@chooch555 he's blue instead of black. The unmasked head is new, and the initial release only came with the more standard Deathstroke sword, this one has a katana and staff.
Gratzi. That's probably enough to put me over the edge if I see it in person, but maybe not enough to pre-order. I do want that Robin though so I may just accept my weakness add everything to cart.
@chooch555 actually, yeah I’d be up for that.
Big thanks to @buttmunch! I now have Platinum John Stewart instead of 2 regulars. He is a man of refined taste and should be afforded accolades.
For the more Deathstroke afficionados, is this upcoming Page Puncher version more of a standardized definitive version one could use for a one-and-done Deathstroke for their Batman rogues gallery? I'm not a huge Deathstroke fan but figured I should get at least one for the lineup of Batman villains I'm putting together. I'm still holding off on a more definitive Joker / Riddler, etc. So far I've got my Clayface/Manbat/Mr. Freeze that I'm happy with.
Hopefully they stick that Hugo Strange head on a stubbier labcoat draped body.
@jtmarsh I think that really depends on your personal suit tastes. Many still consider the original Perez look the definitive outfit. The Arkham games provided a great update although the figure is that is lacking. This is a decent modern version for sure though.
@tmntfanatic Yeah, the local Walmart by me has the Legos locked up as well. I don't collect Lego but are people really stealing them to that extent that they're locked up?
My store hasn't put them in cases yet, but a LOT of the smaller sets of licensed properties get ripped open and have the minifigs removed with the left being left on the shelf. All the bigger sets are wrapped with the security wraps.
Finally found the case pack! Approached the DC aisle & immediately saw Cyborg Superman on 4 stack on the rack. Screw you McF EQL scam with the mandatory $8 shipping. Was wondering where Manhunters & Robin was hiding. Looked around several corners, they were both on a go-back cart. Strange store where they only put 4 out on a single rack.
So is this Adam West Batman supposed to be based on the 66 Batman show or the comics/return of the caped crusaders movies? I know it's labeled as "Classic TV Series Batman" but the details on the figure look slightly cartoony. Not to mention the costume lacks that purplish hue that the batsuit has in the television show.
Did anyone figure out a good fabric to use to give Uma Ivy a cape?
That should have been the Deathstroke we got before, but not sure I’ll jump to replace my other one. The original is a solid figure and I’m growing tired of selling/trading. Unmasked head is nice though. And still really stoked for Damian.
After having them in hand for a bit, I really wish Adam West and Grayson Bats used the same gray. I love the Grayson headsculpt but the broad shoulders are bugging me. The slightly shorter/skinnier West figure reminds me a lot of Quitely’s art. The scale probably works with Damian either way, but may need to attempt a kitbash soon…
Walmart finally allowed me to purchase the Lucious Fox that they've had online for a few days.
Has anyone gotten their hands on Longbow Hunters Green Arrow, Joker as Red Hood and the Our Worlds at War Superman yet? I keep waiting for my orders to process but they haven't moved at all. And Atom was delivered ages ago
I stocked a case of the GA, Supes and Atom at Walmart last week (that's the case packout it seems). I grabbed Atom but left the other two, as GA looks out of place with the comic style figures using the Princess Bride figure.
Amazon delivered my Longbow Hunters Green Arrow last week.
@stoopid_sandwich I found GA in a Walmart last week. I've seen OWaW Superman at Gamestop, though I didn't pick him up. Haven't seen Red Hood Joker anywhere so far.
I found Atom, Green Arrow and Cyborg Superman all together at Gamestop what feels like several weeks ago now. I had them all pre-ordered elsewhere, but couldn't resist picking them up when I found them in the wild. I'm not sure that I personally would have paid any attention to the Red Hood Joker or OWaW Superman even if I saw them, but I don't believe that I have.
I know that my Walmart had a bunch of stuff show up last week and I bought Hugo and a Bullseye Batman there, but there was quite a bit of other new stuff that I passed on, including several Platinums. Target had new stuff last week too, but I only picked up Sportsmaster and left the rest. I keep hoping to find another Manhunter, but that seems unlikely at this point.
