TOYFARCE REVIEWS:

MCFARLANE TOYS DC MULTIVERSE YEAR 2 - PART 1!

It’s Wednesday, you know what that means… ToyFarce reviews!

This week, we’re gonna continue what we started earlier this year, with the big reviews on multiple waves of McFarlane Toys DC Multiverse figures. The reason is just that I have a huge backlog of pictures of figures that I have taken throughout the year, and wanted to post them at some point, when there is some downtime between deliveries. New stuff will be back next week!

Here are links for the ones from last year: https://www.toyfarce.com/news/review-mcfarlane-toys-dc-multiverse-wave-1 , https://www.toyfarce.com/news/mcfarlane-toys-dc-multiverse-year-1-part-2 , https://www.toyfarce.com/news/review-mcfarlane-toys-dc-multiverse-year-1-part-3

The last figures we checked in ‘Year one - part 3’ were the Flashpoint Batman and Red Hood figures, so we’ll pick up right where we left off with the Batcycle, which came out in early 2021.

BATCYCLE

This version of the Batcycle was taken from the Dark Nights: Death Metal comic book. McFarlane Toys seems to be doing great when it comes to vehicles, which are affordable and look awesome. That bike has a ton of nice details, and looks pretty much like what your bike would look like if you wanted to disguise it as a skeleton bat!

Packaging

Wouldn’t you look badass driving that in your neighborhood?

Front

Ribs… ?

The details on the bike parts are pretty great too!

RANDOM FIGURES WAVE

This wave didn’t really have a theme, so we’ll call it the ‘Random Figures wave’. A Dark Nights: Death Metal Batman, a giant Robin, a Red Son Superman and the Drowned from Dark Nights: Metal, to complete the Dark Multiverse gang.

The Random Figures wave

Packaging

Let’s give him a leather jacket and a scythe! Because Batman wasn’t badass enough, right?

All jokes aside, that is a gorgeous Batman figure.

*BADASSERY INTENSIFYING*

Packaging

That is a TALL Robin!

That South Park facial expression <3

This figure is the new standard scale to measure other figures against.

The robot dance!

Superman, from the classic Mark Millar story arc Red Son, in which Superman did not land in Smallville, but in Ukraine during the Soviet era

Serious Superman is serious.

He reminds me of an actor, but I can’t place who. If you have any idea, let us know in the comments!

Also, HE GOT FAT WRISTS!

Packaging

The Drowned, the last one from the Batman who Laughs’ gang.

This is a version of Batman from another universe where Batman (Bryce Wayne) killed all the metahumans after the death of her lover, and basically became that world’s Aquawoman, after a huge war with Atlantis drowned Gotham City in the ocean. FUN TIMES!

“Under the sea… under the sea…”

BATMAN: LAST KNIGHT ON EARTH WAVE (with BANE build-a-figure)

Finally, a wave with a theme! This entire wave is based on the comic book “Last Knight on Earth” which saw Batman wake up in an asylum, being told that all of his Batman adventures never happened, and he had been in a mental institution the whole time, imagining them. Of course, it’s Batman, so he’ll escape and try to get to the bottom of it. Great story!

The Batman: The Last Knight on Earth wave

A nice different design for the Bat, inspired by Greg Capullo’s art from the book (of course, it had to be Capullo).
