Neat

Jmacq1 · 12-05-2012, 09:33 AM

I'm sick of this video game well before it's been released.

Seriously, why is this being pushed so hard? Why couldn't they just make some more comic-based 3.75" figures? Mattel undoubtedly has the mass-retail avenue covered.

That being said..Deathstroke looks OK but both figures look weirdly proportioned to me.

Ravenxl7 · 12-05-2012, 09:50 AM

I was initially very excited about this, well, the Green Arrow vs. Deathstroke pack, especially since there's no way to tell if Mattel would ever give us one of them, let alone both...then I read the 3-3/4" bit, not a scale I normally collect, but not a deal breaker...then the price...how are they justifying thirty bucks for these? If they were 6" scaled figures I wouldn't question the price, but...fifteen bucks per/3-3/4" scaled figures? Then whatever shipping will be, as there are no decent comic book stores around here, and the TRU around here isn't all that reliable...

Limited production I would guess.

miketime · 12-05-2012, 10:35 AM

I'm interested to see what the Wonder Woman Solomon Grundy pack is going to look like. It's about time they started making more than just Green Lantern figs. If they can get these into stores I would be all over them.

ultraman zoffy · 12-05-2012, 11:38 AM

$30 for two 3.75" figs?? Uhhh... no.

zim · 12-05-2012, 06:46 PM

Agree with the sentiment that $30 is way too much for 2 3.75" figs. Especially if you have to buy unseen and can't choose.

Crazy Jetty · 12-05-2012, 07:22 PM

Not sure why the price tag is so surprising to anyone. It's DCC, which means these will be either convention exclusives (Like they told us this scale will be exclusively restricted to), or it's sold in specialty shops. Which not only gets charged a higher price, it also means muuuuch smaller production run than Mattel or Hasbro.

On topic... still not a fan of the Injustice designs... but these look a lot better than most of them.
And loving the scale. Wich DCC would invest in it fully.

xhavoc86 · 12-05-2012, 07:23 PM

hopefully they'll start announcing more interesting characters, so far its been pretty generic/predictable

ToyAddict · 12-05-2012, 08:34 PM

Patience, folks, patience. I've read of people complaining that the QC on the Lantern 2packs that have been released was sub-par. Let them take this opportunity to experiment, to learn. . .and let them do it on stuff we don't care about! Then hopefully by the time they get to the good stuff (comic-based figs), they'll have the bugs worked out and will get it right!

But... but... Green Lantern and Green Arrow *ARE* the stuff I care about!

Don't worry CJ -- I'm sure since they've made the head, the bow, etc. they'll make other versions of Green Arrow. At least a modern, comic version -- something like DCUC wave 20, but smaller. Probably a New 52 version too.

And maybe they'll have it right by the time they do more of the Lanterns, like Hal and Guy. So let 'em experiment on Injustice.

(Unless you really had your heart set on Injustice versions of these guys??)

Crazy Jetty · 12-06-2012, 12:23 PM

No, but I would have had my heart set on Kilowog and Kyle. My number one, and number three favorite Lanterns. (With Guy as number two, and Hal dropping well to the bottom after several different aliens, including GL Sinestro)

EDIT: That said, if they wanted to reissue them if they go forward with a retail line, making the green mat instead of metallic, I would be 100% okay with that.

Would also prefer them to be individually packed and released. Some twopacks make a lot of sense (Booster Gold and Blue Beetle, Batman and Robin), Some are puching it but still seem like good combos (GA and Deathstroke), but there's only so many pairs that make sense out there.
Though I guess it doesn't matter much to me. As long as I can get them on BBTS, I'll be a completist.

ToyAddict · 12-07-2012, 04:05 PM

BBTS has a picture up now of Wonder Woman and Grundy. Yuck

Crazy Jetty · 12-07-2012, 04:12 PM

The changes to GA and Deathstroke's costumes make sense. I may not like them, but they're still pretty iconic to their classic looks.

I would never have guessed these two are supossed to be Wonder Woman and Grundy. They don't look even remotely like them.

Seriously... why couldn't Capcom have gotten the DC lisence?

Bubba304 · 12-07-2012, 09:05 PM

as cool as these are and the other 2packs they have released with the GL corps...they are still a pass for me. :/

Autobot_Goldbug · 12-07-2012, 10:12 PM

I would have been interested in a 3.75 inch Arkham City line.
WW looks nothing like WW. On the other hand it makes for a great generic Themyscira Amazon.

tlasjr · 12-08-2012, 11:58 PM

I'm just preordered. I might pick up a second wonder woman if someone wants just solomon grundy ( so i can paint her blue from the crotch down)

DogFashionDisco · 12-09-2012, 12:08 PM

Yeah, I'd probably buy just Solomon Grundy.

redfox · 12-09-2012, 01:01 PM

I think with a little customizing that Wonder Woman could make for a great Lady Sif.

gunzilla · 12-09-2012, 03:16 PM

Not a dc fan but I will get this awesome set. Wonder women will make a great lady sif and Grundy possible tombstone or just keep him Grundy...lol.

redx24 · 12-09-2012, 06:37 PM

love that its G vs E packs so far that way u can fill out both rosters at a time. but Batman needs to be with robin.

Galaxy Ranger · 12-09-2012, 06:46 PM

Getting closer but still not good enough for me to consider this line. Deathstroke is so-so and closer to the New 52 style, but I think Grundy would make a good 52 Frankenstein. GA is terrible.
