I think I see Ana de Armas - Blade Runner 2049 in the background.

That sculpt sort of disappointed based from prototype to final product. Does not match the beauty of the actress.
 
Mr. Freeze arrived the other day.
Nice figure, that neatly stayed in my office. I have the US 1 sheet for the Batman Mr. Freeze movie ‘SubZero’ on the wall.

I brought him home and put him with Bruce and the Bat

Since PopCultcha is taking 200 years to put this up, i decided to just buy it directly from Mondo.
 
I’m glad I jumped on here. I didn’t know Catwoman was even up for preorder!!
Ordered tonight.
I’m not sure i will ever display with the Selina head, but it’s nice to have.
 
Opened Catwoman today. Some really enjoyable things and some really frustrating things. She is a pain to pose with the ball joints on legs. Very hard to have her stand on her own, which seems to be a problem with every Bruce Timm inspired female figure I've owned. Crotch grabber is a poor choice for this figure.

Lots of personality and shelf presence, however! The highlighting really works on this figure. Hope they do a Batgirl.

Played around with some green screen photography for the first time, pardon the rough edges.

Couple other things to note:

1. The ball joints on the hands easily come apart at the seam. They can be snapped back into place easily enough. Best way to remove hands is to grab and pull from the end of the ball closest to her arm. Also make sure to pull perpendicular to the seam in the ball joint.

2. Getting some paint rub on the neck after switching out the sculpts several times. Biggest culprit seems to be the unmasked head. The paint rub is hidden under all of the sculpts, though.

HPGR_Thrawn's comment on the ball joints coming apart is exactly what happened to me when I tried to remove one of the hands. The figure is defintely hard to pose and the joints move easily. So you would definitely need to keep the stand to get some dynamic poses.
 
I called it quits starting with this Catwoman. While it's cool and stuff, MONDO is just not worth the price.
The quality is not up to par. I had paint scratches when I moved my Mr. Freeze hips.
 
Finally had a bit of time open up my BTAS black variant. I know the BTAS batmoble isn't 1/6 scale but I think it still looks good with the figure. It would be ******ing awesome if mondo made a 1/6 scale BTAS batmobile, day one preorder from me if they did.

Put the Cat on display today.
I think it works really well, and hope to see this line grow.

Of course, I’ll need a longer shelf...

Crotch grabbers look bad. On catwoman it looks downright pornographic ololololol. I am going to buy waist grabbers.
Nice display by the way
 
The stands on these aren't my favorites. I need to nab some generic stands that'll work before I order Catwoman. Mr. Freeze looks fine without it but Batman has tumbled more times that I can count.
