We have a nice pictoral update today in the form of DCUC Wave 18 Samuari. While this seems it'll probably be a Love it or Hate it type figure, and wave in general, what with the ridiculous costume and lack of accessories, he has excellent articulation and his paint, although simple, has no slop or mess.

The sculpt is superb and makes Samuari seem like the kind of guy you really wouldn't want to mess with, despite his past as a member of one of the campiest DC cartoons in history.

Articulation is standard with ball jointed neck; swivel hinged shoulders and thighs; bicep and wrist swivel; and single elbow, ab, ankle and knee hinges. Surprisingly, none of the shoulder or ab articulation is hindered by his crazy big shoulder pads on his outfit.

By way of accessories, he comes with a soft, plastic lightening sword, which is great since he used it in the show often enough, but I really have to agree with theFwoosh when they say Samuari could've used some slightly recolored tornado effect to referance his wind power, similar to DCUC Wave 1 Red Tornado. However, regardless of this, Samuari looks great, in my opinion, and is one figure from Wave 18 I am most excited to add to my collection, even though I wasn't the biggest Super Friends fan as a kid, thanks largely in part to the awesome DCAU cartoons of my youth!

In any case, again this figure looks great! Enjoy the attached photos and thanks to theFwoosh for sharing these awesome shots with us!

NOTE: Samuari also comes with the Left Arm for C&C Apache Cheif.
