I hope a 2nd wave appear with WW, GA, Cheetah, Despero.
What I like most about this set is that it goes back to the ingredient which has been missing in McFarlane’s later waves: fun. Even if they’re a pass for the average collector, it’s still good to see these types of figures. Great review and thanks
That Superman face look hit 😂
I got the whole wave. I'm 100% planning on just taking all the effects off and putting some new vinyl stickers on for the emblems. The thing I can't get over is how this is all the best builds for each respective character in some of the best coloring we've had
My feelings exactly.
I belive that's the coolest Darkseid so far I bought them just to build it and don't regret it at all
Great review dude, I am loving this wave! I ordered two so I could try to remove some of the shading though the logos are bitmapped.
Love these figures. I know there will be variants with another paint and deco, but these have the 16bits charm.
I picked up Batman & Superman at my local GameStop and The Flash #1 comic version in a Buy 2 get 1 free deal last night. I Love Darksied and think this is a good way to get set of Justice League figures with a free Darksied to round 😁. Good video….also hate the heads on most these figures but Aquaman’s hair is Magnificent 😂
If anything I'm picking up this wave to have custom fodder. The superman, while ugly, is a good way of getting a hold of the Earth-2 buck and I have a spare action comics 1000 headsculpt that the mullet hair would look great on. That, plus a repaint and bam, instant 90's mullet supes
I don't know that Superman with that Quagmire chin. They should finish with the roster of Injustice game first.
I pre-ordered Flash, but that's all. I'm going to try to remove the pixilated paint from the red parts and smooth out the edges of the lightning bolt on his chest.
Any idea what I should use to get rid of the pixel paint I did the same thing and got flash
Oh damn they’re actually wiring the bottom of the capes now too! That’s REALLY good for posability! It’s how I make all my capes too. Mafex has also started wiring the bottom edge of the cape which is such a relief because the capes pose really awkwardly otherwise with wires only on the 2 sides. The problem with mcfarlane is still the fabric choice, and the thickness of the wire they use
@@horsiememmo in theory, but for this Supes it just doesn’t work well
@ yep that’s what I meant haha, good to see Mcfarlane try, but there are other things they need to fix to make it work. Bottom line is though - wired capes need to be wired on all 3 sides (as long as the other factors are also kept in check) for it to be the best 😁
Love ur vids! This set blows, thanks for showing it off, I definitely am passing on this wave
Going to wait to pick these up at Ollie’s or Ross.
Nice review. Now, after I see this wave, I may have to get it now.
Saw the Batman and Aquaman in person. Didn't help. At all. Like you said, cool idea and that's about it, especially with the bizarre head sculpts on Aquaman and Supes.
Thanks for this! I'm still kinda glad I picked up the Flash figure. I'm still holding out for a 90's shiny suit, white eyed Wally and a Walter West figure.
Awesome video!
Getting the flash to have a flash in my justice league shelf. It’s pretty close to perfect, I can wait for an upgrade
I kinda like the figures ngl
I feel like i’m always in the minority with these thing’s lol. Feel like there’s a certain charm with these. There not perfect clearly but they are unique enough to stand out in the collection. I’m 50/50 atm but it’s very tempting.
I think they look cool i only got the flashb
@ again there’s a certain charm with them. Definitely not everyone’s cup of tea but i don’t hate them nor making these out to be a bigger deal then they actually are.
These all look much better in hand, which is often the case with McFarlane. Thanks for the review.
Great review! Kinda just want the Darkseid 🤔 EBay here I come!
@@wingerton u in the USA?
@ yepers
Damn that darkseid is sick
I would’ve loved this head sculpt on the digital Aquaman. We got early in the year I think… Like a second head. Instead of that water, spirit, person creature.

Weird wave. The standout is the flash ⚡️
Wouldn't mind getting that whole wave. But that Flash is a must have for me.
That is indeed my ultimate superman not as it is. I removed the cell shade added a decal for the symbol and used the new gold label superman cape and head and that makes the best superman. So far 😊. And this. Mullet. Head. Goes great with the regeneration suit superman
Great review! I get the idea and like the creativity, but ultimately, not for me. I can see where others would love it, though. Like you said, fully dependent on if it’s your cup of tea or not.
@@JustBSingProductions this is the VEGEMITE of DC Multiverse waves. You won’t get that if ur not Aussie 😂
@@DCMultiCollectorI’m not Aussie, but I have had Vegemite. And yeah…I get it! 🤣
I didn’t know this game existed until this wave showed up. I watched some gameplay videos, and I have to say, I think I would have enjoyed it if I had discovered it back in the day. Though, to be fair, I was only 3 when the game was released.
I really dig the figures. I lowkey want this wave, though my favorite of all of them has to be The Flash (since he’s Wally) and that Superman, as he’s just a step closer to the definitive ‘90s look. Minus the pixel shading, of course.
you need to look at them from a distance to appreciate this wave. I put it in a pixelated diorama and its amazing
I wish someone can do a Superman head swap with shorter hair in that Superman body
I was tossing up between this and the stand alone darkseid. I do like this look and such but i would have liked if they could like add a second head to it for the laser eyes and possibly extra hands for the pointing and such. However i know they going just for how he was in the video game. Thanks for your comparison. Would be getting the stand alone though only for what i stated. Appreciate the video
@@icemanff23 I really think the standalone is the way to go. The entry cost for this dude is too high and even then you miss out on the extra head and hands etc
@DCMultiCollector amazon right now has the stand alone for cheap and I also the BAF ones. So a big review watching session for me before I pull the trigger. Going to need to sand off the peg for the emblem and just paint over. My darkseid right now is the old BAF darkseid and it's looking its age...
Once again thanks for the review and the follow up comment.
Honestly the cape should not be a issue I prefer a cloth cape then those stupid plastic capes
@@DnS_reviews. it’s the fact that it has an unnecessary wire at the bottom that weighs it down
I actually really like them.
@@Withmypups247 mileage will definitely vary!
They way you have them standing at the beginning of the vid, Superman and Aquaman literally look like drawings.
@@brianbieler3836 I really do get what they were going for and it’s a neat idea. I just wish the execution was a bit stronger
Who else wanted to know if there is an S on the back of the Superman cape!? 😫 Please, when reviewing figures, show front and back. 😔
@@MtGRebel sure thing, I’ll take that onboard. There’s nothing on the back.
I wish he’d used that Superman head on the return of Superman bulkybody
Wait, so this BAF still has its limbs come off easy?? Like how bad is it? Would heat application work?
NECA has mastered making video game figures look “pixelated”
That said NECA has been doing it to over a decade, (while this is only McFarlane’s first attempt)so NECA definitely were able to perfect it and make the figures look “pixelated”.
I feel like this waves biggest problem is just poor timing. It’s a wave full of reused bodys with a few new bells and whistles. I also think the platinums should’ve been just basic non digital versions of these figures instead of the weird orange variants.
I don´t get why, with the few characters the game has, they didn´t complete them all. They were just missing Green Arrow, Wonder Woman and Cheetah as regular characters. as for the big one, instead of Darkseid I´d have made Despero. Now, that´s a character that barely has figures of him.
@@justicierodelaliga I think you make a great point. I think in the case of Despero and Cheetah we dodged a bullet - I would hate the first version we get to be a videogame version!
How well do the reds on that classic Barry and this new Wally match? I'm thinking about doing a torso swap to get rid of that ugly pixelated logo.
@@TrueDragonnutz13 not well at all! It doesn’t come across in my lighting
@@DCMultiCollector damn. Do you have the new platinum Barry? Are those reds closer? Also am I right in thinking the cape on the Task Force Supes is longer than the one on E2 Supes?
Am I the only one who heard him call Aquaman the flash?
15:06 That's all I needed to know.
I don’t really care. I really just want that dark blue darkseid. If they release it in lighter colours I probably won’t get it if I have this.
Is there an \S/ on Superman's cape?
@@Pravuss no, sadly
The New Flash Figure In This Video Is Wally West?
@@simonperozo8832 yes
@@DCMultiCollector Ok,Thanks.
They are way better in person even aqua man.
That’s why I hate soft good… People who unboxed rave about soft good but the thing is that in the past, they gotten their own soft goods that were to the quality that they like but McFarlane never going to make cakes that quality nor is really any other regular line
Definitely redeemable qualities in my eyes, but Blackest Night wave, it is NOT! It's nice to see McFarlane doing more creative stuff with their figures than Hasbro, like doing figures based on games WITH an old school paint job meant to replicate pixelation if you want to call it that. It's somewhat gimmicky in my eyes, but not in the same way as doing all these unnecessary glow in the dark, sketch, and patina editions. Superman and Batman having poseable capes is a huge plus! The paint job for what it is seems to be pretty nicely done, although I'd say the effect is least noticeable on Flash. As figures they're all solid, though I'd say I'm getting pretty sick of McFarlane being consistently incapable of giving Aquaman a proper face sculpt and paint. I'm also sick of all these floppy weapons. They need to be hard plastic, not floppy. These tridents are either A++ or D. If we're being honest, I'm sure the only real selling point of the wave is Darkseid, and he looks good, but he feels to light and cheap (and hollow), and not as good as the mega fig. Getting sick of the single joint knees and elbows on these thick figs. Not to mention a major disappointment with all of this wave is no interchangeable hands. And I could not figure out on my own how I'm supposed to attach these energy effects. Seems obvious until they fall off. All in all, I'd say it's an intriguing concept, nice gimmick, but not the best execution. A wave entirely supported by its BAF.
The boxes are better than the figures😂😂😂
Great review! For me, these are an easy pass.
@@Professorsoundwaves I think you’re right. People will know very quickly whether this is their cup of tea or not and the good thing is you don’t need to buy a wave you don’t want to get Darkseid. Just grab the megafig. It’s the definition of an “optional” wave. The execution still could have been a lot better I feel
I don’t get how these get hate when they put out actual garbage just wish the finish on flash matched the set mors
DC Multiverse, as a line, remains hot garbage. DC Universe Classics from 10-15 years ago and even DC Icons SHIT all over McFarlane's stuff. Can't wait for the license to pass to someone else.
@@Ythelastnerd Agree to disagree. DCUC look like rubbish to me. Love their character selection though!
Sometimes McF sinks to amateur kitbash-level quality.
