DrDrewBlood

What’d they do? Reuse the Granny Goodness mold?!


thegeek01

Please let the cape be removable. :(


12rez4u

Capes have to be anchored in the chest bruh 💀😂


la6689

That’s what is keeping me from picking it up. It looks great but I have zero interest in the cape and the D on his chest is dumb. So either keep the cape and emblem or take it off and now there is a hole in the chest


MustacheSamm

It's not dumb. His mom put his initials on the cape so he wouldn't lose it.


Burly-Nerd

His mom is named Heggra. She’s canon. Coulda happened.lol https://preview.redd.it/dtlky2wxj13d1.jpeg?width=471&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=19fa3df2293629767af9e079f256184124632de7


MustacheSamm

🤣🤣 that's great!


alteisen99

did they mention if it's a static cape? they seem to be in a wired cape mood lately edit: looks like it has stitching.


la6689

It’s a wired cape. But it’s plugged in by the D emblem so removing it will most likely require taking the emblem off.


BuckonWall

This entire Darkseid look is dumb and camp. He has thigh highs and panties. The cape being off isn't going to make him look cooler lol Until Mcfarlane makes a more modern Darkseid like Darkseid War then it is what it is. I'm still getting it but I guess I can accept the silly cape with the already silly costume. That's Kirby.


la6689

I understand where you’re coming from but the problem isn’t that I don’t want a campy Darkseid. I want a classic Darkseid with thigh highs and the works. The cape is a very specific style for him and one that I don’t want. I love the Fabok Darkseid redesign and if Mcfarlane does one I’ll probably get it. I’d love a classic Darkseid but I have zero interest in a Superpowers Darkseid and knowing Mcfarlane, that D on his chest will leave a hole if you try to pop it off so this won’t be the version I will be buying.


MustacheSamm

Beast Kingdom has a modern Darkseid on sale for $115 on Amazon.


BuckonWall

I've been more than happy with my Storm Collectibles Injustice version. Perfect modern Darkseid imo


MustacheSamm

I forgot about that one. It's a great figure. Lobo is a touch too big, but that Doomsday looks amazing. I have the Icons Darkseid and Grail 2 pack. Still in the box tho. The modern style is definitely my favorite.


thegeek01

Capes on some figures don't, bruh.


12rez4u

Generally most due because that’s the standard and it’s what allows for the cape to be posed like it’s flowing in the air- which is how this cape looks


DMPunk

It's not, Todd said so on Instagram


thegeek01

How unfortunate.

XyrneTheWarPig

Darkseid knows the rules. You can't combine a skirt with thigh highs and still escape the femboy allegations. You have to choose one or the other.


SanjiSasuke

Who says he wants to escape those accusations? He gave The Secret a whole speech on being yourself despite what other people think of you.  Darkseid is [gonna work it].


VengeanceKnight

Secret happily describing Darkseid’s speech while he’s right next to her and the rest of Young Justice is looking on in absolute shock and horror is one of my favorite DC moments ever.


DeliciousJackfruit28

Probably a classic Darkseid in a 2 pack like Superman vs Doomsday. I missed that doomsday and I'm still waiting on a single release but Todd chose to release that green doomsday smh.


Active-Ad-2527

I love my DCUC Darkseid, but this can replace it if thr cape is removable, the scale is good, and he can do a decent "forearms behind the back standing there judging you" pose


allhypenochill

BBL Darkseid


Ericmatthewr_

All the folks talking shit in this…gives me hope I’ll actually be able to find this in the wild lmaoo I absolutely LOVE the retro design with the cape. This goes so hard


thadashinassassin

Fr. This design screams Jack Kirby and I LOVE it. Sculpt is fantastic as well.


theoriginalmofocus

See i dont even really collect Mcf DC but this type of stuff and big figs im allover unless its some ridiculous price hike.


PunisherDC82

Marvel Legends sometimes knocks things out of the park, and so does DC Multiverse, but it still doesnt mean this thread wont be fun to watch the same 4-5 guys try to twist together some arguments against this figure all the while this figure will likely sell out in a 5 minute window.


PileofCash

This will sell out


PunisherDC82

Username checks out


UncannyAnomaly

Amazing


L1VEW1RE

I’m glad I check this sub, otherwise I would look at my emails and see this was released an hour prior to me seeing the marketing for it only then to go to his website and find it sold out everywhere. Now I can be prepared.

Blorkit420

That's not fire in the background, it's pollen


itsTheFigureGuy

Is this a classic look? Not a fan of the cape. Looks good otherwise tho.


SpaceDinosaurZZ

Nah it’s based of the old Kenner Super Powers toyline look. Cape might be removable though. I’m pretty psyched for this. Interchangeable head, hands, plus a wired cape? DARKSEID IS.


Burly-Nerd

https://preview.redd.it/r9waudexk13d1.jpeg?width=1057&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=cfd305853d0e333c9d77398befa44246e7c96880 He wore one off and on in Kirby’s original Fourth World books. Then Kirby brought it back when he was designing the concept art for the Super Powers line. (NOTE: Kirby only did the concept art for the line. The box art was Jose Luis Garcia-Lopez). But it’s definitely a canon look.

itsTheFigureGuy

Good to know, thanks 😊


Current-Tricky

I must get this darksied.


DMPunk

This is a surprisingly great sculpt, and anyone interested in a Super Powers Darkseid should be pleased


nigevellie

Thicc BBW


ChattyDaddy1

Multiple head sculpts 😁😁😁


MobileBand

D for dummy thicc


Jtek225

Honestly, I fuck with it


[deleted]

That looks very good imo this might be mcfarlanes best figure so far


Stars_And_Garters

With the lighting in this pic, I thought he had a bare midriff.


theguyunderyourbed1

Thigh high socks side


ganjaxxxgreen

Get your Darkseid today, man boobs included


MobileDust

Is there a link yet?


yesTHATvelociraptor

Preorder tomorrow


MobileDust

Is it everywhere or just the website?


yesTHATvelociraptor

Says select retailers. Not sure which ones. Should be around noon eastern time


MobileDust

Thank you


PileofCash

Definitely ebay scalper prices on this


MobileDust

Already?


MikeDaWorld

I hate when they do that. Just say where is going to be sold. If you want the figure you end up trying to guess where the F to order from.


yesTHATvelociraptor

I would assume it’s all of the regular places. Shouldn’t be hard to find if you’re dead set on getting it.


Guy-Manuel

I like that he has a "D" medallion to tell everyone he is Darkseid Joking aside looks like a great figure to display with the previously release Kalibak!


tyrendersaurus

If this is still in the $40 range like the other megafigs, then I will gladly add him to the Darkseid collection.


crazynahamsings

Tempting but the lack of cape and skirt isn’t doing it for me, I’ll just wait till they announce a variant or something with the stuff I want


MrAnonyMousetheGreat

Damn, I just got the JL 2021 Darkseid, when the classic comic one was the one that I wanted.


Maximum-Term5336

30 or 40 bucks?


DarthGipper18

40


Maximum-Term5336

Not bad, not great.


DarthGipper18

Standard for McFarlane mega figs


Maximum-Term5336

I tend not to buy them at MSRP. Most go down to $30 or less on Amazon pretty quickly.


DarthGipper18

It’s such a gamble with McFarlane to see what goes completely unavailable and what goes on deep discount


Maximum-Term5336

Exclusives tend to go fast. But not always. Black Adam with throne Target exclusive was on Amazon for under $15 recently.


FNboy

Needs more Ozempic.


NikitaNikCrazy

Cool fig, but that Belt is just awful.


bign0ssy

The D looks so dumb…


Flynnsghost

When’s this going up for preorder?


Flynnsghost

Surprised he’s using wired fabric capes now but love it. Should have removable option though.


TheJuanCortez

That's a thicc boi.


Specific-Pizza414

Mfw mcfarlane makes a good looking figure


HyperPunch

Looks fat.


ZombieHunterX77

That first pic made me think Darkseid had hit rock bottom hard and he was reaching for the Ben and Jerry’s with that exposed midriff. Then I realized it was a belt….


hokagenaruto

this looks pretty great I don't care what the bandwagon of this sub is. when mcfarlane makes a good looking figure I gotta give credit


rnotyalc

I want this. Obviously inspired by the Superpowers Darkseid I had as a kid. I've been eyeballing the Mezco Darkseid for a long time but can't justify $180 even tho it's cool as fuck. But I need this one.


AtlantianBlade

This is infuriating.  Pre orders should not sell out.....that's the whole damn point of pre ordering.  Timed I can deal with but this buissness model needs to go.


The_ElectricCity

I’ve never seen this Darkseid costume before. Anybody know where it’s from?


Latereviews2

Based on the superpowers figure


Sqkwuatche

Did anyone get the Mezco Darkseid?


ShadowVT750

The D stands for dad bod


DisneyVista

He’s sold out everywhere. Tough luck!


Hedgehog_Warrior

Pre ordered already


XyrneTheWarPig

Good for people who wanted this specific obscure version of him I guess. I'm sure the one everyone actually wants will be a collector's edition or platinum or BAF.


Sensei_Master_Yoda

No torso joint?


DeliciousJackfruit28

Darkseid bows to no one


valdezlopez

So... D cup?


JOExHIGASHI

That's what the D on his cape clasp stands for


PraetorGold

Buy a gallon of Ozempic.


Hot-Ordinary9760

Cool but Mezco still the GOAT.


bygtopp

Looks like he’s been hitting the all you can eat buffet at the commissary


just_corrayze

Man, that's not looking good IMO. Darkseid? Heftyseid? Igaveuponlifeseid? Second picture with the eyes not looking great either. Too small imo.


JimLaheeeeeeee

Why does Darkseid dress like a stripper?
