The Keaton suit feels to me what the suit *would have* looked like had there been another team up with Burton for Batman 3. A logical evolution. Same thing with the Batmobile. Remember how it was more or less mostly destroyed in Batman Returns. It seems to be rebuilt and tweaked like the suit which is why I'm not necessarily bothered by the differences...yet.
Great review! The theory floating around w/the gray canopy is that its a separate component made as one semi clear mold in a different type of plastic. So when the gloss black was applied to a semi transparent plastic the end result is gray. In certain lights it doesn't appear as gray because the plastic is bouncing back the amount of light around it.
I really liked the JL Flash costume, if they're gonna redesign it, go full blast. But on the other end of the spectrum, if you're going to make it look like the comics complete with sculpted muscles, go for it full blast, that's half why BvS Batfleck is my favorite. The figure is great but this whole half way thing doesn't work for me.
Wish youtube reviewers would stop saying that this design will or might appear in the movie because its not, the 89 Batmobile hasnt changed since it was painted years ago for OnStar! It will appear in the movie exactly how it was then nothing has changed
Almost got Sasha’s name right Calle pronounced Ka’h - YE Calle is a spanish word that means street you can look up calle in some spanish video for pronunciation reference
I have one on preorder from walmart but I just got another at gamestop, that one I am adding a wire to the cape and keep the other normal. The arms can go out but the shulder pad came off on mine but its just glued on so its an easy fix
The canopy doesn’t really bug me at all, it’s the fact that it’s not designed to fit two figures. It should of been a bit wider and longer to accommodate two figures. This just isn’t much of interest for me.
I am 100% with you the belt should have been the same yellow gold from 89 and Returns it something very cool and unique about keaton Batman plus Neca release the keaton belt would have help to sell more unit !!!
I wish WB would stop doing different ways of doing the Superman Emblem. I like the Alex Ross Emblem that is classic and Beautifully done. I hate these new version of the S. I wish they would keep it Classic.
Let's be real, the batmobile is the most popular thing McFartland has put out period. I was able to fit both the Mattel 80th anniversary DC multiverse batman and the Mattel 03 Robin in the batmobile next to each other so it can fit 2 6 inch scale figures if you want it to.
just picked up the flash figure I just wish that he had more hands but the figure is a lot better in hand then the promo pics and camera I the other figures I'm not picking up but the flash is pretty cool 😎
Very nice thorough review. I never care to collect any of the superhero movie figures (gotta draw the line somewhere to keep this hobby manageable 😅) but there's a lot of progress in these figures that I would like to be applied on the comic DC Multiverse figures, mainly regarding articulation. Aesthetically though, I see these have a bit of problems regarding the finish (whether matte or shiny) which are a bit inconsistent, i know that's not something 100% avoidable when working with different types of plastics, but hopefully it would look a little better in the future. And as I said I am not really drawn to the movie figures , the one exception for me is Keaton Batman because of my inner child fanboy, but those thick ears just put me off , and really I think it's a fair guess we will get another Keaton Batman figure from McFarlane toys down the line, specifically I'm rooting for a Batman Returns wave(I won't bother to dream on a Nicholson Joker because apparently he charges a crazy expensive likeness fee).
Sigh. Even by McFarlane standards there are some seriously wonky sculpts in this wave. They even HAD an Affleck sculpt to work off and somehow, the Affleck Bats doesn't look like the guy. The proportions on 'Bat-Flash' are totally off and Dark Flash... ye gods. The sad thing is I love (finally) Barry's look in this movie and want to like the figure but oyyyyy he looks so weird.
Have any of the people complaining about the batmobile being a one seater never have the Kenner one? With the exception of ToyBiz, every batmobile has been a one seater.

I would say Michael Keaton being in flash is 80% of the draw of sales.
I'd say it's 100% lol
Totally.
Definitely I'd say at least 80% of why anyone over 30 would go see this movie .
There certainly seems to be more focus on Keaton and Calle than Miller in the marketing. Tho that might be due in part to recent controversy.
The circles on the wrists are actually glucose meter or something like that, I remember him saying the the has blood sugar on JL
I hope MAFEX does a Supergirl, they'd nail it like always.

I just got The Flash & Supergirl today, and was pretty impressed with both! Now I’ve just gotta get ahold of both Batman figures, and I’ll be happy!
It's Sasha Calle like the word, street. So think of John McClane "Yippie Ki-Yay, Mother Trucker!"

They were Nike Air Jordans 🏀🐐
You are right with the artwork, I would like McFarlane could include a QR Code so we can download a printable version of those beauties.

your recent thumbnails look great btw
The Flash figure is pretty good actually. It’s not spectacular, but it will do.

Are you still reviewing the beast kingdom Darkseid or did I imagine you got that on a stream?
A good matt coating would make the Flash figure look better
Google is also wrong, it’s Calle (as in Caye)

I’ve been looking everywhere! I just want the 89 Batmobile
I think I will get Batfleck for some customization.
I think time stop are those circle
Batman shoes 🐐🦇
I'm going to be harsh, but the first version of the flash is much more beautiful, much more detailed than this one

Calle is pronounced: Ka ye. Double L in spanish is pronounced like a Y.
just picked up the flash figure I just wish that he had more hands but the figure is a lot better in hand then the promo pics and camera I the other figures I'm not picking up but the flash is pretty cool 😎
The ll in Calle sound like Y

If you want to know how to pronounce her last name, ask Google how do you say "street" in Spanish. Calle is street in Spanish.
I feel like he acts a little childish now...especially with the intro music. Almost the same energy as squirrel stampede
These figures really look cheap and the proportions and paint are all off.
That Flash figure is hideous. It looks like gummy plastic. Maybe it's better in person, but everything I've seen online suggests otherwise.
The belt from the Three Jokers Batman would look great on this Batman.
As for that Flash, the figure is nice, but design of the costume is hideous.
that keaton batman is the best live-action version of a figure there is
Amazing review
It really solidified my opinion on definitely getting that flash figure

The Keaton Bats looks good. I am actually shocked McFarlane actually did so well with this one. I may actually buy it! Maybe. 😅😊
I guess I'm second😄

i wish that the micheal keaton batman came with a second head that had the meme face on it
I don't like Ezra Miller as Flash
Awesome review! Those flash figures are disgusting 😂 Batman and the Batmobile are great tho. Wish He had a string coming from his waist lol
I'm first 😊
