DC Prime and DC Luchadores Action Figures from DC Collectibles

Perhaps news of their demise was....premature.

I don’t know if I want them...but they are fun looking.

The lack of a Bane figure for this first lineup feels like a missed opportunity.

God damn it! No! What the hell, DCC? What happened to the Essentials you were so committed to? You can't even get out the Green Lantern that you announced IN 2017???

You better have more DC Essentials on display, or- well, I can't really boycott a company that no longer sells a single thing I want. But if they're not even releasing one of the figures they began the line with announcing...

I'm genuinely upset. I hope they announce more before I wake, or on display at the convention. DCC has let me down with their Arkham figures, their Designer figures, their movie figures and their Icons figures, all of which I committed to with my own money. If I'm being premature then I apologise for overreacting, but I've been burned so many times by the one company who has sold DC figures I actually like. It's aggravating.

If this is really everything, then I'll be glad to sell off all my DCC figures and make the jump to McFarlane. My wallet will thank me for the extra cash.

And until this moment I never knew I ever needed Luchador Superfriends...

Trust me, if anything you're underreacting haha. DCC has so many great ideas they squander or abandon, it's like they have no faith in their own products. That said, that Batman is cool, but I reaaaaaally wish he had a cooler batsymbol...

Edit: Batman is 9 inches tall!?!?! Wow, what else are you doing that's stupid and terrible DCC?

These look super fun and they look good. I'll be getting them

They will still release all the previously announced DC essentials, right?

I'm sure we eventually will get one. Bain is of Spanish/Latina decent ( Not sure what the politically correct terms are, sorry) I think and he already kinda looks like a luchadore

Who is metallo. Is he from the Batsman TMNT crossover

He's a Superman cyborg villain with a chunk of kryptonite in his core, usually where his heart would be.

Is that a multi-purpose cape that I see on Prime Batman? I'm sold

Bane is an odd omission.

Incredibly neither the Joker nor Harley Quinn are part of the line-up.

Larger scale means larger markup, presumably. I wish they'd stick with 1/12 scale, but maybe the larger size appeals to a broader market...?

Edit: I had to look up "luchadores" for an explanation of what it means. As a Canuck it leaves me cold.

There were several Icons figures (like a wave and a half) that were completely cancelled when they abandoned the line. We'd seen them too, it wasn't just a list of names.
Bane is from a fictional country that is more or less plopped right next to Cuba, so basically he's Cuban which would make him latino. His design was very deliberately inspired by luchador costumes.

9 inch line? They haven't even figured out how to work their 6 inch ones yet.

ha....these actually do look like a lot of fun...i like the wonder woman and cheetah..(who i thought at first might have been Vixen)

I don't think Bane would enjoy being called Latina.

That Batman does look pretty cool! I doubt I'll get it, but it's neat. I'm wondering what Supes and Wonder Woman will look like. Cause honestly, that's probably as far as that line will get.

... the f*** is this?

$125 for the batman? Are they f***ing high?

What makes the folks at DC think their line is better than Mezco, SH Figuarts? Granted, this is 9 inches, not 6, but these match Play Arts Kai prices when their stuff was at its peak. What are they thinking??

where did you see a price??

Wow that line is gonna die fast.

$125!? This is why they should leave it to the pros (i.e. NECA).
