Yeah, we’re getting a powered down Fire one way or another. That cheap McMoFo ain’t sculpting a whole halter top unless he plans on using it again. Todd is like a customizer that looks through his fodder to decide what character he should make next.

@hawktalon7890 Месяц назад

At least with the hardcore customizers you get some character consistency. Like, if they've started the Justice League they'll usually finish it. McFarlane's just giving us random characters.

@LylesFigureFiles Месяц назад

Hopefully with a new hair sculpt!

@tomfin-wo5vc Месяц назад

Fire’s hair: “Lettuce entertain you!”

@LylesFigureFiles Месяц назад

McFarlane, making you the figure you want - in a way that you don't want it.

@lostonwallace1396 Месяц назад

Man, that Sgt Rock is a disaster! As a reader of Sgt Rock for decades, that is just an insult! Not really impressed with any of these figures. Sub-par work. :(

@LylesFigureFiles Месяц назад

Yeah it's an abnormal for 2024 off wave. Lots of questionable decisions all around.

@lostonwallace1396 Месяц назад

@@LylesFigureFiles The Sgt Rock figure bothers me the most because Rock rarely gets the action figure treatment, and we get this hot-mess! It's pretty a pretty pathetic showing from McFarlane. This wave just says, "we don't care about what we're doing" to me.

God forbid an Army Sgt have guns....

@floorboss Месяц назад

If McFarlane was smart- He would of made SGT Rock, Enemy Ace, Unknown Soldier & all them _Our Army at War_ & _Star Spangeld War Stories_ classic combat DC characters in scale w/ GI JOE CLASSIFIED & Action Force! > So fans & customers could use them interchangably. He would of sold waaaay more units. Make A Tank for them & Enemy Ace's plane. WOULD OF SOLD like pancakes to hungry lumberjacks. SMH.

Yeah, that one makes zero sense.

@LylesFigureFiles 12 дней назад

Yeah, he's gonna need a weapons kit ASAP!

@HENRYGAUL Месяц назад

I would wager to say that Todd is probably the final approval on all of his lines. I think that could be a mistake as it doesn't allow for any consistency. It's almost like each release is evaluated individually as a stand-alone figure. As opposed to making sure there is consistency on aesthetic, scale, and detail across the line. I think there needs to be some compartmentizaion across their lines over at Mcfarlane.

@LylesFigureFiles Месяц назад

The scale really needs to be the thing they focus on the most going forward. It's too bad when great looking figures are too tall or too short.

@ffiiggyy Месяц назад

If Fire had a few new parts and went with her jacket design, they could have possibly used the jacket parts for Black Canary and 90s Wonder Woman.

@LylesFigureFiles Месяц назад

Right. A 90s Wonder Woman would have so many collectors outraged LOL.

@Tebigong101 Месяц назад

This Batmobile shows us two things 1) the Hell Charger would have failed for any price point. if folks have problem with this price. 2) This what the Hell Charger should have cost without extras should have been and once you had the extras it's 100-25 after the flames and unmasked Robbie early bird. Then you add the three tiers at $25 each and you're at $200. I'll extend it to 225 if you want to really cover the cost of the flame effects.

@LylesFigureFiles Месяц назад

Yeah, that $80 seems solid to me. Hasbro did overestimate the cost of the Charger though as all those bells and whistles weren't necessary.

@andrewb4999 Месяц назад

Sargent Rock looking rough especially in the face sculpt, and not giving him a gun just seems petty at this point.

@LylesFigureFiles Месяц назад

Yeah, the lack of weapons for a WW2 soldier is just silly.

@5hogg23 Месяц назад

I never bought and of the McF DC figures because of the weird 7" sale. I thought I was going to pick up Sgt Rock because I thought there was chance I could squeeze him into my GI Joe shelf, but that figure looks terrible so I will continue not buying any McF figures.

@LylesFigureFiles Месяц назад

No their 7" scale won't work with a 6" line even if you fudged it.

@thejohnson5832 Месяц назад

I got up for work one morning and just happened to check BIG bad toy store and they had a Wonder Woman. I got her for 40$❤

@LylesFigureFiles Месяц назад

Man, that still seems expensive. Hopefully you dig her!

@VictorHugo-Al Месяц назад

The Fire figure re-uses the Knightfall Catwoman body, that's why she have the heels. Todd used this same buck for Supergirl and Starfire, and it sucks.

@LylesFigureFiles Месяц назад

Thank you! I couldn't place who was the base for Fire. Such an odd choice for her.

@ericitsme Месяц назад

DC still has the Toddfather not making any guns for any figures apparently. Sgt Rocks face is clearly round in the book and they gave him Afflecks chin. Yowza!

@LylesFigureFiles Месяц назад

Yep, Rock is just all around disappointing.

@carlgibson285 23 дня назад

I'm not sticking up for McFarane toys, but there is a reason why they reuse so many parts instead of sculpting new pieces. Apparently it costs around $100,000 every time they create a new sculpt, so I'm not surprised the company reuses so many parts. As for the no guns thing, that's totally down to Warner Bros. The reason why McFarlane gives almost all the figures a trigger finger hand whether the character should have one or not is his way of trolling Warner Bros for their ridiculous rules. If you do want a gun for Sgt Rock, there are always the McFarlane accessory packs. It's not a perfect solution and it sucks having to spend extra for the guns, but at least they are available if you really want them.

@LylesFigureFiles 23 дня назад

Yep. The issue is more the choice of reused parts rather than doing it.

@user-ew9fs3st8q Месяц назад

pre ordered everything except for that batmobile, its really cool but I only collect the 7 inch lines, seemed out of place for me.

@LylesFigureFiles Месяц назад

I bought fire for a custom. I'm not telling because I hope nobody else does it first 😎

@LylesFigureFiles Месяц назад

Looking forward to seeing what you do!

@missiletoad7015 Месяц назад

I think that Metallo is supposed to be sort of an amalgamation that recent storyline plus one of his Silver Age looks, and the concept for the unmade 80s Super Powers figure - using existing parts that McFarlane had. With SO many McFarlane figures, I think you should just rather wait to do it until you can do it right...

@LylesFigureFiles Месяц назад

I appreciate that he does do new molds, but the reuse for additional figures is pretty weird in too many cases.

@missiletoad7015 Месяц назад

@@LylesFigureFiles Yeah, I agree on both points.

I’ll pick up that super boy depending on how tall he is and I like the rookie but I’m not going to buy him unless there’s a sale. Maybe in a year or two Todd will release him by himself one of these days, for around that $40 price point.

@LylesFigureFiles Месяц назад

I think we can be pretty confident eventually Rookie will hit a sale. Just a matter of how long we'll have to wait.

@duagrentia Месяц назад

Manga Batman looks nice, I might pick this up. Sgt. Rock without a gun...just great. WB execs and their silly "no guns" slacktivism strikes again.

@55pepetube 5 дней назад

Mcfarlane always gives you 95% of what a classic figure. Example Superman always get an issue with hands or the sleeve cuffs. Wonder Woman the back of the boots and peg. Also the texture on them. Batman has head size issues. The Diaper needs to go. The Alicia Batgirl the back of her corset is not finished the body Corset should go to the crotch area. It stopped at the waist.

@LylesFigureFiles 3 дня назад

I do hate those sleeve cuffs! I still haven't seen Wonder Woman. Which Batman figure do you think has a properly scaled head?

@PM-oq8dg Месяц назад

About as good as every other figure I have seen from this line.

@LylesFigureFiles Месяц назад

LOL

@leftylion816 Месяц назад

I only ordered the BTAS Batmobile. Connor Kent is straight reuse of the Spawn/ Todd McFarlane figure. Connor needed a bit more bulk. Manga Batman needed a cloth cape along with all of the accessories that are included. The price point for these Collector Editions is not being validated by these offerings.

@LylesFigureFiles Месяц назад

Thanks! I didn't catch that reuse of the McFarlane figure! I don't think any of the CE figures really have a great value for the accessories we get.

@mantistoboggan7228 Месяц назад

McFarlane is just lazy. He did Fire like that because when he makes the non-translucent version its just gonna be the same. "A LITTLE bit disappointed?" WOW. Whatever that is, its not Sgt Rock. Sgt Rock didn't have a beard, he didn't wear knee pads, he didn't wear a vest (or have torn off sleeves if that's what that is supposed to be....this clown needs to know that WWII is not Vietnam). The boots are wrong, the absence of his signature ammo bands is wrong, not having his weapon is wrong. If Todd wasn't allowed to use guns then he shouldn't make the figure at all. The whole thing is just wrong. But if you people are fool enough to pay $30.00+ for this garbage, that's on you.

@LylesFigureFiles Месяц назад

Todd does tend to miss some vital details of character's costumes, but folks might just like the figure without needing to be fools.

My thing is he says female characters don't sell as if he isn't doing the exact opposite of what people have been asking for if a figure of XYZ characters comes out. I missed Supergirl and normally I'd be pissed, like I was when I thought I'd miss Starfire, but I don't really feel any strong type of way because the figure is trash and we deserve another on sturdy legs, a molded super S, and a soft plastic cap. As far as her face... I wasn't really impressed but it's McFarlane.
