Very nice review. I like how you speak and I especially like your pros and cons. Don't care much about going in-depth into articulation like other reviewers do, also makes the review longer, so it's nice just being general and pointing out something missing, bad or great.
Thanks for watching and for the kind compliment! Yeah, there are plenty of channels out there who do the articulation rundown (and they're very good at it!) so I want to offer something different to that. If there's a particularly good or bad point of articulation, I'll mention it in Pros/Cons but I don't want to do a whole segment on it. I appreciate the support!
Great find Grimlock! I think McFarlane have been putting out some great figs this year and the Martian Manhunter in his classic attire keeps that consistency going.
You didn't get the first release did you? This figure is exactly that figure with a new harness, the texture on his legs is because he was wearing pants before.
Thanks for watching Clutch. Yeah, specialist retailers are the way to go sometimes. Thankfully the McFarlane line haven't hiked the DC Multiverse prices at this time, so fingers crossed you'll find Martian Manhunter somewhere for a fair deal.
So, what exactly does it have to make it a "Gold Label"? I know the Batman hazmat Gold Label has light up feature. but from your video, this has nothing special except the classic sculpt and under $20 price tag? Otherwise, it is a good looking toy.
Thanks for watching. I'm pretty sure this is just a classic comic book look... that seems ot be the trend this year with most (not all) of the Gold Label series. Even the Hazmat Batman is from the Amazo Virus storyline nearly 10 years ago now.
@@BlankCoverNetwork Thanks for the reply and info drop. some of these toy designs are so random -maybe just making one appearance here or there. But if it is cool, I'll go for it even if I've never seen it... hahaha...
So, I just have a question regarding Green Lantern (Hal). He´s my favorite superhero. Currently the only way to get him is in the pack that comes with Dawnbreaker. Meanwhile, Flash has been released in a pack as we as individually. I didn´t know exactly what the Gold Label was until now. The thing is that Hal has been released as Parallax within the Gold Label line. So, that means that´s going to be the only way to get him individually? More so, when they released a Blackest Night collection and Hal isn´t part of it when he´s the main protagonist of the story.
Hey Lester. Great question and, as a Hal Jordan fan myself, I get where you're coming from. I'm actually editing a video this weekend that talks about when we might get a classic Hal Jordan from McFaralane so hopefully that will answer some of your question. Hope you enjoy it!
@@BlankCoverNetwork I´m not going to risk it and, besides of getting Parallax, I´ll be getting the pack just in case. Because certain Multiverse figures either get discontinued (WW 84 for instance) or the prices go up.
Hey Alex. Thanks for watching and I know what you mean. I’m a little more selective about which McFarlanes I buy. This Martian Manhunter and Ghost Maker, for example, are really well proportioned.
@@BlankCoverNetwork I have the Martian Manhunter in hand, and yeah, the chest feels small to me proportion-wise. Not the first time with McFarlane figures.
@@TheQuebecDragon now that you and Alex have mentioned the chest, I've had anotehr look at it and you're right. NOW I CAN'T UNSEE IT!!! It's like his body is a Size Large, but for some reason his chest is a Size Medium. I still really like the figure though! He's holding onto a spot in my Top 10 DC Multiverse Figures of 2022... but the year isn't over yet.
@@BlankCoverNetwork I'm sorry! 😅 To be more precise, either the torso is too small or the hips/legs are too big. You match the two halves so they're proportionate to each other, then I think it'd look better. And yeah, I still like the figure despite that issue. An example of the same problem was with the Batman Rebirth figure. Probably a bunch of others but I only pick up a few McFarlanes. Thanks!

@@BlankCoverNetwork Thanks for the answer. :) I subscribed to your channel. Continue the good work.
Great video! Straight to the point
Thank you for watching and for the compliment! It is very much appreciated. I hope you enjoy some of my other videos too.
Found it in Forbidden Planet by chance in Shaftsbury Ave. Well happy with him :)

@@BlankCoverNetwork Thanks, yes also hoping to get the McFarlane Man Bat to the list soon.

Thanks so much for that info - really helpful insight into the texture.
Great figure but sadly there’s no target where I live. I’ll most likely get him online if I get the chance.

Too bad this scales so terribly with the other figures
The only thing wrong with this toys are big hips small chest
