I was lucky enough to get pre-orders in for Dr. Fate and Two-Face at BBTS at 9:04 this morning. Just happened to be awake thanks to the call of nature and decided to check. I never get to pre-order McFarlanes from BBTS cuz I'm not a morning person at all, so I always miss out and have to track them down elsewhere. This time I was doubly happy to be able to get them because they were "only" 27.99 instead of 29.99 like they are at Gamestop. It's quite rare for BBTS to be cheaper than anywhere else, especially these days, so that was nice.

Wish the figures came with any accessories to offset the general price increase though.
 
I went for the bundle on McTS when I realized they were up and sold out most places. SA Supes wasn't a big want, but it looks good enough and it seems McTS hasn't adjusted for inflation yet so with the code it all came out to $25 each.
 
I went for the bundle too. Still in-stock, amazingly. I had a feeling these would wind up in-stock when Todd pushed up the date.
On the other hand, nothing has shipped for me yet, and in-stock McF store stuff usually ships quickly.
 
I ordered the Dr. Fate, Superman & Two-Face bundle from MTS, with the discounts it comes out to a little less than the 3 figures combined without tax. I like the Silver Age versions, I'm not sure I want the Platinum Dr. Fate & Two-Face.

I stopped at a Target on my way to work today and was able to pick up Nightmaster. I don't know why they put spots on the figure.

I have to be somewhere on Friday during the start of the pre-order for the Super Friends figures. I have a feeling these might sell out.
 
Just picked up The Joker Infinite Frontier figure from BB on sale - is he holding his own eyeball? I didn't realize that from the promo shots and that's disgusting. I think I'm taking him back ASAP.
I was going to replace the Punchline/Joker two-pack version because I don't like that crazy headsculpt - but this is way worse.
 
I received my Dr. Fate, Superman & Two-Face from MTS today. They all look good.
 
Dr Fate, 2 Face and Supes are in the corner of my office. Waiting until wife goes to sleep to open. Look good in The box window.

Edit. Got them open. Really nice for the most part. Would a few spell casting Dr Fate hands really kill them to include? I found a good gangster looking gun for 2 Face. Nice additions all in all.

As to my other preorders, Final Batman and Batman 1M are stuck somewhere. Supposed to be delivered last Wednesday. I won the EQL and Damage and Starman showed up today. Both are great. Reuse be damned. I thought Grim Knight and Croc were supposed to ship today from GameStop. No notification. And my SA Digital bundle has apparently left Las Vegas to arrive on Saturday. I hope.
 
Did you get a shipping notice or did they just show up? Mine still say “awaiting fulfillment”.
They showed up. I ordered them the moment they went up for pre-order and the next day I got an email that they shipped. That was April 2 and they were received April 7.
 
After seeing the leaked Superman: Legacy figures, I'm feeling a little better about the Batman Returns figures. I, along with a lot of others, didn't know what that "Deluxe Theatrical Edition" meant- if it was a box set or what- but it seems like they're kind of a blend of the regular figures and collector's edition- extra accessories and a little minifig. Which would lead me to believe that the Penguin Commandos might be a pack-in with the regular figures. I'd be cool with that, but I'd also be down for a multipack of PCs too.

Just feels surreal that we're finally getting Returns figures at all (and Shreck too, no less!). I'm keeping everything crossed that Todd can get as close to a full lineup of movie figures as possible before he loses the license. 89 Joker, Begins Ra's, Nolan Gordon, Nolan Alfred are the biggest wants, but I'd also love a Nolan Talia, and I wouldn't turn down a Bob the Goon or B&R Bane.
 
I'd be bummed if the penguins came with the figures. I haven't bought much Mcfarlane, and I actually want the penguins.
