Great looking figure. I'm ambivalent at best about the Snyderverse, but that's just a good Batman, period, IMO.
Not sure about "We're all". I'm not even from the US. Thanks got I don't have to choose between two lunatics...Mafex "Arcade Gannon" from "MAGA 2" for this month.
Wait for the Robin figure continues...
No thanks. We're all voting against MAGA 2 next month.
Also...where the hell is my comic Jim Lee Wonder Woman, Medicom?
Release date for Snyder Batman is tomorrow.
I just bought Knightfall Batman from ebay. Made an offer for $90 shipped and it was accepted. I'm taking a bit of a chance because the wire is pulled out of his cape, I'm gambling that it is fixable. Besides that I'm pretty excited to get it. (I know this one is a prime candidate for a rerelease, but between now and actually having it in hand is probably a few years off).
I know this won’t be too popular, but I would definitely take a 90’s Kyle Rayner Green lantern with some cool constructs.
They could definitely retool it into John Stewart and sell even more
Parallax!!
90’s Wally west flash please?
With the cool mafex reflective paint but in gloss red? 🤤
Garcia-Lopez or Pérez style
Wonder Woman please?
some flexy lassos and few nice head portraits…
Pretty smile, stoic, battle rage
maybe a sword and shield?
Garcia-Lopez Superman has to be the most glaring omission from mafex.
in bright, saturated colors, like cyborg Superman.
id buy three off of general principle.
same selection of portraits as Wonder Woman
pretty, stoic, pissy
maybe some different types of kryptonite?
bottle city of kandor?
Breakable chains?
damaged lex Luther or brainiac piece?

They have been just doing general '60s/'70s versions of Marvel characters like Captain America, Iron Man, Thor, Daredevil, and Spider-Man that aren't tied to one particular artist (maybe outside of slight nods to Kirby). So Mafex doesn't have to only do story-based comic figures like they've been doing with DC (Hush, TDKR, Death/Return of Superman, Knightfall).
Actually, now that I think about it, most of their Marvel ones aren't particularly story based. The X-Men line is just general early '90s X-Men looks, and the Spider-Man stuff is also basically just early to mid-'90s looks.

I don't know what you mean by "not too popular". Mafex Kyle and Wally are the two figures I could retire from DC figure collecting on.
you’re 100 percent correct, and I think that’s what I like most about MAFEX in general…
They’re just an iconic,classic, non specific render of the character…
I guess what I meant by “Garcia-Lopez style”
was according to the style guide he created for DC back in the before times…
with those exact colors etc.
That style of superman and Wonder Woman is classic and enduring. Furthermore many iconic artists later based their rendition of Superman etc. on that style guide.
As was the -style- at the time…
im pretty sure that guy is still on underoos to this day…

It's worth noting that DC is leaning into that classic Garcia-Lopez '80s house style and actually releasing a high-end book reprinting their 1982 style guide: https://standardsmanual.com/products/1982-dc-comics-style-guide
The images in this are the ones that were all over merchandise in the Super Powers era.
Upon closer inspection
I definitely see some Kelly jones influence on that alt head for
knight crusader Batman!
not a one for one, but certainly influenced.
