I love the 6-pack, may more of the film figures continue enter this scale.
Nice set up!
Are the cloth capes here to stay because I am not a fan.
@iami I imagine that depends on what you mean by 'here to stay.' It still very much seems like some characters/figures get them, and some don't. Like all the Batman figures in the six-pack that were released OUTSIDE the six-pack had plastic capes except for the previous Keaton meant to sit in the Batmobile, right?
Most Supermans (all of them?) are still being released with plastic capes. But Catman got a fabric one.
I think McFarlane, like Mattel, views the addition of softgoods as immediately making something more 'deluxe' - and therefore it's something reserved for just certain releases. I don't think he's going to STOP doing it, if that's what you're asking, but I also don't think it's going to become the new normal for ALL figures, either.
Pretty sure they are just experimenting with the cloth at the moment, with the Batmen being able to sit in the Batmobile being a perfect occasion to do so. Catman and Supergirl are making me worried for the future, though, as those capes look cheap AND I personally loved the way McF sculpted capes usually giving them so much personality.
Hopefully, like with other changes in the line, they'll be looking for customer feedback to see if they should stick.
Does anyone know if the Starro Wave will ever make it outside of the US? I see Owlman alone going for 100 bucks on eBay.

I'll be interested to see if the single release Clooney Batman comes with soft goods or plastic.
The McFarlane Store shipped the Batman/Omega pack and “The Dark Knight” interrogation dio today!
Man, I really wish Todd would release a TDK Joker Bundle with the Interrogation Room Joker and Bank Robber Joker. That I'd snatch in a heartbeat! Missed out on the IR diorama, so I'm just hoping he makes more.
Did anybody order the GitD Swamp Thing from Amazon? I had to approve a delay on my order back in August and it hasn't updated from "Order Received" since.

I did and mine is the same as you mentioned above.

Thanks! Glad I'm not the only one. McFarlane gave a review copy to someone, so they should be produced. Seems like getting them to Amazon is the issue.
I got my shipping notice today from McFarlane Toy Store for the Firestorm/Hawkman/Sinestro bundle. I'm looking forward to having those in hand - but it always takes well over a week for stuff to arrive once they're shipped from McFarlane for some reason. I get stuff from BBTS in one day but McFarlane ALWAYS takes 10-12 days and they charge more for shipping than anyplace else I do business with. I basically only buy discounted bundles from them for this reason (+ the 15% off coupon). They ship from North Las Vegas and I'm in Iowa. There's no reason that it should ever take that long. 4 days is the longest anything should take within the continental US even it's going from one coast to the other.
I'm very happy about the bundle price of $65 (after the 15% coupon) for figures that are expected to retail for $90 - but I also had to pay $13.29 for shipping which more than offset the coupon.
Has anyone else had trouble with the left arm of the Bale Batman sticking at the Bicep swivel? My baf wave one the arm snapped off and the 6 pack one feels much the same. Gutted as the baf wave one is now mega expensive.

Dammit.
In for all Super Powers, Animal Man, Steel, and Bizarro/Batzarro.
I'm going to need to SEE this "Classic Superman". If it's a retool of Knightfall Batman, I'm probably in, dammit.
I don't think I've ever bought as many versions of a character who are all essentially the same look as I have Supermen with this line.
