McFarlane DC Multiverse

I’ve got no dog in this fight. Although I think I would like a Question. I’ve got the original, but this one is pretty cool looking. I was afraid it might be Montoya/Question until last week.

You’ll notice Todd doesn’t do this bull💩 with Spawn or Spawn fans.

At some point he’ll need us comic book guys again. Some new license or other. Personally, I’m disinclined to participate.
 
Todd barely makes any Spawn figures anymore. What did he make, 3-5 total over the last year? And all updates to ones that had been done relatively recently anyway?
 
It’s not much Spawn anymore.

I wouldn’t be overly surprised if he pivots back to Spawn in 2027. Maybe some other Image IPs as well. Because now he has a huge hole in the center of his portfolio.
 
One thing I think Todd could do exceedingly well is the Gold Key characters that Kirkman has just licensed. They’re starting with Magnus, Solar, and Turok. If that does well then there are a small handful of other titles and characters that could be made. Like Samson, Dr. Spektor, and the Owl. This was a very small, very loose superhero universe from the 50s-80’s. Well within Todd’s skill set and pattern of interest. And if Kirkman can make lightning strike twice as he did with the Energon universe, these could be bangers.

I’ve always wanted a figure of Magnus and Turok.
 
I keep seeing the leak lists everywhere and if these were the releases for the first two or three years of a line I'd be all over it, but as the final year? I dunno, man.
 
Todd's making a pretty strong inroad with other licenses - the new actual action figures of sports stars, for one. I saw at least 8 different players from different sports the other day. Plus, new VG licenses. Just saw a fully stocked shelf of new Fallout and GOW figs.
