[Poison Shadow]

Okay, I've gotten a lot of new DCC stuff today and I'll be getting even more in the next couple of days as well (pics will be in the haul thread once it all comes in, probably) but I just need to rave about the Red Hood and the Outlaw action figures right now.

Simply put, they're awesome. Hood's glider blades are a little wonky, and I really wish they had included his all-blades in addition to his guns because I really think those swords would look awesome with the gauntlets... but that's a minor nitpick.



Arsenal is the best of the bunch, and I say this because it can hold a legit archer's pose unlike New 52 Green Arrow and every previous DCC/DC Direct archer character. I'm extremely happy about that.




His leg articulation is lacking, but it doesn't matter much to me, and the guy looks like he just finished a raspberry slushy (look at those lips!) but neither of those nitpicks takes away from the fact that he can draw his bow back and hold that pose.

Unfortunately DCC is still making the actual arrows too short. Arsenal's isn't near as bad as New 52 Green Arrow's (which was basically a crossbow bolt) but it is just a hair too short to work. I have the Mattel Young Justice Red Arrow, though, and one of his spare arrows works perfectly as seen above.

I'm seriously considering buying another Arsenal for a Green Arrow custom. There's still hope that DCC will give it another go themselves, though.
