MAFEX Batman v Superman: DOJ Action Figures

[ShadowGuardian]

Damn, BBTS STILL doesn't have Armored Batman in stock. Wasn't it officially released at the end of September??

I hope it's not something like BBTS is waiting on Wonder Woman to be released to get her and Bats shipped from Japan to their warehouse. That would really suck and it would make me regret going with BBTS this time around.

Unless I pay the higher ship cost to get WW sent from Japan, I probably won't have her in hand until after Christmas.

I noticed that NY actually has a lot of Mafex figures listed for a November 30 release date. Makes me think we still have a chance at getting WW earlier in the month.

Speaking of WW, does that new trailer look awesome or what? Do guys think we'll get some Mafex figures for her solo movie?

Looks like some Mafex Batman v Superman and Bank Robber Joker bootlegs are showing up on eBay. Anyone seen one in person yet?

 

[ShadowGuardian]

Oh great. Is this the first time Mafex figures have gotten bootlegs?

Hate it when this happens. I want authentic figures and I don't like being screwed over.

If you buy from a reputable dealer, you have nothing to worry about

Not always. There are scumbags out there who will try to pass it off as the real deal.

I'm not seriously concerned or anything but still.

Currently it's kinda obvious. They are $24.99 with free shipping from China and have no box. That is plenty of red flags

Finally opened mine up and took some pics!

Does the armored batman really look that silver? I've seen some photos where it looks silver and some where it looks slightly gunmetal as it should look for film accuracy. Just wondering if it's a lighting thing or if the QC is a little off.

Thanks in advance!

It's probably a light thing. I am just getting into photography with a real camera and I'm having a hard time with it. I apologize.

I wish I had known that when I got serious about collecting (about a year ago) and was first introduced to imports like Figma and Figuarts. I have a couple figures that I thought I just got a super awesome deal on because I didn't even realize real looking knock offs were a thing.

No worries at all. Not knocking the photos and great pics actually! I totally hear ya with regards to using a real camera and getting used to it.

But yeah, is it that silver in person?

In person it's in between the silver and gun metal. I'll try to take a better pic this weekend for ya if you'd like.

But yeah, it seems like any decent shots I get, it's purely by accident.

The good thing about the knockoffs is that theres an ever so slight chance that they joints msy actually be better quality than the orginal. It's not unheard of.


Also they'll make great bases for customs, especially supes for an import styled mcu vision

agree with the above but for me more important would be donor parts for my crappy broken ones on my original expensive superman ,can find bats listed but no luck finding a supes

Im sure he'll pop up eventually, the face is probably giving them trouble. Batman's is mostly concealed so hes out first

She's also in stock on Nippon Yasan. The wait is almost over!!

Edit: also looks like she's on back order already from Amiami.

Edit 2: In stock on HLJ but low stock. Thank goodness for preorder!

Ended up ordering from HLJ. Cheaper than Amiami and not on back order. [emoji16]

I've never ordered from either store before though. I originally was going to order from BBTS but I don't want to have to wait for it to arrive at their warehouse, and then ship out to me. Plus it seems like I've had more luck not being hit with customs when it's coming from Asia.

HLJ is pretty reliable yeah? From what I've gathered it's most popular among my fellow collectors along with Amiami.
