Beautiful stuff but these guys have priced me out a while ago.

Well, I see the hyper-sensitive approval schmo's at Warner got to Huntress... Do not like those spanks, and she's definitely not too comic accurate up top either. I don't see why all these companies have started becoming revisionists here either--what's past is past, no need to change comic art/designs to "modernize" it/them, save that for the "modern" comics.

The Joker and Batman appear to be TNBA styled. Hoping for a TAS Batman in the future, since, in my mind, that one is more iconic

Batman scuba. LOL. It's a high altitude suit from the Hush storyline.

It's accurate to Ed Benes birds of prey art. Hoping it means black Canary is soon

Brand recognition.
If your brands has toys where are your women seem dressed for a particular profession.......and that's what your want to move away from. Women get shorts whenever possible.

Of course that goes into conflict where that is much too late with older fans.

I think the Iron Man and the black suit Spider-Man are definite buys. On the fence about Huntress but would consider for a HUSH ensemble with Harley and Catwoman

Yeah, value wise and sometimes better looking options available especially for the Marvel offerings (Hasbro and Mezco).

Would have been better if they released that. But they probably could get some retool/reuse with Huntress for other characters. Yeah would have liked a skimpier costume for her, think several of her Mattel figures had the shorts or soggy diaper look. I would say if MAFEX made their Psylocke with a similar look as the facesculpt of Huntress I might have been more tempted to get it.

Some of these seem too similar to past released figures which can be good especially if they produce an improved version of the Batman Animated Series Expression Pack Batman.

I think it's actually part of their hush line which is why the shorts are longer. But probably means no Canary for awhile. I don't mind it being similar to older stuff since it's so much better and fits in differently than old Mattel stuff.

I would buy black suit Superman if it would guarantee we get Steel and Superboy eventually.

@ Topic: Solid showing from Medicom, nothing that really blows me away though.

We're getting Cyborg Superman so I’d say chances aren't too bad they're going to complete the "Reign of the Supermen" lineup.

[redfox]

Damn, Mafex has become my official DC line. Wow, Huntress looks phenomenal. never thought we'd see Helena in this line. Now, if we only gotta Poison Ivy......

[ghostbogey]

MAFEX is doing some..
Nice stuff..

The Outstanding "DNR" figs..

Will be looking forward to...
The New MAFEX Line(s)

[dukefett]

Some definite purchases there! Love Mafex.

[BagJo]

I'm just glad they've got a Nightwing on the way.

Looks like a great job of Cyborg Superman. I hope they do a Superman to match. A leather-jacketed sunglasses-wearing Superboy would be nice too.

[Comedian]

[IzzyTipsy]

I was surprised Nightwing, Harley, and Huntress are next.

...we're not gonna get Ivy, are we? Like always, it seems.
