Mafex BVS Wonder Woman Action Figure

Mafex BVS Wonder Woman Action Figure

stood toe-to-toe with the Cave Troll
Welcome to a review of the Mafex BVS Wonder Woman Action Figure from Medicom.

Would you believe that this particular figure was purchased in 2015 prior to the release of Batman vs Superman, and just arrived a week ago?

Never again.

Anyway, this is Mafex's recreation of Wonder Woman as portrayed by the beautiful Gal Gadot in the mess that is Batman vs Superman.

Personally we felt that Gal Gadot's Wonder Woman was one of THE best things to come from BvS, and we're really looking forward to her solo movie this year - despite the recent criticisms which have shifted from the sizeof her breasts to her apparent lack of underarm hair.

Will Arnett is the greatest Batman EVER!!!

Highlights include:

  • Robin (Michael Sera) - not so adorable, kinda gross
  • Barbara Gordon (Rosario Dawson) - as police commissioner
  • Batman versus Superman - which kinda hurt the Joker's feelings.apparently Batman is not exclusive)
  • Really, really, REALLY cool Batplane(?) Masterbuild
The Lego Batman movie is slated for release in February 2017.

Batman versus Superman - BVS - Battle Armor Batman

One of the harshest criticisms received by the Batman versus Superman movie is that you did not have to watch the movie, you could just watch the trailers. We agree. There are things that DC/WB's marketing team just shouldn't have just revealed on the onset. They simply gave away too much.

And one of the things they should not have revealed in our opinion was the Dark Knight Returns inspired Battle Armor of Batman.

They should have stopped at eyes glowing in the dark and left the rest of the reveal for us to wait for anxiously til the movie comes out.

Part of the fun of waiting for a movie to come out - especially a comic book movie - is the waiting.

Batman versus Superman review: World's Finest Disaster

This is our sister blog's take on Batman versus Superman:

"Batman versus Superman has officially made a respectable US$82 million from ticket sale, and is projected to have an opening weekend return of US$170M - this despite the plethora of negative reviews that has plagued its release.

Unfortunately, this is another one of those bad reviews. In a nutshell we believe that DC and Zach Synder both gave in to the public pressure and criticism that followed Man of Steel (2013), and created an apologist version of what could have been a great movie.

And it wasn't a fun ride either. It was two hours worth of flipping screens with probably no more than four lines of dialogue exchanged between cardboard characters prior to a rather unimpressive gladiator match and another few minutes of city-wide carnage with supposedly no casualties.

So here's our take on why it didn't work, what did work, and what we feel needs to be changed if DC doesn't want to follow Michael Bay's mindless money making Transformers movies."

Petron Armored Batman Lamp

Well. Batman versus Superman: Dawn of Justice has finally come out. The good news is, Batffleck did a better job than he did in Daredevil.

The bad news is, Daredevil was a better movie than Batman versus Superman.

We'll save our review for a later date on our sister site.

Bale is still our Batman.

We actually got this lamp a few weeks back when we fueled up at Petron. We paid an additional PhP 200 (Roughly US$ 4.26) after gasing up past the PhP 1,000 (Roughly US$ 21.28). But we didn't want to sound like a Petron PR piece so we held back a bit - and because this isn't a PR piece unless we missed the paycheck.

We love it and this will be short.

BvS Multiverse Wonder Woman

So. DC's risk-all stab into the super-hero movie business happens in a couple of weeks and we get to see whether or not Batfleck and casting Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman were good ideas.

We won't delve too much into the origin or background of the BvS Wonder Woman because her movie history is still being built. From what we know, Princess Diana is still an Amazon. The Amazons have abandoned their god-given mandate to protect mankind because they've grown to see mankind as being unworthy of their protection. Diana wants to change that and is out to discover for herself whether or not mankind is worthy.
