McFarlane DC Multiverse

[Shinigami Customs]

Random question: which John Stewart figure is the best version of his modern comic costume? There's Rebirth and there's the Endless Winter BAF version, but both look so over-designed (per usual), and then I hate the texture on the Plastic Man BAF version.

Sounds like none of them are your cup of tea so you'll have to pass.

Really finding I like the end of this line figures more than I want to, y'know?

Oh, I know. I waited five long years for McFarlane to get the boot, and now that his run with the license is almost over, the number of DC Multiverse figures in my collection is multiplying like bunny rabbits.

While most of that is driven by character selection, there have also been some real gems when it comes to design and execution. I absolutely love Zatanna.

I’ve been tempted by the Authority Superman as well even though I had never even seem that version of Superman before the figure was released. It’s just a cool look that translates really well to figure form.

Best Buy seems to have Zatanna in stock.

Honestly, ever get one of those figures you just don't want to put on a shelf cos he's fun to mess with? That's the Authority Superman. Sleeper hit for me. Pure impulse buy but if every McFarlane figure was this fun to pose my grumpiness over the years would've been a lot lower.

I only bought Authority Superman because you all made him sound cool. And then I saw him and he does look cool. His face, in particular, got a lot of attention.

My Best Buy Zatanna arrived and she looked great so I opened her - are these new legs? They have a seam down the side so they couldn't be reused for too much, but these would have been SO MUCH better for Cheetah even with the seam. They also pose pretty well.

I'm shocked at Detective Chimp's articulation - cut shoulders and a square peg under his head. A ball socket in all of these places would have done so much. I can't even explain this except for laziness?

I honestly was amazed we even got that much considering all his animal companion pack-ins have been statues. It's hard not to imagine what another company would've done with Detective Chimp. Hell, I'd commit a minor crime for Classified-level articulation on Krypto.
