Not after probably Summer. Based on these reveals in Germany, they may do the movie toy line for Drunk Supergirl. I'm expecting a Mamoa Lobo who can cut a fart, whistle at his moto, and call you toots in his real voice. If it wasn't the kid line, he'd also come up with a light up cigarette accessory.

Fisher Price and SpinMaster have done movie-tie-in toes with the actor's voice. SpinMaster did it for the 2023 Flash and I think they did it for either Batpatinson or Batfleck.
You fuckers aren't really DC fans who grew up on the characters, comic books and cartoons like some of us, so you love to talk shit about "kids lines" - well, let me tell you, these are all fucking toys.
PICREL has 5POA and fucking talks and only cost me $5-7 new, on clearance from the Bald Billionaire.
Anytime I have people over for dinner, or for something like a movie night or to catch a game as a group, and they look through my display, it's the one thing at least one person picks up (never asking, mind you, just taking it in their paws but never mind).
When they find it talks and sounds "just like The Rock," they all get hard and wet. The girls especially are excited, dig out their phones to find out they can't order it anymore.

tl'dr A farting, butt scratching, cigar smoking Lobo toy should be the least surprising thing to happen in 2026.

REMINDER ADULT COLLECTORS WERE A MISTAKE

Toy Story used to make fun of them, you know

DC Says Anime & Manga’s Advantage Over Western Comics Lies in Storytelling
Jim Lee, DC Comics President, Chief Creative Officer, and Publisher, spoke to Nikkei XTrend about his career, current trends, and the advantages that Japanese manga and anime have over Western comics. Lee says that Japanese storytelling (and Asian content more broadly) is booming because young people want to discover something that is “uniquely their own,” perhaps rather than just inheriting current trends, and because of the nature of the stories compared to Western comics:

The stories told in Japanese manga and anime are incredibly powerful. I often find myself wondering, ‘What is missing in Western comics, and why aren’t they able to achieve the same flavor?’ Also, I think manga has an ‘advantage’ over American comics, which are mostly about superheroes, and that’s where the majority of sales and readers are concentrated.“

“In Japan, it’s closer to ‘literature,’ and anyone can read it, and it’s not just hero stories. There’s a much wider range of genres, like stories about cooking and soccer. You can draw stories from that. So I’m very happy that the manga has been so successful, because it gives me a ‘goal’ to aim for. The manga market is bigger than our industry, so the question becomes, ‘What can we learn from this?’“

Lee says that it’s not just art style, but the “sensibility” of Japanese stories, and later adds, “Another thing to add is that in the West, comics and animation have been considered ‘children’s media.’ As people grow up, they move on to live-action. But in Japan, that’s not the case. Not only is there a wide range of genres, but adults also read manga and watch anime. As a culture, it’s an ‘art’ that isn’t limited to a specific age group.“

Adult toy collectors sure are cringe. If there is a scenario where an adult robs a toy from a kid, that just makes them look bad.
Model kits however is a more acceptable adult-oriented hobby.

And being able to read a book at over an eighth grade level gets one nothing as people with connections and in person social skills are valued. That's not favorable for toy collectors, so how do toy collectors get vast fortunes to spend on thousands of dollars of plastic anyway?

>>11691658

Walking around with a chip on your shoulder is annoying to everyone else. Cut it out cry baby. Suffer in silence like the rest of us.

>>11691720
They don't. Marvel Legends and DC Multiverse, despite being technically kids lines, are definitely geared towards adult collectors. Plus, no parent is spending, on average, $25 a pop, on an action figure that little Timmy is just going to break or lose within a month. Kids lines like the Marvel Action Heroes stuff, Spinmasters, and Mattel's new DC line exist at a lower price point for kids.

>>11691737
They announced a price for mattels line?

>>11691741
I haven't seen anything for the kids line, and no info has been released about the collectors line at all yet, we won't see anything for at least six months, if not more for that. I'd imagine the kids line to be comparable to whatever Hasbro's Marvel kids line is at, I don't pay attention to that so I don't know, but you're a big kid, you can look up the price for those yourself.

>>11691768
They also have a cheaper line called Action Heroes or something that are a smaller scale and are a kids line. They're comparable to Spinmasters stuff. I know you're being factious though, cut it out. No one thinks it's cute.

>>11691768
I just looked it up, it's called Epic Hero Series.

>>11691851
Hasbro and Mattel are publicly traded companies and have events scheduled because they have quarterly reports and shareholder meetings where they have to show they made an effort to promote and hype the licenses they're paying for, to attract more investors. It's gay shit run by people with business degrees who don't even know what a Batman or Darth Vader are, they're just franchises that make them money.

>>11691783
Supposedly already available, since we have only had one decent OP before Jarrett hijacked those last three threads and just copied the OP over like current OP did last night, you'll just need to do your own home work.

But foreign collectors already posted physical toys on social, so they won't be cancelled due to Mattel.

>>11691884
Thanks for the input

Guys I’m pretty sure Mattel is going to blow not only mcfarlane but hasbro the fuck out. We’re so fucking back. Rest up and save your money for the next year. Don’t give Todd another penny.

>>11691974
Where's the wired capes?

>>11692018
Mattel took all the wire for their figures and that’s why mcfarlane figures no longer have them.

>>11692005
I have no bias. I bought 2 of Todd’s figures during covid when he had just gotten the license and I thought the figured were shit so I sold them off. McFartlane’s DC sucked, but Mattel’s DC also sucked and they’re gonna suck again. Cope.

>>11692033
They will put imports to shame. :)

This is unfortunately going to be correct. McFarlanes are trash but this revisionist history that Mattel is actually good is out of this world.

>>11692200
My friend, please see motu origins. Tell me how many teelas you count. I'm not suggesting that there is a ton of females in origins but c'mon dawg, be real.
If you guys just want to spread misinformation and argue then that's fine but damn g it's pretty easy to search this stuff up if you utilize the power of the information super highway.

>>11692206
MOTU Origins is a split line but it's closer to for collectors than kids because of its price and because it duplicates but improves (in most cases) on the original 80s figures. That is of interest to people who grew up on He-Man. It is admittedly also for MOTU collectors to introduce these characters to their kids too though but the price point on Origins now being almost 20 bucks can tell you it is more for parents who are invested in MOTU and are willing to spend more to spread MOTU to their kids. If it was a real kids line it would need to be closer to $10.

>>11692226
>>11692226
My friend, and you are my friend, I am an old faggot. Toss your buzz words about in a vain attempt to change the goal posts to girls buying action figures all you like, but the proof is more on my side than your side in this discussion. Mattel makes female figures and they sell, go check the previously mentioned information super highway and you'll see that while I refuse to argue with you I'm closer to presenting reality than you are.
Go in peace as I have none.

All I'm saying is that female figures sell. It's like Zatanna never happened but it was last week.

The only correct Wonder Woman is the Collector's Edition, but if you're complaining about a $70 set being too expensive there's no way you could swing for a CE.
Since you don't seem to care about how a figure actually looks you should just wait for Mattel's slop, I'm sure there will be a budget-friendly kid's toy you can afford.

Jeez Louise, I knew most of you assholes were not actually DC fans but the other anon is correct, stop talking about the comic books since you obviously have more plastic inside your brain than the average human, and can barely remember how to string sentences together. Rebirth was a soft reset and the Nu52 continuity still exists in it. Think adding Pouchie to The Simpsons or changing the cops on Law and Order, since both of those are likely generational milestones for you, grandpa. The current continuity can be considered a reboot post the Metal shit, but even people who hate Scott Snyder don't all agree on that and DC certainly doesn't officially claim it.

So... Toys? Which version of Batman do you prefer. Classic blue cape and cowl with the capsule belt and yellow oval? Or the more modern black cape with black hat and pouch belt? I flip flop myself. I grew up with the left but I really got into comics in my teens and adult years with right.

Teal gold and black works surprisingly well for Batman.

I can't find a picture that isnt ancient or a webp so this might not do it justice. He was called future Batman to so I headcanon it as a Batman Beyond thing. Maybe he was just as Azreal I didnt know about like half of my favourite toys as a kid.

I really doubt 7in Mcfarlanes would work with 6in vehicles. The 7in figures are very big compared to 6in figures, moreso than the numbers would suggest.

I grew up during the 90s, with TNBA on TV and the black suit in the comics and movies, so that's what I gravitated towards the Year One style black/gray or all black with the yellow oval. It just made more sense and seemed more realistic. As my tastes refined with age, and depictions of Batman pushed for more realism, I've found I'm more partial to blue/gray with the black logo, or black/gray with the yellow oval since it represents when the character was most fun for me. I still have a soft spot for the 90s movie/post-Knightfall suit style though.

All of you sound like desperate shills.
Mattel made ugly boring shit sometimes when they had the license but McFarlane has made ugly boring shit since.
Whatever else Todd shits out this year is not going to be miraculously better than Zatanna or not reflect re-tooking, repaint and re-use for the upteenth Flash or GL. Mattel looks like they learned more in the last 6-8 years than McFarlane should have in the last 3-4.
But Mattel will, by its very nature, have more unimaginative, boring, reuse, repaint than even Todd.
But thankfully the repaint won't be repetitive fugly jokerized junk. And Mattel's females won't have crotch bulges or be taller than most of the male figures. Or worse, look like a male head with a long-haired wig on.

>>11694148
I’m convinced anyone talking shit about Mattel at this point isn’t a DC fan but rather a Todd fan.

>>11694154
I don't even buy Todd slop but I'm not getting my hopes up that Mattel is going to be much better than they were in the past. I want them to be better, don't get me wrong, but I'm setting my expectations low so I won't be disappointed.

You realize that from 2008 til 2019, that the DC General rarely ever had a general because nobody gave a shit about Mattel's figures because they were so awful, right?
For the vast majority of the DC Generals, it was mainly DC Direct and Mezco talk. And the One:12 line had its own General for the last half of the 10s.

So the fact we've had nonstop DC Generals since McFarlane Toys took over, does that mean there are that many Todd fans?

Shit, just look at how many DC Generals we had from October til December in 2015. All but one of them centered on DC Direct's stuff. Most of them don't even last longer than 2 weeks (and this is before the automatic self saging limit that happens today).

>>11694192
>For the vast majority of the DC Generals, it was mainly DC Direct and Mezco talk. And the One:12 line had its own General for the last half of the 10s.

I don't remember when Mafex started making them and Revoltech definitely wasn't a draw, hence the DC Generals being so rare and rarely ever hitting the post/image limit until everyone was celebrating Mattel losing the DC license in 2019. I think the busiest DC General ever got was for Mezco and DC Direct's TAS lines until WB stripped the license away from MAttel.

Our archive only goes to sometime in last half of 2015 and there's only 18 pages total for DC Generals.
2015 to 2019 is page 15 to 18, and most of page 15 is shitting on Mattel and being excited for Spinmaster and McFarlane's upcoming lines. So in 5 years, there's 15 pages worth of archives thanks to MCFarlane reviving the DC brand on /toy/ vs 3 pages of Mattel's 4 years.

>>11694199
well the post limit keeps getting hit, so who cares. it's not like anyone uses anything beyond page 4. Everything after page 4 is a dead thread, especially since most people forget about the self saging threads that hit the two week limit.

>>11694205
The imports weren't discussed too much outside of their own threads back in the day, but they were brought up from time to time.

>>11694208
Last Mattel figure I got was in 2021, so to be fair it's been a while since I've gotten anything from them. But I'm still not over hyping myself up for the collector line.

>>11694055
That reminds me -- my DTS giant is still in his fucking package like the day I picked up the pre-order from my comic shop. It's probably in the closet - buried under clothes I should donate - because when I moved, I didn't have shelves yet.

Mattel have mastered making toys for all ages. Look at kpop demon hunters as an example multiple accessories and face plates for $22 you could easy give it to a kid or have it right next to overpriced imports and it wouldn’t look out of place

I got into MotU in 2024. I loved origins so much, they hit such a good balance of vintage and new. I hated Masterverse though. New movie toys look like a mixed bag but way better then Masterverse. New kids line is fine for a kids line it depends on the price. I never collected WWE stuff or known anything about Kpop. I miss when Four Horsemen were doing MotU and DC with them but the toys are dated by today's standards and lmao fuck Matty Collector.

I'm sure the new DC toys will be fine. I find it hard to be hyperbolic or dramatic. I could never get into Todd stuff because I dont like his scale. But I also dont collect Marvel Legends or anything either. I was mostly into giant robots/mecha/transformers and some toku/figuarts.

>Mattel is back

I still remember when McFelon got the license everybody was so excited and can't wait to see what the "master" of sculpt can do with the line.

And after all these years?

I don't think we ever see a figure from Todd that can raise its legs to 90 degrees

I finally found WW at Target, apparently second wave is not exclusive and they hardly got any.
Would I prefer it more if they were at least 6? Sure.
But considering what just hedgehogs from 2packs sell for on ebay (actual recent sales), I expect to get back at least the price of almost 2 DC humans. Bought 2 last winter, Target's Sonic sale (so I essentially got 3 for price of 2).
I'm satisfied with the $65-70 spent, versus maybe a bit more to Gamestop for 2 Zatanna's I didn't even bother open and only did recently to make sure they weren't fucked up.
Rather have those 6 human DCs, even 5" than 2 Zatanna 7+ inchers.

>>11694272
That actually looks fun, for like $5 retail.
They should do that on an animated DCSHG special and just repaint those and offer them to retailers, I bet they would sell out.

>>11694157
Had expectations for Macfarlane's shit based on DC's toy community forum, who had been buying them since they got the license.
Those people were definite Todd shills. First one I bought was Red Son, then Rebirth Bat and Supes, Lex, and I was already unhappy.
Mattel I own like 20, most were given to me. I pretty much hated the sculpt reuse on the heads, and the sameness of the body bucks (see PICREL) but paint was okay.
Not planning on buying much at retail no matter who has license.

I generally tend not to listen to most people's opinion on the internet. Too many mouth breathing retards trying to voice their shitty opinions. I wait to from my own consensus. Like when Todd first for the line in 2020. I grabbed a couple of figs to try the line out, and even though I was and still am desperate for a DC equivalent to Marvel Legends, I passed on Todds offerings, outside a few figs here and there, because I just don't like his toys. Simple as. I decided this all on my own without the input of anyone else. This thread was shilling them hard in those first few years and I kept saying they were shit. Lo and behold now you fickle faggots have changed your minds on the line, despite it being the same as it's been since wave fucking one.

There are 3 classic designs but they're secret figures in blind bags which I've never even found in stores around here. (I mean blindbags period) so I gave up trying to find them. I already gave enough to Ebay lately.

There's a no cape bright colored Amy, blue and gray with oval bat shadow, and some flash we havent seen yet.

>>11695182
Nearly a year ago we were arguing about how annoying it is how some anons in this thread get super uppity and pissy about how total strangers buy toys he think are overpriced, despite that being a completely subjective opinion. He tried to argue that $30 or whatever is a lot of money, my retort to that was that I had just spent like $10K building a new patio for my house, and how I could fart away $30 and not even notice it. He proceeded to then meltdown, fail to understand how home ownership in the US works, and then spend the next YEAR sperging out about patios whenever he found himself on the losing side of an argument. It's mostly one guy doing it, there are the occasional tag alongs that will also participate, but it's very clearly one guy sperging out about a complete stranger having the ability to own and do renovations on a home. Not really sure what psychological condition causes this, but he's clearly unhinged, is very self centered, and not really well informed on how the real world operates.

I just think it's crazy that he latched onto such an innoculus post and has been sperging out about it for almost a year straight. Talk about buck broken. If you're curious here's the original exchange, wasn't too hard to find since the last mention of patios on /toy/ prior to this was like a year earlier.

One guy even says he can afford the toys but they aren't worth the price and that he waited to get one on sale which you can see above the looney toon below you's post in the link >>11695201. Then a guy some of us took to calling Patty starts bragging about how he did a home renovation where he added a patio to his house so the toy prices are nothing to him. And somehow it got out he was using wood pallets rather than building it out of concrete, stone or brick. So basically he built the patio on the cheap and was bragging like he was a big spender.

How are some of you able to afford these toys if you're so hard up for money?

I'm one of the people who has made patio jokes and pallet jokes. Some of you assholes have no sense of humor. If I don't get offended and start insulting anons for calling me out on the fact that I rarely dust or can't pose for shit, you fuckers really need to get over yourselves and stop bitching about everyone being poor and not being able to afford homes, or like the asshole suggesting we need credit checks on another /toys/ thread are just frankly, simply, insane.

Just because I own, not rent, and own and can afford imports, doesn't mean I want to waste my money and overpay. Bezos, Gates, Musk - all those idiots have been rich long enough or have absurd amounts of money that they want to piss some away on something stupid like a cowboy wearing sub-orbital flight, is dumb. Sam Walton is as rich and still lives in a simple house in the middle of nowhere, butt-fuck Kansas or another one of those mid-western states, not some walled, gated rich people's enclave. He still buys his fucking socks in plastic tubes or plastic bags and doesn't just piss away his money even when he has it. That's how some of us were raised.

I am not going to respond to any particular thread because I'm going back to bed like a normal, healthy human being. I'm not wasting more than a few seconds skimming the thread to see what you fuckers felt like melting down or wasting energy on versus talking ACTUAL FUCKING TOYS.

he's pretty strong

>>11695835

>the only OC photos we get in this thread is from someone using it to win an internet arguement

Sad

>>11695843
i used to post a lot more but the state of this general is pretty dire lately. the weirdos with no toys suck all the fun out of it

>>11695843
Jared and his friends were all the funposters.

>>11695709
We are fucked. Those WWE figures are terrible.

>>11695833
Somehow someone is making McFarlanes look fun to pose. Yet I could never get into it.

>>11695852
That's because you have nothing and are nothing.

>Complains about no toys being posted
>Makes fun of toy posts
Many such cases. And you wonder why this general is a joke lol.

>>11695873
I unironically barely have any toys o take pictures of right now because I'm that one fucking guy who wanted a blue lantern flash toy and it's not here yet.

Also I dont know why I'm still here. But every other site pisses me off too.

>>11695918
I didnt mean to fucking post that picture. I couldn't even find a dc toy in my random folder

>>11695867
My guess is Mattel will never make an Ambush Bug figure. Or a Frankenstein figure. Or a Nightmaster figure. McFarlane was better for extremely deep cuts.

>>11695918
None of these characters seem accurate except maybe R2. What am I looking at here, Star Wars 0.5 Prototype Edition?

what, you don't like fat no neck luke?

NTA but why do you guys insist on being hyper critical of people's poses like they're trying to win some kind of competition? It's annoying and kind of pretentious. Give it a break.

>>11695950
thats polite advice, not hyper criticism. i get where you're coming from but bad example

>>11695950
just giving anon advice on how to get a better natural pose since he seems to get shit on the marvel thread for having weird poses. Instead of laughing at him, I try to help, if that's being pretentious, so be it.

I don't mind it. It's better than the guys in the Marvel thread, but at the same time I do get the other guy's point. I'm just having fun with my toys, I'm not trying too hard to make things accurate or correct posing wise.

>>11695971
settle the fuck down

Maybe someday we'll get posters who actually know how to play with their toys. Probably not though.

>There's a right or wrong way to enjoy your toys.
Why are you like this? They're just toys bro.
