I think you would pose Sgt Rock with The Phantom, The Shadow, Doc Savage - pulp heroes of yesteryear. War comics were a major genre way back when, Sgt Rock is like an encapsulation of that genre.
I am very happy with this Superboy, it is a little plain but that's accurate to his comic look. The head sculpt is is so much better better than the last one that I can't really complain. This one will go with the modern Rebirth Tim Drake, now all we need is a Wonder Girl and another, smaller Impulse.
It’s cool the Connor Kent comes with three different heads. Sergeant Rock is like a gijoe for dc. With the WB rules he didn’t come with any gun accessories. I’m not going to get any of these since not a comic reader and don’t know these. Well not this specific version of Batman.
I didn't know much about Manga Batman or Sgt. Rock, but I buy just about every Batman figure Todd puts out and army guys are just cool. He looks pretty sick with the helmet. Not sure where to put him in the display though. Like you say, there's really nobody to pair him with. I guess he can be posed with the Justice League. Connor Kent was the one I wanted the most from this wave. Love that we get 3 heads and the base is really nice. I would have him pounding a hole in the ground with his fist. The body is way too small and wimpy for Superboy though. He needs to be much bigger and a lot more muscular.
At first I was kind of excited about Conner Kent but the body is too skinny, I have the other super boy that looks good on my titans shelf. If I come across him in the wild I might grab him
Nice 👍, only getting superboy. With the new reveals it looks like they got rid of the card stand . So McFarlene is listening … I still think is not enough for the value . More accesories or gimmicks ( I compare the Mattel’s masterverse deluxe Figs they were fun) I think they need to do brand new sculpts for the collectors edition and the reuses for the regular line that way it feels really premium . A better box as well and the art should match the cards
Out of those 3, batman #1 ,#2 kent and the Sargent is just awful. As an action figure, very nice as a joe kubert representation absolute crap. Stylistically it looks like a speedster or crack meth head all of the above 😂❤
Not getting any of these. Want to like Manga Bats, but just not "there" with it. Never into Superman much. And Rock - compared to 99% of the source material is about as inaccurate as it gets (face, uniform, etc) and, to me, is a plastic turd. BTW, pretty sure I remember a comic as a kid where Rock and Batman team up on a mission, maybe an issue of The Brave and the Bold.
Sgt Rock is awesome. I bought the figure and love the sculpt!
Sgt Rock Debuted in 1959 and ran till the late 80s. Army comic were very popular then.

@@JoshFromBefore 🔥 sounds great. Need some of those pulpy characters! Also saw that he was in creature commandos with Frankenstein once
Manga Batman was one I surprisingly fell love with. Might actually leave in in box to display, just looks nice with the card and all.
Just out of curiosity, are you going to be posting Batman and Robin from The Batman Forever BAF ?
@@Two-Face2424 i have been unwell for a couple of weeks and I’m so far behind! Sorry I plan to get it at some stage!
@@DCMultiCollector All good 👍 Thanks for the update! Hope you feel better
I really dig this Manga Batman.
I was lucky enough to pick up Platinum Rock, and with a few of the gun accessories repainted, he looks so mean.

Picked up Sgt. and Batmanga platinum. Left the superman platinum, only difference is the color of the pants?
The Chest symbol is different
Nice review Mr Dude. I think my Connor and Rock are in the mail but I might have to get Batmang now as well. Thanks a lot 🙄

I just got these in the mail yesterday
Are you going to do the Batman Forever Batman and Robin?
@@retroguy95 I’ve been sick and so I have fallen behind. I promise I’ll get to them!

The shovel is an entrenching tool. For digging foxholes.
@@cropdustcaptain3059 thank you! So in other words… WAR SHOVEL 😂
I could put Sgt Rock w/ my GI Joes.
❤❤❤
I can’t stand the head sculpt on Sergeant Rock. He looks like a gym bro.
he sounded so grateful for the view, but was he grateful enough?

I'm going to start a band and call it WAR SHOVEL.
@@OGTrilogy ARE YOU READDDY TO SHOOOVVEELLL WAAARRRR?!!???
I can play Bayonet.
No card stand? This is outrageous!
that knife should be a k bar copy us millitary issue
I wonder how well it will look to place this superboy's head on the body of the classic superboy
Can you remove the backpack off srgnt slaughter?
If you have the mcfarlane Frankenstein then your Sgt Rock will go with him
@@A_Guy_Named_Hunter. in what comic were they part of the Creature Commandos?
@@DCMultiCollector yes
The war shovel is supposed to fold. All of my G.I. Joe war shovels fold.
these are deep cut figures
