Saw this on IG. Looks like we’re getting a couple platinums from the Clock King wave. Not sure if they’re based on Kenner variants but I’m assuming so.

Has anyone gotten their figures in this wave yet - Is the standard Batman the same as the "Classic Batman" from the Jonah Hex wave

It looks like the cape is different (all black fabric vs plastic black & blue), but is that the only difference beside the accessories/BAF parts?

Everything we're seeing is supposedly from Asia at the moment. I think the Batman benefits from different facial expressions (woo hoo). As hard as I fought to get the Jonah Hex wave, having him finally in hand was anticlimactic as I only remember him in one episode. He certainly wasn't in my top 10-15 hopeful BAFs.
 
Clock King looks really nice. I've heard from a couple people that he's a bit looser and more wobbly than past BAFs. Still wish Todd would somehow release all the BAFs near the end of the line, either as single releases or a boxed set or something. Don't think I'll see them on my shelf any other way.
 
Here in the UK we got this wave plus the recent live action Superman figures and Gangbuster wave in stock about a week or 2 ago.
 
Cmdstore has the Clock King wave up, the price is reasonable considering the excess cost of international purchases nowadays. Sorry, I got the last Platinums, but the four regular figures are still available as of now.


Otherwise, per Toy Shiz, the street date for Target is Sunday, so given past experience, they may pop up online in the early morning hours Sunday ET. If they have an actual preorder planned, then maybe not, but one of the last two waves just popped up randomly with limited stock and the other wave had preorders canceled, so YMMV.

For me, Target can go suck it and I’ll pay the extra money to import. As much as I would like new characters in this line, I hope this is the end.

I went ahead through CMDStore, since I can't stay up to 1am to see if Target cancelled my order or I need to re-approve it half a dozen times. Last time both my orders from Jonah Hex's wave and the Bruce Wayne wave had to be sourced elsewhere at $50+ a figure, and even then at Target the figures were about $33 apiece after tax. So either way I'm looking at $130 at the cheapest, $180 at the most expensive, so when all was said and done CMDStore was $150.

Glad to be done with that. I didn't want the platinums anyway.

Great idea, and had the same experiences with Target (so say we all). Looks like CMDStore still has all the figures but Zatanna, and is sold out of the 4 pack. I assume the other 3 are going to be fairly easy to get, so I will join in on the pre-order cancellation game and hope I find them in store.
