Are you saying that my Killer Croc is the wrong size?

Tiberius · 03-17-2012, 04:34 PM

I don't think its a variant....I saw a video where that pic was taken from and the jaw actually moves....so....i would assume its the same ...

I usually am too, but with Croc I made an exception.

That would be awesome, I hope the actual figure that hits retail has a moveable jaw.

Look at him! Crock looks like he need to be as big as he is. The Arkham Asylum game had him HUGE in it. S I think he is fine the way he is.o

I am hoping that is the case but why would they have a separate head and torso shown?

Actually, Bane is 8 inches tall, so he'll be 1.5 inches taller than Bane which is perfect.

Yeah and I'm sure I can pose Croc with a slightly crouched pose anyway. I mean if 8" were 6'8", then if you do a bit of math, 7'5" would be 8.9" so he's only slightly too tall. With a half inch crouch, it'd be perfect.

Not trying to nit pik but DCUC figures are 1/12 scale so if he is 6.2 inches tall then he is 6.2 feet tall. 8 inches - 8 Feet. 9.5 inches - 9.5 Feet. and so on.

That is how I see it, and how it should be done.

Only problem with that is it's 12 inches to a foot, not 10 so that scale wouldn't work anyway. Plus all figures are give or take off by a few inches in terms of "real scale" because the majority of them reuse the same bucks and even though one guy might be 2 or 3 inches taller than another guy, they're the same height. It wouldn't be practical to be too concerned with scaled inches with only a few inches difference. I think it's fine the way it is, as I said, I can forgive an inch or two in scale. Heck, DC Direct doesn't do too much reusing of bucks and even their scale is totally messed up.

SilverSurfer · 03-18-2012, 02:34 AM

Hey, guys. I'm new to this DCUC craze and I was hoping some of you guys would be able to help me fill some holes in my collection. Here's a list, any help would be appreciated.
DCUC WV20 Sinestro
DCUC Hal Jordan (Any)
DCUC Deathstroke (Masked)
DCUC Deadshot
DCSH Batwoman (Cassandra Caine)
DCUC/DCSH Blue & Red Superman
DCSH Doomsday
DCSH Darkseid
I'm pretty much after the basics at this point.

thechris · 03-18-2012, 02:36 PM

Is DCSH Darkseid superior to DCUC CnC Darkseid or something?

I didn't think so. I only have the CnC version so I have no idea.

thechris · 03-18-2012, 03:55 PM

Man, I cannot wait for the Club Exclusive Metron in his Mobius Chair. He's going to look great on my New Gods shelf.

kenm2474 · 03-19-2012, 09:42 PM

I received Despero today and another SH Superman. I am starting a Superman Collection with Sups and some of his enemy's that I had in my extras Collection.

quipp209 · 03-19-2012, 11:20 PM

Despero is badass nice addition to your dc figs Bro

DogFashionDisco · 03-22-2012, 09:05 AM

I just want to let you Arkers know that there are some red Azbats floating around eBay for about $18-$20. That's a damn good price, I would've bought one myself but I'm content with my blue version (which ironically cost me about $18).

Thanx DFD. I too am content with my Blue Version. I just received my S.T.R.I.P.E. and Stargirl (Straight Legged Version)today. So Father and Daughter are now together in my JLA Collection. Just waiting for my C&C Darkseid to arrive next week. That will put me at 9 C&C Figures for now. Kalibak is next.

Assuming you are talking about all DC Universe Classics figures -- not DC Direct versions -- that's a steal! DCUC Grundy goes for nearly $120 himself. That lot is worth at least 2x that price.

I'm sure a couple people could point you to a pre-order site for Croc, but I'm personally waiting for it to hit comic shops. Oh, and if you decide to sell that Grundy down the road, I'm your man. Hell, I'd trade some pretty cool shit for that figure.

Tiberius · 03-22-2012, 10:17 PM

Got Hawk and Dove today. Also had an epic dinner. Wasn't that bad of a birthday lol.
