So glad the forums are back!!
Current PO’s:
Batman movie 6-pack
Riddler
Black Hush Batman
Just got:
Robin and Hush Superman
Looking forward to:
Knights of Steel Batman
Gordon Batman
Just received Superman Hush & Robin Tim Drake from McFarlane Toys Store on Monday.
Amazon says Batman 6-pack arriving (later now) on September 5th. Keaton + Batmobile also around that date.
Got to say, the most exciting thing I’ve heard about this line in a while is the rumored Captain Carrot figure. I wish it was more the classic funny animal-sized version, but I’ll happily settle for the modern version for now. Some day, my dream of a full Zoo Crew will be realized!
Also, the Anti-Momitor figure is looking good. I was never happy with the design Mattel used, so I’m happy to upgrade to the original COIE version.
Man, I've had a breakdown of everything announced since SDCC ready to post but now I'm on vacation for a few more days, so none of that will happen. But we've see some cool things and also Sinestro and Hawkman being the overpriced Collector crap for whatever reason.
Sinestro is probably my most anticipated out of everything that was announced. Really hoping for more Lanterns in general.
Dark Knights of Steel Batman does look pretty cool too. I'm not too familiar with any of the designs from that comic, but I love me a good historical Batman variant. Almost picked up caveman Bats a few weeks ago, but decided to wait for the time being. That said, if Todd starts announcing any of the other old Bat variants from back in the day- Pirate Batman, Cowboy Batman, etc., I may have to snag it.
The two movie Blue Beetle figures and the big Carapax figure are all fantastic! Great detailed armored sculpts and a lot of functional articulation. I am particularly impressed with the range of motion that Carapax has considering his bulky armor.
A Justice League Incarnate version of Captain Carrot might be the most bittersweet toy news since the beginning of toys. Despite that, I'll still probably get it.
Found my post so:
Big recap of Todd’s DC announcements:
Movie Batman 6 pack with Batsignal w/ interchangeable symbols.
Looks awesome, went on preorder a few days ago. Everyone has cloth capes which I hope is only for them to sit in the Batmobile comfortably, really don’t want this to be the future of this line.
Reveal of the Batman and Robin wave, I’m surprised Bane isn’t the BAF again with Freeze being a standalone figure. My only interest is in Robin for some possible Nightwing customizing, and maybe Ivy if she turns out nicely.
Classic Wonder Woman with recolored Rebirth Batman and Aquaman and some bullshit Starro NFT
Diana looks really good, buying her for sure.
Firestorm, Hawkman and Sinestro
Two of them look to be new sculpts, Sinestro is a retooled Kyle Rayner (based on how the boot sculpt looks), glad that they’ve resculpted his torso instead of just painting on the lines. Hope he gets a nice yellow effect.

Black Lightning, Vampire Hal (who looks very Jokerized tbh), Supergirl and Catman.
Cool! BL is on a new body I think (though the arms kinda look familiar), Hal is reuse, Supergirl rocks.

That plus we've seen some more pics of Hawkman and Sinestro at this point. Skipping the first one and getting Sinestro for sure. Also Knight Batman will be bought as well.
I know it's old habits but there's no need for img tags any more. Just paste the url and post.
Haha yeah just noticed that. It'll be that much easier and faster to post pics.
Eager to see Supergirl, looks like she's the last one to make the jump from render to plastic. During the blip, I wound up receiving Knightfall Batman. He's great! I love the more plain bodied McFarlane figures. I just wish they had more hands! I hate seeing trigger fingers on characters like Flash. I might need to double dip on Blue Beetle because of those hands. And after the movie, here's hoping that there's a comic Jaime Reyes version coming out soon.

we should've known to keep expectations low after that godawful superman, but sinestro being largely reuse of kyle and hawman reusing redeemer's wings are just unacceptable. 2023 has NOT been a good year for this line.
If anyone missed the sold out BBTS B&W Accent Edition Superman, I'm canceling my order, so it should pop up again.
