Guy Gardner, Hawkgirl and Engineer from Superman (2025) just to add a few more in in the astoundingly absent characters...

Thought, hey Todd why don't you just make the figure we all know you want to, Batspawn, and you can do 17 variants, and when that well runs dry, just switch it up and bit and do Al Wayne, oh yeah not done...Bruce Simmons, I mean come on...The Joker/Clown combination seems way too perfect.

The yellow-backed symbol in DKR is notably inconsistent throughout the first two issues, even in-sequence it gets drawn differently. That said, I don't think the symbol McFarlane is using here gets drawn once. (the second pic I've provided is the closest thing, but even that's more elongated that what McFarlane has done). In nearly every panel we see it, the Batsymbol (that he actually wears) has the far-end up-and-down points, as opposed to the umbrella look on this figure. There's a dozen versions they could have done that would have been more accurate than this, is what I'm saying.

I want it to be good too, but I have my doubts; Im not at all sure itll be much better than McFarlanes. (It might just be bad in a different way.) Id be happy if McFarlane stayed onthey just need to pay a little more attention to quality, and everything would be fine.
This Daredevil-style red Batman is pretty cool, but I still don't get why some figures have wires in their capes and others don't. The latest Green Lantern (the one with Grundy) didn't have any, even though his collar and cape look exactly the same. (Just like Bloodwynd's.)
Precisely the approach one should take. When Mattel had DC before, all of their figures had the same 3 or 4 body types in small, mid, to large height/build. Same abs, same body frames, same articulation, etc. They've stepped up their game with all of their "Ultimate" wwe figs. But they are pretty much just McFarlane figs. To see the future of DC, look no further than w/e Mattel considers their best figures now. If they go the newer "He-Man" route, things should be fine. Not amazing, but fine.

No comics' based Poison Ivy, Black Mask, Ventriloquist w/Scarface, Mad Hatter, Harley Quinn, modern era Catwoman, & Penguin, yet we get Mr. Bloom? No Theatrical Ra's al Ghul from Batman Begins? No Mad Hatter from Batman '66, but they produce the pink cowled Batman from one of the Batman '66 episodes featuring the Mad Hatter. Ridiculous.

Now THIS I absolutely agree with! He should do a wave of JUST these figs you mentioned alone. Mostly the modern comics Batman rogues.

I have a feeling the first one was an error that couldnt be fixed and the black one was a standard repaint although ill bet a black version exists in some source material somewhere. This 3rd one is what was meant to come out originally. The next version of the Az-bat armor was more in line with this darker blue which is correct. That original release was also hard as hell to find. Even for me.
Id like the first version of the standard Batman suit with the crazy gauntlets. Thats an easy custom if the gsuntlets are the same across both versions.
If only one of those four awful figures was actually the original 1996 Sword of Azrael Costume....

i Just got shot in the face with a Batman cannon, like caaamm on, dude, what kinda coffee are you drinking in the morning, at this point there is no way he's making Batman money from all these Batman, it must be the opposite like I need the numbers crunched and the pie charts, because I can't....it actually makes me boil and at the same time laugh at how predictable it is, making the this guy literally spews batman figures out of a slurpy machine joke like too real to be funny.
I should play the how many Batmen is Todd gonna make this month lottery, I might win enough to buy McFarlane toys off of him, So I can make 55 Dumb Bunny figures before the licenses ends.
