DC Multiverse - Black Suit Superman and The Flash Animated Series Figures

[QuikMix]

I like both of these--especially considering some of the weirder stuff that they've done recently. This is basically what I expect of a $20 action figure. Nicely done.

They look really good, although I still prefer a black suited Superman to be WITHOUT cape.

Still surprised they aren't touching more Teen Titans. We're LONG overdue for a proper Raven and Starfire.

Why couldn’t they just use that Flash body for Superman? Flash looks much better. That is still one ugly Superman. Jesus. Those twig legs, man.

And Batman, for that matter...

Their animated GL figure disappointed me so much except for the cool constructs. All figures should have elbow joints that at least bend 90 degrees!

[VashTS]

It looks like, at least what little I can see, they did away with those awful ratchets on the elbows of the Animated Series figs or so I hope.

I enjoyed the ANimated series original figures(McFarlane), people bad mouthed them upon release but when I posed them and held them, they felt great and I did not regret anything.

Why can't he get Superman's hair right?

[AceSimulacrum]

Just something's off with their proportions and headsculpts when compared to the DC Direct stuff. These will probably have better quality than the older stuff but we'll see. I'm just a bit disappointed not that big of an improvement for me.

I may have to just buy that Flash so I can customize it into Superman. I don’t think McFarlane will ever make Superman/Batman/Green-Lantern/Martian-Manhunter with the Flash body mold.

Everyone is entitled to their own interpretation, but these figs look like close (enough) approximations to the JLU animated style. The purposely 'blocky' and top-heavy expression of the various toons did offer differences in body proportions that seem to be reflected accurately here. I'm not exactly a fan of McFarlane's Multiverse line as a whole (largely due to the 7" choice) and I definitely prefer the DC Collectables: TAS designs from an aesthetic standpoint (McFarlane seems to edge the line out in articulation and fewer QC complaints), but these seem faithful to their screen counterparts in size/body proportions. Also, that Flash body looks a little wonky even considering the art style. But people like different things for different reasons, so rock on.
