My DC direct Arkham Croc's right arm fell right the hell off when opening package. So, I'm happy to get this McFarlane one. I'll need to jazz him up a bit though
Awesome video man! I have the DC Direct Croc, and I can tell you that figure 100% had breakage issues. His MASSIVE shoulder joints are CLEAR PLASTIC, and his elbows are INSANELY tight. When I got him the figure was put in boiling water to soften it up to get it moving. Thankfully mine has not broken, and apparently they re-released it and changed the shoulder joint material (maybe even to metal? I'm unsure on that one), but it's still fragile. This croc seems a lot more fun, but certainly not as nice looking. Great review!
i brought 2 DC Direct Arkham Asylum Killer Croc figures back on the day. they both broke at the right arm. never brought another DC Direct figure since
I'm pretty sure Todd McFarlane is just the name and face of McFarlane Toys.. he's not actually sculpting, painting, drawing the products. He's probably not really that involved till it's time to do his little preview short video on the item. You can see it on his face sometimes.. that it's the first time he's seeing it himself. He's definitely not the same as Steve Jobs was as the face of Apple.
Brad, both have pros and cons but are overall satisfying. I am waiting for a Man bat variant with open wings. Normally Todd will do a repaint and maybe a variant head(swamp thing). He did change the torso on Darksied (in theory)so it is possible for a flight pose variant. I would also like a wash applied and tone down or lose the bright purple ear paint. Croc could use a wash too. Croc is ordered, for me Man bat is a strong 🤔. Fantastic review 😎✌️
Only man bat I’ve got is the Arkham Knight one thought you’d have had that? So I’m looking forward to my weak ankles man bat when it gets to the uk. Got the dc collectibles Arkham asylum killer Croc too which I think not having the McFarlane one in hand yet looks better however is probably the most fragile thing ever so be nice to have one you can actually mess about with. Similar story to the Titan joker to be honest.
Definitely a prime case of the whole being greater than the sum of its parts. If you look at each part of the figure you’re going to see a LOT of problems BUT really, when was the last time we got a Man-Bat figure that looks NEARLY this awe-inducing? Why do SOME people insist on capitalizing EVERY letter in some words for emphasis? I FIND it REALLY annoying. I mean it GRINDS my patootie into a fine powder then JUST blows it into the wind.
In spite the problems I like the Man -bat, but the those purple sploches on the ears look very off putting for me , if I get him I am definitely repainting that
These are nice monster figures. Worth it if anyone is interested. Hey, Brad, have you seen the leaks of those McFarlane Super Powers figures? Apparently, they're out in some stores, but no one announced them anywhere online, only through forums and photos from people who physically bought them from stores.
I've noticed that with McFarlane the dc multiverse figures ankles want from one extreme to the other with the ratchets in the ankles being so stiff there hard to stand in curtain poses and ugly balls now there sculpted but so loose they can barely stand at all!
Man Bat is now a pass for me McFarlane's CQ issues are getting worse man bat would have benefited with ratchet joints in his ankles they're also give you articulation is these line but it doesn't work c'mon Todd get you're act together.
It was found out that that list was a lie. They didn’t take into account how Hasbro actually made money. Something like that. Realistically it would be Marvel Legends.
We should've gotten expanded alternative wings for $40. the Sully megafig is about three pounds of plastic at the same price so cost isn't the issue.
I really do want that Man Bat figure. Hope to get him soon. Great Review. Why is Todd taking so long to come out with a Cyborg Superman?

Great review!
Yup, mine broke while just doing a basic 360 rotation.
Gave my croc megafig a repaint and he can be a stunner but base paint wise the the old one has better base paint. Also love your vids too jcc2224
can't wait to get my mitts on Man-bat it looks awesome
The teeth are hard to paint? In a factory assembly line? My brother they were stamped on
Bring in the 2nd Channel The Brad Marvel Universe Geek and get another room with Marvel Collection in it...
I had the DC Direct Arkham Asylum Killer Croc, and while a great looking figure, his shoulder broke on day 2...
i brought 2 DC Direct Arkham Asylum Killer Croc figures back on the day. they both broke at the right arm. never brought another DC Direct figure since
That Man-Bat is a MUST for my collection 💯
Nah that croc
@@GxdBless7 looks great too, I’ve been waiting for that Man-Bat but Killer Croc looks badass, probably going to get him too 🐊
Hey firstname!
@yoy5 hey! How’s it going? You got either of these figs yet?
@@firstnamenlastname got man bat but not croc yet. Croc looks great but I'm into about 5 toy lines at the moment so I need to prioritize.
Best video yet!!!!😁👍

😃 Love Croc's teeth and the head sculpture of Man-Bat
Brad I went down the Marvel Legends rabbit hole also and put together the classic Avengers myself
Awesome review. I'm strongly considering getting that Killer Croc to go with my SH Figuarts and Mafex Justice League figures.
Welcome to his new channel Brad the Marvel U. Geek hehe. Nice video once again 👍
Amazing narration as always 😂😂
I love how people bitch about mcfarlane articulation then buy 55 dollar super 7 figures with half the articulation
The Super 7 does come with a ton of hands, guns and different heads for a figure
@@michaeldomingos8435 most of which go in a box never to be used
Love that Man-Bat!!!
Killer Crocs head, more his teeth is eh. That man bat is great besides some of the issues. Still excited to get them both.
I’d love to see brad review new comics like the Dark Crisis event

Man-Bat really should have come with claw hands and not fists
That man bat is cool should come with open hands

Great review, very funny. I want a comic Catwoman also, except the one with the the weird armpits windows I am down for any other comic costume.
Manbat looks glorious!
Both of these figures are awsome
In spite the problems I like the Man -bat, but the those purple sploches on the ears look very off putting for me , if I get him I am definitely repainting that
I dont get your issue with the wings when you praise the Mattel one for basically the same setup. The DCU Classics one has even more gapage
The wings are molded and don’t really have that wing flesh color. Ngl the DC Direct wings might be the best one.
These are nice monster figures. Worth it if anyone is interested. Hey, Brad, have you seen the leaks of those McFarlane Super Powers figures?

I was going to get both, but I think Killer Croc 🐊 is the best designed piece here.
Nice impression of Piglet there. Lol
Brad! Have you gotten your hands on any Page Puncher figures yet? Also, lots of McFarlane toys on sale on Amazon now!
Great review
I've been waiting so long to see you review it now I can buy Manbat I'm sure I'll like it
The animated series Man-Bat is #1
I've noticed that with McFarlane the dc multiverse figures ankles want from one extreme to the other with the ratchets in the ankles being so stiff there hard to stand in curtain poses and ugly balls now there sculpted but so loose they can barely stand at all!
Please start showing the height of the figures
Welcome to the marvel legends community.. wait till you get the build a figure lizard
Are you going to review the new Arkham city figures
Mr. Freeze will be tricky cause of his freeze gun. I wouldn't mind mcfarlane just doin a fig and maybe find a custom freeze gun to add on.
I never thought id see marvel figures on here lmao
Man Bat is now a pass for me McFarlane's CQ issues are getting worse man bat would have benefited with ratchet joints in his ankles they're also give you articulation is these line but it doesn't work c'mon Todd get you're act together.
please review the marvel legends on your 2nd channel
This is why Mcfarlane sold more action figures than any line in 2021. Period. Awesome
It was found out that that list was a lie. They didn’t take into account how Hasbro actually made money. Something like that. Realistically it would be Marvel Legends.
Love the Croc but the Man Bat sux ,cool Facesculpt but no bicep swible the Plastc look cheap..the loose joints sux..sorry Todd
Yea, I haven’t got the croc yet but he looks really good, people disagree and think he’s not that good but I’m my opinion he looks awesome
We have a Riddler
Brad, you forgot to mention the rips on the back of the pants are unpainted.
lol deluxe figure lol
Why does not care that he put mat bat?
👍🏻
😎
Marvel legends, well Hasblow, is going out of their way to make sure nobody wants to buy them anymore
Yeah man stay away from those little baby toys for woosies 🤣 McFarlane FTW keeps it brutal
Poorly designed ankles for sure on the man Bat. Damn it McFarlane, do better bud! 😤
