I don't think I picked up 10 batmen this year so I'll just do a top 5 lol 5. Blackest Night - pretty fun figure, poses great, wish the belt had been painted 4. Hazmat Suit- Sadly I never found the light up one, but the mold is great as is and its a fun toy 3. Rebirth- I love this figure, but I find him hard to stand cause of the stupid thick cape coupled with the older ankles 2. Gold Label Dark Detective- very fun to pose in some brawling stances, I don't mind the ears 1. Speeding Bullets- easily the best superman or batman figure we have gotten, poses so well, has everything it needs, I love it Lookin forward to what 2023 has to offer us all, from mcfarlane and you

A Batman by any other name is still McFarlane's cash cow and what keeps DC Multiverse afloat. But in all seriousness, it does seem like every year that Todd has the license, there's always that one Batman figure that slips through the cracks as it being one step closer to being the definitive Batman figure that we've been waiting for. Maybe we'll get it in that Batman/Spawn set Todd teased all the way back during NYCC. Whenever that gets revealed.
@5POAFigureReviews Жыл бұрын
I can remember Todd talking about the desire to do a Spawn/Batman set as far back as the Kenner days, around when they were doing those large scale Legends of the Dark Knight. I remember him saying he'd love it if they did the Spawn and he did the Batman and they could somehow pack them together. The thought of a McFarlane Batman back then had me over the moon. Little did I know...

I may just have to do a video on it, BUT gut reaction the Multiverse is an new sculpt and includes all the panel lines and kneepads, whereas the Essentials is just a repaint of their basic body. I also prefer the length on of the cape on Multiverse. That said, I like the head on Essentials better. Now I want to do a video lol

You are not bothering me at all! Thanks so much for the question and for putting so much trust in my opinion. I'll be honest, I don't really like the Dark Knight Returns Batman all that much. It is a really great figure, just not my preferred version of Batman. If you like it though, it's probably the best one you'll get of TDKR short I'd Mafex or Mezco. I haven't reviewed it yet, but I I do have Blue and Gray Hush and it is great. Keep in mind though it will be the tallest. That said, in order, I'd say Hush, Three Jokers, and TDKR. Hope that helps!

Btw the Arkham City figure was wrongly sculpted it was a reuse of Asylum. Arkham city had a navy/midnight blue cape, shin guards had yellow and so was the guards itself have a different sculpt. Belt in AC is more circular than the box shape than AA. The reuse of the body is fine but there should be added parts
