So far DC Multiverse I pick up a few here an there....mostly Joker and Harley. I would have picked up AzBats and Parallax but the exclusiveness of them and that Parallax is "off" to me....I haven't.
I hear that! Since I already have a pretty full DC collection from Mattel and DC Direct, my initial intent with McFarlane was only to buy figures that had never been made before by Mattel or DCD, but with all the readily available clearance prices on McFarlane figures I've ended up picking at least one of every character they've put out and in some cases more than that even after getting started with them a year or two in. This hobby is too addictive!
I believe they have already decided for certain numbers of figures that will be released months ahead from now at least one or two years prior... Let's admit it, Infinite Frontier is one of, if not the worst era of DC, but on their initial release they haven't realized that; and these McFarlane figures, doesn't matter if they're sculpted very nicely will hardly able to compete with their predecessors who came under much better group eras such as New 52, Rebirth, or specific standalone titles such as Flashpoint, Red Son, Injustice, etc.
Two-Face would be nice. Poison Ivy & Punchline would be great too. Let's hope Todd gets over his anti-female stance on figures.

From McFarlane alone I've got all 3 Jokers from 3 Jokers, Rebirth Joker, White Knight Joker, Dark Knight Returns Joker, Arkham Joker, Mortal Kombat Joker and the Bloody variant.... plus I've got a comic and movie version each from Mattel.
Like ZerZar999, I'd also like to see more variety of characters - but I also get that McFarlane knows that Batman and Joker (and Superman) will always sell at retail while the less known characters only get purchased by us adult collectors.
ToyNewman, I agree. I'd like to see a Punchline figure as soon as possible. I'd probably buy an IF Harley also. However we know that Todd isn't crazy about doing female figures in his line. I'm really looking forward to that Knightfall Catwoman though!

Do we need another Joker? He looks good, but I'm happy with the one I got. Todd says female figures don't sell but and I get the Whole Superman and Batman figures sell better, but isn't this a line targeted towards adult collectors? Spin master is doing the kids DC line and they got alot more characters than this one and alot of female figures.

And yes, before anyone has to point it out to me, I know Batman is the biggest, and probably only, thing DC has going right now. But that's only because the comic's writing has become so terrible. There are still a ton of recognizable characters from the DCU that the public will respond to. Everyone knows Superman, and Flash, and Green Lantern and Aquaman. Just cuz no one reads the comics anymore doesn't mean we don't know who they are. I haven't bought a Batman or Joker in I don't know how long, but I've sure bought every other character that's come out since. I always assumed this was the general feeling in the collecting community. I've always felt variety of characters was the key to sales. I can't be the only one. Can I?
The Signal and Superboy were announced also and both look great.....as a fan of the Joker and I frequently buy all his figures I'm happy for this one because I like JImenz's art from Infinite Frontier Batman. The more the merrier for me Same goes for Harley Quinn and hopefully Punchline!
