The 5 Points of Stabbing was fantastic. I would love a Cyborg figure, but the Aquaman is not who I’d ever buy. I have the Endless Winter and did a head swap, so I’m golden on Aquaman.

I immediately pre ordered this figure because the Flashpoint Paradox movie made me fall deeper in love with DC and it's characters, but I really do wish he would have came with a different head, other than that the figure would have been 10/10, I'm hoping the rest of the wave is better and Cyborg looks awesome at the end of it.

It's got a lot of great things going on but I can't get past the head. Love the colors and the trident holster. Some have swapped out with bearded Aquaman head. That looks good.

@5POAFigureReviews Жыл бұрын

Thanks Mason! I have thought about making a discussion video on it because I have a lot of thoughts. But here is a quick overview: - Batman and Bane are fine. - Two-Face body is good but the likeness is off and the lack of accessories is felt. - The Scarecrow head is absolutely horrendous. - Joker's face is too smushed, the coat is too bright, and the lack of paint on the shirt, tie, and coat lining bums me out, but I love the money stack. - Rumor is Bane is going to be released as a Gold Label with his coat. Makes me think I can get away with not getting Scarecrow and hoping there will be a normal head. - I want Begins Batman and Selina, but Todd scarcely expands on waves like this so I am predicting what we're getting is what we're getting.

I absolutely want that cyborg build a figure but I only like Flashpoint. I don't love it and don't need 4 figures that I can only use as flashpoint versions. Hopefully they go on clearance at target for $10-$15, than I'd buy them all and likely sell all the regular figures.

Bought Aquaman last night on clearance at target for $12.49. Project Superman doesn’t look exciting at all. Flashpoint Wonder Woman will probably go on clearance like most of the other, McFarlane highly stylized Wonder Woman figures (Although disturbing, it would be cool if she came with a Mera head) I’m speculating that flashpoint wonder woman and project superman figures will also go on clearance eventually. They just don’t look like exciting figures, but will be worth clearance price for the rest of the Cyborg pieces… and custom fodder. They’re really gonna have to knock it out of the park with the mystery fourth figure.
