Twisted Two-Face Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 So apparently, along with the Black Lantern and old GL rings given out at SDCC, Geoff Johns was ALSO promoting Flash: Rebirth with a bunch of promotional Barry Allen Flash rings. Well, Barry is most definitely MY Flash and i'd love to put his ring next to my "Hal" ring, where it so rightfully belongs. Well, there are a few on eBay, but i can't find a "review" for the life of me. Basically, does anybody have one?? I'd love to hear what you think of it, because i'm thinking about getting an eBay account just for this. Like to know if i actually SHOULD, though; while i WANT the Barry ring, i'd like to know if i NEED it. Get what i mean?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SErge Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 (edited) i heard the quality aint as good as the bn promo rings, I wanted one too, since Barry's the man, but I'll have to pass on it, I for one think it aint worth it, if the quality isnt good.

minijeff Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 I have one and I love it! and I thin it is better then the BN rings...not as thick but also it fits better on my hand anyways....I wear it frequently to proudly display my geekness even if it is a big yellow, dentist ring as my wife says lol on a related note my set of BN rings came today and man do I love having them all! they look great all displayed together Jeff of the Miniacs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mirymate Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 Still have my plastic, flip-top Flash ring that came with the first DCD Flash/Kid Flash set. I need no other. Or rather I didn't used to... let my son play with it this summer and havn't seen it since. It's in the house... somewhere... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nestlé Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 Here is a cheap auction I found once I read this. http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewIt...em=160378095483 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twisted Two-Face Posted November 19, 2009 Author Share Posted November 19, 2009 (edited) Here is a cheap auction I found once I read this. http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewIt...em=160378095483 Yea, i had seen an even cheaper one without the Green Ring, but i don't have the old "Recharge" ring either, so i may shoot for that one. Or both. Thanks for the great words guys. Really helping my decision. DCD made one?? Huh...besides the promo i thought the only one was the "not meant to be worn" "Statue" version. Might have to take a look at that one. And it definitely looks "better" than the Blackest Right rings, with this one being a 100% sculpted ring and the Lantern Rings being a ring-shape with different "tops" clued on. Want it either way though. Oh, and i only need one more Ring after finding a SDCC Green Hal (who looks great next to the Blackest Night figures, btw); RED!!!

Jeff of the Miniacs Not to derail my own thread, but s it plastic or painted?? I know the green SDCC one was painted gren, and that thing is chipping like Hell. Actually, i won't derail. Is the Flash Ring molded yellow?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minijeff Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 Next weeks green and red rings seem to be just like the rest of the BN rings and molded plastic....I have knocked them around quite a bit and there is not a mark or chip on them as for the flash ring it is molded yellow plastic Jeff of the Miniacs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TM2 Dinobot Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 Okay, I was at my LCS and got a few Blackest Night rings for people, and a spare GL ring. I just need Purple and Orange, if anyone wants to trade or just hook me up. Also, they had a metric ton of Black rings left, so if anyone needs one, please don't hesitate to ask.

SErge Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 well, I guess now everyone can have a flash ring, their at it again! http://robot6.comicbookresources.com/2010/...motional-rings/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcastick Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 Hey TM2 Dinobot, if you can snag a Black Lantern Ring for me, let me know....... we can work something out. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TM2 Dinobot Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 It will probably be next week before I can get to the store (I wanted comics this week. ) but I'm sure they will have some left. That had literally several thousand last time I was in there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twisted Two-Face Posted January 27, 2010 Author Share Posted January 27, 2010 Well, that saves me making an eBay account and hunting a few down. Now i'll be able to have packaged and wearable, since i plannedo n picking up the title anyway. Do i really need more Hal Rings though?? Yes. I just wish they'd change the design. So, this poses the question: When The Legion gets there own title soon, DO WE GET LEGIONNAIRE RINGS TOO?!?!?!?!?! I want a COMPLETE Ring collection after all.

NorthRaider Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 I've been checking out some of the Blackest Night promo rings at out LCS... do they come in smaller sizes for girls? Tangentially related: what do you guys think of this? (Even crazier: this ethical land mine has a part 2.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TM2 Dinobot Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 NR, if you heat it up (even breathing on it works) and push the 2 sides together so they over lap, you should get a smaller size and it should work. They're not a "ring" ring, they've got a cut in them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
God Magnus Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 So, this poses the question: When The Legion gets there own title soon, DO WE GET LEGIONNAIRE RINGS TOO?!?!?!?!?! I want a COMPLETE Ring collection after all. Well, there is some kind of new Legion book coming out sometime this summer, I think. Could be a good opportunity for DC to put one out there.

dj87 Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 that new flash ring looks incredible, i had v.much been planning on getting my hands on the new series, so that a huge added bonus. is that GL ring exactly the same though? oh, and i've got my beautiful set of BN rings in front of my now. I used a little silver paint to bring out the symbols on them... they're so pretty! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
