No problem. I should have worded my post a bit more clearly.

Anyways, with any luck there should be at least one new Deathstroke figure coming out next year (Suicide Squad movie).

20 bucks says that he won't have his mask on, and it won't come with an alternate head.

As long as they're able to capture Eastwood's likeness pretty well, I would be fine with that. Would still be more of a Deathstroke than the Arrow 2-pack figure.

I just hope that, with such a large cast for the movie, they don't do multiple figures of the same characters. I really kinda want to see the wave be Deadshot, Harley, Joker, Killer Croc, Katana, and Deathstroke.

Though I still have no idea what the C&C should be. I can't imagine there's any props in the movie they could really do a replica of, and I doubt they would consider throwing in a comic-based figure for that.

He better because then it isn't Deadshot.

So I think I'm going to start purging a bit of my DCU collection.

I have so many figures that just collect dust on my shelf since I only bought them because they were part of the line. I mean, sure, it is cool to have random characters like Shark, Superman Red, Bwana Beast, Dr Impossible, and Brimstone, but I didn't buy them because I had any attachment to them, I bought them because they are from the DC universe.

I'm starting to think that might not have been a great idea. I think I'm going to get rid of the ones I really don't care about character wise. Hell, I don't even know anything about Brimstone other than what the Encyclopedia tells me. He hasn't been in any of the comics I have read, and while he was in one JLU episode and Public Enemies, he didn't actually do anything that makes him a worthy character in my eyes.

Plus, I don't really think I need/want all of the variants like I initially thought.

Because we are stuck in the Silver Age...

micah1199 · 08-05-2015, 01:23 PM

God, I hate those silver age figures. I am a child of the 80's and grew up in the post crisis DCU. Dang, I am trying to collect modern versions of all the DC females and she is a hole in my collection that I cannot fill.

Barefootabe · 08-05-2015, 02:19 PM

i need to get that, also awhile back i got the entire max fleischer superman cartoons on dvd, those ccartoons never get old!

donmeca2020 · 08-05-2015, 03:27 PM

i need to get back on track with my DC figures..... i seem to spend too much time with the marvel guys lol.

donmeca2020 · 08-05-2015, 05:43 PM

What's everyone's thoughts on those Batman 66' Mattel figures? i've been tempted to buy some since i first seen they came out just don't know if they're quality is good....

ToyAddict · 08-05-2015, 05:55 PM

For Lois, I've had to settle for DC Direct's Sophie (from 2-pack with Promethea). I have no idea who they are, so it's okay to me, I don't stare at it and think "that's not Lois, it's Sophie."
