Doom Slayer Action Figure From McFarlane Toys

Great looking fig although I'm disappointed by the exposed arms.  One of the main draws about the Doomguy was he could be/look anyone under the armor.  It's a minor nitpick but with the arms showing it highlights who he is. That's not a bad thing, but for me I liked the fact that masked/armored characters could be "me."  Plus why have all that armor and kit just to leave your arms unprotected????

The Doom Slayer (also known by the UAC as DM1-5, DOOM Marine or The Slayer, the Demons of Hell as the Doom Slayer, the Unchained Predator, the Hell Walker or to the fandom DOOM Guy) has been the main protagonist for most the series and playable character in Doom franchise and in the upcom-ing Doom Eternal. His origin is intentionally vague, but he wears his iconic green Space Marine armor and slaughters through countless demons and monsters on a perpetual war against hell. The 7" figure from McFarlane Toys will include Base, Super shotgun, Extended arm blade and Sheathed arm blade. Look for it to be released in September. You can pre-order the figure now at BigBadToyStore.com.

They went EXTREME! Also its the same concept of womens armor... and the lack thereof. They dont really always design for actual form/function and more so for a look they want. Also if its due to him being white, he was always a white guy in the original games. I get what you mean tho. 

 

 

Probably the best ive seen so far from McFarlanes new licenses. Definitely going to have to check it out when it comes out. Hopefully articulation is good.

McFarlane could get away with doing both.  The Armored fig could be from the 2016 game (which I would buy) and I'll 100% be grabbing the 2019 fig.

 

Yeah it's the "white thing" lol.  He always was...(like Master Chief) but the whole armor...it could be anyone.  No matter what this is a slick fig and I'm grabbing it.  I wanted the 1/6 version but I missed out on that one.

Either Im blind or I dont see it say anywhere on that link of a bronze variant. Also the first link just shows a render from the first game thats just for placeholder purposes. Just like KILLmonger says, it would be cool to have that version as thats from the original 2016 Doom game as this one is based off of the new one Doom Eternal 2019.

Sorry, my bad, the link to the bronze variant was added.

And yeah, they have two different Doom marine listed.

Wow thats pretty cool if this is legit. Interesting that they show they may be doing both versions but the one is just the render theyve been using since they announced the Doom license. I wonder if we ll see it at NYCC this year. Not sure what tf the bronze version is referencing tho if that is true.
