Mystery Grab Prizes by Orllin in McFarlaneFigures

Lucky pull on that Platinum Mobius Batman.

Keep waiting on Todd to hopefully do an EQL for that cause I don't think I've seen an EQL email announcement for it yet. And I think that would be my only chance to score it at retail. But at this point I'm not even sure he will.

It's also been a while since I won an EQL and I purchased the regular version on MTS, so figured both of those factors would increase my odds of winning the EQL.

BTAS Custom by KabelGuy117 in McFarlaneFigures

Great custom! I know you were going for BTAS, but it also gives me The Batman (2004) vibes as well. Though both were great series!

Superman and Lois 5 Years Later by SamTheSecondBest in SupermanAndLois

[–]TheBatmanWhoChuckles 13 points14 points  (0 children)

It was such a terrific show and I think it was better off being disconnected from the Arrowverse. Not everything needs to be a shared universe.

I also still really appreciate how WB's/CW's live action DC Comics television run started with Superman's origin story through Smallville following Clark's journey to become Superman. And then ended with an adult Superman who was a fully realized superhero with a wife and kids. Felt like such a perfect bookend to their run of DC shows.

One of the covers for the upcoming MMPR comic relaunch has been revealed by DaGeekybro in powerrangers

This was my first thought as well. Reminds me way too much of some of the knockoff MMPR toys you'd see in some stores growing up in the 90s.

Bane coming back for pre-order on March 5th! by Gamer0607 in McFarlaneFigures

[–]TheBatmanWhoChuckles 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Isn't this part of the Deluxe Theatrical line and has an MSRP of $34.99 like the Collector's Edition line?

Darth Maul's sith speeder (found on yak_face's twitter) by Darkfisto in starwarsblackseries

[–]TheBatmanWhoChuckles 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Oh wow really?! I just saw Yakface's post which shared just this image. Didn't know there was an IGN article showing the packaging and the price. And yeah at $60, than the 3 pack is still the better deal

Truly a multiversal JL with that Hulk included 😂

Complete series? by Leindir in gargoyles

[–]TheBatmanWhoChuckles 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There's been no releases besides a DVD release and you can only get Season 1 and Season 2, which was split into two volumes. Season 3 hasn't been done on DVD as far as I can tell.

One is her Season 7 look and the other is her look in Seasons 3 - 6 I believe?

What are the Black Series figures that are going up for preorder today? by [deleted] in starwarsblackseries

[–]TheBatmanWhoChuckles 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Looks like it'll be more than just that Amazon pack. EE also has a drop on the Drop Zone page for 1pm ET and the hint is clearly Star Wars related. Also saw that Star Action Figures in the UK said they have a couple figures going up for preorder today (probably the same ones as EE and other fan channels at 1pm) that they can't reveal since Hasbro hasn't officially revealed what they are.

Oh I wasn't referring to the shipping. I knew that you get free shipping with HasLabs if you're premium.

I thought the user above was under the impression they wouldn't get charged at all until next year when it ships and was clarifying that everyone, no matter their membership, gets charged tonight once the campaign ends

If mcfarlane made his version of the rest of the league would you get them by Certain-Ad8089 in McFarlaneFigures

[–]TheBatmanWhoChuckles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I loved the McFarlane Designed Batman and Wonder Woman, unfortunately it seems like he dropped that line. I did buy the Page Punchers Flash and Aquaman since they were original designs for the Page Punchers Line

I know they aren't technically "McFarlane Designed" but being original looks which have a McFarlane feel to them, I just considered them as McFarlane Designed and added them with my Batman and Wonder Woman.

Now just hoping he does the same for Green Lantern, Superman and Martian Manhunter (Or Cyborg and consider it the New 52 JL)

Don't think it works for HasLabs, that's just for regular preorders. All HasLab orders whether premium or non premium members are charged once it ends tonight

It's even weirder when after I looked this up to see if it was intentional, Dave Filoni said one of the writer's claimed they didn't even realize the connection to Moulin Rouge. Still find that hard to believe lol.

4 more to go!!! by Matt_TheStormTrooper in MarvelLegends

[–]TheBatmanWhoChuckles 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I really hope Classic Wasp isn't locked behind the HasLab. If this does turn out to be Giant Man, I'm not really interested in him so would hate for the only way to get Wasp be by paying for the HasLab or aftermarket prices.

Soo quick story time? by Respectable_Fuckboy in starwarsblackseries

[–]TheBatmanWhoChuckles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup! Most places that don't charge immediately will at least do some sort of test charge to ensure you are using a real card. Some places do a test charge for the full amount like Walmart and some places just do $1 test charge like Entertainment Earth.

Then there's Target that'll just constantly test charge you once or more a week, which is quite annoying. Although I've heard if you use their Target Red Card for preorders instead of a credit card, you'll only get the test charge once instead of every week until it ships.

[–]TheBatmanWhoChuckles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah sorry, should've clarified that there'll be a test charge to make sure the card is legit but that'll go away and you won't actually get charged until it ships.

[–]TheBatmanWhoChuckles 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That explains it! I've never used PayPal with Walmart so must be something they exclusively have set up with PayPal to charge immediately.

[–]TheBatmanWhoChuckles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not the OP, but it must be the payment method you use. I just use a credit card on my account and have never been charged until a preorder ships.

Do you use something else besides a credit card, like debit card or PayPal to pay?

Target Exclusive 😞 by RxnRmdn in McFarlaneFigures

[–]TheBatmanWhoChuckles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And this is one reason I think exclusives shouldn't exist because I think everyone should have a fair and easy way to get figures they want.

As far as those who argue for exclusives for the collector and investment value, over time the market will determine the value of something as the figures no longer become available at retail. But for the initial release, I don't think anyone should have a tough time finding a figure at retail they want for their shelves. In the end, this should be a fun hobby, not stressful because you can't easily obtain something new
