I like Platinum edition overpriced Rock more than I do regular edition overpriced Rock.
I pre ordered Bat Manga from BBTS. Needed a pouch belt and a 50s Batman head for customs and got them both. Still hungover from Batman Forever and the Tumbler so nothing else interests me.
I find it weird that someone at McFarlane was enough of a Superboy or Titans fan to include that alternate evil/bald head sculpt, but they re-used a body that is skinnier than Tim Drake. I want to like the figure but the meh head sculpt and skinny frame makes him a pass. Sucks because I grew up on those books.
Same with Sergeant Rock, stinks he’s a version that never existed anywhere in a book but there’s another win for my wallet.
Although I couldn’t care less about most of the figures, this is a proper use of variant. Unique specialty figures instead of core characters. Superboy especially. Can’t see an alternate version with the L scratched into his chest selling on full release.
Preordered the animated Batmobile. Even though I don't have an Animated Batman yet.
Also preordered the Manga Batman. I actually like the Platinum more than the standard. Hope I'm able to get that one.
The Platinum Sgt. Rock is kinda cool. Not my cup of tea, but I get it.
If I end up with the Pixar parade Rock I will be most upset-
Wow if this isn't the wave of pointing fingers.
I dig the variants, all of them seem fun. I'd actually be quite happy if I got the green Sarge.
I always wanted that version of Superboy but the skinny body they chose for him is laughingly bad.
Isn't that the Todd Mcfarlane body from that 2 pack?
I hope I get regular versions of Rock and Superboy, but that's a legit fun alternate for Rock.
I'm also in for Fire, Metallo and Rookie/Bloom.
Nothing I want from today's new reveals, but Darkseid is back up on Target.com so I went ahead and preordered him. Not that that is any sort of guarantee that I get it. Chances of me missing the weekly "approve delay" Friday emails are high.
I pre-ordered Bloom/Rookie, Fire, Metallo and Rock. I don't like the manga Batman or that Conner and I think all of the Platinums this time are pretty bad, personally.
As much crap as McFarlane deservedly gets the classic Penguin is a really cool figure.
Cyborg Superman & Robin also both available for preorder at Target.

Isn't that the Todd Mcfarlane body from that 2 pack?
Yes it is. Should have at least used the Booster Gold body.
A couple weeks ago I got Riddler from amazon. Wanted the regular, got the platinum.
Today I got JLA John Stewart from amazon. Wanted the regular, got the platinum.
Aaaarrrggghhh!
Only purchased Fire (not Promethean) from Target this morning. No clue about the character other than that she's Brazilian and apparently has the same last name as Sunspot (weird) but she's translucent and green and looked cool. Wonder if she glows in the dark, because if not Todd will certainly see to that next round.
Costa isn't as proeminent,but a lot of Brazilians have.Souza,Silva would be the most common
