So the 3.752 figures have clear plastic joints as well. What is DCD's deal with the clear plastic? Is it cheaper to produce or something? Or they secretly like seeing us cry?

They must not think we will take them out of the package.
Darn you sealed package collectors!!!

Mastersteef I'm glad that someone tried this. I was thinking of doing the same thing to my figures. The joints are pretty stiff.
My Stewart's ankles have too much paint on them that they are fused at the joint.

Cool pics Gold Bug. I still wish they weren't 3.75 scale. The only thing they match is ARAG joes and other DC IH figs. I want to mix them with my Marvel Universe & Modern Era Joes. Why are all of the bad guys so tall yet humans not so much? That and the fact that they are breaking at an alarming rate keep me from wanting these. Maybe if they do any characters that are not Green lantern.

I don't think Rhode Island Comic Con would be the place to premiere an exclusive. They usually only do "big" cons.

How big is the con?

Pretty much the only mucho exclusive cons are SDCC and NYCC. A few others like C2E2 or ECCC might have some minor ones. Someone can correct me... I've never been to a con.

Almost no articulation. Maybe they will be the right size to fit with marvel universe

Injustice Action Figures Let You Plan Superhero Fights in Your Bedroom

Looks like we're getting 3.75" Injustice: Gods Among Us figures.

This makes me happy.

This is fantastic news! Lots of potential here. Great choice of characters for the first two sets too.

Big Bad Toy Store has the figures up here: DC Injustice 3.75" at BigBadToyStore


Upon closer examination, I'm not liking the figures a whole lot. I wish they would have gone for a traditional look for Wonder Woman. She's not even recognizable (braided hair, no gold bracelets/wrist bands, no classic color combination, is armor clad, no lasso, etc.) And not to be perverted, and the picture quality may just be poor, but is that a detail/embellishment over her hoo-ha? Yikes if that is a feature.

I'd be interested if they were the classic versions too. Leave it to these idiots to shoot themselves in the foot every chance they get.

I've been to about a dozen and that sounds about right. SDCC and NYCC always have exclusives from the major toy manufacturers as well as indy designers and smaller companies. Mid range cons like ECCC, Dragon Con, etc usually have exclusives from smaller or local companies and the occassional Hasbro/Mattel exclusive (or they offer up left overs from SDCC/NYCC).

It's usually not population of the area, it's the capacity of the con. SDCC runs about 125k and NYCC isn't too far behind. I think C2E2 and Dragon Con may fall into a category just below the two big cons. ECCC may leak into 8k to 10k range. The next SDCC is in July.

These figs look to be decent quality for DC. I may actually get the Wonder Woman/Solomon Grundy pack (Im a huge Grundy fan and WW looks pretty cool too)...

I realize that these are DC Collectibles, but it still boggles my mind that Mattel doesn't realize the popularity of lines like MU & Star Wars and make better quality figs. If Dark Knight Rises had MU articulation I would have spent mega bucks instead of the bare minimum on a tumbler and the Battle for Gotham 5 pack...

So the thread about the new Green Arrow Injustice figure got me thinking about how it's lame that the DC 3.75 my be getting better articulation and sculpts but aside from the Green Lantern ones a few posts back they have chosen relatively unknown variations on the character design and I wish that they change that soon.

The Injustice Green Arrow and Deathstroke:


What I think they should look like:


The articulation may be better but I think designwise Mattel was doing it better in the Infinite Heroes era.

Mind you these are based on the video game. I'm pretty sure the designers have little-to-no design input (the figures do look a bit different than the character models in-game but that may be the "little" input they get).

Oh I had no idea they were based on a game, that makes it a little better. I kinda thought they were just riffing on character design the way some toys do like orange Batmen and what not.
