Mars Toys 1/6 Batman Forever Riddler

Funny. I saw those FB pics and thought the opposite. They look really good.

Two-Face and Riddler will look great together.

Missed opportunity not having a Diamond and scope for Riddler too. Then we could recreate this in a display,

Riddler comes with the loupe (Magnifier*1), though BigBreda didn't know what it was.



But the only diamond seems to be with Two-Face.

The fit of the body suit looks really good. Idk what body they used but they got the look down proper.

That zipper in the back is a huge eye sore tho.

You think so? That hatless head doesn’t really do it fo me.

I actually agree the open mouth isn't a great likeness but unlike a lot of folks, I actually really like the tongue out look and I think that one plus jacket is how I'll have him displayed.

Bowler with tongue out is the look I’m going with. Looks just like him.

He scales great with Batman and Robin. MARS did a great job.

Took some screencaps from Justin's review:

Tounge out sculpt, cane under the armpit without the jacket. That's prolly how I'll rock with it.

The jacket is nice but I like the lanky look of Jim portraying this character. Always seemed like good casting to me.

Tracking says he's reached the post office... but the actual USPS tracking service is down right now.

Regarding pose, I still can't decide on hat-on or hat-off. I really like both jacket-on and jacket-off looks as well. Too many .... decisions!

The tongue-sculpt is the winner of the two for me, butttt... I'm not in love with either, if I'm being honest. The Sensation figure posted in the Two-Face thread has a much better likeness (and is MUCH more costly), but I feel Mars has the better tailoring on the outfit (and more accurate color, shoes, etc.)

Yeah, neither sculpts are "wowzers". I just can't **** with the one that is blatenly off.

Annoys me I have to settle for the sculpt I originally didn't agree with adding to begin with. Just to have a figure on display that actually calls back to it's source material with the correct likeness.

This ain't it.

Close, but no Cigar.

Justin has really toned down his enunciation.

If he is anything like most new parents, probably just sleep deprived lol

You actually listen to his regurgitation? I mute that tool. Skip to the parts of the the review I'm interested in. Watch in silence.

In peace..

I despise his blinding white, flash bang background with studio lights blasting it out of orbit. Ugh.

I like his reviews. I didn't care for the sideshow barker voice he put on that kept getting more exaggerated over the years, so I'm happy to see him settle in to his own voice. The Toys Wonderland period was definitely a dark period too.

I mean, he reviews everything so there is a consistency over time that allows me to manage expectations.

He's robotic. His delivery and presentation is the same, nearly word for word - every time throughout ANY review.

Just replace one figure name with another. Same "review" essentially.

He doesn't review ****. He show cases them.

Offers nothing in the way of "personality".

Just the same robotic Justine voice over, more or less. I understand WATCHING his stuff. I definitely do not understand listening to the stuff he has to say, tho.

That is odd to me.

Justin is pretty good at posing the figures I have to say.

Mine says it's being delivered Saturday.

Idk how yalls mail service providers are treating you wherever you are. But around here, USPS are God-like.

UPS/FedEx have consistently failed me time and time again.

Since I moved from one city to the neighboring one, USPS have been ace. Before, it was a crap shoot every time.
