McFarlane DC Multiverse

What about characters that have basically been announced, that we’ve seen renders of like Black Canary, Freddy Freeman, Vigilante, Black Condor, Larfleeze, Gangbuster and Batman 89 Joker?

Plus there are a ton of rumored upcoming figures that have been leaked from credible sources. Figures like Starman (Jack Knight), SHAZAM (Power of SHAZAM), Batman Hush 2, Damian Batman, FA Supergirl, Lobo, Aztec, Bronze Tiger, Eclipse, OMAC, Saturn Girl, Bloodwynd, Miss Martian, and several others.

I wonder if all of these are still coming out?
 
odds are strong we will still get most if not all of these... plus some sugergirl movie figures...
there is still NINE months of retail window in 2026

Agreed. In January alone, Zatanna, Elongated Man, Blackhawk, Professor Pyg, Cosmic Boy, Jay Garrick, Barry Allen, Hal Jordan, Jessica Cruz, Ice, Rocket Red, Wally West, and Authority Superman all dropped. I know the second wave of Ross blister card exclusives have also been hitting lately.

Someone correct me if I’m wrong, but I believe the leaks originate from factories overseas which would indicate that most if not all of those figures are at least in the early stages of production.

Along those same lines, it’s the Chinese New Year which might explain why things have been quiet as of late.

Also, as I mentioned in an earlier post, a lot has changed since the license went from Mattel to McFarlane. Brick and mortar shelf space probably isn’t that critical to McFarlane getting the last wave or two of figures out.

I think most of the leaks originate from international retailers rather than the factories. As quickly as McFarlane produces, I would be surprised if most of those leaks don't make it out unless retailers decide to bail early. Whether that covers the remainder of the year or not, I don't know.
 
I went out Saturday, beyond my usual limit, looking for some stuff. I have seen plenty of regular Elongated Man in my area and I finally found the platinum version as well as the platinum Cosmic Boy. I'm still looking for platinum Zatanna. If I find her, great, if I don't, it's okay, they're not that drastically different. I'll keep an eye out, but I don't have to hunt for it. I have the next preorders, so I don't need to get them. It has been slow lately with releases, I just hope I ton of figures don't drop at once.
 
I found The Joker, Smiling Chris Reeve and Bane re-release this weekend. Much to my surprise! I wish Joker still came with the pile of cash, but I never had a figure of him so I grabbed it. And I like his orange undercoat.

These aren't even up for preorder yet, huh? I missed we were even getting a smiling '78 Superman.

Also found the Spin Master multipack with Lex and Krypto on clearance for $13.19 - I can finally have a Krypto!

I've ordered from some of those retailers and so far they tend to be reliable. Seems like they get their info if not from the factories, then from the direct distributor. Some of them have factory info stickers on the package.

IIRC, all of those leaked names have already been listed for preorder by these retailers.
