If Todd's run ended tomorrow and not next year, what would you say is his best figure?

I think I have to say Cyborg Superman. I can't put this guy down. He comes with no accessories, but everything else is done so well. This is going to be Todd's figure of the year....and figure of the line!

What do you say?
 
Great idea for a thread, @yojoebro82! I want to do a Top 10 for these when the line is done.

For me right now, it's the Morgan Freeman Lucius Fox that came with the Tumbler. That's my pick for my favorite DC Multiverse figure in the line so far. I have and really like both versions of Lucius, but the Tumbler version feels more unique in the more "casual" attire. The black suit is a thing that's probably overdone in figures.

If we want to throw out civilian or movie figures and only talk comic figures then I really dug that Grifter than came out very early in the line. I've been disappointed that we haven't seen any other of the old WildCATS.

I actually recently picked up both of the Hank Henshaw versions of Cyborg Superman, but I personally still like the Zor-El Cyborg Supes that they did first better. His metallic bits are nowhere near as shiny as the new Hank, but it's just a more original figure. I've had several Hank Cyborg Supes figures over the years so this one didn't feel as special compared to a new never before done version. The Zor-El CS would probably make the back-end of my Top 10 right now if I were to do one.

My favorite figure of this year so far is the Connor Hawke Green Arrow.

Definitely one of my favorites as well!

My favorite figure is Jay Garrick. Blonde hair and all. I’m kinda glad they made him young. My only very minor quibble is that he’s huge. He scales well with Hush Batman.

My problem with pulling together a top ten is that I tend to look at a lot of this through the lens of my favorite characters, not what’s a great figure/sculpt. Ragman is awesome to have, but not exactly an impressive action figure. Lobo is a great interpretation of a character I despise. Hush Superman is a great sculpt but looks almost nothing like the original Jim Lee artwork. Starro is a very detailed piece with no dynamism whatsoever. Yet even with next to no articulation, I love Titano. And so on…

Ah, first world problems. I get the feeling I’m gonna love Steve Trevor. And hopefully the Blackhawk repaint before we’re done.

I picked up both Jays that they did and The Rival. The Rival figure was my favorite of the three. Again, it was nice just to get a different character as Jay had been done many times over by other companies.
 
Mine is Batman & Robin Poison Ivy. It doesn't look exactly like Uma, and the hair should be more red, but everything else is so fantastic and fills a 25-year-old hole in my collection. Most importantly, the diaper is completely disguised.

This will never leave my collection.
 
Without thinking too hard about it, I agree that the recent Cyborg Superman is a real standout in the line. Never found the red version (stupid Target) but I'm very happy to own the regular version.

I really, really like Kalibak. The head sculpt is tremendous. It makes me think of Mignola's art from Cosmic Odyssey.

I'm also a very big fan of the Hellbat armor Batman from way back in wave 1.

This one is high on my list as well. It's a soft likeness and for the price point it's perfectly acceptable.
 
This is a tough one. There are so many McFarlane figures that I love and are so well done like Wonder Woman (classic), Comedian Joker, Penguin, SHAZAM, Superman (silver-age), Bane, etc.

But if I had to pick just one, I'd have to go with Blue Hush Batman. First of all, it's Batman. Second, it's just a beautiful figure. I love the colors, the head-sculpt, and the cape. I personally think McFarlane nailed Batman with this one, and if he'd never made another Batman after that I would have been perfectly happy.

Mine is such a lame pick, but the one figure I can never put down is Wildcat. No weird range of motion hinderances, no ugly wrist or ankle joints, the butterfly joints don't float around in their sockets like a lot of the figures, no balance issues, the diaper thing isn't really happening on him, not warped from being too cleverly posed in the package... I mean he came with NOTHING, there's nothing special about him, but he's the most action figure-y figure in the entire line for me.

(I actually just got Jay Garrick yesterday and agree he's top tier even if I wish he had his graying temples. Actually, I like all the Flash variants I have. I think McF did speedsters quite well.)

I never got this one but he's on my list. With the way the head is designed, it would be easy to get a custom wired cape on him.
 
I got the Hush Batman and just couldn’t justify keeping him. He was so oversized at the time, he just stuck out. And Hush is pretty much my favorite Batman look. Midnight blue on gray. That’s my favorite.

Hopefully at some point, in our limited time, they can piece together this look again with a fabric cape.

Nothing lame about Wildcat at all. Somehow, whatever line I collect, Wildcat becomes a favorite. DCD, DCUC, or Multiverse. Love how Wildcat comes out.

As for Flash and related, it’s been one of my favorite aspects of this line. Speedsters are easy and they’re cool. More fun to me personally, than the oversaturated GLC in DCUC.

YMMV. I seem to have gone over the acronym limit in this post.
 
He has made some great DC figures. My favorite one though is odd, because it's kind of simplistic in the way of paint and sculpt compared to some of the figures he's done that are so impressive like Frankenstein, Mongul, Doomsday, etc.

But the 2023 DC Classic Comic Riddler. That is my favorite figure Todd has done in the DC line. It's perfect. The colors, the paint apps, the face sculpt. Everything. When I look at it, I'm happy and see exactly what I want to see.

I really feel that wat about Silver Age Digital Joker and Two Face, and Collector's Edition Penguin too. But Riddler wins just because I love everything about it.

It is beautiful in its simplicity and just stands out over the rest to me.
