears that the SDCC/UCC exclusive Beast Boy is the Platinum Collectors Edition. Limited to 2,000 pieces. He’s painted in a more pink shade. The purple version which we’ve seen, is the regular Collectors Edition which will be available for general release. I’m...

Anime/Manga and Ozzie today. There’s literally something going up for preorder every day next week. And only one day we know what it is. DC Digital wave on Tuesday. Todd generally doesn’t make announcements on preorder days, so I’m guessing we see some announcements coming this long holiday...
