Oh wow... thanks for this... I thought they were molded on. I was able to boil them and take them off easily!

The cool thing is I just found the Ryu/Widow 2 pack at ROSS for 7 bucks... only saw it at one ROSS though, so looks like they didn't have a lot of them. I passed on this set at discount so many times before, was glad to have another shot at it.

While I'm happy to see anything new 1/18 scale I already have a better version of every figure they announced. I hope the line does well enough that marvel looks at the scale again but not well enough that 5 poa is too attractive.

^^^^Agreed.

On a DC related note on retro, they just successfully collected the retro art of our childhood days from the popular "Who's Who" comics in a huge 1,000+ page Omnibus. Lots of obscure characters yet to see its action figure

https://www.supermanhomepage.com/dc-...-2021-omnibus/

A huge 1,328 page omnibus collecting the fan favorite “Who’s Who” series! The series fans demanded is collected at last! Who’s Who was a series that began in 1985 and ran through the 1990s, cataloguing every character, good or evil, in the DC Universe, from Abel to Zyklon and beyond, with copious detail on powers, origins, and other key facets of each character.

Illustrated by a wide range of top artists from the Golden Age of comics up through the 1980s indie comics scene, Who’s Who was a feast for the eyes as well as being the ultimate guide to the denizens of the DC Universe.

Collects Who’s Who: The Definitive Directory of the DC Universe #1-26 (1985), Who’s Who Update 1987 #1-5 (1987), Who’s Who Update 1988 #1-4 (1988), plus material from Action Comics Annual #2 (1987), Batman Annual #13, Blackhawk Annual #1 (1989), Detective Comics Annual #2 (1988), Dr. Fate Annual #1 (1989), Green Arrow Annual #2, Justice League Annual #3 (1987), Secret Origins Annual #3, Swamp Thing Annual #5, The Flash Annual #3 (1987 series), The New Titans Annual #5 (1995), The Question Annual #2 (1988), and Wonder Woman Annual #2 (1988).

“Who’s Who Omnibus Vol. 1” to be released on April

After too many fruitless trips to Target, I finally managed to find Wonder Woman and Reverse Flash. I never did find Lex Luthor. Hope they find a way to reissue him down the line. Still searching for red Nightwing too. What ever happened to Braniac? Any idea about what will be in future waves?

Autobot_Goldbug · 11-26-2020, 06:07 PM

Aw I had a Red Nightwing for trade but no one seemed interested so I sold it on eBay.
Brainiac is in the next wave. Whenever that hits is anyone's guess.

Kernel · 11-26-2020, 07:31 PM

Happy turkey days fellow 3.75” enthusiasts!

Also saw the spin master bane 12” figure at target. Good sculpt hope we get that in 3.75” form with normal looking legs

Captain Morgan · 11-27-2020, 04:55 PM

I saw a 12 inch Riddler today also. I bet we get Bane and Riddler next year.

I really hope we get a Riddler. It is hard to believe that I have a 4 inch Killer Moth and not the Riddler.

A 3.75" 5PoA Riddler is coming in the Mezco Batman 66 set due in Feb. Pre order is up.

CCC.

I know. I already bought the last 3.75 Batman 66 figures. I believe Funko made them. I really want the Mezco Joker, Penguin, and Riddler, but I cant justify buying another Batman, Robin, Catwoman and yet another Batmobile to get it. I really wish they were selling the figures individually, but alas...

Madame Warlock · 11-29-2020, 07:51 PM

The '66 Batgirl is very nice

slim19722 · 11-30-2020, 10:22 PM

Finally found the 'King Shark' replacement figure.

Il Cattivo · 12-01-2020, 10:39 AM

reminds me of this

Frozenstratos · 12-02-2020, 04:53 PM

Found a new "Bat tech Batman" at target just now.

New bat mobile too

Here's the whole wave. Bunch of redecos and a new Riddler!

Are they still $7.99? They look to have more paint and slightly more detailed.

Same price. They dropped the cards though.

Frozenstratos · 12-02-2020, 08:04 PM

Finally got a chance to open it. Here's the new checklist

Might have a new bat cycle for this wave

Captain Morgan · 12-02-2020, 08:09 PM

That Batarang looks like an improvement.

It looks great! Just wish it was easier to get in hand. It also comes with a grenade launcher and Robin's jetpack recast in clear blue from a wave or so back.

Dragstrip · 12-02-2020, 08:41 PM

So happy to finally see a Riddler in this scale!!!! And bat tech Batman has potential. New batarang is a huge improvement over the very low bar they set before. Very happy to see all this.

snake5289 · 12-02-2020, 08:50 PM

So is that a new sculpt or just the armored Batman repainted again?

Dragstrip · 12-02-2020, 08:54 PM

Is that a new headsculpt on Robin?
