If that's how the cape attaches, that doesn't look good.
But, yeah, I agree just the on sculpt with today's digital sculpting advances you should be able to make something look at as least good as something from decades years ago. Because that just does not look as good as the Kenner figure. Seriously, how can looking as good as Kenner's 38 year old sculpts be so hard. Nothing has really matched them.You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion.

You decide to investigate... and you never return...Comment

Good news everyone. I've seen better pics of Superman. The figure is maybe a bit taller than vintage SP but close enough. The cape does clip around the neck like the vintage figures. Looks much nicer with the cape on right. The Batwing vehicle has also been found. Judging by the shelf tags in the pics it looks like these are hitting walmart.You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing.

$10 for the figures and $20 for the vehicles is pretty damn good in today's times. A kid could get a batman figure and the Batwing and it would be around the price for a !:12th figure. I don't like the weird eyes on superman but also i know what they are going for.(and Todd really hasn't raised prices on his figures the past couple years).Comment

Saw a picture of Batman. Don't know how to link it. Umm, his head looks a little weird. The figure has the pouch belt and the modern bat insignia without the oval. Dark blue and grey colors. The card art is modern. Not retro. The figure is not terrible or great. It's fine. Not as good as the original SP figure.You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing.

Toynewsi confirms the second series as John Stewart, Flash and Batman who Laughs. They also mirror the pictures that are going around.
There are some real head scratching choices going on with this retro line, in my opinion. It makes no sense to make them slightly bigger. It makes no sense to use modern designs. Like hush Batman over SP style guide or the inferior new 52 Darksied redesign over Kirby's icon design. There is also including the grim dark to parody level Batman who laughs who doesn't belong anywhere near Super Powers or a retro line.You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing.

My guess is McFarlane will include some form of Batman or Bat Family character in every wave of these. Hopefully more classic design versions over the new design garbage. You're right Werewolf... that Batman who Laughs or any of the other modern dark DC garbage has no business in this retro line. I don't mind the Hush Batman though that version wouldn't be my first choice. I won't buy any characters based on New 52 or beyond that point.Comment
