People see them with their slightly more limited articulation and features, on the same shelf next to the older DCC Justice League figures, and there's a clear difference in quality. They capture the aesthetic fine but they aren't really worth $20 a pop. But the prototypes for them always look great.
The comic based figures certainley have a more eye-catching look to them, but I personally wouldn't exactly call them superior. That said, I'm more likely to want a complete team of the comic figures. The animated figures, for me, are a more pick-and-choose situation.
Which is part of my dilema when it comes to these figures. There are a lot of DCC figures I would like to have, but I don't quite know where to begin. I also don't want to have just a huge jumble of a collection with no rhyme or reason to it.
Anyways, if I get just one of these Aquaman figures, it'll probably be Black Manta or Mera. Manta's suit kinda reminds me of how he looked in Young Justice, but I also really like how Mera's costume is a bit of a departure for her. Ar least from the comics I've been reading.
