MAFEX DC Figures

This blew my mind. We all have our blind spots, things we missed for unknown reasons. I had never heard of Boondock Saints until about 10 years ago. Still never seen it. You not knowing the cycle of Death/Reign/Return of Superman is pretty far up there on the "WHUUUUUU--" scale.

My crowd of people remembers the SNL skit before the comics...
 
I know there’s thousands of folks clamoring for more Snyderverse figures…:rolleyes:

But instead of that crap
Do this:

Death and return of Superman:
I want Gangbuster…(!)
I want Guardian…
I want Supergirl…
Ripped costume Superman
Hal Jordan GL with attachable armor constructs and sling

Those weird Cadmus dudes in green with the jet packs that have wings that have shock cannons on the ends…

DOOMSDAY…

(wait did I see a prototype for that one or was it a fever dream)

Knightfall:

Purple suited Catwoman

90’s Nightwing

Azrael

Azrael Batman Mk. 2 with the helmet visor
And the spiked cape

Spandex suit Riddler
 
Yeah, Doomsday's coming. Of the rest of that list, I reckon only these are possibilities:

Supergirl, battle damaged Superman, Azbats 2.0, purple Catwoman, with Azrael and a 90s Nightwing as very big IFs.

Hell will freeze over before you see a Gangbuster or Guardian. And given how 90s focused they are, if anything, the only GL they'll do is Kyle.
 
There are certain tiers of characters that I would never consider paying the premium price for, and Guardian and Gangbuster are safely within that category.

(LOL at Gangbuster. I recently reread the whole Death and Return of Superman storyline. Gangbuster moved in on Lois like a hungry wolf as soon as it was believed that Clark was dead. Then he gets all resentful when Lois isn't ready to go all-in on a new relationship. Fiance recently "died" and he didn't quite get why she didn't want to get serious. Learn to read a room, buddy. Anyway, that's the only Gangbuster exposure I have. Maybe his more redeeming qualities are showcased elsewhere.)

Purple Knightfall Catwoman, KF Nightwing, Azrael, Supergirl, Kyle......I'm all for those!

lol
I just like the costume honestly. The character I feel is interesting like a Guy Gardner is interesting.
I mean old school, ugly,bad haircut, douchebag jerk on a perc guy Gardner…not new chad “cool bro” guy.


All characters, like all people, aren’t always perfect examples of heroism…or even humanity.

That aside, I’d take a guy gardener as described above. In his orginal GL suit, and also in the jeans and leather jacket look and sinestro ring.

Kyle rayner

Parrallax

Booster Gold
Ted kord Blue beetle

classic return of Superman.
Bright primary colors .
correct symbol.
Long hair head. Classic head, heat vision head.

I bet they make Guardian or GB before they’d ever do BLOODWYND (!)

I've always been a Marvel zombie. I only follow the big DC characters, and only from an extremely high level. I feel pretty set on DC characters aside from a few great comic Wonder Woman figures from one of the import companies.

Agreed and I'm fine with that. It makes for more realistic story telling.
 
I'm also a Marvel zombie. My DC collection is basically complete at this point.

I need a new Wonder Woman, and I'd like to get Two-Face, Brainiac, and Darkseid. I'd have trouble passing on a Raven because of my love for the Teen Titans cartoon, but MAFEX will never make her.

I wouldn't be opposed to new Batman figures, either. Capullo, modern, whatever else they want to give us.
 
Also also a Marvel guy, but Mafex DC comic figures have my interest. I've waffled on how deep I want to go on any story or group of characters, but I'd buy up the main Justice League members in a heartbeat. If they would actually make them.

They can do Twilight Hal. He seems a bigger lock than Kyle given their focus.

I'll be shocked if we don't get Jim Balent Selina and AzBats 2.0.

But truly, we need Booster Gold with a car door accessory.
 
Just saw the damazing Superboy review. I have a mighty need to get the Reign roster complete.

Everyone always says that they "laughed out loud" while reading things on the internet, but sir - this truly hit the spot for me :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: It took me a sec to get it, and then my eyes about popped out of my head with an "oh yeeeeaaahhhhh" reaction and I lost it! Thank you :ROFLMAO:

AmiAmi notified me that mine had arrived, so I paid for it. This morning the importing rules changed again, right? So I don't know how that will or will not affect my order. I'm terribly ignorant on how a lot of this stuff works, I dont import over $800 so I've never really had to worry about it.
