I just can't with that face. I've been looking at countless photos of that head sculpt and I ultimately decided to preorder the ToD figure. Thanks for your input, though.

No worries. Like I said, they each have their drawbacks and everyone has their own priorities regarding what is more important. So long as you are happy with your choice, that is all that matters!

Sadly it's a looooong way off, but I will definitely pick up Hope Pym's Wasp when she becomes available! They've done an amazing job on Rudd's likeness, I'm sure their Evangeline Lily would be just as great.

Yeah, quite a challenge and I don't want to get suspended for doing those dirty deeds...

My armory suffered damage to two of the doors. There's three spots of splintered plastic and two breaks in the plastic on each door. I messaged the seller about it. We'll see how that ends up. The Batman figure is superb. I'm very pleased with him.

I did get a killer deal on this. I feel bad about asking for some compensation, but I feel that I have every right to.

Did it look like a bad packing job?

Packing was fine. The box was lined with bubble wrap and then the armory was wrapped in bubble wrap. The box was not of the highest quality, though. It was definitely roughed up. He spent $40 on 2-day shipping, which I was floored by, as shipping was free on my end.

Did the seller insure it?

I asked him, and he didn't. He offered to do a full return/refund about an hour ago, but I turned that down. I was going to re-sell the armory anyway, so this may be karma considering the unheard of deal I got on this set. A little specialty glue can get this fixed easily, and I will display it opened with all the gadgets/equipment visible.

I just need a Joker 2.0 and I'm done with my Dark Knight trilogy trio.

I'm a Marvel guy myself, but know there's a lot of interest for this here. Seen here:

What a terrible pose! And, without the Superman figure standing over Batman lying on the ground, it looks rather cheap and unimpressive to be honest.

Yeah... i need to see more pics. Not impressed with this one so far.

I may bite on the Armored Batman even though I don't like Affleck.

I will pass on Superman as I already have the Man of Steel figure.

Dear lord the Skeletor premium format figure is insanely cool! I'm not even a fan, but I'm tempted!
