I actually found one in store for the proper retail price. I nearly died! I don't know if it's perspective, or whether the masks are attached differently, but on mine it appears to be slightly lower on the face so she's not peering over the bottom edge of the eye slits. Easily the best McFarlane Catwoman by a country mile. Now we just need the Michelle Pfeiffer version.
Funny thing is that if you have the batman from bvs you can fix both figures in the neck joint part. Catwoman needs a longer peg and batman a shorter one. I did the swap and it did miracles to both of them!!
Looks nice (for McFarlane) but as you noted that mask placement is questionable, being as no one would wear a mask that close to their eyes without adjusting it.
Julie Newmar, Eartha Kitt, Lee Merriwether, Michelle Pfeiffer, Anne Hathaway and Zoe Kravitz all brought something amazing to the character in their live-action portrayals. They're all my favorites. If we're including voice performances - Adrienne Barbeau, Gina Gershon, & Nikka Futterman - Are also favorites
I found one at Target! Michelle Pfeiffer is my favorite Catwoman and I'm hoping McFarlane Makes a Batman Returns Wave, preferably with a Build A Penguin Army feature!
A month or 2 ago I got lucky and found this figure at GameStop for retail price. Platinum figures really shouldn’t be hard to find. They should just be fun color variants. That’s just me though.
I really hope that McFarlane will give us the first season Animated Series Catwoman variant some day. I know it's unlikely, but that's the best Catwoman costume IMO. & if they used the Arkham City version of that costume as a basis for that figure it'd fit perfectly in any display.
@@5POAFigureReviews I did buy the regular Knightfall Catwoman with the intention of doing exactly this kind of mod tbf, but it'd be nice if McFarlane would save me the effort.
Super lucky i found 3 platinums at my local Walmart about a month ago batman skydive this Catwoman and also steel all platinum for 24 plus tax canadian lol
Now I feel like I should have waited instead of buying the bat pod version which I only bought for cat woman, anyway. 🤨 Next time I’ll be more patient. 😄
If you go to figurinesforall.com, they are a Canadian store that often sells the Gold Labels that are exclusives to US stores, and are usually priced like normal. Hope that helps.
I saw someone who removed the hair piece and placed it I think they had to dremmel the inside bc it was slightly chunky but holy crap it actually fit almost to perfection. You gotta butcher a figure and acfesory to make it viable but it can be done surprisingly
Favorite Catwoman actress: Eartha Kitt. The One True Catwoman. And yes, I prefer her over Julie Newmar & Lee Meriwether. That said, Michelle Pfeiffer is a close second.
Just doesnt make since that they're still sending this out to reviewers and it's nearly impossible to get. I hope this means they are going to restock it soon. One of there best female figures yet.

That's awesome! Really happy for you
Walked into Target and she was right there on the peg. I was so excited.
Nice!
The Arkham City head on this body looks great, but it needs a longer peg.
Agreed!

I was extremely lucky to find this, the platinum Bale wirh the wired cape, and Batfleck at target.
too bad mc farlane can't get any more use from this buck since Nolan never gave us a supergirl
Ha! True. Q

I lucked out on finding this one out in the wild. Thanks for the review.
That's great! Glad you enjoyed it
Jeez I need to find away to get that platinum Catwoman

Building a Penguin Army would be a great direction to go
The mask is just an overlay, and can be pulled down for the correct eye look.
I just used a match stick to leverage it down. Isn't glued or anything.
Thanks for the info! I'll have to give that a try

I love this figure.
I hate scalpers.
I hate limited runs/availability
Perfectly said

They did a Platinum Edition of Knightfall in the gray and black that matches Animated Series. You'd just need to remove her hair and add the belt

My luck with finding anything (Super Powers, MOTU, Star Wars), I'll never see her.
Lee Maryweather is my fave Catwoman. I Love Julie and Eartha, but Lee was also Lily Munster and I'm a Munsters fan .
I didn't know that Lee Meriwether ever played Lily monster. I only ever knew about Yvonne DeCarlo
@@5POAFigureReviews it was for the 80s reboot Munsters today. It was a short lived show.
I’ve got the one with the batpod. I don’t think it’s worth it to get both.
Totally valid!
Pls do a review on mafex nightwing
I found mine at Books-A-Million
Nice! My BAM is about 35 min away, so I don't get out there very often
One thing I heard the rumors of is that we are supposedly gonna get a batman noel figure likely based on the page punchers buck are ya excited man?
I'd definitely be down for a Lee Bermejo Joker and Catwoman
Super lucky i found 3 platinums at my local Walmart about a month ago batman skydive this Catwoman and also steel all platinum for 24 plus tax canadian lol

These days it does sometimes pay off to be patient
I wish this figure was available on Amazon or any other website to order instead of mcfarlanes

man i want her but her and every other catwoman is so expensive and i just got into collecting mcfarlanes (that collector wonder woman why 😢)
With the exception of batwoman beyond and cyclone, McFarlane female characters are notoriously hard to find
Can the broken mask be put on skydive bale?
I don't have the Sky Dive Bale, but if I get him I will check.
I saw someone who removed the hair piece and placed it

Though Earth isn't my first choice, in the few episodes she appeared in, she is clearly having a great time and made it her own.
7:21 I don't feel very bad for him considering he was planning on stealing Clark's girl.
Fair lol
Diapers, diapers, diapers. McFarlane is not gonna get me until they change that part.
That's one thing about this one I like. the belt helps mitigate that diaper look
Just doesnt make since that they're still sending this out to reviewers and it's nearly impossible to get. I hope this means they are going to restock it soon. One of there best female figures yet.
That's what I am hoping too.
👍
never worth caving to scalpers. i thought i missed my shot and i found her on a random grocery run
What?! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Why does McF make all their Batmans so tall?? He towers over the entire roster!
Batman’s supposed to at minimum 6 feet tall
