Okay, so I just picked this guy up a couple days ago, and I just HAVE to give you guys my opinion of this figure. Oh...and its mostly negatives...
First of all, Im not a normal DCUC collector, and I dont really have too many of these figures, so Im speaking totally as an unbiased toy-reveiwer here. Lets start out with the price...

- $15 for a fairly basic action figure with no really cool bonus accessories (Yes I realize many will disagree with me here , but I dont consider a giant indians leg and a bunch of generic , re-used weapons that dont even fit in his hands "really cool"...or even kinda cool) is simply not a even trade in my opinion. Which brings me to my next point...

- I dont know if this is just with my figure but NONE of this cats weapons fit in his hands. What the CRAP? That sucks donkey scrotum.

- Mattel could have easily created an actual tiger mask to go over this guys head. So why didnt they? I try to save all of my "head-popping" for only one line (MOTU Classics), as it gets old pretty quick, and at least with that line it makes more sense.

- QUALITY CONTROL: I know Mattel usually has decent standards when it comes to this, and I know that most of you guys didnt have this problem , but right out of the package my figures right arm FELL OFF completely. That sucks guys. It seems to have occured because of the way the actual arm is positioned inside the package itself. I mean ...I work hard for my money. To see it wasted chaps my hairy ass pretty good.

In summary there are only two positive things I can say about this figure: 1.) The sculpt of the tiger mask/head is phenominal, and is the real reason I purchased this. 2.) The DCUC articulation is excellent, and usually they are solid figures.

Overall my taste for Tony the Tiger here has run dry. But whats yalls opinions of this toy? Disagree with me?

Completely agree about the weapons. And the tiger mask head is really well sculpted. I actually like this figure quite a lot. He and Toyman are my favorites, and the only two I bought, from this wave.

I bought the whole wave.

Bronze Tiger was one of my favorites.

They should have done a Silver Agre Capt. Boomerang varriant.

Probably issue with that is body type. They seem to skip over anyone with a body type that didn't already exist and they didn't have any short pudgy guys. Even the older appearances of Captain Boomerang would've required some new retooling.

I've seen buff versions of Capt. Boomerang, but don't think they have a blouse buck to the best of my recollection.

Yeah I so hear you on the right arm ( actual arm is positioned inside the package itself. ) it did not fall off just yet but I need to put it under warm water and hope I can fix . It would be nice if this wave would of have more of the Rogue Character in it and done with out the Superfirends add on lol . member like Mirror Master , The Trickster , Heat Wave , Abra Kadabra and ect...

This goes for Bronze Tiger, Hawkman, Medaphil/Naut Kei-Loi, Low/Maash, and Skullok/Nite-Lik... Be careful when switching heads I had the Head ball and shaft break in Skulloks head and a substancial amount of Hot glue fixed it but the head doesn't move
