It looked different to me, but that could be my color settings. Anyway, it was a little too cartoony for me so I applied a couple layers of paint and some washes to give the character some more color depth. Shazam got a similar treatment.

lol Hey, you never know, they somehow managed to fulfill my orders for that 2-pack. So you could win in this instance. And you know, as some guy recently said about winning, "We win and we win. We want to win, we always we win. Sometimes we don't want to win, so we just go to a standstill. But that's always, that's not the way this country works."

I have been saying for YEARS that the key to a successful action figure line is figures, vehicles and playsets, but nobody in the industry has ever been intelligent enough to listen to me...at least until now.

That's what makes 3 3/4" figures appealing. Go smaller and figures suffer in detail, accessories, and articulation. Go larger and vehicles and playsets are much more limited. If I wasn't interested in vehicles or playsets, I'd buy a larger scale.

Star Wars guys to school in your front pockets (try that with He Man & Skeletor), and you could definitely take more Joes with you on a family trip. Anything bigger than an original Super Powers guy is just less fun to me. At that point, they stop being action figures & start becoming space-eating dolls or statues. |

I've always thought 3.75-4" were the perfect size for action figures for the reasons you listed, and for the physical space they take up (or don't take up). That scale is easier to display or store. More importantly, from a kid's perspective, that size is much more portable. You could sneak a couple of Joes or

We had to be sneaky, those fascists would confiscate your toys if they saw them. Sorta related, but I recently ran into a guy I went to elementary school with who stole my Knight Rider Matchbox way back then. I was stupid/naive enough to let him "borrow" it, dumber still to even bring it to school in the first place.

The Injustice 2 Green Lantern looks pretty tall, but I compared him to a Sinestro I made out of a Marvel Starfox and he scales well.

Well I got my Injustice 2 Black Canary from Amazon. Unfortunately I have to return it. Her nose tip was flat probably because they sealed her in while the plastic was still warm. Plus one of her wrists is not properly built, the peg is not all the way in. For $20 I shouldn't have to worry about these things.

Yeah, my Canary had a tear on the wrist where the peg comes out. I'd return it, but likely have an issue with another figure. I'll just sculpt over it with some green stuff and paint it.

Also I checked my Target for new Spin Master figures but they had none. Only a bunch of Batmen, 2 Shazams, & 1 black suit Superman. |
