The first action figures I ever collected were Kenner's Super Powers collection...and still have very fond memories of this line. While Mattel's Secret Wars line came out about this same time...the figures just weren't as fun for me as a child. The 90's saw Toy Biz take over with their marvel lines. The kenner DC entries around this time just didn't grab me...and I still don't like the animated style figures. Now, I was a big fan of marvel legends when they first came out...but as I think was mentioned above, the ball joints on the hips can range from okay to "Why does this guy have his testicles for hips?" Upon seeing Mattel's DCUC figures...I forgot all about Marvel Legends. They're about as perfect as I can expect an action figure to be. I'll also agree with what's been previously stated, the marvel universe 3 3/4 figures do kick ass when compared to DC's Infinite Heroes...but again in defense of DC...DC Direct's stuff, while not as articulated as they should be by now, makes up for it with scads of variety.

So, I'll side with the dissenters and vote DC.
