DC 3.75/4" Appreciation Thread

Jeez. The Wonder Twins look like they're about to bath in his blood.

Super Joe · 06-29-2021, 02:47 AM

Agreed. Hopefully the Wonder Twins can see better looking figures in SM toys. Female figure can make great repaints, as she transforms to animal forms (feathers, scales, etc). Zan also has repaint potential in a variety of water forms (water, ice, or both). Either twin can come with a variety of animals. Gleek also can have a variety of funny (repainted) expressions plus a variety of equally funny tails.

Q

What other animals are out there in the cartoons, comics,?

Balloon People from the classic cartoon. SM Toys can use most of its existing Joker suit figure for the Balloon dude figure. Just add that weird blue dog for a DC Pets toyline.

Got my Hiya Toys of the reboot Robocop movie droids. Going to use 1 as a Braniac stand in.

snake5289 · 06-29-2021, 02:50 PM

That's a solid idea. May grab one myself and use it as Metallo.

Could make a good Metallo. With Braniac showing up 'big' some times, I was planning on trying to find a decent 5 or 6 inch figure for him.

Is there a 1/18th Steel figure OOI? Or some superman variant that's close enough and comes with a hammer. I feel like one of the Man of Steel figures with the weird armour could work, jut need to find a hammer.

Kenner's 1996 Superman Man of Steel STEEL or BLAST HAMMER STEEL figures were about 5 inches tall.

Or Mattel's Justice League Unlimited (the animated JLU) STEEL figure was around 4.5 inches tall.

Each of the above came with hammers (Blast Hammer STEEL came with two).

Find a cheap Kenner Super Powers Brainiac and pop off his head, then swap the head on an Age of Ultron movie body.

Madame Warlock · 07-04-2021, 04:23 PM

Didn't know there was a JLU Steel, that'd probably be the most accurate!

Autobot_Goldbug · 07-05-2021, 08:57 PM

I painted Batgirl. I still need to take off her head & get the blue stripes there. Then somehow figure out if I can get it gloss or matte sealed.

Super Joe · 07-06-2021, 12:52 PM

Clearances on toys are going on.
Vehicles for the MOTU origins line can work for Super7 375 as well.
Any other sales at the collectible, toy, clearance area?

Ctonra5669 · 07-08-2021, 11:02 AM

Anyone need a BatGirl or Purple Translucent Joker? Got extras. still need Lex, short hair Aquaman, Gorilla Grodd, and Thomas Wayne Batman, LMK

Super Joe · 07-08-2021, 01:16 PM

^ I got the chase variant glow in the dark Thomas Wayne. Anyone else interested just PM your BST.

What does it look like? Do you have a picture? I didn't know there was a glow in the dark Thomas Wayne

See the "Rare" version in the fold out list of figures in his wave, that comes with every carded figure.

Here's the "Rare" version with glow in the dark Batarang.
The youTube reviewer thinks it's an error. Yet he actually has the rare version...

For some reason I thought he had a sculpted hip holster... I can pass since they just painted it on and didn’t paint a sun behind the bat on his chest

The regular release does have it painted (yet not the rare variant). I have both the rare or the regular release for trade..

I thought it did, looks way better.

Also picked up Batgirl at target finally, and she was on clearance to boot

Il Cattivo · 07-21-2021, 04:28 PM

The multiple Batmen & Supermen are starting to hurt them in the pocket books!

Artic 66 · 07-23-2021, 08:32 AM

Does anyone know what is going on with the Heroes Unite line? Seems like we haven’t gotten anything new all year!
