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

I don't have these figures in hands so I can only speak for what I see from the video. I see bad stuff that make me angry but I also see pretty good things. Bane looks awesome, I really can't see any problem with him, looks fantastic! (I will just change his Venom tube with a translucent green one to recall the Kenner figure xD) And Croc too. Looks very good, way better than I've thought. The only problem is that abs crunch... It doesn't work at all and ruin the sculpt.. Whatever, generally in-hands things are better. I hope at least.. :D Positive vibes, yeah xDDD
 
Re: DC Collectibles doing Batman The Animated Series figures!!!!!

I got the set today! Sadly Mr freeze's accessories are all one color and Ivy looks ... bad :( Head is too big, wrong hair and her hair are not made out of soft rubber but solid plastic like the rest of the body.

Thanks for the pic man :) Can I ask you about Freeze shoulders and elbows? Do they move without "chomping" the plastic around the joint? In the various presentation pics at ToyFair I've noticed Freeze elbows was very messed up... can you tell me if they're good quality or if they suck? Thanks as always for your time :)

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

I've never liked the way Ivy looked in TAS. She was always pretty homely. It's actually pretty challenging to find any screen shots of her from the show that are flattering. It's no wonder she had to resort to love potions.

This figure might be an attempt to correct her unpleasant portrait but it still manages to capture her aesthetically challenging qualities.

meanwhile excuse me if I work on your picture but is the first time I see her face well.. I've tried to do a quick photoshop xDD

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

Ivy was one of my most anticipated figures. This is so depressing :(

Here's hoping we get a poison ivy expressions pack with fixed colors and MANY alternate heads.

lol the one on the left looks like she making one of those stupid "duckface" girls like to do in selfies only she's not trying stick her butt out in some ridiculous "cheesecake" pose.

Nice photoshop on the eyes on the right one.

Well it took 2 versions to get TNBA Ivy right. She looked like a stroke victim in her single release and in the girls pack she looks flawless.

Yeah I know and I swear they do little things like that on purpose just so people who bought the first version have a reason to rebuy the figure as a single or vice verse in TNBA Ivy's case once it's corrected.
 
Re: DC Collectibles doing Batman The Animated Series figures!!!!!

They just have such issues with painting eyes. BTAS Joker's aren't pointy enough. Bullock's are too thick as are Lois'. The first TNBA Babs were white. Now this. My opinion of DCC is a lot lower than a few years ago.
 
Re: DC Collectibles doing Batman The Animated Series figures!!!!!

Guys I'm sorry, I finished work late so I wasn't able to take many shots but here is my quick summary. *This is just my honest option and I know those are just toys :)

Good news is that except Ivy they all look great! Montoya is SUPERB on every level; articulation, sculpt, accessories - really solid figure! One issue I have with my one is that one leg is longer that the other... still she can be displayed nicely but that's minus 1 point DCC ;)

Mr. Freeze looks great and the articulation is really clever. He has almost the same articulation as other figures as they are using soft rubber for the parts on his elbows and arms so well done for that! Downside for me is the helmet that appears to be too long :/ (and the mentioned before single color accessories)
Oh and Freeze's boots are way too big for this body, it does look a bit funny :p

Bane is great - no complains with the figure BUT his arms are too wide so he cannot hold the dumbbell properly...

Croc is also great and even hes face doesn't bother my at all in person, looks very accurate.

I will not mention Ivy anymore as she looks bad! Plus side is that it is only the hair as the sculpt of her face, body is very good. When I removed the hair she does look better!

I will post the photos tomorrow but any question, let me know!

I thought both figures were the same. Any pic where I can see the differences? Cheers!

The only significant difference was the paint job on her eyes. In the original version they looked like they were rolling to the back of her head. She looked more like Poison Marijuany than Poison Ivy. Otherwise the two figures are the same.

Ha ha ha! In the first release ivy was planting weed, then. Cheers!

Actually the paint for her skin tone is different too. The original was a lot more green, the GNO pack Ivy is a lot more white.
