As for Arrow, this season has been a mixed bag. It started out really good and now it seems like every other week is a bad episode. I just feel like the writers wrote themselves into a corner and are just making it up as they go along. I'm ready for this season to be over with. Hopefully they will be back on their A game next season.

Hell, I wouldn't mind if Flash were to alter history, wiping this season of Arrow out of continuity.

I'm with you on this. I was also very displeased with how they handled Slade this season as well. They should have went in another direction with him.

I am looking forward to the new Scarecrow, Harley, and the Arkham Knight figures, but I am REALLY looking forward to the new Origins 3 pack with Lady Shiva, Electrocutioner, and Harleen Quinzel. 3 brand new figures that have never had figures before. SO HAPPY!!

the Red hood gamestop exclusive is definitely on my list, and i would like to jump on a arkham knight as well. while they have more of a video game look rather then the comics look i honestly don't mind them.

as for the scarecrow, i thought En Sabah already got one, and showed it off a few pages back..

So, En Sabah asked for a pic of Red Hood's head sculpt since I compared it to Arkham Knight. Rather than post it in the "Look what I just got" thread, I figured it should be shown here.

Mine is staying in the package for now, so the pic on the left was found elsewhere on the internet. I couldn't find a decent photo of the Arkham Knight action figure, which would make for a better comparison, so I had to go with the promo art version.

I just thought it'd be interesting to see the two side-by-side.

They aren't as similar as I initially thought, and any influences could certainly be explained by a shared character designer. Still, I figure there's a reason they kept blocking out Red Hood's helmet in images. I'm looking forward to seeing if they are the same character.

It's interesting to note that AK's bat ears are bolted onto the helmet, rather than it all being one piece. It would also explain AK's red camouflage patterns, although I think his army wears red too.

Ha, yeah it's just something fun to ponder before the game comes out. It's been a long wait.

Thank you very much! You're righ about the wonder twins, it's not until my son saw the box and wanted to open it that I remembered about it. They're so cool...and Gleek is somewhere in a box here, I hope I find him too.

305Batman · 04-30-2015, 05:55 AM

Oh DCUC,I remember you fondly,had everything up until the big purge!

305Batman · 05-03-2015, 06:18 PM

There's an interview somewhere with the 4H where they say they worked with Mattel on BvS stuff,it has to be 6 inch figs.

I hope that news is true. If so, I'm excited to know that the door is still open between 4H and Mattel...and I'll check their BvS wares.

I think it may have been a post on AFI,not really sure.

All I can find there is a forum post of someone claiming to have found an "interview", and without linking to said interview, or saying where it was from, included two super generic sounding quotes. One of the quotes even mentioned a DC line currently on-shelves that the 4H were working on with Mattel. Ummm... did they do anything for Multiverse?

In summary, it sounds super shady, and I wouldn't believe a word of it.

3233rafael · 05-04-2015, 01:36 PM

Whoohooo! Long overdue purchase for me...just arrived. This was an eBay auction for the Salvation Army so the monies were for a good cause.

...In brightest day, in blackest night,
No evil shall escape my sight.
Let those who worship evil's might,
Beware my power, Green Lantern's light!...

DAMN! The usual price tag on those guys is insane. Awesome to hear it was for a great cause! Once again I am very jealous LOL.

Thank you. Yes, I was watching two auctions and they were both in the $900 price range. Then, the Salvation Army puts up this auction for charity and it goes for almost half the price of the other two listings.

Very cool. I just cannot bring myself to spend what people want for those guys. I almost dropped $300 on a loose set of them at one point but I just could not justify it. If it had been for charity like yours though I would have been fine with it.

3233rafael · 05-05-2015, 10:35 AM

That's how it starts. The fever, the rage…

All I'm saying is don't believe everything you read on the internet.

DC team appreciation...

^ That's just beautiful TBM!
