I didn't see that, must have been pretty cool!

They said that it would be too costly or something to give him a full episode but they've had Grodd on there twice already.

Oh man that cameo was perfect. My mom and gf both screamed when his full body was revealed.

Sheesh...I don't watch the Flash, and I had never even heard of that character (King Shark) until about 5 minutes ago, but after seeing that clip, I freaking want a figure of that dude just cause he's that damn awesome looking. Wowsers...

DC Direct or Mattel. Please make that happen.

Nah man. I want the TV show version. He's way cooler...lol. This is one of those rare occasions where the live action look far exceeds the original comic.

As a matter of fact...after seeing that clip...while I had no real opinion of it before, now I'm super disappointed that Killer Croc is as tiny as he is in Suicide Squad. If the Flash could give us a giant shark man and that show has not even half the budget for a season that I'm sure SS has for just 90 minutes, then there really is no excuse why we couldn't get the monstrosity that Killer Croc was in the Arkham games...

[snake5289]

I prefer the smaller human-sized Croc actually.

And to be fair that clip of him was literally his entire appearance. He shows up, grabs Flash like a boss, threatens him, and gets taken down. Too expensive to do anymore or so they say. I'd love to see him like this in a movie someday though.

That's alright. As I said...I didn't even know the character existed, as I don't read DC nor watch the Flash, so I didn't mind the 2 minutes he was in the whole thing. I just saw a bad ass looking shark dude, had a "Street Sharks" flashback, and was like..."Holy crap...I want one of those in that Arkham Killer Croc size to battle my Pitt figure...lol."

I call it "Darth Maul" syndrome. Dude gets a whole 5 minutes in Episode 1, gets offed rather unceremonious and anti-climatically, and still yet, I remember having to have every single Maul figure I could get my hands on back in the day. He just looked cool... =P

[snake5289]

Eh there's a character like that for all of us.

True but (in my opinion) the Grodd appearances have looked pretty poor by comparison. I was more impressed by the fact they kept the reveal completely under wraps. There were no leaks about it before hand.

I have never been a big Flash fan but I have been digging the show. Picked up season 1 and Arrow season 3 on Blu Ray from Amazon earlier for a whopping 20 bucks each.

FYI the Mattel and DC direct figs are of "Shark." "King Shark" is different character...I only know because the two used to confuse me in a similar fashion. I don't think a fig of "King Shark" has ever been made. Given his recent Flash appearance, maybe now is the time...

...and the "Street Sharks" line was awesome. Underrated, highly stylized sculpts and all around cool figs...especially that hammerhead one...

Correct, there is one king shark figure but in a smaller scale. I just said that because the DC direct one could make a good custom king shark for some of the experts here on that topic.

No worries, my comment wasn't directed at anyone. It was just a declaration that the characters were unique to one another in spite of their very similar names...

What line contained the "King Shark" fig? I'd like to look at pics of it...it'd be nice if Mattel could have made one for Superboy...

He's from a two pack with, as a matter of fact, superboy. It's horrible in my opinion

@Raf

Thanks, man! You saved me an internet trip of disappointment. Yeah, that's pretty God-awful! lol I think a new "King Shark" is definitely in order...

Lol, hope so! Maybe the flash series would help like Trivial said.

Finally got time to upload my recent purchase .Pretty nostalgic for me

My arkham batmen collection finally completed ?


Still trying to figure the place to take pics . Dang IT

[A Friend]

Picked up the Marvel Legends Avengers Disney Store Exclusive 5 pack from my local store this morning. It was down from £99.99 to £59.97 as part of their Black Friday deals. Pretty much just shy of the price of what 3 ML figures would usually cost now here in the UK and considering I was only really interested in the Hulk, Iron Man and Ultron figures, I thought that was pretty nice deal.

Also got the AOU 3.75" Vision figure in the post from Amazon.

Effects budgets are getting cheaper as the years go on, so maybe by season 4 or so, especially if the show keeps growing in audiences, we might start seeing some bigger things.

They have to balance the budget across seasons. So this year having a Grodd episode, the budget may not have been as available as it could have been for a King Shark full episode. With Gorilla City in a future episode (next season maybe) we might be a ways off before they can afford King Shark.

Next year might be effects heavy too. Depends on if they approach Impulse for season 3 like they are Wally for this season later.
I'm really hoping they go for the Iris West Impulse (the niece of Iris Allen) with a slight spin on animated Young Justice's Impulse. Would really be interesting for the Linda and Wally dynamic. "Oh, you two haven't even met yet, but here's your kid from the future."
