Did they finally make a new suited body?
Too bad Mattel lost my business, especially with the superior Icons line.

Meh. I'm happy for the people that like this size but maybe if they had stuck to the 4 inch figures I'd still care. Thanks again Mattel.

I can not tell if that Joker is a new suit body or if they are reusing the Black Mask from Mattycollector body???
And did anyone notice that the Flash is from season 2 with the white chest logo?? |

I didn't even realize that these were going to be a thing. I do like that the first 6 don't have anything to do with an Arkham video game, that's what killed the 4 inch line for me.

Nice to see these coming out. Not sure I'll get any, but I'm really curious to see how they look in-person.
The Flash figure having the season 2 emblem is an interesting detail. I wonder when that change was made.

Yeah but unfortunately the cowl is still the early Season 1 version. Overall though, Flash doesn't look that bad. However, Arrow looks underwhelming. Almost like they got half way through the design process and just went "Eh, whatever."

Doesn't releasing a comic-based Joker in a line specifically set up for non-comic incarnations kind of defeat the purpose?

That's definitely the old suited body all over again. I really dislike the proportions there. The shoulders seem really slender and then the jacket sort of swoops out like a Christmas tree. Not my jam.
Is it just me, or is Arrow's bow the same style as before with the arrow permanently attached? If that's the case, it'll be no fun to pose since it's only half-drawn. |

Honestly, who the hell is coming up with this godawful crap? I understand that plastic is expensive but mattel's shorting arms now? REALLY?
I was ultrahyped to put some of these next to my marvel legends and select stuff but...lord these look like jokes for 20 dollars and i'm pretty sure i'd still be laughing if they were 10. Save us NECA! |

Meh. I already have a Green Arrow from the TV show and I'm not really interested in the TV Flash. I probably would have picked up the Endgame Joker, but I have grown to hate that suit buck they keep regurgitating over and over. From the images I've seen online I prefer this head sculpt over the Capullo Designer figure, but that tired, old suit buck kills it for me.

*sighs* I guess that much abused 3 3/4 inch line that I liked is officially gone.
Also, they changed the color of the Flash's chest logo. What's up with that? |

I was somewhat interested in The Flash; I like the swap for a white background, but those proportions and sculpting, at least in the pictures so far, aren't doing much for me.

In the beginning of Endgame, the entire Justice League was compromised by the Joker and Batman had to fight them all. He wore this "Justice Buster" suit to dispatch them but it only appeared in an issue or two. I think it came out around the same time as Age of Ultron was hitting theaters and it felt like DC trying to imitate the Hulkbuster.

I wish they'd do the 4 inch for the tv series to go with the classic movies and tv series too still, but aren't flash, arrow, and other DC tv show rights locked up for that scale already?
6 inch is still neat. How well do they compare to Marvel Legends cinematic figures? |

I didn't pick her up, but she looked ok. I think Batman looked best overall.

Found Flash, Arrow and Joker this morning in Denver at TRU. No Dawn of Justice figures though. I grabbed Arrow and Flash. Both figures have tight jounts and surprisingly none of them were stuck or gummy feeling. Flash is actually pretty nice but Arrow is as bad as he looks. He's just very bland overall, especially when compared to the Flash. The arrow isn't stuck to the bow but it does plug into the hand for those arrow firing poses the figure can't achieve.

This line is meant as a catch-all, not just for movie and television based figures, but video game and comic versions too (hence why we're getting a Calvin Ellis Superman and a Zero Year Batman too)
