Swiffers are fabulous for actionfigure displays. Especially clunky things like transformers.

Not that I'm that great at cleaning....

On topic... my displays... too numberous to list. And I have no idea how I aquired them all, given how hard half this line was to find! (I also have no idea who some of them are, and only aquired them to complete a BaF I wanted)

My Green Lantern collection alone tops a lot of normal collections. My GL collection includes everyone Mattel has released, EXCEPT Sinestro Corps Sinestro. Since I NEVER SAW HIM EVER. (Yay wave 20!)

Not like it realllllllly mattered. Body was way to small and it looked funny. Cannot wait for wave 20, however I will probably have to order it on BBTS

Sometimes what the toy is actually like stops being the point of what it's all about. >_<
My ire is more towards Mattel's syupidity with Sinestro (And I guess you can chalk the body chosen for him onto the fire as well).
The SC uniform is the one everyone knows him for now. It's the one everyone wants. It's his iconic appearance. So naturally that make it the ultra rare chase.
Then they have the perfect opportunity for a reissue with the "Height correction" with that Hal Jordan twopack. Heck, I even asked them about this in one of the Q&As, and they said his classic look is what people want, and the SC Uniform wouldn't fit the "theme" of the set.

But then... what else should we expect from the company that apparently thinks no one likes Wally West?

Oh well... at least they're fixing this before the line dies. (Sinestro, I mean)

I preordered the entire wave as soon as BBTS allowed it. ^_^

!@#$. Cleaning now!!

darksied,armored luthor and robotic brainiac.

thechris · 08-31-2011, 07:28 PM

I take a compressor with an air hose and spray the shelf base. It seems to do the trick and the agitation prevents the dust from settling.

iLegends73 · 09-01-2011, 02:16 AM

dust is a problem "HULK HATE DUST!!" i got a small walk in closet to put my stuff in. and when something in there happens to get dusty then someone gets hurt...KKKAAAHHNN!!!

but.....if u check out itsalltrue.net then they have a pretty gud break dwn of how the case assortments should be for wave 20. which to me means the short packed ultra rare slap a nun to get one sinestro shouldn't be a problem this time around

At the time, I had not been reading comics or into the whole superhero thing for about 20 years. But when DCSH and then DCUC came out it started reeling me back in. . .

So I didn't know anything about the other Corps (didn't even really understand how Guy Gardner could also be Green Lantern and hadn't heard of John Stewart -- as far as I knew Hal Jordan was THE Green Lantern), Blackest Night, Brightest Day. I just remember seeing Sinestro -- who I remember from Super Friends in his blue suit -- on the pegs at Target and thinking "what is that? why would anyone want that?" and passing on him. TWICE.

Same with the Red Robin from that wave.

Sometimes I do stupid things.

So wave 20's is definitely the height-corrected version?

Haha, I've done that a few times, buddy. I got into DCUC late and have paid for it dearly. It's worse when you want him later, not so bad if you still don't care about him. I've decided that with DCUC, unlike Marvel Universe, I won't be collecting everything. I'm only getting the figures I absolutely like and either ignoring the rest or selling/trading the ones I don't care about that I get in a wave lot.

Yes. Though pictures haven't been released yet, that's what they're saying.

Is there any word on how much more non-subscribers will have to pay for a figure? I just want 2 out of those 5 =3.

While official numbers haven't been released yet, they did hint at a price hike of like $1 or $2 more for non-subscribers to get the figures they want from the MattyCollector site.

HELL YEA! Ok I am more than excited now. I am glad Rocket Red didn't get the win just because I would regret not getting him. Will the larger size figures be available too? Again though, congrats on the DCUC fans for getting your sub!
