    Over a year has passed since McFarlane gave us the Wayne Manor Library Playset, yet at this time, there are still no figures to put in it, so I've taken matters into my own hands and created my own Bruce Wayne figure.
    What do you think of this custom? Please let me know in the comments.

    Lol like it. McFarlane factory, 8am the next day. "Get them heads swapped on Batman and Gordon".

    Looks good And Un masked Robin is going for hundreds on the aftermarket which is insane And yea that Gordon definitely looks more like TV Alfred even though He is supposed to be based on Comics Gordon.

    It seems funny to release a playset and not the essential figures to go with it at the same time of its release.
    That head swap works really well.

    Working for McFarlane for free, eh Dean? 😂 I have a feeling we might see that very same Bruce Wayne released in a future wave. Perfect reuse.
    Bruce honestly turned out great. And will be a good solution should we not get an actual one from McFarlane. A+ mod.

    If they are required to make a Batman for every wave, I don’t understand why a Bruce Wayne figure wouldn’t count. Bruce Wayne is Batman, just not in costume. And instead of getting a Dick Grayson we get “Wax Robin”, which is just a standard Robin figure that looks like it survived an orgy. It makes no sense.

    Head swap worked really well. Gotta be some preppy action figures around for a bash kit Dick Grayson. DC brought out those 8" Mego-type Dick Grayson figures a few years back - surely McFarlane will bring him out, too.
    Guessing the "New Adventures" line gets the Classic seal of approval because there was a bit of crossover between the show and cartoon thx to Adam West & Burt Ward.
    Was a big fan of both when I was a kid. Recently bought the cartoon series on iTunes. Holds up surprisingly well. Goofy as, of course. Bat-Mite just screams Saturday morning cartoon haha...

    I’m gonna tell you right now that the Mcfarlane shills will come out whining if they haven’t done so. But McFarlane has his head up his ass that he has so much going on that he can’t focus on one thing to give the people what they want. For example I have since become a huge spawn fan that I am shocked that he hasn’t release the latest figures from his new issue for example gunslinger new look, and unmasked gunslinger spawn, improved articulation on HAUNT, update THE CURSE so and so on. What I have done like you made my own figure with head swaps look at my community

    I used the Bruce Wayne head on the marvel legends magneto and professor x 2 pack suited body and the dick Grayson on the marvel legends Spiderman homecoming Peter Parker body for the Wayne manor library playset and years ago I stuck the Alan Napier head from the Mattel dc multiverse Alfred on the movie masters dark knight rises Alfred body for a 66 Alfred! Only minor drilling and filling on the heads for it all to work!

    Good job. MacFarlane toys should be m as king s lit more figures and playsets. I’ve tried hard to lobby turn to mske a mad hatter figure, Minstel, click king and others..they should make Gordon’s office snd batgirls revolving g wall secret alcove. I even modeled that last year and presented it to them but they weren’t interested. They should also make Chief O’Hara and Barbara Gordon figure too.

      @@AllThings80s theres an old saying when the head of a fish stinks, it stinks all the way down to the tail. Thats Todd McFarlane Toys in a nutshell. I wasnt much impressedd with the batcave set either. when i was a kid, i had the Mego batcave and that was a far better playset than the Todd mcFarlane batcave set. I wish they had made a much more decent batcave playset like Haslab had done with their new star Wars cantina playset.
