To be completely fair that’s around $170 for 5 figures not one or two. That number feels to me like it’s still in the 20% tariff surcharge range. It’s not as grossly out of proportion as your thinking . It was way worse last year when my orders processed for the X-Men AoA Cyclops and Weapon X...

I find it funny that this Wolverine is also listed as 5.9” tall (same height as Legends counterpart) and either that detail is being completely overlooked no one really cares anymore? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’m not too sure about that. I think a formally devout catholic man and religious scholar like Kevin smith who now studies religiosity would have a lot to say about a character like Swamp thing and his effect on the natural world Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Paul Dini hasn’t written for Swamp Thing has he? Either him ir Kevin Smith? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Or Kelley Jones. Same goes for Deadman. I’d love to see a Kelley Jones Batman too but I know he’s more of an acquired taste Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’m in agreement with the part about people never amalgamating their DC figures with their Marvel Legrnds figures. At least that’s not what they want in a literal sense. I feel like it’s more coded language for collectors who want to go back to a bygone era when we were all between the ages of...

I mean that’s true. But Mattel was also responsible for Origins if you want to use the He-Man stuff as per your example. And in that case those were 40 year old figures with maybe 3-4 adjustments in terms of the new articulation to “modernize” the original bodies. But still at first glance those...

Personally I feel like when Mattel first took over the dc line from Hasbro, the results were fantastic and a much needed breath of fresh air. Their problems started as the line continued into DCUC and beyond. If you track the progress of what Mattel’s Batman figures looked like when they first...

It’s one of the very few Mattel Dc figures I still have. I got rid of the majority of my collection when I moved several years back. So it’s the only one I could really grab at a moments notice. The only other figures I have are Nightwing, which I have no clue where that figure wound up, I have...

Just because my curiosity was starting to get the better of me I dug out my DCSH Black and Grey S3 Batman and yiiiiiikes. This figure does not hold up well next to its contemporaries at all. The plastic feels really brittle. Almost like vintage 90’s era action figure quality. And the lack of...

I need to pick your brain when it comes to these selections. Even though you typically love non mainstream characters, does that flow chart ever change when it’s dependent upon the eras you are the most familiar with. Or are those few key players stationary and it’s the outlying characters that...

I personally don’t care if we see Kamandi or pre crisis OMAC ever again. Those were such boring figures the last time Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

lol I just have to share this with the rest of you. I was just on eBay perusing around for Batman figures and I found this hilarious auction. How fucking low on the totem pole does Mattel have to be for a guy to try and con/swindle people into thinking they’re buying a bootleg of a Mafex figure...

I would say of all of these items that need to be shipped, which one is bound to take up the most space in a single box? Prioritize those figs for your POL while the Godzilla can just go out on its own. Besides you’ve been itching for this one for the last 20 months dude just enjoy it now that...

Sometimes when I hear about all of this bureaucracy I just want to throw out the conference tables that all of these big wigs sit around and make them do that water balloon challenge. The all have to stand in a circle and come up with ideas. Whoever says the dumbest thing gets a ballon full of...

I would assume that Bruce and Clark would mostly do their shopping at whatever the equivalent department and clothing stores in Gotham and Metropolis are to places like Bergdorf Goodman and Brooks Brothers Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’m it suggesting that artists and collectors work at the executive level at places like Mattel. I’m saying they should be the ones in charge of designing the products that cater to our ilk. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

lol how do you think Carol pronounces the word Shi’ar?[emoji1787] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

This is why we need collectors and artists in charge at toy companies instead of engineers and kiddults who still like to “play” with their toys. These people have a completely different mindset than most action figure collectors and die hards. Yes engineering is incredibly important but so is...

Dan Mora is definitely the talk of the town for sure an I’m sure most of that comes from the fact that he was an independent author and artist on books like Klaus and what have you. I think he’s been with DC long enough to be more than just your typical flavor of the month artist. In a way his...

I’m worried that by locking these mainline figures into a contemporary design might alienate their audiences. Especially since DC is so whimsical that they’ll change a character’s appearance 5-6 times in the span of a year. They’ve already done that with Batman. In the past six months Batman has...

Hey all. So I’ve been thinking about this all month because this year marks the 20th anniversary of Hasbro’s takeover of the ML license and I have to wonder, what has Hasbro done in these last 20 years that you feel are the most noteworthy accomplishments? What has been the most significant...

I’m going to take a quick stab in the dark and guess his name is Basket-Case? (Double pun not intended) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I just bought a bunch of flash characters this past weekend. Picked up reverse flash, max mercury, Jay Garrick, Dark Flash and Impulse. After receiving the JLA Wally West I just needed more. Btw did Todd ever make Professor Zoom from the Flash TV sreries or Jesse Quick? Sent from my iPhone...
