McFarlane Toys - DC Build-A 7IN Figures WV8 - Blackest Night - Batman

This figure looks great

Green Lantern Kyle Rayner was my last, and most anticipated next to Atrocitus, figure for this wave. And he was definitely worth the wait! These might be two of my most favorite DC figures.These figures are beautifully sculpted with nice textures on their suits. It could've been plain and smooth throughout, but it's not. They were given a small bumpy texture everywhere except the obvious of gloves, boots, and mask. Although being lanterns from the same wave, their suit designs create a differ on the placement of the bumpy texture. Kyle's goes throughout his whole suit while Atrocitus' only applies to the black portions. Leaving the red parts a smooth rubber. I also like the accessories of a battery and a construct.Two things I will complain about are: I wish we could've gotten an alternate hand so Kyle could hold both accessories at once. Small thing. Not a big issue. The other is also small, but more urgent. He has two different skin tones. For some odd reason, Kyle's face color differs from the rest of his visible skin. And I do mean the face. His ears, which are of the head piece, are darker like his neck. Images reveal he's just like this too, I didn't get a bad one. It's weird.

I have so many of the Mcfarlane's and being an avid and obsessed comic reader this line has some of my fav figures. Sometime's it's so hard for me to pick which ones are my fav and especially now that they are making some Elseworld figures and some of my fav Multiverse comic runs like The Last Knight on Earth and Death Metal .The Sculpt .... The sculpt is basic and simple but they nail it w/ the added texture to his uniformThe Paint .... The paint is probably the BEST out of the entire wave but it is possible to get a figure w/ a bleeding uniform and a Jacked up side eye and angry expression that looks plain constipated in plastic formArticulation .... Smooth like peanut butter and not the crunchy kindExtraz .... cmon now ! ...No matter if you like the Lanterns and are a fan of the Blackest Night or are wanting to get a step closer to us getting a Guy Gardner figure ( wink get the hint Mcfarlane Toys wink )Kyle Rayner is DEF a must have if you like these figures !

Packaging was great: bubble wrapped tightly in a box that fit the figurine's packaging perfectly. Nearly flawless example of this figurine. Must have for Batman collectors.

This figure physically is very well sculpted...but the paint is really sub-par for a McFarlane toy. Reminds me of the paint application on the giant Joker they released a while back. Instead of looking realistic, gory, or intense...it looks blah. Kind of like when you give a kid a paintbrush meant for a house and ask them to paint the Mona Lisa on an index card. Probably shouldn't have passed QC.

He collects these figures. He loves them.

Has to be one of the coolest looking Batmans! Zombie Blank Lantern Batman is worth the money! His card is also detailed with a nice bit of this waves lore on the back! Plus you get to build Atrocitus! Highly recommend

This figure is an improvement over the one that was released by DC Direct a few years ago. Great sculpt and articulation. They could have done a better job with the face though.
