Had the same thought. I didn't bother with Task Force because Good God, but this looks almost exactly the same, just without the purposely terrible paint job.
True! I had made a custom classic Superman from that figure. Now it looks spot on for me.
Preordered Batman but my biggest disappointment is that the cape isn't wired ?

Likewise. He's certainly one that I was hoping to get (and have failed to thus far...) but I'm genuinely surprised that everybody else is in the same boat. That or the production runs are waaaay down in anticipation of the end of the license so they don't get any leftover stock.
Batman and Nightwing are still up at BBTS.
If you have any doubt how McFarlane treats female DC characters, here is your evidence. Spoiler sold out in minutes despite having a limit 1 for most of the period (they forgot to put it up right at 12, but it was in place by about 12:02). Batman is still available today, despite no limit on purchases.
McFarlane can't lose this license fast enough. It is BS this is happening in 2025.

Amazon did not display them until 10 minutes later, and when it did, it was gone, all 4! Shady right? This has been going on for a while now. Why has it become impossible to buy from them? I wish they would list the pages so we have the direct links in advance. Somehow, people are getting to it before it shows up on Amazon.
I've said this countless times, I can't be on the forums right away so please look to the main page when items you want to pre-order drop. The news on the main page was up at 12 pm EDT. With SDCC coming up PLEASE always look to the main page if you want the news as it happens. I do my best to get on here and post as fast as I can.
I didn't have any trouble getting Dick off of BBTS.

The figures popped up on Amazon after 1 PM and lasted about 15 minutes.
They went up at BBTS, EE, and Walmart on time. They lasted for almost a reasonable amount of time on Walmart.

Walmart says these guys are shipping July 17.
