I copped the OG Superman 78 figure and i love it. As a 70’s baby and 80’s kid, the first two Superman movies are my childhood and now i finally have a Christopher Reeve figure!!!💪🏻 jus copped like 3 more Batman figs too and i gotta say McFarlane has stepped his game up cuz i love these figures. Also, McFarlane is KILLIN it with the mini Batman Cowls🔥🔥

[@NinjaAimless]

Reeve is the reason I even like Superman, bro was the best looking guy to be Superman. If dude was here in this age Even the greatest of Henry Cavill would be over shadowed by a Christopher Reeve’s Superman with a 20’s physique😂.

16:08 The Legendary Billie Jean Also known as Helen Slater.

[@Justincredibletoys]

Yes, I remember seeing that Billie Jean movie and thank you. Damn she so was pretty and still is.

[@zombiesnstuff84]

I got the multiverse version the other day, and I totally dig it. It's certainly hit that nostalgia button, and he looks great flying over my 89 batmobile 😅

[@DDontaeDegraffenreid]

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 your funny I subscribe but I have the regular super man and the chase both are dope the comic looks okay but McFarlane did it with them 2 great figures 🙏🏽✨

[@packrat2k7]

I was excited that we were gonna get the Christopher Reeve Superman, but as time went on and I saw more of the face sculpt I changed my mind and cancelled my pre-order. It looked more like some guy cosplaying as him, than an actual Christopher Reeve Superman. It just didn't look enough like him (to *me*) to make it worth getting (might cave eventually because FOMO is hitting me like when I skipped that Helen Slater Supergirl for similar reasons). I kind of agree with you about the Wonder Woman. I have it and generally like it, but she deserved so much better. I'm hoping we can get a more definitive version one of these days. Still gonna track down some of those other variants though...

[@AlphaProto]

Nice amount of comics. I don't know how your other comic videos are doing, but reviewing comics and figures may be content people would like to see.

[@Justincredibletoys]

Thanks man I'm thinking about doing a deeper dive into that one day

[@3dArticulatedFigurePhotography]

Gotta agree with you. Spawn should be episodic and animated like Invincible.

[@lfabio.n]

I always thought from images that this Collector Edition Wonder Woman did not looked that good, it's nice to see someone who has the figure agreeing. I like the Rebirth Superman, it's my favorite McFarlane version of the character, and I also like the Platinum varsion of First Appearance, AKA Action Comics #1.

[@MichaelJosephRojas]

THANK YOU! THE MARVEL GIRL BOOTS THING IS INSANE. WHAT THE... I am a Wondy fanatic and McFarlane just can't make a definitive one. I like Terry Dodson's art, but that is a really specific Wonder Woman, not her definitive look. Anyone who sees that and passes it off as Diana's general look is not familiar, or is not that into major details. I agree the WW84 is McFarlane's best despite the pvc pipe legs. Her face is far enough above the uncanny valley to carry it. The Fury of Shazam one has the detached tiara, and they didn't paint the boots right on the BvS version. The Batman '66 one is almost fun, but much like the unpainted Jean Grey boots fiasco, Batman '66 Wondy has gold hair temples because the tiara piece has the temples sculpted onto it, amd we don't want to paint Wonder Woman's hair black so it all matches like Mattel does. I am holding out hope for a Silver Age style guide version, but at this point, I ordered a Mattel multiverse Lynda Carter this week, is about how impressed with McFarlane I am. Thaks for the balanced look at that Chris Reeve, looks cool. Shading is a weird choice on a version known from... not the comics, but Superman IS mister comic book, so I kinda like it.

[@bat_freak89]

My favorite tuber dawg fr keep it up 🤣🤣 I agree I got that WW too and she is mid

[@lfabio.n]

The WW you're talking about is the Last Knight on Earth with the Bane build a figure. That one looks well done. I had that Batman and I didn't like the way they did the torso and how the arms connected to the shoilders, but I liked the head sculpt.

[@3dArticulatedFigurePhotography]

I loved Richard Pryor but I didn't like him in a Superman movie.

[@cgtcoolguytvcollection3569]

Preach bro these fools don't know how to collect fam

[@kaleefhernandez7976]

That super man looks so cool from a far. It literally looks like he walked off a comic

[@melvinmcdonald8277]

I dig your content. I just subscribed, I'm very selective when it comes to DC multiverse. That Shazam is doing numbers right now. It's sold out on all the sites. I just ordered Pp animated red hood when he became available again on Amazon. I'd like to see your take on that figure. I'm a big red hood/Jason Todd fan. The last few figures they dropped of him have been ass. Cmon red hood review.

[@Hurricanelive]

they slippers, they red, they make you not only fast they make you faster than fast!

[@Ron-ep3zl]

I picked up both movie versions of Christopher Reeve, and I like them, but the articulation could be better. I passed on the version you showed because I'm not a fan of cell shading on my figures. They are nice figures for the price. He looks great with my Michael Keaton Batman.

[@Revengance6]

All I hear are complaints about McFarlane stuff these days. They suck. It’s like nobody does any evaluation at the company before they go into production. And it’s like they seem to forget that collectors are expected to buy this crap with money.

[@christophergraphia4698]

Right on! She’s in the TRINITY! She deserve better overall

[@3dArticulatedFigurePhotography]

I can't believe how hurt and defensive that people get when you're just giving an opinion. LMAO.

[@sunman1235]

Agree McFarlane is hit or miss. He be droppin some bangers and then he drop some trash lol.

[@Keking247]

I stick with the Mezco reeves Superman

[@culeroconnor1686]

I love. Reeves as. Superman I love that figure just got it today (the regular version but I am going to get the one you have as well) can't blame. You for not read the comic. As much as I like reeves's superman. His movies were super boring to be honest and I am sure the comic. Will follow the same pattern 😆

[@jamesl7988]

Yo! If you love those Greg Cox books (like I do), then you have to track down the audiobook versions on cd. They are unabridged, they have voice actors and sound effects and music, and they are incredible. They are from GRAPHIC AUDIO. They’re out of print now, but they are worth every penny. Final Crisis is available on KZbin for free (around 7 hours) if you want to give it a test run. They did Crisis/Infinite Earths (6ish hrs), Infinite Crisis (14hrs), Countdown, Final Crisis, as well as other DC stories like Batman No Mans Land and some original novel stuff. Worth every penny if you ever wanted to “hear” the stories come to life.

[@Justincredibletoys]

@@jamesl7988 hell yea thanks for that ! Gotta look that up

[@DamionAlBarr]

If you haven't already, switch out the neck peg for a slightly longer one and see if it makes a difference.

[@lfabio.n]

On the Christopher Reeve Page Punchers version? I think you have to heat the neck part and tuck inside suit, I didn't try that, but I'm planning on doing that.

[@DamionAlBarr]

@@lfabio.n Yeah, but I mean the neck peg between the neck and the head.

[@lfabio.n]

@ Oh, I get it, I was talking about the skin over the suit/cape situation. I'll try to do what you suggested. Thanks.

[@carloscunningham319]

Wow when I said what you just said too the McFarland Facebook community they started hating and talking shit saying you snooze you loose when I said she was sold out every where even on Todd McFarland store they wouldn't let me in too order power girl they laughed at me and Andre Washington sent the link for Best buy first time I've pre-ordered from them I got all three from that power girl wave they take the money soon when you pre-ordered that's cool atleast I know I'm getting them but all them power girls are on eBay some salers had 10 -8-12- a piece just of power girl double the price and more for preorders at the same time/moment I couldn't get into Todd McFarland website I kept getting that circle but once I was in they was gone ,but my girl was like hey Los their all on eBay right now so I started checking around too other salers all sold out ,an my girl was like how could they all be sold out but at the same time as the count down for power girl too drop their all on eBay for preorder 🤔 that was a inside job scalpers and Robots

[@Justincredibletoys]

@@carloscunningham319 it is bull! Please tell me you were able to get one at Best Buy?

[@carloscunningham319]

@@Justincredibletoys yes sir I got all three from that wave

[@DamionAlBarr]

I've seen the figure but couldn't get it at the time. But my observation is that the cell shading is more distracting than anything, but I'm sure some acetone could take care of that. Other than that, I like the figure.

[@jonfranks9953]

"make mcfarlane great again"

[@DamionAlBarr]

How's the waist articulation on that WW figure?

[@Justincredibletoys]

@@DamionAlBarr I don’t believe she has articulation, but I will have to double check

[@DamionAlBarr]

@@Justincredibletoys Fo sure. No articulation in the torso/waist area was a deal-breaker for me.

[@devonsmith4548]

Not sure whats up with that neck. why not just use the Collectors edition fig?

[@Triiplesiix]

You cool as shit bro I subbed 🤘

[@austincrafton178]

I'm sorry but that 78 superman figure is trash I hate those BIG AZZ wrist & ankle pegs and just the aesthetics of the figure seems wonky. I wish McFarlane would make a ICON FIGURE and do some Dwayne Mcduffie characters.

[@McServers2000]

Haha they literally just announced him

[@austincrafton178]

Yeah I just heard about it that's crazy it's all good. We need more from the Dwayne McDuffie characters.

[@FantasyDisruption]

Yeah she doesnt look great
