Remember to take sexy pictures when you get it. I'm waiting for a clearance because I am not loaded on cash, or I most def would!

I'll do a side by side compare with my DCUCs when I get it. Superman vs. Ultraman, Batman vs. Owlman, Wonder Woman vs. Super Woman, Green Lantern vs. Power Ring and the Flash vs. Jesse Quick. I think someone already did action shots with some of the DC stars earlier in this thread.

Tiberius · 08-29-2011, 09:10 PM

I hate how no places around here carry DCUC except for Winners. Walmart Canada doesn't carry them, and TRU is to far away to do regular trips. The line may have done better if it was made available in Walmart Canada, Zellers, Superstore, ect.

thechris · 08-29-2011, 09:16 PM

Toys R Us carries them here, too, but not the express ones. It's weird. Walmart and Superstore carried the DC Infinite Heroes line but not Universe Classics. I don't recall seeing DCIH at Zellers, though.

Tiberius · 08-29-2011, 09:19 PM

Saw DCIH at Zellers and Superstore. TRU carries everything but it just to far to do weekly checks. I was lucky enough to find Kyle Rayner when I did for 14.99. Felt nice to pay American prices for once.

Do Boy · 08-29-2011, 09:39 PM

I'll only be picking this up if it hits clearance like the GL 5 pack did ($25).

thechris · 08-29-2011, 09:41 PM

What's your Winners carrying right now for DCUC? I've seen the 75th Anniversary Superman, Raven, Starman, Golden Pharaoh, the Question and Cyclotron so far. Specifically I'm looking for Katma Tui and Tim Drake.

I've got the big 7 (Superman, classic Wonder Woman, Flash, Green Lantern (Hal Jordan), Aquaman, J'onn J'onnz and Batman (black and gray).

I'm still looking for a Tim Drake to finish my Teen Titans set.

I also have Hawkman, Hourman, Spectre and Green Lantern(Alan Scott) for the JSA but I'm missing Dr. Fate and Sandman. Also waiting on Al Pratt and Jay Garrick.

I've also got most of the Legion of Doom: Captain Cold, Lex Luthor, Gorilla Grodd, Solomon Grundy, Bizarro, Black Manta, classic Brainiac, Cheetah, Riddler, Scarecrow and Sinestro. Just waiting on Toyman and still missing Giganta.

I've got for trade the DC Superheroes Clayface and the SDCC Exclusive Lobo (sans Spuds McKenzie, yeah I know that's not his name but at this point, I'm too lazy to google it even though I put in the time to type this sentence explaining it)

Yeah, that's a good collection. Grodd, Giganta and Solomon Grundy are the most expensive BAFs.

Tiberius · 08-29-2011, 10:07 PM

I got Grodd for 15 bucks! LOL

That's awesome man, I think I paid around $40 for mine which is a steal nowadays. I see him going for around 60+ all the time.

Tiberius · 08-29-2011, 10:15 PM

I'd love myself a Solomon Grundy. I need Torso/crotch and head for Darkseid. Crotch for Chemo. I'm watching Justice League and just watched the episode with Dr Fate and Solomon grundy teaming up with Aquamang. Yea, Solomon Grundy is my next BAF, that's for sure.

thechris · 08-29-2011, 10:17 PM

Grundy's pricey. Just saw him go for around $70 on eBay and that's pretty low. I bought him in a big lot, thankfully. I liked it when Grundy teamed with the League and Dr. Fate to take on that Cthulhu clone. What a great homage to H.P. Lovecraft, one of my favourite authors of all time.

Tiberius · 08-29-2011, 10:19 PM

I may just end up trading some random BAF parts I have and have no interest in collecting. I passed on a metamorpho for 30 bucks...I'm a tard.

thechris · 08-29-2011, 10:25 PM

That's a good price. I almost passed on him myself because he was fully assembled and I thought that was the way he always looked. I wasn't aware that you could remove those extra deformed limbs, so I was pleasantly surprised.

BTW, if you're looking to score the Lantern Corps, you should check out the STEL.

I'm a sucker for scale, and he is just WAY to big. I will be getting the DC Direct one for sure though!

xhavoc86 · 08-29-2011, 11:12 PM

Sadly, I saw two packs of boxes of these with swapped out crappy figures at my Walmart.

They had like 4 when I was there. But that was MONTHS ago. I could go check later on today if you like?

Prowl 2009 · 08-30-2011, 06:35 AM

May have to go the eBay route myself. The Canadian Wal-Mart's don't carry DCUC anymore and I am not planning on visiting the States any time soon, so it may be my only chance to snag this set. Even the vendors at Fan Expo 2011 this weekend didn't have the set available.

hrothgars · 08-30-2011, 11:18 AM

The BAF / C&C discussion has inspired me to create a common B/S/T "exchange" thread. Anyone who has DC C&C parts lying around, feel free to post and take a look at what others have available. Be forewarned, it's a brand new post and so far it's just me!
