Twisted Two-Face

Fwoosh and Sideshow Freaks. Man-bat's packaging is insane. But Joker is a little underwhelming. Personal nitpick, since i know it's show-accurate, but man do i wish they sculpted a collar onto his shirt.

God, that trailer. Always loved Daredevil, even the Affleck version, but THAT is perfect. That's the exact reason i prefer Marvel's military and street heroes to the high-fantasy stuff. Never thought Detective Goren could pull off Wilson Fisk so good, but he nails it. So excited for this to finally come out.

Regarding the suit, it's accurate to Miller's reinterpretation. I'd love to get to the red before the end, but one of my favorite DD stories is Sale's "Yellow," so that should tell you about how much the suit is a priority for me.

Joker and Robin keep getting pushed back week to week. It was last week, then this week, now next week. I almost don't expect them until April. The in-package pics of Joker actually look really...off. Surprisingly so, in fact. Face seems all wrong on the final product.

Seriously, my luck with Legends has been unreal lately. Found Daredevil and Ultimate Jessica at TRU the other day and had coupons, Rewards, and my discount. Came to about $20 for both of them. Daredevil is the end-all-be-all Daredevil figure, and fortunately he doesn't have the floppy T-bar situation the Bucky Buck is known for. Really fantastic representation of the character. Jessica is also really neat although I wonder if the body is almost too teen for her. I know she's Peter's clone but she always seemed older than him in a way. LOVE the hair sculpt.

Just need to track down a 2099 and I'm done with this wave and can prepare myself for Hellcat!

Mandarin's ultimate weapon was sarcasm in a deleted scene?

Based on the small pic we have, it looks like Black Mask was in his suit vest, so i would assume he'll have some alternate looks. I'm hoping Ed gets that slick pinstripe jacket in addition to his labcoat. Gordon i assume is just his blue suit. Essen is the only one that leaves me scratching my head. Neat background character sure, but i don't know if i needed her so early.

Gotham figures were Jim, Selina and Oswald.

TTF, were they filmed by another press outlet? In the background, or did they REALLY film them?

They were really filmed. Like, close-ups on the figures and talking about them.

Has anyone mentioned that this is a thread speculating the future of speculation threads?

There's a better video showing off the Gotham Selects, but if Zach doesn't want them seen I won't post them.

That said, they look incredible. As much as i haven't warmed up to Robin Lord Taylor's Penguin, the likeness is dead-on.

We're getting Golden Girls Minimates because George Clooney was a guest once and he played Batman in the 90s. It all adds up.

GOLDEN GIRLS.

I've got a better one: Marvel published Doctor Who comics in the 80s. Character Building has cancelled Doctor Who. Doc Who mates, confirmed!

Not to open ANOTHER can of worms but we were but the were cancelled, I believe

Yea, this one still stings.

Ronan being packed four to a case is beautiful and I'm much more hopeful for finding him. Quicksilver on the other hand i expect to be a pain in the ass. I should check when my Rewards expire, i still have $10 from Christmas.

As of posting this, they're all back up on Amazon. Snagged Wanda and I am DONE. Easiest wave to complete in a while; hope Spider-man is just as easy, because Daredevil, Ult. Jessica, and 2099 need to be mine.

So what's the initial line-up? We've got a 2-pack for SDCC confirmed and a 4-pack on the way, as I understand it.

Gordon and Penguin seem to be safe bets and I'd be surprised in Bullock and Bruce didn't show up. Who's gonna make the retailers comfortable?

I'm thinking the SDCC set will be variants of characters already being offered in the 4-pack.

4-pack is Gordon, Nygma, Black Mask, and Chief Essen.

None one should be surprised by this new route for Logan, he did always like to rack up bodies.

Phantasm. PHANTASM. Pleasepleaseplease Andrea Beaumont alternate head.

As someone who doesn't like Firefly or Rocketeer, God damn if I don't need both of those. Funko knows what they're doing.

Found everyone but Wanda at Target the other night. Wanda's gonna be the pain the ass, i can already tell. This won't be like Black Widow, who got repacked in various cases afterwards.

I plan on building Odin, but i thought i'd try King Thor out first. Does anyone else have a hard time getting the cape to stay in? The little bastard falls out with a glance.

I was able to snag Hawkeye and Captain Marvel from Amazon, i'll wait for the rest to hit my TRU. Hawkeye is a longtime coming and God damn if this isn't a great figure. My only nitpick is the Winter Soldier arm. I love the techier look to it, but the forearm is noticeably thinner than the sleeveless one. Captain Marvel is FANTASTIC. Take notes, DST, this is the Carol we needed a year ago, and she needs two heads. Just a terrific figure, no complaints.

18 is wonderful and well worth the purchase. I really need to pick up the 17 that's gathering dust at my LCS.

I REALLY want to pick Broly up, but for the price tag of at least $70 i could just as easily buy Solidus from Play Arts Kai, an 11" figure...so that'll be the priority.

YES! Love Rachael Taylor; she was wonderful in 666 Park Avenue. Couldn't have hoped for better for Patsy; hope she makes the cross to SHIELD sometime.

Knowing HOW it ends and the actual series ending are two very different things. I wouldn't say it'll be over anytime soon at all. (Granted, it should have ended a while ago, but i digress)

Regarding the show, that's not ending anytime soon. The spin-off will run concurrent with the existing one, very likely during the midseason break like MArvel is doing with Agent Carter. Whoever told you that, Ninja Mate, is sorely mistaken.

Cowboy Bebop is all i'll ever need. The lack of Cowboy Bebop merchandise is unfathomable.

Saw the article. LOVE the idea. If there's one "soft reboot" that absolutely 100% should happen, it's this. Set it not long before Temple of Doom, play it like James Bond, Batman, or Hulk, and roll with it.

The only big risk is that Pratt can be a softy. Indy was no stone-cold killer but was more asshole than pal most of the time. Pratt could bring a lot of compassion to the role that wasn't there before, which was sort of a problem with Crystal Skull. Still, of all the actors approached or eyed for the role, Pratt has the best chops for it.

For the record, I don't remember anyone being okay with Stark being the one who creates Ultron and not Pym. In fact, all i remember is lots of hope that Pym would show up in a flashback being the original creator.

But changing what character built something, and the race of one character but not the race of his sister are fairly different things.

Quite frankly, the trailer tells us nothing anyway and barely looks like an F4 trailer, so I'm not sure where this tune changing comes from. It just doesn't "feel" like F4 from the little bit we've seen and the LOT we've heard.
