Whatcha got on preorder? Not just McFarlane.

Preordered the Superman movie Super Powers and Multiverse figures. I'm probably going to cancel Multiverse and just keep Superman/Krypto. I'm very much looking forward to the movie, but I'm not sure I need the entire case in figure form. I reserve the right to change my mind after I see the movie.

Supergirl and Batman One Million are coming from Gamestop.

Connor Hawke, Knightmare Batman, the Batpod and Nightmaster are on the way from ToySnowman.

The Mezco Batman (1989) Five Points figures, McF Armored Green Lantern, McF Batman v Superman Alfred, Dynamic Action Heroes Penguin Commandoes, and Isekai Harley Quinn are on preorder from BBTS.

Mafex Superboy and the Krypto Funko Pop (I'm a sucker for Krypto merch) are preordered from Amazon.

Jazzinc Catwoman is on order from OneSixthKit. I'm really hoping this tariff insanity is resolved by the time this comes out so I'm not paying an insane markup.
 
May, May, May. Everything's shipping in May.

Until they're pushed back to June.

But I'm not seeing anything in stores either, so whatareyagonnado?
 
Preorder status check:

Kite-Man from Target.

GA Wonder Woman
RotS Superboy
NML Batman
Stephanie/Spoiler/Batgirl
Disco Nightwing
Monarch
Batwing II
Merlyn

All from MTS.

And it looks like the hunt is on for:

Steve Trevor
New 52 Superboy
Ferrin/John Darkstar

And maybe Sandman and Mr. Miracle as neither have been announced for a Target preorder.

What remains unsolicited (that I’m interested in) is:

Metron
Mr. Bones
Mirror Master

Still undecided on Purple Beast Boy and Classic Deathstroke.

Obsidian (another must have for me) seems to still be in the wind. Unconfirmed.
 
I basically pre-order anything and everything that I want. I've learned that I should never expect to see the good stuff after release. Anything I buy outside of pre-order is almost always something that is drastically reduced that I wasn't willing to buy otherwise. I buy the majority, but not all figures from all of Marvel Legends, DC Multiverse, Masterverse, Spawn, Mortal Kombat, Street Fighter, Scooby Doo, One Piece, My Hero Academia, Invincible and Ghostbusters. I do also buy a fair amount GI Joe Classified and TMNT stuff, but only at stiff discounts long after release and I'm not ever worried if I miss out on something from those.

Ahead of SDCC, my current pre-orders are probably as low volume as they've ever been, but I know that will change shortly after SDCC.

For DC Multiverse, I only currently have the following pre-ordered:

Monarch
No Man's Land Batman
Stephanie Brown
Batwing
Darkstars (3)
Merlyn

I missed the pre-order for Kite-Man so I've got to hope I can find him at release because he's one of my most wanted figures in quite some time. I still haven't found James Gordon, so I'll likely have to resort to ebay for him and the same will likely be true for Steve Trevor, which is also a big want.

The biggest ones for me right now are Marvel Legends (my primary line) where I have both Dragon Man and 2 X-Men '97 Sentinels due imminently along with all of the Marvel vs Capcom tribute line (except Psylocke / Thanos, which I missed - don't get me started on Target pre-orders right now), Red Guardian/Yelena and Crossbones / Madame Masque. I also have all of Annihilus, Hobgoblin and War Machine pre-ordered from Marvel Select - but I don't expect to ever see those figures at this point.

As I mentioned, I expect the pre-orders to explode post-SDCC but my Marvel purchases alone that are going to be hitting are going to be very expensive over the next couple of weeks. Hundreds of dollars over those next 2 weeks just for Marvel Legends alone.

Whew. Feel kinda lucky Multiverse is my only line. And it’s likely ending.

I set some parameters for myself early on in this line. Comics only. No army builders, no vehicles, very little GLC. And no civilians. Steve Trevor will be the first. Built in exceptions like Jack Knight notwithstanding. Looking forward to Wednesday and Friday next week.
 
Been leaning on our Canadian friends:

Red Platinum Steve Trevor and Platinum New 52 Superboy coming in from figurineforall.com and Sandman and Mr. Miracle coming from toysnowman.com.

And as I was typing this, my toysnowman.com order just shipped.
 
My current preorders:

- BTAS Jonah Hex wave (will sell the figures and keep Jonah to complete my BTAS collection - so really just one figure)
- Kite Man regular (ordered from Target when I ordered the BTAS stuff, but hope to find him and the variant in store)\
- Mezco 5 Points 89 wave 1 (figures only, not the Batmobile), will order Wave 2 when it become available
- Hot Toys Joker (Phoenix), Batman and Robin (1997 movie version)
- Super Powers Nightwing

Other than that, really only Batman Returns is on my radar, but I'm definitely in for the whole wave and the Duck. I'm also debating the Nacelle Sectaurs Wave 2...
 
Placed a pre-order for the Hot Toys Bank Robber Joker today as a little bday treat for myself. Definitely spending a bit more than I should, but hey, monthly payments on something that ain't out for a year or so ain't too bad.
 
Stephanie Batgirl & Peacemaker from McF
Superman from both InArt & Hot Toys
Superman from Figuarts

Still plenty I missed I need to track down (mostly Bat villains) but with the license moving to Mattel that means I can just do that at my own pace and not worry about keeping up with new releases.
