In this particular case, Mcfarlane did it too much better!

The ball joints in the ankles are backwards. I find this has happened a few times with Mcfarlane figures where you just can't them to stand, but if you turn the ball joint right around and swivel the foot back into the proper place it's easier to get him to stand up properly without the stand.

Can't remember which one it was but something similar happened while covering this batch of videos. A joint spun in place and the cut of the joint was perpendicular.

I disagree about the ultility belt. It is much more detailed and accurately painted on the DC Collectables version. The Mcfarlane one just looks like a flat yellow piece of plastic. I had to paint mine (I have the Mcfarlane version) using the belts of DC Collectables and Neca 1/4 as references and now it looks way better. I used a mix of gold and copper acrylic paint for a realistic metallic feel and also painted out the missing silver details. (The sculpt is there but they forgot to paint them). Also made the lower abdomen grey and added backwash. Now it looks better, almost like a smaller version of the Neca 1/4.

Thanks man you inspired me to paint mine. I was playing the game and took some photos. And used a hot toys image as a reference as well. It looks amazing. And I see where McFarlane missed the grey on his stomach chest as well. I appreciate this comment. A lot. Love my Batman now

I go with the McFarlane version even if its color/paint apps are inaccurate and perhaps the legs may be disproportionate. DC Collectibles is just way too overall lanky which is tragic because that figure actually has some weight and craftsmanship that you can feel in-hand. But the McFarlane version overall looks like it could beat the living crap out of everyone and has a much more overall muscular/intimidating look, which is more realistic.

Great review and comparison!

Whihc version are you talking about? McFarlane or Collectibles for the City one?

Another great review. I love these two figures. The McFarlane version is “in my opinion” a better figure. I feel the other’s head is too small. I completely agree with the ability to stand. I have mine in a dynamic pose on top of a McFarlane vehicle, and his cape is a great way to stabilize him. Keep up the great content.

Tempted for that DKR one.

I bought both, I like the McFarlane more mainly for the head sculpt, abdominal plates and the bigger rifle, I bought the other one first not knowing McFarlane had made one, I dont mind having alternate or multiple versions of ''My favorite comic book character'' My McFarlane figure stands okay, Each individual copy may have some slight flaw in density of the plastic causing it to be off balance But I'm just guessing here, I got 45 different Darth Vader figures (LOL) so I'm glad McFarlane is making tons of Batman (and some other cool DC figures, Darksied, Death Metal Wonderwoman, Cyborg, and the 7 Evil Batmen from Dark Knights Metal) Keep them coming Todd !!!

The figure just needs bit more paint and I think it’s perfection. I didn’t have a problem standing mines up. Just add bit of paint to the ab area and little bit of silver dry brushing is what I did to mines and it’s an awesome looking figure

How the plastic feels in the mcfarlane figure? Does it feel "durable"? And one more question is completely made out of plastic or do you feel any other material added to it?

@@DarkspiderDavid91 thanks for replying, and awesome video btw. I hope you don't mind me asking some more question about it. First at all, the most important thing about a figure is the quality of the material in my humble opinion, for example if you can feel some "weight" while holding the figure and how sturdy it feels. Which of the two figures would you say it feels better when talking about the sturdiness and weight?

That's my favorite figure of all time

The paint is actually filled in on th DC Collectibles one, it actually has the metal pins painted in and other metal parts like in the neck and gauntlets, not to mention that beautiful carbon fiber finish on the shoulders and the belt is properly painted unlike the Mcfarlane one which is the incorrect color and also one solid color, (idk how he got that one so wrong). The proportions on the DC Collectibles are more game accurate, Mcfarlane has short thighs and his cowl is too wide and is overall too beefy, his proportions look closer to Arkham Origins Batman. The shape of Mcfarlane upper torso and chest is off too. Mcfarlane definitely has a much nicer mouth and face, cape is also nice but not game accurate at all.

Once he puts thigh cuts in his figures it’s game over for other companies
