Previews has a *preview* of the latest McFarlane Toys DC wave.



was really hoping for Etrigan in his usual red and blue outfit

I kinda like that etrigan but was hoping for his classic outfit first.

I liked the Batman figures designed by Todd but that Wonder Woman isn't doing it for me. Maybe I'll feel differently once I see a clearer shot of it. King Shazam isn't doing it for me either.

Etrigan and the DKR armored Batman look pretty nice though.

Instant buys.

Wonder Woman's outfit reminds me of a more colorful and covered Angela.

Wonder Woman is impressing me.

Etrigan is impressing me.

King Shazam, the body impresses me but I'm not interested in this design. This i'd like as a normal new52.

Armored Batman - I think this a non articulated prototype but I doubt the torso will be improved for articulation. So not impressed as I don't need a statue.

Unmasked Shriek - Not really new but I loathe this alt head release style Mcfarlane is doing. Invert the plastic or something to make the body seem new at least. But the head should have just been with the BAF.

And, via not Previews - Suicide Squad Collect to Build Wave:

Well this is all lining up with those "leaked" pre-order listings from last month or so. Going off of those the Suicide Squad wave builds King Shark, but then additionally there will also be a Gold Label release of King Shark (guessing one will be bloody and the other won't) and then there will also be unmasked separate releases for Bloodsport and Peacemaker.

As much as I like classic Etrigan, Im good with this look for now and am just thrilled with any Etrigan. Knowing Todd's interests I'm sure a classic will be soon enough.

I like both WW and Shazam, but more custom and kitbash potential, between the 3 WWs, I can probably make my favorite Earth-2 look. And if we don't see a more classic Shazam from that body I'll be wildly surprised

I missed the Suicide Squad ones until today.

Any others beyond these and the SS ones floating around that you know of? I don't go digging for this stuff and stay off social for the most part.

The Suicide Squad wave is a no brainer for King Shark, imo. I really hope that Mcfarlane doesn't mess up the Dark Knight Returns figures. We're going to need a Carrie Kelley and Joker.

From Twitter

Definitely want that Hal but I can wait for a single release. No need for the evil GL Bats.

I'm very much here for THE Suicide Squad figured... as long as they look decent haha

I'm seriously hopeful

I wish the King Shazam pics were more clear. These all look good. Its nice its not all Batman.

LOL, what's with that Wonder Woman costume?

White Knight Batman fist hand is going to be a problem.

Wonder Woman looks kinda like Sybil Danning in Battle Beyond the Stars:



Either way, looking forward to picking up her, Batman and any other Mcfarlane-ized DC characters and mixing them in with those upcoming Spawn Universe figures.

Todd’s such a tease, I can’t remember what cartoon it was, maybe Rick & Morty, where the characters were trapped in a place with only off-brand versions of stuff they knew, but that’s how I feel. Want a comic Wonder Woman? well, here’s a wacky covered up knight version. Comic Etrigan? well, here’s a similar but not quite/silver one. Shazam? here’s the vampire hobo version no one asked for...

It’s such a pity that Todd has the license and the figure quality and sculpts are good, but he’s not more judicious with the layout of the waves. At least maybe a 40/60 comic/Todd’s fetishes split would be better. Definitely feeling like it’s 10/90 still.
