OH MAN! YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!

Wouldn't be my first pic for a Deadman pose, but cool set. Definitely need to look into a JLD set one of these days.

I'm still trying to figure out why we can't play Nightwing in DCU though. :(

Very nice!

Spectacular paint jobs too.

More tempted to get into their DC game.

(And still sad over the loss of their Marvel game.)

No my fav version of Black Orchid, but very good to see her none the less

Great! Multiverse models as well.

I was half hoping for a Sea King version of Dead Man as well so that he could be used in JL Dark or to expand the Crime Syndicate.

Here some my criticism:

Isn't that their already made Superman, Bane, and Jean Grey?

Cant speak for the Superman pose or Jean Grey since I never saw Jean, but none of the Banes share a pose with Swampthing.

I can't see any of those, but Deadman is a pretty obvious rip from Sinestro/Green Lantern pose wise (including the swirly base)

I'd say Orchid is more Emma Frost-ish.

But yeah, well... They look good to me and I look forward to buying them.

I should start reading JL actually... But I'm wanting to finish Paul Dini's Zatanna first.

Given how two dimensional their sculpts are, there are only so many ways you can pose a person.

Has anyone had a problem getting hold of the Harley Quinn rebirth model? Pre-ordered mine online back in Feb and supposedly there was some kind of problem with that model (production? price? quantity? who know) and now KM and distributors are "in talks"

I received mine a couple of months ago. Not actually opened it yet so will see if I can dig it out and check the quality.

Apparently something really super super weird has gone wrong with "Kingsley Distribution" that has meant that, if your local shop orders from them, basically you're not getting the model.

Best to cancel and like, buy it off of ebay or somewhere that actually has it in stock.

Interesting, thanks. I will make some enquires.

I don’t think we ever got that one here either. Their distribution issue are definitely one of the factors that has all but killed the game in our area. When we do get the “new” stuff it’s usually a month or two late.

I got mine. I live in the US so it was obnoxiously late as their distribution here always is. No issues at all with the models though.

New models from Essen:

Grundy, Scarecrow and Manbat (finally)

I like em, gonna need that new Scarecrow the most out of those

Looking to give this game another shot soon. Despite invalidating nearly my entire collection, the Standard format is really what I wanted out of 2nd edition.

What in your collection was invalidated?

A recent rule / website change has invalidated any models that do not have a second edition card available on the website (so all metal medals and a few resin ones) from organised tournaments. Some tournament organisers may still allow them though.

Personally, I must have had at least 100 metal models that are no longer valid (I dread to do an actual count as I went waaaay overboard on batman, have almost all the resins as well).

I’ve not heard from a single TO who plans to run the limited format. Everyone plans to run the Eternal/Legacy rules. But yeah, I likewise had my entire collection invalidated as well by the “standard” rules.

I'm one of the only TOs in my country (and I am close friends with the others) and I can safely say Eternal may as well be the standard in that regard. Once all crews are actually playable with enough options, maybe then we'll reconsider, but as is its just blatantly unfair. This is the attitude with everyone I've spoken to internationally as well

On the new models, they all look great. I'll be starting a new crew this year, either Scarecrow or Court (who also have new models there) depending on the rules, but probably Scarecrow.

Scarecrow’s Scythe certainly frightens me. That’s really skinny for the fragility of their resin. Man Bats arms a bit as well, just for the size of the wings supported only by the shoulders, but those are probably ok.

Which I get, but feels like a shame. I mean, I get it, but as a game I'd much rather play the Standard format than Eternal. It's pretty clear that they just didn't really want to bother redesigning most of the backlog of redundant models they built up over the years and they're not designing 2nd edition stuff with any real regard for what came before. Eternal is just quickly going to devolve into arguments over the best way to ban things like Riddler bots and the like and with most of those models essentially unavailable to new players, making Eternal the go to format for more than a year or so is going to cripple growth.

I'm not exactly happy about Standard. I can count the number of Standard legal models I own on two hands and half of them are really only for the DCU game. Given how small of a model count the game actually has though, I'd just rather start fresh with 2nd edition than try and force unsupported models to work. I'd rather see people play any number of the old Green Arrow sculpts as the current Green Arrow rules than fuss around with a meta defined by out of print models. It's not ideal, but as a game, I'm just way more enticed to play Standard than Eternal.

I see, thats unfortunate. Luckily for me I only get to play rarely and even then its with the friends that got me in the game. I dont even think I have a full team for the new edition with that ruling though.

Resin models I have are; Deathstroke, Thomas Wayne Batman, Batfleck (Knightmare) and the Dark Knights who cant be run as a full team in Batman, though that does mean I have a full team for a game that I dont play lol.

Waiting for Militia to be updated.

I think you are being a little to gloom and doom. As Rygnan and talking to my local TO, everyone is doing Eternal format for now. Too many crews are unplayable in standard. It may be a year or two before TOs even start looking at switching. I also wouldn't panic on all you metal figures being useless. A number of metal releases have seen resin releases. The only figures I would be concerned about are some of the Arkham Asylum/Arkham City game. Those are some of Knights oldest and crudest figs. Think the Arkham Knight figs are safe since we've already seen AK Nyssa in the new booklet that comes with the new starter boxes.

Don't think I am being negative at all. Someone made a post about all their models being invalidated, someone else asked why they were now invalid and I explained. Didn't say anything on my personal feelings of the rule change in my post.

The only organised events near to where I live seem to be allowing Eternal until the end of the year after which they may switch to the official Batmatch rules.

New models and sets up today for preorder.



The new version of Damian is a henchmen, time for a Nightwing, Red Hood and Robin Team?

He’s a Free Agent, works for BatB, League, and another I forget off hand.
