Nam Ek coming to the movie line
>>5616034
I was just about to ask about these, need me a Faora and Zod
>>5616034
Any other characters?
>>5616301
yeah. they are doing man of steel, dawn of justice and suicide squad too
>>5616320
What scale? Like I figure it's 1/12, but is that 1/12 Marvel Legends or 1/12 Dc Icon?
>>5616656
NECA scale, so about 7"
Icons = ML scale, btw
There's been a creep with newer MLs to the point that they're almost NECA scale now.
>>5616656
Amazon lists Zod, Supes and Batman as being 6 3/4" inches with Faora slightly under that.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01CDV3FLE/ref=s9_al_bw_g21_i3
>>5616662
Nah, icons are shorter than Legends. They're all markets next to Marvel guys.
>>5616663
>$45
Is that just some scalper pre-release price, or is that MSRP?
>>5616731
*manlets
>>5616732
MSRP. A few stores have the DC Films figures for $40. Like most DCC figures, the Amazon price will probably drop slowly for a few months after release.
Where can I get the Crime Syndicate guys?
Amazon hates me because I'm not american and I hate it back.
>>5616320
I kinda want to get MoS Zod and build him comfy house. The movies bully him like they got nothing better to do.
>>5616756
*build him a comfy house
DC november solicits hit earlier, JL icons pack is more affordable than i expected at 125.00
>>5616731
except not
>>5616803
Here's an example of ML's up scaling creep.
SpiderMan should be Batman's height and Batman should be spider-man's height.
DCC Icons = MLs. They're both as off scale as each other.
>>5616803
It completely fucking mystifies me why they didn't put some fucking thigh swivels on the DCIs.
I love how that Batman looks but that detail alone stops me from buying it.
>>5616848
I honestly barely notice it; the hips have a pretty good range of movement and rotation. But I mostly collect Jows, so maybe I'm just used it.
I hope they make an Apocalypse Batman/regular Batman in that line. I dont see why they wouldnt.
Still fucking waiting....
The DCI 7 pack is coming out in fall correct? Or will each of the figures be released separately?
>>5616785
whoa whoa whoa
These won't be individual releases?
>>5616941
Me too. I keep checking sites and the date keeps changing. So ridiculous. I still gotta buy the Bruce Wayne pack someday too.
>>5617956
They've only been announced as a 7 pack.
>>5617956
Wonder Woman and Cyborg have already been revealed as coming as singles with accessories. GL is already out.
>>5617956
The Superman, Flash and Batman out right now are different versions from the one in the pack. So you would have to get the pack for them.
>>5616941
me three brehs ;-;
Do you think Mafex will make more DCEU figures? Or should I go for the DC Collectibles?
Hey /toy/ I was wondering if you guys can help me choose the best 6 inch comicbook Batman figure it there, probably going to go with this figure because the price is good, but rather have your opinion instead.
>>5618249
i'm partial to the capullo designer series batman
http://news.toyark.com/2014/05/14/dcc-designer-series-capullo-batman-hand-gallery-124625
>>5618257
Lack of ankle pivot nearly kills the figure.
>>5618257
That Batman looks really neat but what about this Batman. How is his quality?
Did that frowny Nathan Drake Batman get released yet
the one with the short sleeves
>>5618413
He's good, though some of his articulation is a bit awkward. He's a lot of fun to fiddle around with. He's slightly short compared to similar figures. As an aside, he's actually Dick Grayson as Batman, if that means anything to you.
>>5618257
Isn't it 7 inch?
>>5618513
close to it
>>5616848
As someone who had the same concern, I was very impressed to see there's actually enough play in the hip joint to get what you need. It's not perfect but it works better than you'd expect. When the leg is straight the rotation is limited, but the more you lift the leg, the more it can rotate, so it works surprisingly well. These aren't like the BTAS figures with DCUC hips and no swivel.
>>5618524
>it works better than you'd expect
This is /toy/
People only care if it's perfect, because they violently become upset that feet aren't perfectly parallel to the ground.
>>>Trigger Warning Image Incoming<<<
>>5618943
To be fair, if the figure has the articulation to do a proper pose like the image you posted does and you don't, it's sort of silly.
>>5618441
That's what I thought, his arms were surprisingly thin for Bruce Wayne.
>>5618441
>you'll have to buy the JL set to get a Bruce Wayne Batman
I like DickBat but I want a normal Batman that doesn't look like a tacticool pansy first.
DickBats and Damian 2-pack when?
>>5619365
He's definitely gonna get an individual release at some point. It'll probably be announced in the intervening months before that pack is out.
>>5618151
They've already done a good chunk of the main heroes + Joker, I don't see the line getting as expansive as DCC but if you like the quality and don't mind the price I'd say go for it.
>>5618413
The spikes/blades being on the interior side of the forearm really kills the figure for me.
Fuck. Yes.
>>5623565
>that face
Why does mafex keep doing unmasked/helmeted faces for their figures? Like they think they're actually doing a good job
>>5623642
It's perfectly good headsculpt
So is Kylo Ren's.
So is WW.
ur dumb
>>5623565
>Literally Muhammad Bin-Aflecki
>>5623868
We'll see just how good it looks when it's released.
>>5618441
That definitely isn't DickBats. Dick had gauntlets with only two fins instead of the standard three and his belt was different from the figure shown here. Here's the B&W statue for comparison.
>>5616034
Is the Arkham series Robin any good? I've found one at a local comic shop for $10, and I might pick it up if it is.
>>5624074
Its not bad, $10 for it is a good deal
>>5624104
How's the articulation? The only actual DC figure I have is the DCI Tim Drake Robin, so if it's anything like that then I'm definitely grabbing it.
>>5624055
>272x320
yeah, that's uh. really helpful thanks
so glad i can see all the detail on this 32KB picture
>>5625301
Is this better for you princess?
>>5618943
I thought a smelled a turd. Is this subjectanon? Is this you being "tough on western figures"?
because it just seems like you're just being dismissive and misrepresenting people's criticisms so you can deepthroat some dcc.
>>5618943
DC Icons can have flat footed stances really easily though. Their ankles are great.
>New BatFamily figures show up every five seconds
>Still no decent figure of Rucka/Williams-era Batwoman
>>5624055
It's based on Batman: Last Rites, in which Dick is Batman.
You dirty fucking casual.
>>5623565
this is the dark knight we deserve
>>5624038
Daesh, you mean.
>>5626066
It's literally the same thing.
The only reason people call it Daesh is because ISIS reminds them that "Islamic" is part of their name and agenda.
>>5625961
Last Rites is actually when Batman relives a perverted version of his history due to the Lump. Bruce eventually breaks free of the Lumps influence and the final pages direct lead into his confrontation with Darkseid. You mother fucking pleb.
>>5625582
No shit?
Just making fun of how some people on /toy/ are super autistic about figures needing feet always being parallel to the floor.
>>5626527
ikr? almost as bad as people being super autistic about sculpted mustaches.
>>5626531
Too right, totally unneeded on highly stylized kid toys.
>>5626264
Not that anon but none of that actually happens in Last Rites part of the series.
>>5627070
It does though. What he's describing is from Batman #682 and #683, in which Bruce used that exact costume, and were pretty explicitly billed as being part of Last Rites.
>>5627108
Hmm, oh well.
Either way DC Collectibles disagrees with you, they've said it's dickbats. Maybe you should tell them.
So i've just recently played Arkham Asylum and bough Arkham City (i know, pic related), are the figures based on the games any good?
Alternatively, what are some good batman figures?
7" would be ideal as it means it would be able to fight my Neca predators, but i'm ok with 6" too.
>>5628090
1. No.
2. Mezco Dark Knight Returns
>>5628090
>>5628114
Anon is lying to you. Some of the DCC Arkham figures are decent... but yeah, if you want the best, look elsewhere. I don't own the whole line, so I'll leave it to other anons to specify which ones might be worth picking up.
Alternatively, the Mezco is probably as good as it gets for a while, but the Mafex Bale Bat 2.0 is solid, their upcoming Batfleck looks good, and there's a Figuarts of the Injustice design that's okay if you like the design and don't mind a shitty cape.
>>5628090
The DCC AC series 4 Batman with all the articulation is probably the best from AA or AC, but it's not a spectacular figure.
>>5627139
>DC collectibles makes a shit figure that is too short,shorter than almost every other figure in the line
>b-but it's supposed to be dick grayson guys
I bet you also defended them when they used to use that garbage clear plastic that broke if you looked at it funny
>>5628211
I feel like they intentionally made it DickBats just so they could have a Batman in the first wave; but at the same time make it so that there's space for a proper Batman later when the line is better.
This was right after Last Rites, wasn't it? Last Rites wasn't limited to just those Batman issues either.
>>5628211
>clear plastic that broke if you looked at it funny
The only time I've ever seen anyone break a DCD figure is on some guy's youtube, where he's trying to spin the joint around at like 20mph.
Pretty fucking dumb, which would explain why I've never broken any of mine.
Since we've been seeing lots of artist rendition figures lately how long till they release best batman? The only current option for a Mignola style Bats is the (admittedly great) BW statue and the old Hellboy comic figures are too expensive for me to buy just to customize nowadays.
>>5629743
forgot image
>>5629753
>>5628218
Yes that is the reason I mean it's obvious
>>5629785
I believe it's the bat creature from BvS.
>>5629753
That looks pretty cool. I need a monster figure
>>5629753
>>5629754
>>5629857
Why'd they make it look so dopey? Really need a QQ rip to come out or a design book cuz that looks like crap
>>5629021
See, that's what I thought too. I wasn't a hamhanded motherfucker so I had some Arkham Origins figures that lasted a while. The thing about the clear plastic is that it's volatile, apparently, because my Killer Croc's arm tore off after years of being fine.
>>5629754
Weird. Derpy face.
But that's a nice base for customs. Maybe a cool gargoyle or something.
>>5629753
>>5629754
Oh, hey, a shitty version of the aliens from independence Day.
>>5630400
>See, that's what I thought too. I wasn't a hamhanded motherfucker so I had some Arkham Origins figures that lasted a while. The thing about the clear plastic is that it's volatile, apparently, because my Killer Croc's arm tore off after years of being fine.
I've read that larger figures have problems, but after years and years of handling and playing my DCD stuff, nothing's happened.
>>5628310
Battle of the Cowl != Last Rites. Once again the Last Rites issues were when Bruce was being held in Darkseids lab where they attempted to clone him and make an army of Batmen. This cover is BftC was afterwards and Dick never actually wears the costume from that cover.
Any word of a Hot Toys Harley Quinn from Suicide Squad?
>Its a Superman figure...but he's BLACK!
>Cover his face
Is this an honest mistake or /pol/ shenanigans on TRU's part?
>>5632062

>>>/co/mblr
Are DC Icons in scale with S.H Figuarts?
>>5632450
Figuarts aren't even in scale with themselves, so no.
It's only a coincidence if they're ever in scale, so it depends on the figure.
>>5629743
>>5629745
The statue is fucking amazing.
>>5632450
I mean kind of?
>>5630027
problem is its a monster figure and its teeth arent showing
a big no no of action figure production
>>5632450
Are scalefags /toy/'s version of SAUCE? It never gets less annoying.
>>5632521
Isn't Vader supposed to be bigger than Luke anyways?
>>5633579
Except the shf Vader isn't. Hell the unmasked head is almost bigger than the helmeted head.
>>5632909
It is but if they could get the guy who sculpted the old Mezco figures to do an articulated figure that would be insane.
>>5632450
Hope this helps anon. I just have those two so sorry and I threw a little more for sake of size comparation, I might add that from some reviews I've seen characters like Black Adam are bigger in general and Blue Beatle smaller than Dickbats
I love my icons they are really fun the colors are so great.
I waiting for a Nightwing, a classic Robin and a Kyle. I just want Superman to come out already
>>5635542
>Flash is taller than Batman
>Spider-Man is taller than Flash
fucked up scales
>>5635561
Don't know a lot but Dick(which this batman I hope is based off) is 5'10 and Barry is like 6' so makes sense and Legends are really just bigger
>>5635568
And might as well Freddie was 5'9 just like Goku is 5'7 or 5'9 so it works really well so far and Hal is 6'2
>>5624047
This is EXACTLY what I'm afraid of, and why I haven't pre-ordered any of the DC, Iron Man or Star Wars Mafex figures.
>>5635568
>Don't know a lot but Dick(which this batman I hope is based off) is 5'10
PRetty dumb excuse, i think, since no one is supposed to know Batman was no longer Batman. All other times someone has pretended to be Batman, they always made sure to copy him just right, including wearing platforms.
>>5635582
In one recent run when Dick is bats and Damian is Robin, when they just started they went to speech to Gordon and other cop, the other cop states something about Batman being shorter. Can't remember too much
>>5635542

>>5635906
Still pretty dumb, but i guess that's nu52 for you.
BTW, was that written by morrison?
>>5636364
Yeah no, the New 52 didn't start for another three years after that, and Batman & Robin's early issues dealt heavily with how Dick found it hard to fill Bruce's shoes and didn't want to in the first place.
>>5635917
I put it there just for the dank meems
Hopefully the new Blue Beetle series means we'll get a new Ted figure to go along with the new Jaime figure.
>>5636429
>not nu52 but still morrison
I seriously hate morrison's new shit.
>>5637243
What about Multiversity?
>>5637243
That's stupid, you're stupid. Morrison's Batman & Robin was a great book.
>>5637262
didn't give it a chance, considering how much i disliked most of morrison's 00s stuff.
When sre they gonna announce more Icons? Need me some new guys
>>5636845
Amen to that
>>5635542
FLASH
AAAAA AAAAAH
HE'LL SAVE EVERY ONE OF US
>>5637771
They're doing pretty bad with timely releases as it is, maybe they're trying to actually make the figures they've already promised.
>>5638127
Hey guys, it has been 15 hours and not one reply?
What the hell, do you know how hard I work to make my posts funny?
>>5639778
Try harder and they might actually be funny.
>>5639778
Did you remember to put the joke in?
I need updated pics of that animated clay face
>>5639778
Apparently not hard enough
>>5630406
That's what I was thinkin; snip the wings and the feet off and you're 90% of the way there to a Krampus 2015 custom.
>>5639778
you forgot to talk about how you get fucked in the ass by your transgender "girl" friend faggot
>>5642431
I remember seeing that with my friends. Halfway through one of the horror scenes, I leaned over and said
>This is why I don't have Christmas with white people
What happened to the Superman DC Icons wave? No early reviews, no in-hand pictures, no nothing.
>>5644461
...and no accurate estimated time of delivery. It's been delayed, I think this is the 2nd or 3rd delay for the figure.
>>5644461
According to bbts for June
>>5635542
This is my favorite justice league lineup.
>buy GA Icon figure off Amazon

You can feel the disapointment in Ollie's face
>>5623565
goddamn that is fantastic
>>5651330
There is your problem. Those are fists!
>>5650677
I so hope it's a smiling face. DC needs to get rid of angry Supes.
Since tomorrow is free comic book day, thinking of picking up some DC Icons at a discount, but wondering what the quality is like compared to Marvel Legends. Also wondering if anyone can recommend some of the better figures from this line so far, w/ good articulation/ accessories.
>>5653040
Get Flash, Black Adam, Blue Beetle, Green Arrow.
>>5653076
Thanks anon, how's the quality though? They seem well painted, but I've seen some horror stories (including the Green Arrow pic in this thread) online about plastic quality.
>>5653366
I have the Batman and Flash and they are good quality wise. My 4 year old cousin has the green lartern and that it's hanging on with the little devil
>>5653366
I have a couple and i think you really need to hamhand it to break them. Limbs pop off like everything else as they should without anything breaking.
Much much better QC than MLs and easily on par with most collector lines, including Revoltech and Figuarts. Probably the best QC than other collector lines besides Mezco's.
>>5653366
Be careful with Flash's cowl-wings
>>5616034 (OP)
>>5616320
How is this line coming along?
Are they still on Nam Ek?
Do you guys know where I could find a half way decent traditional Superman figure?
I mean, lord almighty, look at this thing.
>>5656869
What's wrong with it?
>>5656897
Eh, never mind. It's fine.
>>5656869
I'm curious why you don't like it?
I'm with you though I want a Superman but every figure I see is a hot pile of shit
But very well there is a Lee Bermejo Superman coming which I personally really like the sculpt
You seen like a guy who isn't fond of the movies but with enough imagination the Mafex and even the DC films(kind of) look like a new 52 Superman
There is the figuarts too but nah I want a smiling Superman personally
>>5656902
I dunno, it's something about the head and the logo. But whatever, it's alright.
>>5656869
Neca to the rescue
How has there not been a halfway decent figure of this design yet?
>>5621185
THIS.
Easily almost a 10/10 figure if it weren't for that.
>>5658650

Okay guys, it has been 2 days ... I'm beggining to think that you are all ignoring me ... I even put a funny filename this time ...
>>5662188
Forgot my name but heh, at least I got trips
How does the Icons Mister Miracle look with the DCUC Big Barda? Are they appropiately sized together?
Also, I have a few DCUC figures in my collection that I'd actually like to get rid of. I don't want them to go to waste, so what would say is the best way to get rid of them since I know they probably won't sell for much.
I'm mainly going to keep the guys I know will never ever get figures again like the Doom Patrol and Eclipso and Ares.
Any idea on when pic related is set to be released? Shouldn't it be soon?
I'm looking for ANY 6 inch Batman figure that can somewhat pull off a crossed arms pose. Suggestions?
>>5664602
For a second I thought that was the stealth Batsuit from Superman Unchained. I wonder if that thing's ever appeared again.
>>5664927
The Figuarts maybe? Mezco's can get his arms across his chest but I think the bulky arms can be a problem.
What are some of the best Robin figures? I'm trying to get a nice little collection. I already have the Son of Batman animated movie version of Damian, but I'd like something with wrist/ankle joints as well.
>>5664958
>stealth suit with bright glowing marks and a giant glowing logo
>>5666048
It's a stealth suit in that it literally turns invisible. and cloaks itself in a way even Superman can't see.
>>5666059
>Darkseid is part of Batman's rogue gallery now
God fucking dammit, DC.
>>5664481
Dunno about the scale, but I'd doubt it, since DCUC are oversized for 1/12 and DCI are a bit small for 1/12.
As for selling, put them on the BST.
>>5666042
DCUC has some, but they're hardly good. Wait for an Icons, maybe?
>>5666132
That's Wraith, you moron.
>>5666133
That would actually work perfectly if Mattel didn't botch the fuck outta Barda by making her smaller than Mister Miracle

Mafex Batman or Mezco Batman, I don't know what to save up for /toy/.
>>5669280
What kind of Batman do you want?
I'd say go with the Mafex if you want a normal Batman toy. Clothes on toys sound like a hassle to clean.
>>5669317

>>5669370

>>5666042 here, how is the PAK Robin figure? I've been thinking about getting that, and preordering Dick too.
>>5669727
yeah, but if you just dust him like once a month, it should never be a problem.
Only way the clothes would ever require more than a sweep of a brush would be if you're a smoker.
In which case, you deserve everything bad that happens to you.
>>5670211
I have the Arkham City Robin and it's alright, but I also paid ~$40 for it. I can't imagine paying much more for a PAK, so consider carefully.
