The DC direct thread

[Roughneck]

The loose fig value dropped a bit But MOC ones stayed about the same cause of the distinctive packaging.

BTW Has anyone seen the ML priceguide from Today? All green. MLs are heading up cause of the Hasbro thing.

I'm just glad to know whats coming. The pics are a nice bonus. I can't wait to see how the Ross Justice Martian Manhunter and Luthor turn out. I wish that Brainiac would come with a surgical table.

 

[Roughneck]

Nope Instead we get a Monkey.

I woder how many waves they are gonna go with this. By the time Wave 5 hits we may only be at issue 7 or 8.

But who is left for the other waves.....Thy pretty much got the Core JLAsers

I'm glad we're getting the monkey, but a surgery table would be cool as well. I guess DC Direct wouldn't be willing to include it because it would have to be so large to accomodate a 7" figure? They usually seem to be pretty skimpy on the accessories side.

Anyways, since we're going to be getting a McGuinness style Nightwing and President Luthor, here's a couple of pictures of what they'll likely look like.

President Luthor

Since we're already getting a Luthor in Justice wave 5, I would have preferred to be getting a McGuinness style Armored Luthor, but I suppose they figure we'll already be getting a COIE armor Luthor and a Mattel version as well. Here's what we couldv'e had though (I personally prefer this one over both of the versions we'll be getting this year).

What is that Super Luthor Model for? An Unused version? Or the Mail Away Exlusive? *He Hopes*

 

[vog]

An unused version I guess. If it were a mail-away exclusive, I'd bet it would skyrocket in price. Can you imagine a headsculpt of Luthor looking that crazy? It'd be so awesome.

Here's the link where you can check out the others they're evidently not using:

I do think that they mislabeled the Batgirl and Sugergirl ones though. They look exactly like the Superwoman and Batwoman characters from the "With a Vengance" storyarc currently going on in Superman/Batman (which McGuinness is also drawing). Maybe they're planning on doing a set of figures from that storyarc somewhere down the road? I guess it depends on how well wave 2 of Public Enemies sells. I'm all for more McGuinness figs.

 

[FEAR THE BAT]

I am definitely gettin that Nightwing. He is bad ass

 

[Roughneck]

Woah.....Joker.

 

[Roughneck]

Say....Speaking of DCD...Anyone pick up any Loony Toons figs the other day?


I may go buy the Sylvester and Daffy ones tomorrow.

 

[Roughneck]

.......I wish his hair was different. And DCD website doesn't have a picture of the reActivated Joker. That's the one I'm waiting on.

 

[FEAR THE BAT]

That rasta Lobo rules!!

I can't wait to re-enact that part in Predator 2 where he kills all those Jamaicans by using a group of 5 ReActivated Lobos.

 

[Roughneck]

Unlike you precious Batman.....Lobo Would have no problems kicking Predators ass.

 

[Roughneck]

Tell you what FTB. Send me your cool haired Lobo. Then you can get a Rastabo when he comes out.

 

[FEAR THE BAT]

Don't make me laugh.

 

[FEAR THE BAT]

Tell you what FTB. Send me your cool haired Lobo. Then you can get a Rastabo when he comes out.

He's gone, along with his bike.

Traded him and 3 other figs i didn't want anymore for a Sentinel

 

[Roughneck]

.....Never mind. I like the new one better. I think I'm still gonna do the SF Birdie/Blanka Head Lobo Custom.

 

[Roughneck]

Has Batman ever fought Lobo?


I hate to be rude but man....Lobo would own. And Lobs could really kill the hell out of Predetor.

 

[FEAR THE BAT]

The new one looks cooler to me

 

[FEAR THE BAT]

Has Batman ever fought Lobo?


I hate to be rude but man....Lobo would own. And Lobs could really kill the hell out of Predetor.

Blah blah.

I've heard the "Batman can't beat so-and-so" countless times. I'm tired

 

[Roughneck]

Dude.....he's only human. And there aint no Kryptonite for Lobo.

 

[FEAR THE BAT]

Not that you know of.
