I love DCUC. This line has replaced Transformers as my primary collection.
But I do have my gripes:
I wish they would stray away from the generic bodies. Being $15 a pop to get a line that is largely the same core figure with a new head and new paint. Though, they are starting to get a little better.
I wish they would work on their scale a little. There are small women, Big Men, Body Builders, and small boys. Wonder Women and Power Girl need to be larger, physically, than Katma Tui and Donna Troy.
And that brings us to the next problem. I really wish they would work on better proportioned women. The haaand. My god, onlyt children have such tiny hands and scrawny short arms.

And the last problem, often the choices they make in their line-ups are "wtf" inducing. WHY in heaven's name did they religate Sinestro Corp Sinestro to being a very low number and rare variant, instead of at least making him in equal numbers? Or at least, why not reissue him? There are *lots* of simular issues throughout. That's just one example.

The biggest problem, distrobution I don't need to comment on. But I don't think as much of the fault lies with Mattel as a lot of people blaim. retailer POS is a bigger problem that actively works against this line.

But, I think the *best* figure of the line is Blue Beetle III. He has the best articulation. I feel it's perfect, without being too much (Like a lot of ML). The scultping is likewise amongst the best of the line. (I only wish Batman Beyond had a brand new sculpt like this, instead of using the inappropriately muscular generic man body).
He's not my favorite charcacter, or my favorite toy, but I think he's the best they've produced.
