That Batfleck does look cool! But I had to pass because I got 2 Batfleck Batman’s already haha. But! That Bane/Batman 2 pack looks awesome! 🙌 Thanks pare!!
Nice list. Can’t really argue with your choices, even though I don’t even own your #1 pick. It’s still a cool looking figure. Here’s my own list for 2024 so far. 5. Mr. Zsasz I know people will think I’m crazy, but I love Batman villains, and Zsasz is one I never thought we’d get. Especially the spot-on Norm Breyfogle inspired version McFarlane delivered. I know some people think it looks like crap, but it’s true to the source material, so I love it. 4. Green Lantern / Hal Jordan Gotta love a classic Hal Jordan Green Lantern. And the Silver-Age version is extra crispy classic. 3. Penguin Another spot-on comic accurate Batman villain. Definitely the best classic Penguin figure we’ve ever gotten. Nearly perfect. 2. Plastic Man Plas has been one of my favorite DC superheroes since I was a little kid. I had two of the Mattel SCCC figures, but I never thought I’d see him in the Multiverse line, especially in his classic, bare legged costume. I have two of this version as well. He’d be my number one if not for this next figure. 1. Detective Comics #27 Batman (1st Appearance) I have both the regular and Platinum versions and they are both awesome. And since it looks like the next Batman animated series (Caped Crusader) will feature the Dark Knight wearing a nearly identical version of this costume, the figure takes on a whole new meaning. It’s like getting a figure from the show several months early.
Honorable mentions: Wally West (Flash)- I just wish it would fit in more. It looks creepy, but it's a good representation of a cover of Wally. Plus it is a Wally figure. Kyle Rayner (okay a repaint but dammit I love this version of Kyle). Page Puncher Brainiac. Like your love for Superman, I love me the outlandish Brainiac that came from this wave. Just an absolute freaky figure. 5.) Azbats - Amazing figure. I just wish he had open claw hands and he'd skyrocketed to my #1. 4.) Mr. Freeze (TAS recolor) - Okay McFarlane got me with a recolor. Just I love Mr. Freeze from BTAS and this recolor is exceptional. 3.) Penguin - exceptional head sculpt and love the top portion. The figure surprised the living hell out of me how much I adore it. 2.) Batman (First Appearance) - Look I get the "it's Batman") but the wired cape makes me not put this figure down. Like between him, my Mafex Batman or Magneto. I keep changing the flow of the cape cause it's so much gosh darn fun. It's just I'll fool around with them once a week not daily like... 1.) Batgirl (Cassandra Cain) - Reuse like heck from prior Batgirl figures, but dammit it all. It's Cass and she's got one thing they don't: a wired cape. This figure is the bomb. So much so I bought freaking three of these damn things (one regular, one custom unmasked head, and one I "Frankensteined" with help from another to be more comic accurate). Every damn day on my free time I'll pose a version of this figure. The wired cape and head sculpt just do so much heavy lifting. Darkseid is probably gonna be my #1 whenever he's released. But that Bane/Batman two-pack, new Tim Drake, and (if it's to be believed) Question figure might sneak in or even dethrone my #1.
Dude first of all, thank you so much for sharing your picks!! And the reasoning for each one! 🙌 Dope list!! I just got Penguin recently and still gotta open it. But also Mr. Freeze is also on preorder so they may make their way into the top spots. But you’re right though, we still got Bane/Batman 2 pack and Darkseid coming out soon! Those might leapfrog into the top spots tbh. I also dig that you put Batgirl number 1! It is a dope figure to pose around and the wired cape definitely elevates the posing! Haha that’s awesome you bought 3 of them! Thanks again for sharing your list! 🙌
This is a solid top 5 not many people would had picked Batgirl I really respect that pick
Thanks bro!! Yeah, it’s a decent reuse but that wired cloth cape elevates it! 🙌
great list bro! I have to think about my list. So many great figures.
Great list man. Love the Knightsend Azrael so much and agree with you, the blue should have been the main release.
It is a nice figure! And for sure it should’ve been a main release, here’s hoping they do another run in the future! 🙌
Awesome list pare! Personally I'm loving the Batfleck Batman v Superman and the Bane from the Knightfall 2pack.

Oh man, yes! Batman TBATB DS was so good! That Plastic Man and catwoman level is iconic

Ghost of Krypton Supes is surprisingly impressive.
Solid pics, but there is another 6 months plus before is over. Will see what else is next.
