I had that poster on my door for awhile! You just brought back my Bane nostalgia. I'd prefer the non Venom version though, but I'd still buy the Jim Balent or Graham Nolan Knightfall version. I preferred Bane more when he got over his addiction in Vengeance of Bane 2, and went on to work with Ra's in Bane of the Demon.

Smart, cunning Bane is best Bane, period. The steroid monster never did anything for me, but the kid growing up in a prison? The boy with a knife in his teddy bear? His origin was raw, violent, scary and brilliant. Shame the New 52 portrays him more as a brute. Here's to hoping REBIRTH changes that.

I already thought you were a great guy, but anyone that shows Bane love is a good friend of mine! I was very disappointed what was done with Bane in the New 52, Batman TAS, and Arkham games. I really hope Rebirth restores the character I cared so much about growing up.

These One:12 figures are nothing like their Mortal Kombat figures. These are closer to Hot Toys and Side Show 1/6 figures than they are to MK and the hasbro/mattel stuff. Lots of articulation, cloth, detail, swap out hands/heads, tons of accessories, stands, collector boxes etc...

That is why they cost so much more.

The only complaint I have with BvS Superman is the pattern in the material looks too chunky – I know it's 1/12, but they've done a good job on Batman's costume.

Likewise mate! Yeah, I was severely dissapointed with Arkham, but at least he was portrayed right in Origins. As for REBIRTH, well, I really hope it's good. I've been looking to abandon Marvel (my pull-list came today, and I couldn't even read the whole issue of Doctor Strange- it's that bad, and I say that as a Strange fan), and REBIRTH seems like the perfect opportunity.

Arkham was weird with Bane...why make him the basis for ALL of Asylum's boss fights? City tried to make him smart I think, with betraying Batman in the end.

Origins did a fantastic job with Bane though, I liked that.

 

[GasparZizou]

I'm not convinced with these, I don' know.

I guess Mezco really did spoil me with that TDKR Batman, they captured the essence of that one soooo well, and these are off in various aspects.

I like everything about Batman except the cape, easy fix I guess.

But Supes, the face is funny with those dumbo ears, the cape doesn't look good, the suit looks chunky.

We'll see I guess but I'm still sticking with the Mafex.

I'm thinking maybe if I let these first waves pass Mezco will get better at it and when they do the JL roster/TDKR SUpes they will be better.

Here's some new info:



Lot more Marvel characters in the Works

Trying to arch-villians to pair up with heroes--no obscure guys like MODOK

Figures will be improved; these are just prototypes

Cap will be armored up/chain mail instead of just cloth

More Dawn of Justice Figures

Punisher has a modern variant coming

They will put more effort in fleshing out the Batman Universe because Mezy's the biggest Batman fan-- They will get to villains like Harley Quinn and such

All characters will have variants if they make sense

No Fox characters so no Wolverine or Doom

 

[GasparZizou]

Cool, thanks for sharing

 

[Spark Extractor]

In the video they also mention more vehicles than just the Lawmaster in the future. Sounds cool.

Thanks! The only modern Marvel stuff I read was Daredevil, Captain America, X-Men, Punisher, and Deadpool. I really liked the Night of the Living Deadpool stuff, but didn't care for the main series. I don't know, I just feel like Deadpool became kind of an annoying punching bag after the Joe Kelly stuff. He was pretty messed up dude, but he could play the alpha male when he wasn't going through his mental crises. Punisher wasn't bad, but kind of dull. X-Men, I couldn't handle the decompressed snarky melodrama. Captain America was fine, but I think Cap was being written as a very boring character. Or is Captain America a truly boring character? I forgot why I liked him in the first place (your description of Nick Fury seemed far more interesting). Daredevil, we talked about (I think it's too cutesy and lazily written—wasting time with the outing garbage and reminding us how bad things were. Mark Waid said that he wanted to make it light hearted because past Daredevil made him want to drink, but at least those writers didn't whine about it every issue and reuse the same stink'n device...sorry I'll stop ). Oh, Nightcrawler was good!

I really haven't checked out much with the New 52. I really liked Batman Inc and the Azzarrelo Wonder Woman that I read, but everything else felt like a mess with 5 year gap and the referencing old stuff and then retconning. They have so much New 52 stuff at my library, and I don't even want to read it. Taking away the marriage from Arthur and Mera makes no sense, doing away with Wally and claiming that brat is Wally made me sad (I love Wally), Darkseid being a stupid video game boss, shoving in Simon Baz and then dropping him was a joke, Harper Row/Blue-bird is my Jar Jar Binks, putting Superman and Wonder Woman together hurts me (They're relationship to me was like **** Grayson and Donna Troy; don't put them together), Impulse—one of the most loveable and cute characters ever was made into a snot nosed brat, Jason's new origin being set up by the Joker, all the villains being lame serial killers with daddy issues, Tim Drake being trashed and made into a brat, Joker being an omnipotent teleporting ninja, my beloved Starfire turned into an absolute slut, Barbara being a whiner with her magic healing powers, **** being an annoying playboy that stole Tim Drake's qualities, etc. I can go on and on. I guess I did read more than I thought!

I'm looking forward to REBIRTH!

Thanks! The only modern Marvel stuff I read was Magneto, Daredevil, Captain America, X-Men, Punisher, and Deadpool. I really liked the Night of the Living Deadpool stuff, but didn't care for the main series. I don't know, I just feel like Deadpool became kind of a wimpy punching bag after the Joe Kelly stuff. He was pretty messed up dude, but he could play the alpha male when he wasn't going through his mental crises. Punisher wasn't bad, but kind of dull. What I read of Magneto by Cullen Bunn was very entertaining, but I don't even understand the character anymore. Make up your mind, dude! X-Men, I couldn't handle the decompressed snarky melodrama. Captain America was fine, but I think Cap was being written as a very boring character. Or is Captain America a truly boring character? Perhaps, I just liked him for the villains. I don't know anymore. Daredevil, we talked about (I think it's boring). Oh, Nightcrawler was good!

I'm looking forward to REBIRTH!

I've tried tons of Marvel's new titles post NOW! but, to be honest, there aren't many that I truly enjoyed. Most I followed out of devotion to the characters. With DC, I tried about the same amount of titles but, again, nothing really came out of it. Honestly, I'm just waiting to see what REBIRTH is all about. If that also doesn't manage to catch my interest, well, I think it's time to call it quits on the Big 2, apart from 2 or 3 titles. Indies are doing a much better job anyways.

Do you know why they're doing Rebirth? If they're doing it for money reasons, I don't think it's going to work. You're not going to get a lot of people to spend $4 on part of a story that takes 5-10 minutes to read and not even knowing whether it's going end well.

Who knows? I've heard tons of rumours from BleedingCool but, honestly, nobody knows. It's a wait and see scenario. Some say it's a return to Pre-Nu52 continuity. Others say it's yet another reboot. Others say it's just a relaunch ala NOW! and All-New Now!

Sorry, everyone for getting off topic! I think there's a thread for this, and if there isn't we can make one. I'm sure we'll talk about this in the future!

It would be really sad that they would retcon the new52 out of complains of people who didn't read the new 52.

Most of it was great and it was better than the state DC was in before the reboot, all of the big characters had fantastic runs, Flash and WW had like 40+ issues of instant-classic stuff, like not a single weak issue, that's pretty crazy, didn't get into many of the smaller characters and side kicks, I was never into them, but even the bigger ones like **** got freaking great stuff.

I reaaaally hope they don't go full pandering mode, DC has been doing great in spitting in the face of those sjw douchebags.
