McFarlane DC Multiverse

[Ninjak]

Speaking of GameStop I got a shipping notice for my Black Canary figures. Says they should arrive Saturday. That was quick.

I was never able to track down a Platinum Pyg. Ended up settling for the regular release.

So that video is literally just someone regurgitating someone else's video that is based on what evidence in the first place?

Apparently the initial video was from a conversation Toy Gains had with McFarlane employees at one of the recent shows.

Of course it’s all hearsay, but we’re talking about wires missing from capes, so as far as speculation goes, it’s pretty harmless.

TBH, I’m backwards when it comes to the majority, because in my world:

Plastic or Rubber Capes > Soft Goods Capes with No Wires > Soft Goods Capes with Wires.

I was just about to go look that up. I had a feeling it might be Daily. One on my wife’s all-time favorite movies is Valley Girl and my kids grew up watching Rugrats, so we know her well. She did a lot of voice acting back in those days. I think she also had a single that charted back in 1986.

Love Valley Girl! She also did the theme song for Better Off Dead, which is another 80s favorite of mine.

Pee-Wee Herman didn’t quest for the Alamo basement just for you to neglect his hyphen.

How dare you, sir.

Better Off Dead may be the greatest John Cusack movie ever. And I love me some John Cusack.

It's interesting because last year EB was bought out and returned to the EB branding and has nothing to do with the American corporation.

But I was told that the new owner of EB, some guy out of Quebec, is tight with McFarlane and there is some sort of ownership / investment there. I wonder if it all just circles back to the same people anyway. Yay! Capitalism.

Based on Toy Gains having a shoulder brush with a MCF employee at Zolocon published 3 weeks back

"I want my two dollars!"

 

[RichardSimmonsRobot]

I knew that the owner of GameStop/EB Games had an ownership interest in McFarlane Toys, but I didn’t realize that it was a majority interest. Perhaps the identity of our true enema has been revealed. FREE TODD!!!

I dunno if I can picture Todd as someone else's corporate whipping boy. If so..."Leave Todd McFarlane Alone!"

Got my EE Platinum case today. And it’s all kinds of amazing.

Standard Vigilante 5/5. Excellent.
Freddie Marvel 5/5. Excellent.
PL Supergirl 4/5. Very good.
PL Osiris 5/5. Excellent.

Vigilante may well be my favorite Mcfigure so far.

However, the Platinum Vigilante is so good I may not open him up. Something that I’ve never done before. Maybe I can find another one to open.

 

[Xavion2025]

Man, that’s two AT rave reviews for the EE Platinum case!

 

[Atomic Knight]

Gives me more hope about both Black Canaries.
