About this deal

For those looking for a holiday gift," said moderator Tetrault of a '66 Batman lunchbox with Batman, Robin, Penguin and Joker figures, met with excitement by McFarlane as he discussed his days of owning a Batman lunchbox when he was younger. Also met with excitement were figures inspired by The Dark Knight trilogy -- Scarecrow, Batman, Joker and Two-Face. Collecting all four allows for a build-a-figure: Tom Hardy's Bane.

In his free time, Shane loves going for runs and playing with his 16-year-old beagle Butterscotch. Butters for short, she has been the greatest love of his and inspires him everyday, both creatively and emtionally. On top of that, he's now a huge collector. He loves Funko Pop, McFarlane Toys, and Neca's huge line of horror figures. In the last two years he has been going to a lot of conversations to buy an unhealthy amount of figures. This has also allowed him to meet some of his favorite filmmakers/actors like Mike Flanagan, Matthew Lillard, John Carpenter, Grace Caroline Curry, Steve Burns and Kathryn Newton. The figure includes 1 of 4 pieces that when combined with the rest of The Dark Knight Trilogy Build-a line will assemble Bane. The incredibly detailed DC Build-A The Dark Knight Trilogy Batman 7-Inch Scale Action Figure is designed with up to 22 points of articulation for a full range of posing and play. The figure includes 1 of 4 pieces that when combined with the rest of The Dark Knight Trilogy Build-A line (sold separately) will assemble Bane. As a build-a-figure, Beast Boy’s one up on Bane, whose mid torso area is super-soft, rubbery plastic over a ball jointed post, almost like a scarecrow. This can create some awkwardness…A prominent and well-educated District Attorney, Harvey Dent™ fought valiantly to uphold the law and make the city a better place. In any other city, it would have worked. Not in Gotham™— a place where greed and corruption stretch from the depths of Crime Alley™ to the shimmering heights of the mayor’s office. Dent’s spiral into Gotham’s madness came swiftly after a criminal threw acid into his face, leaving half of it horribly scarred. Seeking refuge in the underbelly of Gotham, the name Harvey Dent and all the good it stood for was lost… and Two-Face™ rose from the darkness. Up next were McFarlane Toys' Super Powers line featuring retro-looking figures like Batman, Superman and Darkseid, as well as a plane for Superman with extendable, boxing-glove-like arms and the Batwing for the Caped Crusader to be placed into. "That thing is so goofy that it's awesome," McFarlane said of Superman's plane, noting how it features a cell for villains to be placed into. Did they do the same for Cillian Murphy’s Scarecrow? It’s much harder to say. Up close, the eyes do seem to have it, a touch. Legally, though, I doubt this is considered an actor likeness. Let’s Face It… The next fan asked about bringing super groups to McFarlane Toys, mentioning the evil Batmen from Dark Knights: Metal, the Legion of Super-Heroes and other teams.

Beast Boy doesn’t sport the usual disc-and-pin elbows of larger McFarlanes, but his elbow joints have a wider range than they seem to, with single hinges that can still allow the arms to fold way in. For a chest-beating pose, for example. The double ball joints in his torso allow for some great character-based posing, as he can shrug one shoulder up and one down, or adopt more dynamic action stances. Bane and Gain Attending fans sat down in the panel to be greeted by McFarlane, finding exclusive collectibles inspired by DC's 2011 storyline Flashpoint waiting for each of them in their seats. As a child, Bruce Wayne™ watched as his parents were brutally killed in Gotham City’s Crime Alley™. Traumatized by their deaths, he devoted his life to becoming the world’s greatest weapon against crime—the Batman! He’s a master detective and an expert martial artist, but his greatest weapon is his mind. Batman has a plan for every occasion, as well as high-tech weapons, gadgets, and vehicles to assist him in his relentless pursuit of justice! Seven figures were revealed for DC Multiverse: Duke Thomas/Signal, Catwoman (purple outfit), Batman from the Hush storyline, the Joker from his recent solo series and more. Two megafigures shown were Mongul and Frankenstein.

Mortal Kombat

While Batman Begins was a critical success and a modest box office hit, nothing could prepare comic book fans for the masterpiece that was The Dark Knight. The 2008 sequel took everything that worked in the first film and cranked it up to its most brilliant potential while refining every aspect of Nolan’s craft that was deemed less than stellar. No name strikes terror into the hearts of Gotham’s citizens quite like the Joker. In a city overrun with larger-than-life criminals, the always-laughing villain stands alone. A complete psychopath with no moral compass whatsoever the Joker, whose real name and identity remain completely unknown, is characterized by his chalk-white skin, green hair and a permanent rictus grin stretched across his face. But there isn’t a single thing funny about this particular clown, who only finds humor in the suffering of others.

Then, the DC Multiverse slide showed up on the screen, resulting in thunderous applause. McFarlane made a point to note how the company's DC Multiverse line was one of the most popular to exist over the last year, beating out the company's other competitors.The first question was about potentially creating swappable heads that could be used across all figures. McFarlane mentioned that he would be getting "technical" to answer that question, bringing up how they might allow for lateral movements and so on, but the company isn't working on these at this time. Bane has three sets of hands, the right one gloved and the left not. His grip is larger, though his dependence on guns is less. For another fan, McFarlane brought the microphone into the crowd so they could ask their question, holding up a Gunslinger Spawn figure with the character riding on a horse for them to have and enjoy. Batman includes three Batarangs and his grapnel gun, all cast in bronze plastic like the old Mattel figures. There’s no place on his belt to attach them, so he can only pose with one at a time. The sculpt on his suit is a good one, though the armored codpiece is a little odd as a flexible piece. As is often the case, the cape feels quite narrow — maybe a future Gold Label variant could give him a larger cloth one. The string on his bow also has some flex, so he can pose in an archer’s position. He does not, however, have an individual arrow that can display that way.
