No, I agree Freeze looks good. It's the others that really left me with a 'cheaper than we'd normally put up with' vibe

Disappointing that they didn't show anything new. :-(

On the plus side though, knees and elbows for Penquin, as well as an umbrella!
Full 'Multiverse' articulation for Catwoman, even looks to have bicep swivels, and a whip.
Full 'Multiverse' articulation for Supes, but no bicep swivel.

Batman still looks fantastic. No bicep swivel, but that's ok, I already have the parts set aside to fix all of the ones I am getting. :-)

The Deadshot in that pic has already started hitting. His hips are away to wide. Awkward proportions.

Since I had a busy weekend at work, I am just getting caught up on all the Toy Fair news.

These Mattel figures, are they the same size as the DC Multiverse ones? I have Bane and Mr. Freeze already, for reference.

Just the first 30 pictures, with the Multiverse (movie) Batman, unmasked Batman, Penguin, Catwoman, Zodd, and Supes.

The rest pictured, I believe, are 6" figures.

I saw the Deadshot earlier today in a Toys R Us and actually laughed a little. It's an atrocious figure, more reminiscent of an early-'90s Toy Biz X-Men figure than anything made in the last 15 years. DC's recent toy history is like the pre-2004 Red Sox of action figures. Let's hope they can turn the same corner someday; they've already got the obnoxious-fan part covered, so that's a start.

Where are they showing up, and where are the reports that they are showing up?

Online stores pushed the release date back to June (Amazon doesn't have them listed at all yet), and I have yet to even see packaged images, let alone in hand pictures. :confused:

I got masked and unmask Batman tonight at my local TRU. They are charging WAY too much, but I know I won't see the unmasked one again. They were 14.99 each. They had General Zod too from the old Superman movie.

Pictures?
Comparison shots with modern figures, MU, Joes, and such?

I checked my local TRU, and of course they had nothing.

You guys will pay $15 for these pieces of dogcrap but balk at $20 for the Acid Rain/Lost Planet/etc figures? You know Mattel will *never* make good figures if y'all keep enabling them, right?

I pre ordered mine from BBTS for 10 each and even then I thought it was to much.
I just hope I can use enough parts for a custom.

For me, buying the Keaton Batman is more of a thing because of it's Keaton Batman. No real attachment to the Acid Rain figures, so I haven't fully developed a want for them. If I were to have any of them in hand and were to like them, I might would start wanting them. Plus they're going to probably be 9.99 at Wal-Mart and Target. I just went ahead and paid the price for these 2 cause distributions sucks in this area. It's buy when you see it or possibly never see it again. Maskless version looks to be 1 per case too so it's a chance for sure I would never see it again.

I won't be opening the maskless one, but I'll get some shots of the other one. I'll be opening it in the next day or so. It's pretty neat
