Why come DC can't have good toys? I'm not even loyal to any comic universe and I would love a mixed shelf of either one, but it seems that Marvel has always had the superior toys since the Toybiz Legends to this very day
>>11925965the real question is why can't this board have better mods.
>>11925965New 52 derailed DCUC (DC embargoed and later heavily restricted any figures pre-N52 design wise and Mattel was stuck with a ton of Dark Knight Returns and New 52 Superman figures no one wanted clogging shelves, causing Walmart and Target to refuse to carry most of the last couple of DC Rebirth inspired waves that desperately tried to course correct shit). And Todd, with his penis envy and refusal to make figures people wanted, but instead Batman and evil Batmen and ugly ass original character designs, poisoned the well for DC Multiverse, so that by the time DC forced Todd to hire a ringer who straight up had the power to veto his boss's demands and forced Todd to make figures people wanted, it was too late
>>11925971I’d settle for ids
>>11925965Mattel slop won't be as good as this.
>>11925965dcuc line was good, especially using the term toy.
>>11925965Giving third worlders and ESLs internet access was such a fucking mistake.
>>11925965>YES YES YES, EXACTLY Why come, indeed.
>>11926155Yuck! That's disgusting!
>>11926480What about this one?
>>11925965Probably monopoly laws make it illegal for Hasbro to have both superhero licenses.
>>11925965Huh? You like those undersized manlet toys Marvel cucks get? And you say you're NOT a Marvel fanboy? I don't buy it.
>>11926155Okie dokie faggot blowie
>>11925965DC does have good toys they just arent from american companies
>>11925965>Why come
>>11926561Thanks for proving my point.
>>11926757Why come only one girl?
>>11926779Why come?
>>11926565You mean those wonky Revoltechs that werent even good for Marvel? Nah
>>11926561Yikes. Even ai slop mogs it.
u knoe why come op no make better gooder thread wif effort insteads sar?
This design isn't even interesting its just old so its treated as 'classic', like theres better toys out there why does everyone in this thread ovulate so hard when it comes to capeslop? Because its part of history?
>>11927130>ovulateSister, no one here bleeds once a month
>>11926757>>11926797I love you, anons>>11927130if you say so. I just see Hasbro doing Wonder Woman better
>>11927130Absolute is edgy try-hard slop and needed to steal an anime sword to have a semblance of cool.
>>11925965DC Universe Classics was a great Marvel Legends substitute though.Not a clusterfuck like McFarlane's offerings.
>>11927577>>11927578it's funny Americans still believe anyone cares about comic books when anime won
>>11927577>>11927579Wake me up when a non Chinese made film that makes 90% of it's money in China, that's animated or live action, that's based on weeb shit, sells a $1B+ in tickets, mkay?
>>11927607kpop demon hunters
>>11927607>sells a $1B+ in ticketsBut not in comics, kek.
>>11927641Didn't sell many movie tickets.Netflix movies rarely do. >>11927775Wake me up when your tankos sell s billion.
>>11926897Not that guy, but the sculpt looks soft and the face details are superior on power princess. Also, that ugly gold plastic color isnt doing it any favors. Knowing mattel the mass retail version might even look worse
>>11928915look at this absolute retard in denial kpop demon hunters outsold all of hasbro's sloppy effort
yall too broke for mafex or what
>>11929053MLs aren't worth $30, Todds aren't worth $35 and Mafex aren't worth $90
>>11929149None of these toys are worth what we pay. I'm not buying these things based on worth though. I'm not that poor. I just buy the best looking ones that fit in with the rest of my collection.
>>11929149All toys nowadays are overpriced but if you want a quality figure worthy of posing and displayed youre gonna have to spend extra on an import like mafex, inart, or revoltech
>>11929273I don't think Mafex usually looks good enough in sculpt to justify the cost. Inart and LPZZ are the standards now.
>>11929332Those tend to also cost a bit more than Mafex. Mafex, before shipping, are still under $100. LPZZ and Inart are like $150. And that's befor shipping. I don't know if I'd really put them in the same boat tbqh. LPZZ and Inart are a tier higher than imports like Mafex, SHF, and even Revoltech, imo.
>>11929336Still no reason to spend almost 100 on a Mafex when you can just put that towards the Inart or LPZZ. Unless it's a character Inart or LPZZ will never do, but it's hard to guarantee such a thing.
>>11929373>Unless it's a character Inart or LPZZ will never doThis is why. I already bought Batman and Catwoman and Superman years ago. At this point, I'm getting Mafex just because they're actually filling out new characters so I don't feel the need to get Inart of LPZZ unless they do a version I don't already have.
>>11929332Insert and LPZZ look better, that's for certain. But not 100-200 better.
>>11925965Super Powers and original Megos are the only lines for DC figures that have ever been worth collecting.
>>11930399why come original megos ugly trash
>>11930399Aside, of course, from McFarlane's revolutionary and industry-defining line which the Japs still copy to this day (though scaled down for tiny gook hands, naturally)
>>11930609This is a joke, yes?
We just had McFarlane DC multiverse which was the best figure line in the toy industry in terms of quality for price
>>11930715>t.
>>11930710If you're ignorant of the industry, it might read like one. That's how Todd Derangement Syndrome occurs.
>>11930715barf. Bad diagonal ankle rockers, tight abrasive joints, chunky kibbled parts, and sculpts that don't feel smoothed out
>>11930609>>11930715
>>11930605They're fugly in a cute, nostalgic way for people who grew up with them. You do not know what it was like going to the K-Mart toy aisle in the early 80s with Mom hoping they'd have your favorite superhero. Magical times.>>11930609>McFarlane's revolutionary and industry-defining lineMcFarlane spread himself way too thin and the production standards on his lines were all over the place. The Spawn toys were goated, though.
