Great question. Target and their difficult preorders. Ridiculous. *Raises Hand* Did not know you had to approve a delay and lost my Justice League Red and Blue Superman. Oh well, was an impulse buy because I was jacked up at the time about the movie. Still, terrible practice by Target. It feels underhanded. "We screwed up and offered what we couldn't deliver, so maybe if we trick people into canceled orders, they'll blame themselves and not Target Corp." My entire Elite Legends 9 preorder was canceled, and part needed delay approvals it didn't let me approve or notify me of.

They'll cancel it anyways even if you approve the new date. I've had so much stuff canceled from target this year. And they like to cancel stuff that is on shelves.

So far mine hasn’t been canceled yet. Every month since I preordered it I make sure the cash is in my account to cover it. So when they run their “hold” charge every month there’s no issue with that. Because they will cancel it if there’s a problem when they run the monthly hold charge. And I have had to approve it twice now. Although this time they haven’t given me a new ship date yet.

Pretty dang cool, but all three heads seem a bit off. Hopefully the final product is a bit more accurate for each (especially Burt Ward/Robin).

Looks like they’ll have less articulation than his 7” figures. The hips in the pic are t-crotch. And single jointed knees and elbows.

I hope this '66 line goes deeper than Mattel's did, but I don't have high hopes.

Oh and I forgot to mention the McFarlane DC Multiverse Dark Father BAF set is out. I saw the remains of it in another collector’s hands this morning at the Riverdale NJ Target. He had the Robin and Superman. I want the Dark Father figure, but I am not to high on the figures in the set. I just wish McFarlane would move from the Metal figures already and give us some SA, BA, New 52 & Rebirth figure.

Darkfather set has been out for about 4 or more weeks here. Bought them at target and canceled big bad order. I kept batman and darkfather, my son gets robin and the Glenn danzig superman. And daughter gets wonder woman. Works out perfect for these build a figure sets that I dontvwantv3 of the figures.
Speaking of build a figure, mcfarlane is sending my son a bane since the one we got is a pos.
Sucks that I got to buy a John Cena toy, because my son wants that king shark.

The Darkfather Batman with guitar is the same as the Death Metal Batman w scythe? The 66 Batman line can be promising, Joker is a must have. Supposedly there will be an unmasked Batman, Riddler, Surfs Up Batman and Surfs up Joker according to toynewsi.

Not a figure but Hershey updated their DC wrappers. Last year it was a set of 7. Now they are a set of 10. The box I saw was Batman, Wonder Woman and Green Lantern. All the WW were broke though.

I saw and held the Bane BAF yesterday at a convention. He's got some serious weight to him. The vendor told me it was a pain to get the legs on and/or to stay on. Hopefully Todd irons that out in time, as the Hasbro BAFs are almost always easy assembly and stay together fine.

Never bought a Multi-verse figure, but the Snyder Cut figures are tempting. Does the line generally pose well?

Bought a coat from VCToys for my Mezco Punk Joker. He looked naked without one.
