00:00Sometimes two halves don't always make a whole.
00:03Here's a look at McFarlane Toys, DC Multiverse, DC Silver Age, Two-Face.
00:24Harvey Dent has led a deeply conflicted life,
00:27possessing a split personality that veers between the two extremes of good and evil.
00:30Dent goes by the name of Two-Face.
00:32It's an apt description of his physical appearance,
00:34scarred by acid into an outwardly becoming the monster he once hid away from the world.
00:39Two-Face has become a tragic figure,
00:41and one of Batman's most unpredictable and dangerous opponents.
00:44Care to flip to find out the fate of Gotham City's crime fighter?
00:47Wow.
00:48Before we get a closer look at the new DC Multiverse, Silver Age, Two-Face,
00:52let's grab the tape measure and see how tall the figure stands.
00:54Now, I did actually find this one on the Facebook selling group.
00:56I bought this from the seller of Popeye the Toy Man.
00:59Yeah, if you guys would like to get your hands on some new DC Multiverse figures,
01:02check out Popeye the Toy Man.
01:03I'll provide links down below in the video description.
01:05As for the height of Two-Face,
01:06Harvey seems to stand at about seven inches in height.
01:09That translates the ad to a figure that's about 17 and a half centimeters tall.
01:14As for other figures, let's bring in the bats.
01:16This happens to be, of course, Batman from the Nightfall.
01:18It always seems to be the one I go to.
01:20Let's bring in also some other villains.
01:21Here's what Two-Face looks like along with both the Penguin and also Mr. Freeze.
01:26And seeing as I did, I also still happen to have them as part of my collection.
01:29I wanted to bring in the Mattel DC, what, DC Universe?
01:32DC Universe Classics Two-Face?
01:34For the time, it was a fine-looking figure.
01:35I mean, obviously, they used the body again for multiple releases.
01:38But you can see, like, very much similar cues get carried over from the DC Universe days of Two-Face
01:43to now the one that we're getting from Todd and his team.
01:45Now, considering this is a McFarlane toys digital release,
01:48the figure does also come in clue with a scratch card.
01:50Oh, what lotters will we win?
01:51And let's go ahead and actually, I'll just take myself my nail clippers here.
01:55I'm just going to scratch away the instructions.
01:57By the way, you go to www.amtd.gg to download the McFarlane Toys digital viewer app for your Mac or PC.
02:05Scratch the above, which I'm about to do in a second, to reveal your one-time use code.
02:10Create your account and log in.
02:11Then click to redeem one in the top left corner of the screen
02:14and follow the instructions in the pop-up window.
02:17Did everybody get that?
02:18I hope everybody got that.
02:19Anyways, though, let's go ahead and just scratch away.
02:21Obviously, this will also be only eligible for one individual.
02:24You don't have to tell me who that individual is.
02:26Don't be the one that puts your hand up and says,
02:28Oh, it was me. It was me. It was me.
02:29There's your code right there.
02:31I want to make sure that you can read that that's not...
02:33Is that a W? That's a W and an I.
02:35A W and an I.
02:37Got that?
02:38Get it? Got it?
02:39Oh, good.
02:40Okay, let's move it off to the side.
02:41The figure does also come in clue with a trading card,
02:43although the trading card doesn't look at all like the Harvey Dent that we're getting with this release.
02:46And actual fact, there is two releases of Two-Face so far.
02:50I would love if they just churn out like multiples of these things with different color schemes.
02:55By the way, though, just between you and me, don't tell anybody else.
02:57We're going to be also looking at this Two-Face in an upcoming review.
03:01Shh! Don't tell everybody.
03:02But I love the look of the card.
03:04I love that it's Silver Age Two-Face as well.
03:06On the back of the card, the debut...
03:09Boy, I had a hard time getting that out.
03:10The debut is Detective Comics Volume 1, number 66, dating as far back as August 1942.
03:18If the read-up looks good, it happens to be the same one that this person with a soothed voice read at the beginning of this video.
03:24I'm going to put that card off to the side.
03:26And I'm sure, though, when we will be looking at the other Two-Face,
03:28a similar, in fact, identical card will also be coming to clue with the figure as well.
03:32Now, though, I hate to be the bearer of the bad news, but when flipping the coin, it came up bad.
03:36Unfortunately, the figure doesn't come in clue with any other thing than the coin that's already molded to his hand.
03:40Two-Face, yes, does, in fact, come in clue with also a display stand.
03:43It's no real different than the regular display stands we've got.
03:46Other than the treatment printed on the top here, we've got McFarlane Toys Digital.
03:50I don't know why I'm riding my hand across it.
03:52It does actually feel like it's a little bit of a texturing done to it,
03:55but a neighboring peg to the far corner that can plug into either one of Harvey's boots or shoes or flip-flops.
04:00I guess not really flip-flops.
04:02Let's move back off to the side, and let's establish how good of a figure this actually is.
04:06I have been waiting a while for this Two-Face to be released.
04:08I mean, you don't really have to wait all that while when it comes to McFarlane Toys releases, for that matter.
04:13I mean, it seems like they announce it one week, and then just only a week later,
04:17these things start to show up in shelves.
04:19Granted, though, as a Canadian collector, you know me.
04:22Couldn't find this guy in the wild in the stores,
04:24but luckily I did, again, find this from the Facebook selling group.
04:27Again, though, to be the bearer of the bad news,
04:29the figure it sadly only comes included with one accessory,
04:31and the one accessory is already planted, molded to the ends of his fingers.
04:35Yeah, Two-Face does come included with a flippable coin,
04:37although not much flipping is going to happen this time around.
04:40When you also look at the coin, too,
04:42it doesn't look like there's really much in the way of printing on either side of it.
04:45Now, I know for the size of this coin, it would be next to impossible to print heads or tails,
04:51or heads and heads with a scratching on the one side.
04:53Still, though, it's nice that they included the coin.
04:55I can't expect them to have the coin separately,
04:57because, oh man, had they included a coin as a separate accessory,
05:01this guy would have lost it right away.
05:04I don't mind that necessarily the coin is molded to his fingers and his thumb.
05:08I would have rather, though, that they could have also included a secondary hand
05:12that didn't have this at all.
05:13So you could have then chose for yourself,
05:15if you want to have him displayed, for example, with a coin,
05:18you could do that.
05:19If you didn't want to have him with always a coin in his hand to flip,
05:21you could just pop that off and swap it out with a different hand instead.
05:25It's not even really a case either that you can use another hand from a DC multiverse figure,
05:29unless you happen to have one that happens to be this red color.
05:32It's very few and far between.
05:34The coloring, though, for his head sculpt and the head sculpt alone is fantastic.
05:39If you like the Silver Age look to Too Faced,
05:41I mean, I prefer really Too Faced to have hair on the side of his head.
05:44I know, you know, from a practical standpoint,
05:46if someone's going to be burned that horribly like that,
05:49the chances of hair growth probably after that won't happen at all.
05:52But I like the idea of having crazier hair on one side for Too Faced
05:55and then sort of the slicked back hairstyle on the other.
05:59The only thing I could really, though, offer up as a bit of a criticism is,
06:02while I do like the scarred look on the one side of his face,
06:04I do feel like, though, the regular skin color is a little too light,
06:08had they only maybe just darkened that just a little bit.
06:11To, though, be fair, if we look at the DC Universe Classics version of Too Faced,
06:15well, again, this one would have had the pinstriping.
06:17This one doesn't have the pinstriping.
06:19You can have, you can certainly see there's very similar inspirations there.
06:22I mean, look at the scarred face on this guy.
06:26When was the last time I had a look at this figure?
06:27Probably at least about 10 years or so ago.
06:30But you can see, like, one side, well, this side actually is not really white.
06:33It looks kind of more like an off-grayish white.
06:35But then clean white on the one side, dark jet black on the other.
06:39And, of course, they alternated the coloring of the tie.
06:42Now, again, there's going to be the other release that's going to have the orange shirt
06:45or the orange jacket that we will be looking at in an upcoming review.
06:48But, yeah, I love the look of this Too Faced.
06:51More classic stuff.
06:52And it really does seem to be the case with McFarlane Toys,
06:54that as we all know, the company's going to be losing the license soon.
06:57And it seems like they are churning out some of the best figures they've done in years.
07:01And it happens to be so sadly coming at the end of the figure's lifespan.
07:06For the rest of the figures, obviously, for the lower legs, it's just basically wearing suits.
07:10I would imagine, though, they're probably going to be using this body again,
07:12maybe for a black mask, for example.
07:14It's funny, though, I say that,
07:15because black mask was also using the same body as the Too Faced that's just over there.
07:19Well, this Too Faced right here.
07:22For the figure's articulation, though,
07:23starting first, obviously, with Too Faced's head,
07:26that's going to rotate all the way around.
07:28It loses some of the illusion, obviously,
07:30because he can't be scarred.
07:31I mean, he's scarred up the middle of the neck.
07:33The kind of thing that's funny, though,
07:34is that when you're looking at the neck color,
07:36I mean, it's pretty close to the head,
07:38although the neck is just a little bit shinier.
07:40Not that that's a big deal at all.
07:42Head can, of course, rock back and forth as well.
07:45I probably would likely display the figure with the coin in his hand like this,
07:48wondering, wondering if he should find the fate through flipping a coin.
07:51For his upper torso,
07:54his upper torso is actually on a very generous ball joint,
07:56despite the fact that his jacket covers over so much more of that.
08:00The jacket is a pretty soft plastic that they put basically over a regular,
08:04I would imagine, DC Multiverse body.
08:06The arms, of course, rotate all the way around.
08:08You can take those arms, by the way, too, in case you're curious,
08:10and, yeah, you can give them a T-pose.
08:12Hinge them out at 90 degrees.
08:14The figure does have a swivel cut here on the good,
08:16a swivel cut here on the bad.
08:18The figure does also have a double hinge on his elbow.
08:20The hands rotate all the way around,
08:22whether you want to use this hand or the other hand here.
08:25Legs split up, and they split pretty generously, too,
08:28despite even having the jacket going as low as it does.
08:31Yeah, he can almost do a Van Damme.
08:33Take the legs, of course, moving forward.
08:35You can move them back.
08:36A little bit of a swivel at the top of the thigh.
08:38One thing that's kind of also interesting,
08:39I want to point out before I forget my train of thought,
08:42the top of the jacket is actually more of a smoother plastic.
08:45See that?
08:45Not that you can really gauge that by this guy running his thumb across that.
08:49That's kind of disturbing.
08:50Stop that.
08:51But down below, though, what's interesting is that if you look at the lower legs,
08:54the lower legs seem like they're striped.
08:57And I don't know, again, if maybe they have maybe used,
09:00maybe they have even, in fact, used this from like a Joker, for example.
09:03But like down below here,
09:04it's clearly more sculpted differently than the top of his jacket.
09:07It's a little bit of a breakup because it does kind of mean that he's shopped at two different stores.
09:11When I was first buying a suit like years ago,
09:14I remember going into a Moors, I think it was Moors, the suit people.
09:17And the guy was trying to explain to me that they don't sell suits as one set.
09:20You have to buy the jacket, then you have to buy the pants.
09:22And I'm thinking to myself, why would you sell a suit as separate pieces?
09:26But then the guy that was convincing me,
09:28even though he had, unfortunately, hair weaves, like little hair plugs,
09:32not that that was really the big thing that kind of I took away from,
09:34but it was just weird the fact he was trying to sell me
09:36on like pants that didn't look the same color as the jacket.
09:39I was thinking to myself, like, why wouldn't you have not just sold the suit together?
09:43What were we talking about here?
09:44Oh, right, his pants.
09:46His pants don't have much in the way of swivel at the top.
09:48They do, however, though, have a double hinge in his knee.
09:50And he's got articulation here in his feet.
09:53Not only can you move up, obviously, up and down.
09:55You can also rock them back and forth.
09:57And the figure does also have toe articulation as well.
10:00One thing to note, too, is that I do like that they added a little bit of a gap space
10:04between the bottom cuff of his leg and where his feet start.
10:07Now, where his shoes now have a little bit of allotment,
10:10it's a lot easier to move the feet up and down.
10:12I really don't like when companies continue, not all the companies,
10:15some companies do that, where they have the pant leg going so low to the feet
10:18that you can't move the shoes up and down.
10:21This one, there's a little bit of freedom because there's a gap space right there.
10:25Oh, man, oh, man.
10:26What a great looking Two-Face.
10:28Now, again, like this guy was, well, actually,
10:30he was basically released in two figures basically at the exact same time.
10:33And there's the black and white treatment that we obviously wrapped up the review here with.
10:37Why is this guy now having a hard time to stand?
10:39And then, of course, there's also going to be the orange jacket version.
10:42Now, I don't want to be starting things by saying this,
10:45but I feel like maybe, let's just get this guy on a display stand.
10:48I feel like maybe I'm going to be liking the other one just a little bit more.
10:51I think if you're going to go crazy when it comes to Two-Face, go all out.
10:55I mean, some people really like the fact that good and evil are represented by black and white.
10:59I prefer, though, Two-Face to be all out, all crazy.
11:02And I do actually like the fact that when it comes to Two-Face,
11:04I mean, clearly, I know Two-Face has had a black and white jacket treatment before.
11:09He's done it also in the animated series of Batman.
11:11But I also really like that to look at this guy, it reminds me a lot of this guy.
11:15And one of my favorite times of collecting the DC figures
11:17happened to be the stuff that we're getting from Mattel.
11:20Two-Face is a fine-looking figure.
11:22Truth be told, though, I really wish that the figure could have come in clear with some accessories.
11:25I mean, one thing also to note as well is, clearly for the mandate,
11:29the figure can't have any guns in his hand.
11:31It's funny, though, it's funny that it happened to have this figure now still in the frame.
11:35Because that figure also came in clear with a Tommy gun.
11:38You know, the Tommy gun is a little warped.
11:40The thing about it, though, is that you can use, if you happen to have this figure,
11:43you can get the Tommy gun.
11:44Oh, wait, are you going to do it?
11:45You can take the Tommy gun, yeah, and put it into his hand.
11:48And it seems to be the perfect fit.
11:50So while the bag, this guy's been locked away in a bag prison so many years,
11:53I don't think his Tommy gun will be, though.
11:55Instead, it's going to be displayed with the one that we get now from McFarlane Toys.
11:59Yeah, yeah, I know.
12:00The Tommy gun wasn't really included with Two-Face,
12:02but it looked too good to put back in the bag.
12:04That's where the other Two-Face is right now.
12:07Two-Face, you'll probably be coming out for the other review of him.
12:10Now, the one thing, unfortunately, that's a bit of a bummer when it comes to the figure,
12:13is not so much the fact that, yeah, he didn't come include with a gun.
12:16I know that guns are big no-no.
12:18But had they maybe included a secondary hand so that you didn't always have to have the figure
12:23displayed with a coin in his hand?
12:25I know it's one thing that Two-Faces often do come with.
12:27It's so much simpler than having a standalone coin.
12:31Because, you know, you can't just put a coin separately.
12:34Although the DC Direct one did a really neat one where it actually had a flipping coin.
12:38I might actually bring that one in when we had a look at the other Two-Face.
12:40But, you know, I know it's simpler and it's less likely to be lost had they just molded
12:45it to his hand.
12:45I get that.
12:46But maybe they could have also just included a secondary hand.
12:49So if you didn't want to always have the figure displayed with a coin.
12:52I know he's obsessed with coins.
12:53But, yeah, it'd be nice for a change every once in a while.
12:56Oh, I see what I did there.
12:57Coin change.
12:59Nobody else got that.
13:00What do you guys, though, think of Two-Face?
13:02Let me know down below in the comment section.
13:03Is this an instant pickup?
13:05Or are you guys maybe holding off and getting the other digital?
13:08Which is actually kind of funny, though,
13:09because I think this is the Platinum Edition Two-Face.
13:12And yet, though, the other Two-Face that has the orange and purple jacket,
13:15I think it's just the regular release of the DC Multiverse
13:18or the McFarlane Toys digital version.
13:20So we're also going to be kind of looking at them
13:22kind of in somewhat an opposite order.
13:24But which one do you guys end up picking up?
13:26Let me know down below in the comment section.
13:28Again, if you guys are interested and would like to get this one for yourself,
13:31I did find this on the Facebook selling group.
13:33I know, yes, you could probably easily find this through other means also.
13:36But, I mean, like as a Canadian collector,
13:37I mean, what good, what chance do I really have
13:39to find this in the wild?
13:40I found this, though, through the Facebook selling group.
13:42And I found this through this seller, Popeye the Toyman.
13:45If you guys did enjoy this video, do it a solid.
13:46Throw it a like.
13:47You guys want to stick around for more so?
13:49Yeah, I hope so.
13:50Hit that subscribe.
13:51Turn on that bell.
13:52And, of course, as always, come back.
13:54As always, thanks for watching.
13:56See you guys next time.
13:57See you.
13:58Keep playing.
14:07Bye.
14:10Bye.
14:15You.
14:15High.
