DC 3.75/4" Appreciation Thread

Ninjinister · 12-05-2019, 10:21 PM

Still waitin' on Hiya to contact me about something they said they'll contact me about, last week. If you follow their Facebook page, you'll know what I'm referring to. If not.... you'll see when I finally get it.

As far as I know, the lines that make up this scale (circa) are:
Mego
Pocket Super Heroes (original)

Remco
Sgt. Rock (+ "Bad Guys")

Bandai
Teen Titans

Mattel
Infinite Heroes
Justice League Unlimited
Young Justice
Green Lantern (film)
The Dark Knight/Rises/Trilogy
Man of Steel
Multiverse (pre 2016)

Takara
Microman (Superman & Batman lines)

DC Collectables
Green Lantern
Injustice

Funko
ReAction (Flash and Arrow TV series)
Suicide Squad
Batman '66

I'll start off with my purchase from Saturday.

Mezco 5 Points is doing Batman 66. Their line will add Joker and Penguin.

CCC.

Hiya's Injustice 2 figures.

tlasjr · 12-12-2019, 10:33 PM

There was a small line from DC direct for the 2007 Doomsday cartoon. There were only five figures.
And funko had a few items in collector boxes, teen titans and first appearance superman.

tlasjr · 12-12-2019, 10:52 PM

Oh, and the Batman evergreen line from Mattel.

Il Cattivo · 12-12-2019, 11:18 PM

is justice league unlimited really 4"? I always thought they were 5". would love to see some comparison shots. been wanting animated bats and sups.

Captain Morgan · 12-13-2019, 08:53 PM

I need some help with a Aquaman figure. I have the version from the Starro set from 2010 and the problem I have it he has loose hips joints.

Is there any tricks to tighten up his hips?

Il Cattivo · 12-13-2019, 09:45 PM

is that the one with the balljoint hips? if you can pop them off then nail polish works great. I don't think you can on those figures though.

no they are not
they are as tall as the Young Justice cartoon figures
they might work for some larger characters like Clayface or Killer Croc

I think they are just too tall

Il Cattivo · 12-14-2019, 05:53 AM

thanks

damn almost 5 inches. yea too tall.

That's the one. Autobot Goldbug posted a pic in that comparison photo posted above.

I noticed my Aquaman had different hands than yours. I bought this on Ebay did I get scammed?

Foreddyn · 12-14-2019, 10:35 AM

You may have gotten a customized one instead. Most likely so he can hold his trident better I guess

yeah looks like that
depends on what you paid for him then?

I emailed Hiya a few times & even left a message on their Facebook site
nothing
well now GAMESTOP has theirs on sale for $14.99 each
down side is $5 each shipping but it works out OK
unfortunately that means I am going to get Paypal involved to get my money back from Hiya

Mine is still a wee rough but I used a Rise of Cobra Storm Shadow gauntlet from the final duel version and modified it by folding the hand-guard flap and gluing over the hand opening. Smaller blade on bottom is from a GI Joe Dreadnok rifle and I'm honestly not sure what I used for the larger blade. It needs some polishing down and repainting, like I said still rough.

snake5289 · 12-15-2019, 08:37 PM

Not bad. I'll have to look into something similar.

Autobot_Goldbug · 12-16-2019, 10:51 PM

just a small update Hiya refunded me
it's becoming rather difficult to get Hiya figures if you can't get them direct from the source

here are some of drbindy's (of JoeCustoms) customs
