UNMASKED BRUCE WAYNE HEAD SWAPS! McFarlane Toys Digital DC Rebirth Batman Action Figure Review

[@drakocarrion]

I haven't seen anyone saying they think the digital figure thing is anything worthwhile to date. It's certainly not a selling point.

[@5POAFigureReviews]

I will explore this more in my Green Lantern video, and another one I am working on discussing Mcfarlane Toys in general, but I think what it boils down to is that while there might be some small bleed over, in general action figure collectors and NFT collectors are two separate speculator markets with very different interests. I don't see a lot of people even bothering to check out the Digital collectables that come with the figures, no less get into them. BUT with DC Multiverse running as high as 22.99, a couple extra bucks for more accessories is value I can be okay with.

[@MTB214]

I’m not into digital either. If those digital figures could be used as skins in any video game I think gamers would be interested. A friends wife is 8th Pokémon cards to buy and sell at profit, sort of like stocks or nfts so there may be some market for the digital, but not regular collectors.

[@ScottAT]

I imagine it’s something that might catch on in the future, give it time. In 10 years, sell it.

[@guysfieri8900]

todd would rather make nfts than make thigh cuts standard on his figures

[@BowserTheThird]

😂😂

[@Sillygloopgloop]

Id love to make an unmasked barry and bruce shake hands

[@rustyshackelford5892]

I was literally watching this before walking into target and found it lol had to buy

[@5POAFigureReviews]

Perfect timing!

[@thescarletandgrey2505]

Co-worker: “Well you know, seems like I accidentally ate your steak and Swiss cheese sandwich, again….” Worker: “That’s ok, I can sit and look at this digital rendering of it on my I-phone.” Said no worker, ever

[@5POAFigureReviews]

Ha! Why collect figures when I can just download jpgs of them? They will look great with my Hasbro windowless boxes

[@missboozehound]

Headswaps hey!!! 👋 Definitely on board with the digital as I have been using the HRO NFT cards adding them to my collection.

[@5POAFigureReviews]

I appreciate you commenting on the digital part. So far it seems people mostly either don't like it or are just ambivalent to it, so it's good to hear from someone who enjoys it.

[@braydenpage1808]

The "ever thought about growing a mullet" line is perfect because my buddies keep telling me to 😂 Todd being so out of the loop that he thinks NFT's are still a thing people care about is wild. Just give up on it.

[@nocturnaldreamzz]

Thank you so much for doing that head swap! It looks pretty cool! Great video as well.

[@5POAFigureReviews]

You're welcome! Glad you liked it!

[@dsmara-y8f]

If anyone's curious, there is a gold label unmasked variant for Zur en Arrh. Its more of a angry teeth gritted expression but having different expressions may interest some of you.

[@5POAFigureReviews]

I completely forgot about that!! Thanks for the reminder

[@ghostharlow8962]

Finally found this one at Walmart and has easily become my favorite multiverse figure just from the colors alone.

[@anthonium.]

New to McFarlane here and just started with both the Batman figure from Batman vs Superman (Batfleck) and this figure and I love both. This figure being a bit smaller is a plus for me. Coming from 6 inch figures the McFarlane feel quite large. Great video! Used it as feedback prior to purchasing. :)

[@MrScottyr86]

Despite not being comic accurate, I really love the blue they used for this version of Rebirth Batman. Really like both the new masked headsculpt (big improvement over the old one!) and the unmasked Bruce Wayne head. I especially love how the unmasked head looks on the Knightfall body. Just perfect!

[@5POAFigureReviews]

I'm really happy with it too!

[@beezlebubb]

Hey this might be a weird question but I'm starting work on a custom kitbash and repaint of Batman for my brother since I already have Superman, which Batman would be a good base for a Arkham based custom?

[@11mcglothlincr]

I repainted a flashpoint superman head for my knightfall batman, but for anyone who needs a head with no modding this'll be a great pickup

[@MidnightShadowStriker]

I ordered this blue variant of the rebirth figure and it’s nothing like the colors as advertised. It has more of a Batman hush mafex blue than the glossy royal blue I was hoping for… did they release different versions of the same color or something??

[@5POAFigureReviews]

I'm not aware of multiple versions of this release. Anybody know anything about that?

[@chillyinsummer]

I don't know if you're still answering comments, but do you have any body recommendations to put the head sculpt on for a full Bruce Wayne look?

[@5POAFigureReviews]

I have seen people use the Lucius Fox black suited Platinum and repaint the neck and hands to make it look like a tux. Otherwise, if you repainted Spider-Man Tombstone and found a way to give him a neck that could work. Unfortunately, there are no easy fixes to that one, nothing that won't require some extra work

[@5POAFigureReviews]

Come to think of it, you might find some luck with a wrestling figure. I don't know wrestlers, but I know that there are some wrestling figures in suits. That might be a way to go also

[@carlgibson285]

The Diamond Select Gotham Jim Gordon is a decent 7 inch scale suited figure, but I'm not sure how easy it would be to attach a McFarlane head sculpt on a Diamond Select body.

[@anthonium.]

In hand this figure is pretty amazing. There's just something about it I really love.

[@5POAFigureReviews]

Yeah, I enjoy it too

[@porko882]

I know its a 12" scale but spin master released a blue rebirth Batman. I think a 3 3\4 scale version came with the batcave and one with an all yellow batsymbol came with the glider thing.

[@mar-z6l]

great video Jason!

[@Happy.Hippo.49]

Cool vid! I’m kinda on the fence just because I’m don’t really like the new Batman head sculp, but I really like some of the head swaps you did, so I might get it

[@redboone1509]

Are you getting the Plastic man wave or the Spawn/Todd-Father 2 pack

[@5POAFigureReviews]

Plastic Man wave, yes. Green Lantern and Aquaman videos go up Friday and Sunday! Probably not getting Spawn/Todd two pack

[@alextriplett9414]

I just got this figure, and I like it a lot

[@straker454]

Did you ever try the Hush Batman in black on the Spawn Batman two-pack version of Batman?

[@5POAFigureReviews]

Their heads are not compatible for head swaps unfortunately.

[@straker454]

@@5POAFigureReviews I thought those both used the Hush body, or is the tooling at the top of the cape preventing a fit?

[@palm2428]

Thanks for the video! i love the figure, since I don't have the original. As for digital, i'm glad mcfarlane likes to take risks. I'm young so I see the future moving towards digital. If you don't want the digital code I'll take it. I see a lot of hate, but I'm of the opposite opinion. thanks again!

[@MiguelLopez-ll5us]

i have the platinum version of zur en arhh and it came with a Bruce Head, very crazy lookin'

[@5POAFigureReviews]

I was saying to another commented I totally forgot that existed!

[@lil_C2909]

Can you make review for that Batman play set in some of the shots if you haven’t already??

[@5POAFigureReviews]

I hadn't thought about that, but that would be a lot of fun!

[@elwoodjacobs4353]

Anyone know of any good Multiverse figures with a business suit to put the Bruce Wayne head on?

[@5POAFigureReviews]

I've seen people use Lucius Fox and then just paint the neck Caucasian and either paint the hands or swap them. The Christian Bale head on the black suited body makes for a nice Batman Begins tuxedo/birthday party figure

[@HappyBirthdayRoboto]

For me the purchase is worth it for the Bruce Wayne head, great review Jason.

[@5POAFigureReviews]

Thank you!

[@TeamEmerald3]

What is that digital thing mcfarlane does?

[@razorwashere5858]

You can put a 3d model of a figure in a digital gallery, which is a stupid reason to increase the price

[@denisetorres8326]

It’s an nft

[@MTB214]

The other digital thing is the QR code on the side of the box which is for a video game.

[@rowntreeplayz]

11:10 man why didn't McFarlane give batman that head sculpt or at least gave the black variant that head, I don't know if its worth the $45 dollars to make that combo.

[@5POAFigureReviews]

If you don't already have the black and grey one, no definitely not. If you can get it for like $13 on Amazon though that's another thing

[@rowntreeplayz]

McFarlane is one of those companies where they'll ether release the best figure or do one thing that messes up the whole figure, I wish McFarlane was more consistent.

[@MTB214]

Mine should be coming in a few days. I never got the first one so don’t mind getting this repaint. I look forward to the alternative unmasked head, which I actually usually don’t like. It’s like when you’re a kid and finding out Santa isn’t real.

[@5POAFigureReviews]

He's not...?

[@MTB214]

@@5POAFigureReviews he’s real in all our hearts.

[@redboone1509]

I bet the speeding bullets Batman head would look good on Terry Maginnis or Future State Batman

[@5POAFigureReviews]

I could see it, for sure

[@nonstopoulos]

what alfred is that?

[@5POAFigureReviews]

Mattel DC Comics Multiverse, I think it was the Killer Croc wave

[@redboone1509]

I really like how mcfarlane toys has started hiding the ball joints in the wrist and ankles. The newer looks are so much better than the older ones like the Batman who Laughs

[@32.duongvanhoangvu23]

When will you review the Mafex Hush Superman?

[@5POAFigureReviews]

Sometime in May.

[@legotimefuntime5438]

Can somebody please explained to me what is a digital figure?

[@5POAFigureReviews]

A 3D digital model of a figure that you keep in a digital showroom. There collector value comes from only a limited number of access codes being made. Pretty much an NFT

[@WayneJayne24]

I really wanted to see how the new batman head would have looked on the future state batman body. I'm sure it would have been cool, though. I definitely hope I can find this batman in stores soon.

[@5POAFigureReviews]

Ah sorry about that.

[@WayneJayne24]

I just found this Batman at my local Target along with the Detective Comics Number 27 Batman, and I am in love with these Batmen. And also the head swap with future State Batman, and if the mask was painted black, it would be awesome. And i also did a head swap with dark Knight's death metal Batman, and the head swap between those two was amazing.

[@redboone1509]

That Batman head is a great look for Batman. He looks so unamused

[@jamesastra2503]

So many artists have drawn Bruce Wayne that there is no one way he should look but at the same time that does not look like Bruce Wayne.

[@Reach008]

It’s driving me nuts that with all these batmen that Todd has done, he’s yet to do my two favorites; Origins and New 52!

[@5POAFigureReviews]

I have seen rumors of a New 52 coming

[@brandofigure]

Glad I decided to pass on this Batman. He looks so small compared to other Batman figures. Even Knightfall and BVS are taller than that and they’re not even that tall compared to others.

[@5POAFigureReviews]

Yeah, sadly he is is pretty small. Smallest DC Multiverse Batman I am pretty sure. Him and Injustice 2 anyways

[@joelamel8056]

Rigamarole done ✅

[@5POAFigureReviews]

Thanks Joe!

[@DC-Supreme]

Hate that head sculpt

[@markelliott9984]

The digital thing is stupid. Whats the point of an action figure u cant pose and hold in ur hands?

[@damianwayne8229]

Injustice 2 Bruce Wayne is Asian for some reason lol.

[@5POAFigureReviews]

Nah just narrowing his eyes suspiciously like on the Animated Series lol
