Batman Forever wave

I’m kinda disappointed by the Adam West, I’m not sure what I was expecting since it looks like a DC Multiverse figure of Adam West Batman should look but my brain is like “that’s it?!”

Maybe I’ll come around when I see pretty official studio pics from Big Todd or the fun photos people take when they get him in hand, but right now I think I’m good skipping him and letting my NECA Adam West (held together with so much hot glue and wishes at this point he’s so brittle) and Manga Batman represent the idea of the character to me.

Clock King looks hella fun though…

Ooooh, I definitely want Clock King and Agent Liberty. I absolutely want both versions of Clock King. I think that I have a very slight preference for the regular version of Agent Liberty over the Platinum but would likely be happy with whichever one I got.

Think it'll just be West Batman for me from that new batch, just to complete the Bat Galler. Clock King is fun, and definitely one I risk snagging on a whim if/when I ever see him in store. I'm still holding out hope for a BTAS version in that line, but I don't have a Clock King in the collection at all (not like there's been a ton of figures in general). It's just such a wacky look that I both love and hate. I like the look of Red Hood, but I'd only snag him on sale. Not a fan of the Collector's Edition and their price hikes, especially on a figure like Red Hood that could, and should, just be a regular release.

Really wish Todd would do that look for Wonder Woman in figure form.

Ragman 

This couldve been such a badass figure if they committed to sculpt all of those rags on him. 

Holy shit, Rag man and Clock King looks badass.

Could also be the best cape ever made. can be used for Spectre as well.

Ragman has been a dream figure ever since I read Batman Family #20 as a kid. I've been a sale-waiter for a while, but this one is a first day pre-order. Even the variant is pretty cool, as that's really the only other costume he's worn over the years. Let's see Ragman in Super Powers next, Todd!

Odd to label Dr. Tyme as Clock King, but I think that qualifies as the most obscure figure Todd has ever made. Fun to see.

Agent Liberty is incredible too, but he's not for me as I'm a Batman-only collector these days. I would've loved him in the 90s. I remember really liking his special as a kid. Love seeing first-ever figures in plastic no matter what, and Superman related characters are awesome. Gangbuster and Maxima are still sorely missing from the Superman Family...

I'm happy with my DC Direct Red Hood, so that's a pass for now. I could see myself picking up Adam West Bats, but I have the Neca, Mattel, McFarlane 6 inch, Hot Toys, and a 3.75 inch Funko figure, so it's not like I need him...

Really fun to see all this stuff. Love the current direction of the line overall. I went from a bat-completist in the first few waves (who wasn't thrilled with much) to really viewing this line as DC Direct. Just getting characters or versions of characters I don't have, and really enjoying myself a lot more.

So,  I get the disappointment in the lack of any sculpted rag details for Ragman... but that figure still is tempting me.   I'm definitely going to have to try and order it.

And while I don't have anywhere in my collection for it -  I honestly love both versions of the Clock King figure.   

I'll hand it to Todd -  his is finally hitting character selection that I wish I had on my 6 inch DC shelf.   I would love to have both Clock Kings (Dr. Tyme!), Agent Libery and Ragman in my DC display.   

CLOCK KING

I am definitely getting him. And Ragman. And with cloth capes. This might make up for Sgt. Rock's awfulness.

Yup, bring on the (relatively) obscure figures! In for a Ragman and Clock King. This line is very interesting to follow...

Hopefully we get the whole ShadowPact gang since they did Ragman. Detective Chimp would be killer

Hopefully I'll be able to get non-Platinum versions of these.

Platinums are pretty well done in this batch. Super obscure picks! I wouldn't mind that New 52/Rebirth Ragman.
