  1. It's Wednesday, and you know what that means... ToyFarce review! This week, we're having a look at the massive Batman: The Animated Series Man-Bat one sixth scale figure by Mondo. What a BEAST! I was blown away by how big the box was, and the figure definitely does justice to Dr. Langstrom's alter ego. The sculpt and paint are second to none, and it looks like it came right out of the screen. As mentioned in the intro, the box is HUGE, with beautiful art on it, as is tradition with Mondo. They make it really hard for us who usually get rid of the packaging, and I still have all the Batman: The Animated Series figure boxes that they did... Please, Mondo, make an ugly box next time! The box has 2 big inserts, one with the figure and extra heads, the other with the gigantic open wings of the SDCC Exclusive version. Man-Bat, aka Dr. Kirk Langstrom who developed a serum that turns him into a giant bat creature, is a fantastic, massive figure, especially for a 1/6 scale. The paint and sculpt are amazing, huge shout out to Alex Brewer (@fanplasticfour) and Tom Rozejowski (@zelu1984) and the rest of the team behind this beautiful figure. Man-Bat (SDCC version) comes with 4 extra head sculpts (normal, sad, screaming and mid-transformation), a torn shirt, the wide open wings and a batman symbol logo. It's a gorgeous figure, which will have me rethink the way I wanted to display it. The whole time I was thinking about displaying it with wings wide open (sing that to Creed's tune... With wiiiings wide opaaaahn!), but I gotta say that I love the crouching pose with bent wings... My only nitpicks are that it is quite "top heavy" also, so it's pretty difficult to pose him in a way that won't fall, and the stand included is a bit too long and won't allow for a crouching pose... Since he'll be on top of a Detolf, I have to find a 'secure' pose. Decisions, decisions... Another home-run from Mondo. The next figure in the Mondo Batman: The Animated Series 1/6 scale figure line is the Mask of the Phantasm (which is already on its way!). Review coming soon... More news at 11:00... "SCREEEEEEEEEEECH!" (actual Man-Bat quote)
  2. It's Wednesday, and you know what that means: ToyFarce review! This week, we're having a look at the Batman: The Animated Series Condiment King wave from McFarlane Toys/DC Direct, or basically, the Condiment King figure with its 4 'other figures' accessories. Spoiler: this is not going to be a nice review, those figures are not great. Sadly, they look and feel like bootleg versions of the original ones. The packaging is pretty nice, has a very retro feel, with drawings from the series on the side (which look nothing like the figures in the packaging, but I digress...). The whole point of that wave was the build-a-figure, which is the only new release. As an completist (or in other words, an idiot), I got the wave because I wanted the new figure. They were fairly easy to get, I ordered them on Target's website and they arrived a few weeks later. First, the caped crusader himself, Batman. Honestly, this figure is quite terrible. The shiny plastic and the look of it make it feel like a bootleg version of the original DC Collectibles figures. They used the body of the Batman figure that came with the Batcycle (and sold the figure and the Batcycle separately this time around... Yay!), which has a god awful ab-crunch, and used a different head, I believe (which looks more like the New Adventures of Batman head sculpt). It looks clunky, doesn't articulate well, and the right leg broke as I got it out of the box (it's holding up with blutac on the pictures). It comes with 5 extra hands, his grapnel launcher, a batarang, and the Condiment King's arms. I understand that we need Batman on the shelves for people to get in the line, but we've already had 4 re-issues of that one from DC Collectibles (+ the Batcycle one), so this mash-up of all figures doesn't really make sense. Also, the cel shading looks very bad. Robin, the boy wonder, also feels like an unofficial version of the original DC Collectibles figure. Shiny plastic, the cape is not even painted yellow on the inside... What is going on, McFarlane Toys? Robin comes with 5 extra hands, a rubber bola and the Condiment King's legs. Just like the old figure, he has articulations but doesn't move well. This figure was already released twice (and DC Direct did the cel shading a lot better), so apart from getting the Condiment King parts, there is also no point for it. Mr Freeze is another figure that was released a few times before. It wasn't the best figure in the old Batman: the Animated series line, and it still isn't today. The colors are a bit off, and very shiny. They used the same rubber parts on the joints like the old figure, which disintegrate fast, sadly. Mr Freeze was first released in the GCPD Rogue's Gallery set, and was available later as an individual release, so this one is the third one. He comes with 8 extra hands, his freeze gun and the Condiment's King backpack with ketchup and mustard guns. Finally, the Scarecrow. Well, it's not the worst of the wave, I guess. He does look like a very shiny copy of the original one. He comes with 2 hands, an unmasked head and a scythe, just like the old figure did, as well as the whole bust and head of the Condiment King (who separated the build-a-figure? I feel like it's really uneven. One gets a backpack, the other gets half a body). The Jonathan Crane head has less paint on it than the original release. Alright, so... after going through so much, you'd think the Condiment King figure will be worth it, right? Well... eh. The figure looks cool, despite the bad cel shading, but the legs on mine were really loose (nothing that a drop of super glue before moving the joints in every direction didn't fix, but still...). It's slightly bigger than the other figures in the line too, so it doesn't scale really well. I guess there can't only be great figures. Sometimes, you're gonna pick something and gonna be disappointed. That's the life of a collector! More news at 11:00... "Ah, the big bad Bat-guy. I knew you'd ketchup to me sooner or later! How I've relished this meeting!"
  3. It's Wednesday, and you know what that means: ToyFarce review! This week, we're having a look at the brand new Harley Quinn 1/6 scale figure from the Batman: The Animated Series line by Mondo. This line has been pretty awesome so far, and Harley Quinn is another homerun. The deeper we get into that line, the better it gets! As is tradition, the box is one of those boxes that you just can't throw away. They're also pretty big, so you have to have some space to store them (thanks, Mondo...). The front of the box opens to reveal a window, with velcro (which used to be magnets). This is the timed edition of the figure, which has a few bonus items, including the hyenas. There are 2 levels of inserts. Harleen Quinzel, aka Harley Quinn comes with a ton of fun accessories: 4 extra heads (including an unmasked one), 4 extra pairs of hands, her 2 hyenas Bud and Lou, with their bowl, a steak and a bone, a hammer, a joker scepter, a handbag, a mannequin arm, Batman's belt, Batman's handcuffs, her purse, a bottle of poison perfume and a certificate that declares her sane. This set is really close to be the 12-inch version of the DC Collectibles Expression set, minus the fish outfit, a couple of firearms and a few heads. The heads are relatively easy to change, the pegs on the hands are slightly too short, with the hands getting out of the pegs easily if you move the figure around too much. The Hyenas have no articulation at all, which is a bit sad. A neck articulation at least would have made them slightly better. The articulation is way better than Mondo's previous Catwoman figure, and Harley can definitely move a bit better. The next 1/6 scale Batman: The Animated Series figures from Mondo are Man-Bat and the Phantasm from Mask of the Phantasm (both were already pre-ordered with the quickness). More news at 11:00...

  4. It's Wednesday, and you know what that means... ToyFarce review! This week, we're having a look at the 1/6 scale figure of the Joker from Batman: The Animated Series by Mondo, the SDCC limited edition version. The Mondo 1/6 scale figures have been pretty great until now, and that Joker is no exception. The figure itself is easily the best of that line, and the different heads and accessories are just the cherry on top! As usual with Mondo, the box is a work of art, with 2 of their amazing prints on it. It is a huge box too, which opens in the front thanks to magnets (how do they work?). There are 2 layers of inserts inside. (A hand had gotten loose during transportation, and I could hear it move inside the box which gave me a mini panic attack.) The Clown Prince of Crime comes with a ton of accessories: 5 extra heads (3 extra heads for the standard version, with the top hat version and the head from the 'Be a Clown' episode being the exclusive ones for this set), 5 extra sets of hands (12 hands in total), 2 smiling fishes, a normal (ball) bomb, a Joker dynamite stick, a Joker stack of dynamite, an ice pick, his playing cards and a stand. That is A LOT of accessories! With 6 different heads, he is only 2 heads short of being the 12 inch version of the DC Direct Expressions Pack. The various expressions are: Smiling, Smug, Laughing, Sad, top hat version and 'Be a Clown' version. The heads and hands are very easy to change, which is always a plus. The cel shading on the figure is nicely done too, with the back of the figure being a darker purple than the front. Articulation-wise, it does the job, even with single elbows and knees, ball joints for shoulders and legs, and swivels all around. Not torso/ab articulation, the jacket is a big rubber part on top of the body. It is a great figure, and my only complaint about it is the price. At $235, it is the most expensive of that line so far (Batman was $125 four years ago, Mr Freeze was $130 and Catwoman $165). I get that he comes with a ton of accessories + inflation, etc... but it is still a tough pill to swallow... and yes, I bought it anyway. The limited one, even. I know. More news at 11:00... Without Batman, Crime Has No Punchline.
  5. It's Wednesday and you know what that means... ToyFarce review! This week, we're looking at the brand new Batman figure from the New Adventures of Batman animated series, by MAFEX. Batman the Animated Series holds a special place in my heart, and I have loved all the Kenner figures that we got in the 90's, all the DC Collectibles/Direct figures that we had in the last decade, so when MAFEX announced that they would be tacking the Animated Series, I was overjoyed. Well, that is until I saw that they decided to kickstart the line with the New Adventures design, which are not as iconic than the original Animated Series, but still very Bruce Timm-esque. The DC Collectibles line did start with that one too, and we saw how far they went, so there is hope! The box is the usual MAFEX box type, with a window at the front showing the figure and all the accessories, and using a blue color, which is often used with promo art for the New Adventures series. I've read many comments about collectors being disappointed they didn't use the iconic red color, but that is for the Animated Series, and not the New Adventures. Even Kenner and DC Collectibles had blue cards for those. The figure is another very decent, brilliantly articulated offering like only MAFEX and other 'imports' brands can offer, but without being too much in order not to ruin the general aesthetic of the figure. A thigh swivel for example, would have kinda ruined the legs with a straight line right in the middle, even if it seems to be everything a collector asks for in a figure these days. Batman comes with 2 capes (one in rigid rubbery plastic that covers his shoulders, for those nice static poses, and a soft goods cape which allows for more posing), an unmasked Bruce Wayne headsculpt (wait... Bruce Wayne is Batman??), 4 extra pairs of hands, a batarang and a grapnel launcher, in action, with a metal rod to keep it always straight. Unfortunately, the rod cannot be removed to have the grapnel launcher 'not in action', but we'll get over that. Overall, this figure is far superior to the DC Collectibles one. Better articulations, more possibilities... The legs might be a bit too thin and I've seen some collectors have already broken a foot, but that is (unfortunately?) how Bruce Timm designed those characters, so we can expect more figures looking like that. We'll just have to be gentle with them! Not looking forward to the female characters, which were already very tiny and brittle on the DC Collectibles line... The New Adventures Joker is expected to join the Bat in July next year (or later, as delays are a tradition at MAFEX), and we're hoping for more announcement in between. More news at 11:00... I am vengance, I am the night... I am Batman!
