I'm thankful for the small amount of decent DC 3.75" figures. Too bad they're ridiculously expensive. Damn you Injustuce Green Arrow!

It might be quiet in here from time to time, but there will always be something to talk about. Old obscure figs, collection pics, customs, those prototypes, odds and sods like the Suicide Squad box exclusives... plus we may get something again someday.

I wanted to get a second box of GA/DS to make Injustice Red Arrow (from GA's ending) and Thomas Grayson Red Hood but then I found out how pricey they were I wanted to throw a bowling ball through my wall in frustration.

100% agreed. I'd love to get the Arrow/Deathstroke set but damn is it pricey.

Same goes for the Superman/Nightwing set but it's not quite as bad. I wanted to get another Superman to maybe make the black suit from Return of Superman or something but I don't see it happening anytime soon.

I would love a Nuclear Man, just because he is a real live action movie villain, regardless of how good or bad the movie was.

CCC.

Definitely. I just meant 200 is the first milestone we're gonna make in a while.

And, I know how you feel about that GA/DS pack. On the bright side, there are a lot of solid 2 packs that go around for $10-$15 like the Guy Gardener/Larfleeze and Flash/Raven 2 packs.

Matell already took a huge risk by making Zod. I don't think anyone in their right minds would mass produce a Nuclear Man figure unless they were trying to make him peg warm.

that would be perfect as a SDCC exclusive

Snowflakian · 07-28-2016, 06:56 AM

I am kinda sad they haven't done a highly articulated and detailed 4'' Wonder Woman movie figure. Hoping that changes for Justice League, but a preview of that for her own movie would rock.

With all the Military figures in the 1:18th scale, a Wonder Woman to interact with them and take on full on scale tanks would be freaking awesome!

I'm still hyped from that trailer. The dio potential is wow.

Zod was mostly doomed by the CR Superman being so rare. You can't have a villain without the hero. The Batman movie figures seemed to understand this.

LordMudd · 07-28-2016, 11:05 AM

I miss the days when you could mail in cereal proof of purchase and get action figures. Nuclear Man would be cool that way too.

I feel you, dude. On the bright side, the Injustice Wonder Woman works fine. The only downside, which is a pretty major one is that it doesn't come with a sword or shield.

Speaking of which, what does everyone use for Wonder Woman's sword ans shield?

Most people that took her out the package had to use a garbage bag for her because for most people she fell apart faster than wet paper in a hurricane.

Sad since she's a pretty fig.

USAgents shield and baron zemos sword are perfect, I'll try and find a pic.

snake5289 · 07-28-2016, 02:45 PM

I gave her MU Taskmaster's sword but I haven't gotten a shield yet. I've been told the one that comes with Death's Head would work really well though. One of these days I'll look into getting one for a cheap price but I'm not too worried about it right now.

On a related note I watched the WW and Blue Beetle reveal trailer and I'm so hoping for Injustice 2 figures. Need a Supergirl to fight side by side with her cousin against Doomsday and the Lex I made. Plus since they've started using better plastic maybe we won't have to worry about broken joints so much this time.

It has arrived...

This and the Collector set were the only two things I really wanted from SDCC. I was never able to snag it online.

It was pretty cheap on the official listings so I hope I won't have to overpay online.

snake5289 · 07-28-2016, 04:19 PM

Here's the (to my knowledge at least) first look at CW's Superman.
First Look: Supergirl's Man of Steel Suits Up | DC
I don't hate it but he looks kind of small there. Hope he'll be on the other shows too. Him and Flash need to have a race.

If his belt was yellow and he had the red undies, I would like that suit a lot more.

snake5289 · 07-28-2016, 04:26 PM

I honestly don't miss the red trunks and I'm fine with either color belt.

I paid 25 bucks shipped. The item was priced @ 15 bucks.

That looks weird. I'd stay positive and see him in action before I judge.

snake5289 · 07-28-2016, 04:33 PM

Agreed. I haven't seen the show yet but they're starting from the beginning on Monday so I'll be checking it out.

I saw some episodes and I liked this SG actress...don't know her name but she's good IMO.

snake5289 · 07-28-2016, 04:42 PM

I've heard she's good but the writing...not so much. I read that Livewire shows up though so that's awesome.
