It’s Pieter on the card, not Charles.

Concur on Mid-Nite. He’s pretty good. Hourman was disappointing. No redo in sight. In my opinion, Wildcat is fine. In fact I like him quite a bit. The Mid-Nite Platinum does piss me off. Minimal effort on Pieter Cross. Still gonna need one although I don’t see buying him above retail. Gonna...

I keep a note on my phone of upcoming preorder dates. Dr. Mid-Nite goes up tomorrow at noon eastern time. Mr. Miracle and Zatanna have no official release date as yet, although MM is supposed to go up in October. I was impatient and ordered him and Sandman from Canada. Steve Trevor is out...

I don’t like superhero movies. Never have. I turned the corner (a bit) with the first Spider-Man movie. It wasn’t until Wonder Woman 1 that I actually enjoyed one. Followed by Aquaman 1 and Shazam 1. Both Suicide Squad movies were marginal (to me). I’m a comic guy. Special effects didn’t catch...

There’s been a longstanding rumor about a Nicholson Joker coming from Todd eventually. That was prior to him losing the license. Makes little difference to me personally, but I’d still like to see it happen for the fans who want it. What’s puzzled me about it is why haven’t one of the higher end...

And not for nothing, I believe Jack Knight is going to be an expensive pain in the @$$ if I miss the Canadian preorder. Or if the Canadian stores are still unable to accept American preorders.

I certainly hope so. But my impression is that DT is a little bigger with more articulation plus an extra head. And in the immortal words of “Toy Guru”, “may not cost out”. A $60.00 Elite figure would’ve covered his cost. A $35.00 Collector Edition figure may not. It’ll be an enormous...

FWIW, the balance of the current reveals is: Jack Knight/Starman Zatanna/Detective Chimp Static Shock Jack is a retail only Red Platinum. Canadian stores are looking good for him. Preorder dates for the others are unknown. Static is supposed to be a MTS Gold Label exclusive. Zatanna is now...

I also expect the wheels to come off over the next several months in terms of budget. But in all likelihood, my days of collecting figures will be over when Todd is done. Trouble is, I don’t wanna be done. But McFarlane/DC in the 7” scale is all I buy. Even then, I’m not remotely a completist...

Let me just say by way of observation that this is the highest concentration of Bat related figures I can recall going up for preorder in the space of 72 hours. Thirteenth figures total, a dozen of which are Bat connected. Kinda overkill ain’t it? By the same token, reviewing the rest of the...

Gonna be an expensive week for you Bay guys. While I’m not buying the movie stuff, gotta say Batman and Catwoman are both pretty magnificent. What I will be buying is: Dr. Mid-Nite. Must have, non-negotiable. If the Platinum is what I suspect/hope, that’s also a must have. Black Mask and...

McFarlane marketing strikes again. First theatrical figure (Penguin) dropped at midnight. Preorder date of 9/19/25.

Sounds like we might see all that stuff on Thursday afternoon on Todd TV.

Third item for the 18th is Mortal Kombat. Whew!

Wow. Failsafe is absolutely incredible. Thursday is shaping up to be an expensive day. One more item to be revealed for the 18th. Process of elimination says Atom Smasher v Spectre. FML and credit card if it is.

Demon Slayer figures were today’s preorder. Next up are the next Collector’s Edition figures. Dr. Mid-Nite and Darkseid Wars Batman with Möbius Chair on Wednesday.

I dunno. Bones and Obsidian went up for preorder with a ship date of October. Got mine before the end of August.

Doubtful. DC stuff usually gets announced at least a few days ahead of time. Besides, Zatanna is now supposedly in the next Collectors Edition wave along with Blackhawk, Elongated Man, Prof. Pyg, and Cosmic Boy.

That would be my guess. I’m thinking Todd shows upwards of 25 new DC 7” scale figures at NYCC. Gotta clear the deck before that happens.

Upcoming McFarlane preorders: 9/12/25 Unknown. There’s also something being announced about Target’s Fall Geek Out. 9/17/25 Collector’s Edition Dr. Mid-Nite and Darkseid Wars Batman. Platinums unknown. 9/18/25 Six figure Batman wave. Hush Riddler Scarecrow Black Mask in Batman costume...

The next episode of the McFarlane Toys YouTube show is 9/18/25 at 3:00 P.M.

Mirror Master 2 and classic Deathstroke showed up today and both are great. Deathstroke is really good.

NYCC 2025 McFarlane Toys panel is Friday 10/10/25 at 4:00 P.M. A month from today. Probably the last big event of the toy year.

Looking at the Entertainment Earth Drop Zone, Todd has a preorder date for 9/12/25. Item unknown. Probably not DC related as that stuff usually gets announced several days ahead of time. 9/17/25 is Dr. Midnight and Möbius Chair Batman. 9/18/25 is what I’m curious about. We already know that...

Bobo=Detective Chimp. Just didn’t feel like typing it.
