Did you get your Gold Label Brainiacs yet? What are your thoughts?

[@mtgamateurnight]

I bought the classic detective Batman for my 6 year old nephew and his first question to me was "Where is Joker?" McFarlane really needs to put out a Joker and Lex Luthor, they are sorely missed!

[@JustBSingProductions]

100%! You should send that story to McFarlane Toys lol

[@mtgamateurnight]

Sadly, I have not had good experiences dealing directly with McFarlane Toys. From their lack of quality control when mailing figures directly to lack of answers/responses with customer service. I do not see myself reaching out or buying directly from then again. EE has some problems but they are cheaper, have had better communication with me and the figures always arrive crisp and clean. @@JustBSingProductions

[@JustBSingProductions]

Understandable. Unfortunately, we’ve actually had the opposite experience with EE in the few purchases we’ve tried to make with them, but I know they are still a solid retailer so I try not to let our personal experiences cloud our judgement too much. I’m glad to hear they are treating you well!

[@Dragonrider1227]

No kidding! Go see if you can find him a ToyBiz Joker loose at a good price

[@mtgamateurnight]

@@Dragonrider1227 I got him a BTAS joker that he likes a lot.

[@Dragonrider1227]

I can see why some people weren’t thrilled with the Superfriends Braniac since the Kenner one was so much cooler looking but it amuses me because it reminds me of that Cartoon Network promo with him shouting; “I JUST WANT SOME PANTS! A DECENT PAIR OF PANTS!”

[@JustBSingProductions]

😂😂 I forgot about that!

[@the_flyattractor8656]

This version of Brainy is my Fav Version from the Comics! Tie or second with the Terminator Verson though. Totally Cool!

[@JustBSingProductions]

Agreed!

[@maximusprime3459]

Honestly, if you recolored "Panic" Brainiac's goatee, he would make a decent Ming the Merciless.

[@JustBSingProductions]

😂😂 for real!

[@uhhuhhuh100]

McFarlane needs to bring us the Kenner version of Brainiac. The gold label Brainiac with ship are ridiculous on eBay right now going over $200!

[@JustBSingProductions]

Yeah, I saw that! It’s crazy.

[@uhhuhhuh100]

@@JustBSingProductions All of the scalpers have made it more difficult to afford stuff like this and Black Manta. I had to buy 2 Black Mantas (one carded, one loose/complete in the figure tray). I ended up selling the carded one that helped me cut down the price of my loose figure to only having almost $24 invested in it. My local Walmart never carried this "exclusive" figure. They never carried anything from waves 4-6. They have just recently brought out wave 7 stuff out. I'm hoping they'll get wave 8 out immediately when it gets released.

[@dakkarjust]

Ordered all from MacFarlane, just got notification that it has been shipped today. Cant wait to get them. However, I missed getting the bundle, but i bought each of them separately, the Yellow Sinestro and Gold Superman, I ordered from another site and got them a few weeks ago.

[@JustBSingProductions]

You’ll love the rest! Surprised yours didn’t ship earlier. I was told the delays were really only affecting people who ordered the bundles. Guess not!

[@nicklucero2994]

I didn’t hop on the pre-order but I know a guy that got two and only mildly scalped me for his second. This is probably one of my favorite vehicles - it’s perfect and brainiac and his cape are awesome. This was absolutely the best wave - so fun. Thanks for what you do - there’s not a lot of SP content and even less really good SP content so I appreciate you very much!!!

[@JustBSingProductions]

Nice man! Glad you were able to get one without getting raked over the coals (badly, anyway lol)! Really appreciate that. We’re having a blast collecting and sharing with everyone!

[@danielgtierrez]

I preorder the panic in the sky on feb. 1st and they shipped it on May 11 (arrived on May 13). The preorder sold out like in 1 hour or less (Mcfarlane Store Charge you at that moment, Amazon preorders Charge you when they ship the package). That was the first time that I buy a Super Power mcfarlane. Also I bought almost all the wave 7 on amazon (except the Yellow Lantern sinestro and the gold superman, Never find them). Now I have deathstroke, Lord superman, Darkseid, The 3pack of peacemaker (probably I would resell the Judo Master, I didnt like it), Sinestro (superfriends version), green lantern Hall jordan, Nightwing, Flash Variant is like dark red and John Steward (8 bucks on amazon) I think that The Brainiac Panic in the Sky is the best figure of all waves of SuperPowers. I hope that they release Lex Luthor, Chetah or the Hall of Justice (gold label maybe) in the next waves

[@JustBSingProductions]

Glad you got everything! Yes, would love to see Luthor, Cheetah, and the Hall of Justice! Also a Tower/Hall of Doom at some point.

[@maximusprime3459]

Looks cool and the Brainiac variant is awesome. Too bad I already have a Brainiac tho. I'm iffy on the ship.

[@justinmohan7103]

I love your channel and how its DC Focused. Thanks for the review

[@JustBSingProductions]

You bet, and thank you!

[@jontuell5338]

Good job, fellas. Nice, simple format. Plz don't be OVERLY nice. Lol

[@JustBSingProductions]

Lol thanks! Go check out our Wave 6 video. We weren’t as nice. 😂

[@mcflyav8]

Just received my bundle today! Love the newest wave. So So Good!

[@JustBSingProductions]

Oooh the elusive So So Good! Love to see it!

[@KirkRuhberg]

My bundle is getting delivered on Thursday! Can't wait to open it. Great video guy's as always!

[@JustBSingProductions]

Thank you! Glad to hear it. You’re going to love this wave!

[@Junebug2021]

Great video! I like that set a lot. Too bad I didn’t see the preorders until it was too late…

[@JustBSingProductions]

Thank you! Hoping they add more to the store for folks who missed the preorders.

[@phoenixdcfan5058]

I'm still very happy with me having the classic silver age Brainiac with his Skull Ship. Its still a great paring together for any DC Collection out there. Would not mind is a SuperFriends Lex Luthor at all. I think Todd would so totally give us that version of the character. And to build out with our Legion of Doom as well!

[@JustBSingProductions]

Can’t go wrong with the classic Brainiac at all! Yes, Lex is sorely needed!

[@user-xu3tr6bv5y]

I like the Gold Label Brainiac set but price and shipping cost from McFarlane were to much for me. Ordered a lot of this wave from EE, Justice Lord Supes, Super Friends Sinestro, Hal Jordan GL, Kilowag, Blue Beetle and silver Brainiac’s ship. Unfortunately the only thing I’ve received is Justice Lords Supes. They sent me an email saying Sinestro was cancelled but managed to get him. Recently they sent me an email saying Blue Beetle was cancelled. Checked my order status online and even though Blue Beetle was removed from my order, Sinestro was still listed as backordered 🤔. Brainiac’s ship is listed to be released in May, hopefully I get it because it seems to be available at other retailers. Think this was my first and last order from EE.

[@JustBSingProductions]

Sorry to hear of your issues. You are not alone with those, and we’ve experienced similar in past waves. I would keep your eyes out at Walmart and GameStop (if you’re in the States). I found everything in store before my order from McFarlane showed up, and people are still finding them currently. If you can snag them in store, then you can cancel your remaining backordered orders.

[@kevinbaxter885]

Hahaha the evil goatee! Makes me think of Abed on Community pasting a fake goatee on and literally calling himself evil Abed. 😂 Great review again, guys! Love Panic in the Sky too. My bundles finally shipped, so I should be joining you in my joy for this wave soon!

[@JustBSingProductions]

😂😂 have to get back into Community! It’s been awhile since I watched it. Enjoy those bundles, sir!

[@kevinbaxter885]

Got them today! You guys were spot on. So Good!

[@JustBSingProductions]

Awesome man! Glad you love them!

[@Edster73]

The problem I have with these exclusives is that I always buy two of everything... one to unbox and one to keep so the price gouging hurts a bit... I hope this is re-released...

[@JustBSingProductions]

Yeah, and the preorders sell out so fast! If you haven’t gotten onto the McFarlane Toys Store email list yet, definitely do so. Those emails will probably hit before our videos do.

[@byski1978]

All the Brainiacs are great, including the original Kenner!

[@JustBSingProductions]

Agreed!

[@supermansjs]

Agree…SO GOOD!

[@JustBSingProductions]

Yeah!!

[@mattleanio8534]

The original evil goattee was from the original Star Trek

[@JustBSingProductions]

Evil Spock!

[@brentgraham2481]

I passed on the skull 💀 ship

[@CringerKitty]

I had no idea that the gold label skull ship was even up for pre-order, so I missed my chance I guess.

[@JustBSingProductions]

Sorry to hear that! Hopefully they add more later on or release to stores in a later wave.

[@andrewnaeseth8490]

Knight rider had a goatee

[@JustBSingProductions]

Ha! Good call! Forgot about that one. Garth or something, right?

[@maximusprime3459]

Garth Knight.

[@mikeellis4474]

Collared cape does that mean , we might have a Martian manhunter on the horizon

[@JustBSingProductions]

One can hope! Not sure why Dracula crossed my mind instead of J’onn, but here we are lol

[@brentgraham2481]

I like the figure. I'm just disappointed with the ship. It's hovercraft. I hope mcfarlane makes another Brainiac ship bigger for classic Terminator Brainiac ❤ 🎉 like bug ship

[@JustBSingProductions]

That would be cool!

[@Milky_Way1986-cr7yl]

Yeah, I’m not as big a big fan of that one. It’s still nice, but I definitely prefer the classic style.

[@JustBSingProductions]

The classic first appearance Brainiac and ship is fantastic! Did you go looking for any yet?

[@Milky_Way1986-cr7yl]

Not yet! I probably will this week though.

[@JustBSingProductions]

Good luck! Let us know what you find!

[@Milky_Way1986-cr7yl]

@@JustBSingProductions will do!

[@thecapemaster2977]

I just got my box today!!!!

[@JustBSingProductions]

Nice! You making a new cape for this one?

[@FridayOneEye]

Man, mine still hasn't shipped.

[@JustBSingProductions]

I'm sure it will soon!

[@SidewaysBurnouts]

lame. bring back the 80s terminator skeleton with the clear brain like the 1979 alien toy.

[@JustBSingProductions]

That’s the one I was hoping we’d see, but not upset with the two we got. And knowing McFarlane, the exoskeleton version probably isn’t out of the question still.

[@hispanicatthedisco9730]

This looks so baddass.

[@JustBSingProductions]

It really is
