The Fwoosh I have that mafex Batpod and I'm really glad with it. Love that Rubber tires. I have the Catwoman 1.0 and came with this exact same hands for that
I always warm the hands up under warm water before slipping them on.. Lucky me, I never had a Mafex break on me yet! That trick is probably the safest way if it seems too tight to fit, the water trick helps for sure!
Great review! I have the first (1.0) version and I thought it was pretty good, but I do really like the unmasked head on this one. The leather on the boots looks so real! I’m happy that MAFEX is making figures from TDK Trilogy as I don’t care for the DCEU. I have the NECA Begins, but I may buy the MAFEX one as well since I am collecting the line. Can’t wait for the Scarecrow!
Great review as usual Killah. This video got me even more excited for this figure. Can't wait until I get mine from Amiami. I find myself passing on the Figuarts figures more and more for the Medicom counterparts. At least on the DC stuff. This video gives me hope that I am making the right choice.
I'm glad I'm leaning that way too because I already had the whole series preordered, haha. But yeah, I don't even feel the need to grab the SHF DC stuff. Unless Joker lets me down next month, then I may have to grab the Bandai one. Thankfully they are the same size. Crazy import companies...
The face looks great, but Medicom needs to tweak that skin tone, but for the most part; incredible figure. Glad to see that QC issues aren't so common with Mafex figures nowadays.
Yeah, now that I try to think back, it's been a while since any MAFEX has been "throw it through the window" bad. It's hard to break that image but they are giving it their damndest.
The Fwoosh yeah honestly even bvs batman was really cool, and superman was okay besides his floppyness and orange skin tone. Really looking forward to two face, joker, and cop joker! 2017 has been such an awesome year for toys and I've already got 2018 loaded down with orders - _ - oh and I canceled my 1/4 joker 😭 have a great New Year's Eve and a happy new year robo
This looked better than I thought it would! I feel like she literally only comes with that Batman cowl/mask because they'd already molded it to make the broken one that comes with Bane.
I still don't feel like their face tech is as solid as Bandai's. They only seem to print the eyes, whereas SHF have various skin tones going on giving it more life. And I can't help but feel like every Mafex figure has jaundice with the weird yellow skin they keep using.
Great review brother!!! She looks amazing and im definitely going to have to pick her up. When MAFEX is firing on all cylinders they can hang with anyone...
So happy this figure came out so good. Love that head sculpt and face print... way better that Version 1. Now this figure has me thinking of other possible Catwoman figures. I’d kill for an awesome Julie Newmar Batman:1966 Catwoman. Premium quality 1/12 scale Batman ‘66 figures would be amazing... but ‘66 Catwoman is who I’m dreaming of ;)
This looks good but I'm going with SHF. I feel like the button part is too wide. It makes me think of the Miss Incredible lol . Looks light years better that the 1.0 v tho
wasnt going to get the MAFEX Dark Knight Trilogy figures but now tempted to get this and Bane. see you said theres been no push backs on releases of late do you know when some of the Justice League movie ones are going to be out?
Haven't been keeping track of the JL stuff since I haven't seen the movie but I meant that Selina didn't get pushed, Batman did. So they still may delay some stuff.
The Fwoosh yeah was just curious thought couple of JL Mafex were due out about same time as film and others about April. May just wait till you or some other reviews go up for it that way I'll know they are out.
Mafex are impressing me! I wouldn't mind grabbing the Death Trooper or Shoretrooper from Rogue One. Question, are you going to be doing a top ten best and worst figures of 2017? Please do so!! Have a great 2018 Robo!!
I have the same problem with my 2.0 mafex Catwoman how do I fix that right leg from coming off the ball joint you need to tell us how to do that my friend or show us how to do it that would even be better .. waiting for your response
Give her a lightsaber and she's a perfect Sith Apprentice for The Black Series Darth Vader! This sure looks like a great figure, the head sculpt and paint app is amazing.
You really need to be exact with the height measurement by using a ruler we need exact measurements for that out here to see if she goes with other line characters very important
Was that Mrs Robo in the intro, or are you just really good at women's voices? :) Yeah this one looks great, and I was tempted by v1, so I've ordered it - damn it Robo! Have held out on Batman as want to see what their V2 of the next release looks like, though I'd be interested to know what your perfect Batman is? As context, I'll probably only ever need one Batman, same as I got (I think) the Mk3 Figuarts Ironman and I'm good - I don't need anymore red or gold suits, just maybe the original handmade one from the first film
At the moment the MAFEX Batman Begins is my favorite. Plenty of articulation but not overdone in the engineering, plus it looks great. But I'm also waiting for the 3.0. If it's like Begins without the restrictions of the suit design itself, it should be awesome. And yeah, that was the wife. It took a few takes to get it but she now realizes it's not as easy as it seems, haha.
The Fwoosh cool, I'll await the review. Though Batman does need a Joker and maybe a Bane, and so on... 😢(my wallet). Haha, no doubt there's some skill and practice to it. You'll have to start thinking of how to make it a double act, if Mrs Robo gets a taste for RUclips life!
The only thing they did not do that disappoints me is they did not give her a whip and she had in Batman Returns when she was in the jewelry store and chased off to guards with the whip Catwoman has always had a whip I don't know how they miss that part
3:15 Yeah....like how Harley from Figuart's suicide squad line was pleasantly "inaccurate" to Margot Robbie, the same applies to this figure and Anne Hathaway. Nothing too drastic. just a tad wider and more defined. On a less crass note however, I also see the difference is the "basketball" detailing on her torso and legs. The old was was organized in vertical lines with wide spaces in between, making them very obvious. Here, the blend in better with being horizontal, smaller points, with little to no spaces in between the rows and hide under the overlapping nature of the panels. Looking at pictures 1.0 is actually more accurate in how the film costume approached it. media.comicbook.com/2016/12/anne-hathaway-cat-woman-217889.jpg But nonetheless 2.0 is still better.
Yeah, I tend to gravitate to my mind's eye for characters, even movie ones. This one is just overall more aesthetically pleasing, even if it's off a bit.
Yeah, personally I'm often compulsive over "replica" figures, those advertised by accuracy, to inlcude all of the media details, yet at the same time I'm often even more swayed by faithful yet stylized designs of characters like certain 3rd party G1 figures. This is another example for me.
Damn you, Robo. I just put in over $500 worth of pre-orders because of you. Thank you, Robo. I would have totally missed out of these Nolan Trilogy figures if not for you. I hold both sentiments simultaneously. Watch your back; I might give you a surprise from-behind hug!.... and not stop until I've smothered you... but then I would perform CPR and buy you a frozen yogurt with toppings!... the toppings contain potassium benzoate...
Yes my friend you are exactly right you should always always use a ruler to measure your review character first out of the box and then go on with your review that way we will get an exact measurement of these characters which is always always important solo for compatibility with other characters such as mezco Batman characters she fits perfect with him but you did not show mezco so you should do that as well
Oh, I'm betting the SHF will be amazing too. But I don't see SHF doing the rest like MAFEX is doing. Of course, it doesn't really matter since they scaled them the same, for whatever reason. Crazy companies.
Oh, it makes the Mattel version wish it had never been born. This erases the Mattel version from existence completely. In fact, I now can't even remember if I ever had that one, had to actually Google it to remember what it looked like.
Great video as usual Robo. You are correct they never called her catwoman in the movie. I have a request though. Do you have any info on the new dioramas from Nova. www.bigbadtoystore.com/Product/VariationDetails/65094
Mafex doing great but skintone just need to fix. Too fellowish. Need more different headsculpt. I mean for $60 piece, could be better than every aspect of shfiguarts.
More expensive is right! Where the hell does MAFEX get off, charging higher and higher prices, when they have a shit history? Fk, my BvS Superman neck peg broke and the arm keeps falling off.
Definitely getting this dominatrix Anne Hathaway figure.
Those "double trigger" hands are for the Batpod grip. They come with the v.1 too.
Interesting. I'm going to have to get a Batpod, right?
The Fwoosh I have that mafex Batpod and I'm really glad with it. Love that Rubber tires. I have the Catwoman 1.0 and came with this exact same hands for that
You are evil.
Those hands are supposed to be putting her fingers up to her goggles I think
I honestly feel weird now hearing you say Mafex different, like I'm used to you saying Mae-Fex
I'll be back to that soon enough, gotta milk the joke for now, heh.
Muh-Fex
Mehfex, mafex, mahfex, mayfex, moofex, mufex which is it Robo?!
mufex is my favourite
I second mufex
I prefer Mucus.
When it was pronounced muff-ex I had to stop and ponder my place in the universe...
It's all of them!
I always warm the hands up under warm water before slipping them on.. Lucky me, I never had a Mafex break on me yet! That trick is probably the safest way if it seems too tight to fit, the water trick helps for sure!
Can't wait to watch your :
- Mafex Bane
- Hasbro BS Rey Island
- Hasbro BS Tarkin

It's really weird, I can see the skin is off in pics but in-person it's not really noticeable.
Much better!
I'm caught off-guard how much I'm liking this figure.
Aaaawwww did you make Catwoman's voice, Victoria? ❤️
I do not buy a lot of expensive figures but when I see one I like I want it I want that figure
I've been much happier with mafex since homecoming Spider-Man and this looks great! Great review man
Yeah, now that I try to think back, it's been a while since any MAFEX has been "throw it through the window" bad. It's hard to break that image but they are giving it their damndest.

Aw man, that's a shame about the 1/4 Joker, but sometimes just gotta make the hard choices. If you're not getting one, neither am I!
This looked better than I thought it would! I feel like she literally only comes with that Batman cowl/mask because they'd already molded it to make the broken one that comes with Bane.
I'm always down for extras, no matter how odd they are, haha. And yeah, she caught me off-guard, I like her WAY better than I thought I would.
Better than the SH Figuarts, for sure!!!
I still don't feel like their face tech is as solid as Bandai's. They only seem to print the eyes, whereas SHF have various skin tones going on giving it more life. And I can't help but feel like every Mafex figure has jaundice with the weird yellow skin they keep using.
Samuntrus
Yes someone said it, yellowy skin tone
Like what is this Lego?!
The yellow skin looks awful, can't figure out why anyone would buy this...
You guys hated The Last Jedi too, right?
I kid, I kid...
I enjoyed TLJ but had some issues with it...the yellow skin on the Mafex figures is just an eyesore to me, to each his own...
Grrrr now i have to get this for my batpod darn you and your amazing reviews lol sweet review like always man!
Hell, I talked myself into getting the Batpod, I never wanted one before, haha.
MEOW!
Now I regret not ordering this figure but I wasn't sure back then. But after seeing this review I'm sold on this figure.
I wasn't sure either but daaaaaang, it's pretty amazing.
This puts v1 to shame. I want ...
Great review brother!!! She looks amazing and im definitely going to have to pick her up. When MAFEX is firing on all cylinders they can hang with anyone...
I can't help but think they'll drop the ball on one and then we're back to "Will the next be better?" I'm an Eeyore like that, haha.
That one looks so much better than the original I bought the other day. I’m jealous.
this is really good and alot of it reminds me of what they did with the mafex spiderman but the legs seem less tight which is good
So happy this figure came out so good. Love that head sculpt and face print... way better that Version 1.
Now this figure has me thinking of other possible Catwoman figures. I’d kill for an awesome Julie Newmar Batman:1966 Catwoman. Premium quality 1/12 scale Batman ‘66 figures would be amazing... but ‘66 Catwoman is who I’m dreaming of ;)
Oh, don't make me want another assortment when we've only barely started this one! I'd kill for a good '66 Batman series.
The Fwoosh ;) there’s always another series of figures to obsess about just over the horizon
Haha, true enough.
They have no right charging mezco prices on the pre-orders. I will buy all of these when they clearance out on Amazon for 40 or 50
I paid $56 for this from HLJ.
Thanks Maybe I'll try them out.
Yes! Great video 👌
I know what I’m ordering next
This looks good but I'm going with SHF. I feel like the button part is too wide. It makes me think of the Miss Incredible lol . Looks light years better that the 1.0 v tho
Hey it also look Kun the catwomen form the Adam West Batman show 😂
3:07 which is the MAFEX Selina Kyle 2.0 Catwoman The Dark Knight Rise left or right?
wasnt going to get the MAFEX Dark Knight Trilogy figures but now tempted to get this and Bane. see you said theres been no push backs on releases of late do you know when some of the Justice League movie ones are going to be out?
Haven't been keeping track of the JL stuff since I haven't seen the movie but I meant that Selina didn't get pushed, Batman did. So they still may delay some stuff.
The Fwoosh yeah was just curious thought couple of JL Mafex were due out about same time as film and others about April. May just wait till you or some other reviews go up for it that way I'll know they are out.
Mafex are impressing me! I wouldn't mind grabbing the Death Trooper or Shoretrooper from Rogue One. Question, are you going to be doing a top ten best and worst figures of 2017? Please do so!! Have a great 2018 Robo!!
Top 5 and Bottom 5, should be up today. I've been having trouble deciding, haha. And grab the Deathtrooper and Shoretrooper, both are excellent!
Muffix already released this?!
I would have ordered her!
I really need a good Catwoman and I can't see one being better than this.
SidTheAstroSloth until Figuarts does one...
Hot damn, Robo, you got a sexy lady voice.
(I know, I know lol)
Haha, you should have heard it before I conned the wife into it!
I have the same problem with my 2.0 mafex Catwoman how do I fix that right leg from coming off the ball joint you need to tell us how to do that my friend or show us how to do it that would even be better .. waiting for your response
Give her a lightsaber and she's a perfect Sith Apprentice for The Black Series Darth Vader! This sure looks like a great figure, the head sculpt and paint app is amazing.
Oh man, don't be giving me any reason to get a second one!
My left arm broke, I can still get it to pop into place, but it falls off a lot. Anyone else have this issue?
Hmm, haven't had that problem.
Good review~ thanks to your review, I can decide which one shuold i get!! (SHF vs MAFEX)
You have not even tried mezco yet and I would like to know if there's Catwoman will be a good height for Maya Mexico Justice League Batman
Have you tried Mezco yet?
You really need to be exact with the height measurement by using a ruler we need exact measurements for that out here to see if she goes with other line characters very important
Was that Mrs Robo in the intro, or are you just really good at women's voices? :)

Dude, I didnt even get my first Mezco until 4 months after I reviewed this figure. And if you watch more recent reviews I do use a ruler.
this is good but i got my money on sh catwoman. cant wait to see what else mafex brings though
Oh, I'm betting the SHF will be amazing too. But I don't see SHF doing the rest like MAFEX is doing. Of course, it doesn't really matter since they scaled them the same, for whatever reason. Crazy companies.
hahaha so true, just gotta wait and see what 2018 has to offer
the height difference between ann hathaway and margot robbie is only 2 inches lol but ann is taller
I i Like This video Good job Awsome Toy review
This blows the mattel version out of the water.
Oh, it makes the Mattel version wish it had never been born. This erases the Mattel version from existence completely. In fact, I now can't even remember if I ever had that one, had to actually Google it to remember what it looked like.
Great video as usual Robo. You are correct they never called her catwoman in the movie. I have a request though. Do you have any info on the new dioramas from Nova. www.bigbadtoystore.com/Product/VariationDetails/65094
I'm not going crazy! Or senile, haha! And I have no info, I've been meaning to look into those but just at a glance they are crazy and confusing.
1st one but good vid😀😀😀😀
i want it soooo bad
Mafex doing great but skintone just need to fix. Too fellowish. Need more different headsculpt.
I mean for $60 piece, could be better than every aspect of shfiguarts.
Maybe I've been looking at it too long in person, and I've definitely seen the yellow in older MAFEX figures, but I'm just not seeing it here.
Lol, great review!
Mafex QC is really horrible. Sculpt and proportion is good though
More expensive is right! Where the hell does MAFEX get off, charging higher and higher prices, when they have a shit history? Fk, my BvS Superman neck peg broke and the arm keeps falling off.
Damn she got a helluva gap
Juls Token probably so she can sit on the Batpod ...
Robo we love your reviews but can we just go back to pronouncing it "may-fex"? lol
Haha, I haven't run the joke into the ground yet! But yes we can, very very soon.
Like
This toy is the worst
Disagree, but you can feel however you want. It's cool.
The Fwoosh what I say it is correct the hot toys is more cooler because it is hot
