I’ll say it again. I’m real tired of gold label giving the best versions of characters. My Walmart quit gold label and dealers wipe out the other Walmarts and targets. Bbts has been getting these in after a while so that’s my only hope. Otherwise, I’m not really interested in chasing all over for these.

During Flashpoint. Blame Barry Allen. Or Zoom. Or Dr. Manhattan. Cobra Commander prob had something to do with it too.

I hate to knock McFarlane's 3d sculptors becuase most times thier face sculpts are better than 80% of the toy industries. Hasyourdough doesn't even come close to licking McFarlane figure's plastic taints. But this Aquaman face is bad. NECA cult classics series 4 Chucky, bad!

I mean, it gave us Thomas Wayne Batman -how could I not? But I started reading comics just before Crisis on Infinite Earths started. During that Barry Allen was wiped from existence. I took part in a DC Universe rebirth in which there never was a Barry Allen Flash and every character was recreated largely the same way they were before Crisis. So it's kind of hard for me to accept Flashpoint's conceit that if there was no Barry Allen Flash then Aquaman, Wonder Woman and several other heroes would turn into homicidal psychopaths. Quote:

Just log into Hasbropulse.com and look at... I don't know... any 6 inch figure or to a certain extent their 3.75 inch figures. (I hope they don't have The Last Jedi's Poe figure in stock...) EDIT: I think the angry face looks good. If they gave him a neutral expression then he's just Aquaman from Superfriends with this design. (Mostly) I'm sure if that were the case there would be a lot of complaints that this figure doesn't embody the Flashpoint story. Last edited by Smasher; 11-10-2022 at 11:16 AM.. |

It's not that direct, that stuff doesn't happen just because Barry wasn't Flash. It's a hyper-intense version of the butterfly effect, Barry's single change causes "ripples" in the time stream that alter otherwise unconnected events.

Aquaman looks terrible, like a blow-up doll.

I enjoy the Flashpoint storyline.

Hasbro has been at the top of the game in facial likenesses for years now. Just log into Hasbropulse.com and look at...

I know that Wally West and a few others were aware that Barry Allen had previously existed. It was mainly the characters that were even aware there had been a Crisis. But the new DC universe was created without Barry Allen therefore I think "wiped from existence" not only makes sense, it was DC's intent. |

I think that the far right silhouette on Aquaman's box is FP Wonder Woman (awesome!!) and I saw some odd rumors on instagram that maybe we'll get Flashpoint Mera??? That would be SO incredible, but I honestly don't think it will happen as her Flashpoint costume is basically a bikini and 2022 DC probably won't allow it...

No, because that's not what happened. Barry still had always existed and everyone actually remembered him, there having been a Crisis, and how he gave his life to save the universe. Albeit the details behind the Crisis event and what was and wasn't canon for post-Crisis DC always remained unclear to readers trying to keep it all straight. Like how everyone remembered Barry yet no one remembered Supergirl cause reasons.
I don't know how else to say that Barry Allen's sacrifice that resulted in the universe being created without there ever being a Barry Allen meant he was wiped from existence. Last edited by Smasher; 11-13-2022 at 01:37 PM.. |

You just essentially said what I have already said but are positioning the same points as reasons why your argument is correct.
