Re: DC Collectibles doing Batman The Animated Series figures!!!!!

Okay, I just bought Zatanna, Gordon, and Ra's Al Ghul. Wonderful figures. The release date on these things change everytime I check the thread so...the next figures are Clayface, first suit batman, firefly, and Harley? Is that correct or has it changed again?
 
Re: DC Collectibles doing Batman The Animated Series figures!!!!!

Hasn't changed yet as far as we know. I have noticed various release dates at different cites for figures from the same wave. Like I mentioned before one shop has Clayface listed for 2017 yet the other figures are listed for this year. I have no idea where they get their release dates from so take it all with a grain of salt. The Clayface wave was supposed to arrive by the end of this month but now some places have it now listed as the end of Nov. 😒
 
Re: DC Collectibles doing Batman The Animated Series figures!!!!!

Yeah they honor the price your order was placed with.


And the clayface wave is on the shopping list for the week after this coming Wednesday.

Diamond Previews contradicting itself. Interesting.
 
Re: DC Collectibles doing Batman The Animated Series figures!!!!!

Clayface better not get pushed back. I've waited over a year for his release.
 
Re: DC Collectibles doing Batman The Animated Series figures!!!!!

Well, it either was...or it wasn't. We'll find out when they update the shipping list. Might be kinda telling, though, that no online reviewer has had the figures from this wave yet.
 
Re: DC Collectibles doing Batman The Animated Series figures!!!!!

Seriously, guys, all the delays this year are disrespectful to the fans. And pathetic.

Last year, it was completely understandable, as there were all those quality control issues and everything - they litteraly had to switch factories and redo all figs.

But this year?? JUST NO! There is no apparent reason to delay all figures like this. But if there is a reason, WHY not tell the fans?
Seriously, it's not a simple delay of a week or two, which would be OK. It's been SEVERAL delays of SEVERAL months. And NO word on why.

They are treating us like a bunch of idiots, as we most likely will "accept" it because we want these figs.

At the rate the shippings are going this year, expect Ivy and Freeze to be postponed to 2018. And I mean it.

I'm so beyond PISSED, I haven't even looked/stared at my current figs, as the very thought of all the other figures being postponed just kills me. I just want to forget I collect this line.
 
Re: DC Collectibles doing Batman The Animated Series figures!!!!!

For starters, I'll go out on a limb and say that the Clayface wave, with the exception of Firefly, possibly, isn't delayed. If it were, it wouldn't be showing up on next week's solicits. Outside of that, I'll take whatever delays they give us. The quality of these figures seems to improve with each release, which leaves me happy, and delays give my wallet a break, which also makes me happy. Moral of the story: Can't speak for everyone, but I'm content.:lol
 
Re: DC Collectibles doing Batman The Animated Series figures!!!!!

kudo for DC the face sculpt ,articulation and balance is getting better and better with each release.

WGD, mate they are just toys, nothing more than a luxury item made for enjoyment. I would not let the delays get to you so much that they make you feel ill or mad. If they do then it might be time to reconsider this hobby :lol

We have had delays before and there will be more to come. It sucks but that is just part of the game.

This is what happens when most things are being made in only a few parts of the world to be shipped to every corner of the developed world. Not to mentioned they are also not know for being the most stable and reliable industrial working areas to start with, factories close and new one ones open at an alarming rate in China for example. Add in the fun of international shipping by sea and the various elements involved with that and delays are bound to keep happen. Would be nice to have firm dates of course but DCC probably do not have 100% confirmation themselves. Not a professional look if they had to keep announcing release dates only to change them again weeks later.

These figures will or have already been made, they will be shipped, and we will receive them. End of the day that is what it is all about. Once you get them you always forget the delays and time spent waiting.
 
Re: DC Collectibles doing Batman The Animated Series figures!!!!!

Anyone getting upset (very upset) over the delays needs to take a breather
DCC wants to make money too, they're not just delaying making money for the fun of it, they want these in our hands as much as they want money in their pockets...
It's fun to be excited about this line but try not to let how excited you are ruin it for you, too

If its delays are caused by corrections or improvements then they can take all the time they need. I understand Rebirth and DC movies have taken the lead in importance. But we have already been told that this is one of DC's strongest lines.
 
Re: DC Collectibles doing Batman The Animated Series figures!!!!!

I doubt WGD is losing sleep over that **** lol. He's just venting his frustration here. Not like he's locked in his house , depressed, hitting f5 every 3 seconds on diamond, while simultaneously throwing darts at a photo of Kevin lololol. I have to agree though, the delays are rather annoying. I'll be happy as long as they don't bombard us with too much in the same week.

Also, be on the lookout for a deluxe Batwing announcement in a few months. Remote controlled with a top speed of mach 1
 
Re: DC Collectibles doing Batman The Animated Series figures!!!!!

For anyone who's been collecting any of the diamond statues, I recently found out about Black Canary (I may be late here lol)
Really hope to get her and Huntress out of this line one day.

Re: DC Collectibles doing Batman The Animated Series figures!!!!!

Sweet just in time for the all important 31st Anniversary of TDKR

I wonder if it will come out along side "The Christmas with the Joker" - Easter edition figure :rotfl

I was just about to write something very similar. It's not like DC have cancelled the line. And we have started to get some really top quality figures. This will all be for the best...
 
Re: DC Collectibles doing Batman The Animated Series figures!!!!!

I have every figure from the first wave to the Scarecrow wave except for Roxy. Totals 20 figures and I think I want to sell them. What would be a reasonable asking price?
 
Re: DC Collectibles doing Batman The Animated Series figures!!!!!

Man so so far how many new figures have we gotten in this line in 2016? Five?

I would only REALLY be ticked if it got delayed this long and the quality was crap... if you're taking your time releasing something, it should be for its improvement
