DC 3.75/4" Appreciation Thread

Ordered the Hal/Saint Walker two-pack off of Amazon this morning. Since I reworked Sinestro into Hal I'm planning on reworking Hal into maybe Tomar-Re or Abin Sur.

I modified a Multiverse Joker with the Injustice Joker head and painted his shirt orange. I also replaced his left hand with one that can grip. I'm pleased with the improvement! (pics taken for a contest on Facebook.)

Argggh! Super Mega Special Buyer's remorse! I think I will stick with my custom version if that is the case, and relist the one I just bought. I will know next week when it arrives.

Where is it coming from?
Still nothing new at my Walgreens.

Freckin' awesome, Pyscho Pirate! I hope you win the contest; that Joker head is a major improvement. Cool wall and props too!

Damn don't know why it never occured to me to paint his shirt orange. I went with a different shade of purple. Very nice work sir.

the DC Infinite Heroes seem to be increasing in price on ebay

sephiroth61787 · 10-31-2015, 04:06 PM

Looked at the Catwoman Multiverse on eBay, doesn't look like she comes with a head that has the goggles on her forehead instead of over her eyes. Wasn't there a version with the goggles on her forehead? I'm disappointed that they didn't put that version out, but I will still pick up the figure.

Nope there was never one like that. Unless you mean the Microman version.
If the line would have continued maybe they might have made a variant.

I wonder how this ebay guy got those.

At the very worst they were still excellent for parts.

Think I have bought 6 or 7 Wonder Girls alone just because the headsculpt is so good. with the right color hair it even works as a great young Asian female head.
Slapped the V2 Flash head on a Reed Richards MU and fit perfectly.
Also IH Batman's belt, IH cape and the TDKR"Beyond" head Slapped on a female MU body makes a perfect Cass Batgirl. Wonder Girl's head with black hair for Cass unmasked.

Really wish someone lucky enough to get the prototypes(Cass Batgirl, Hawkgirl, Harley, Ivy) would volunteer then for casting.
Heck i'd buy them and donate them to one of the casting guys around here if they were available. or even just pay the owner to loan it to a caster for a short time.

The only one I have found was the gashapon Catwoman. If you are willing to cut and drill, it is an excellent head!

You will have to let us know how well it fits then.

Judging by this it looks great.

My brother gave me a bat signal flashlight as an early birthday present, so it would've been a crime for me not to do this.

Perfect! Love that shot, MUfan.

Those look like Twilight Hyenas!

I only have one deathstroke that I found @ TRU Express. If you dont have one you might want to try eBay or Amazon before the prices hike.

BBTS E-mail...

Hello,

After many requests for updates and lack of response from Mattel, we have finally been informed by Mattel that the MAT15849 DC Comics Multiversse 4" Figure - Deathstroke (Arkham Origins) has been discontinued prior to fulfilling the remainder of our order. Unfortunately this means we must cancel all remaining preorders for this item because we are unable to secure stock from alternate sources. We apologize for the inconvenience and greatly appreciate your understanding.

We are disappointed Mattel is unable to fulfill this item and apologize again for the inconvenience. Thank you for your continued business.

Sincerely,

Deathstroke is currently on Wal-Mart.com. I have found him at Wal-Mart and Target.

snake5289 · 11-03-2015, 05:55 PM

I saw him on Amazon for 11.99 a few days ago but when I went back it was back to ludicrous prices.

In other news Hal and Saint Walker came in this morning. SW is awesome but some of the shiny blue is kind of faded looking. I also got vol.1 of the New 52 GL and after reading it I'm reworking Hal into Sinestro. It's only fair I suppose since I redid Sinestro into First Flight Hal. Painting the green bits now.

Madame Warlock · 11-04-2015, 08:50 PM

Is there any sort of Huntress that's in scale?

I found some old Subway happy toy type figures that included a Hawkgirl that's around the right height... going to pick one off eBay at some point soon.

Psycho Pirate · 11-04-2015, 10:10 PM

There is a Justice League Unlimited animated Huntress, but she is a little large for this scale.
