Seems Bane is 2.5... Pity, at least for the "keep em' in scale with Marvel" half of the arguement.

These look awesome,
Banes face looks funky and Deadmans neck is odd but apart from that I love em T. -------------------- "Look at you, hacker. A pathetic creature of meat and bone, panting and sweating as you run through my corridors. How can you challenge a perfect, immortal machine?"

Those look great, as we've come to expect (at least from the DC protos). Deadman's collar looks odd though.

Cyborg Supes looks a little off - like the human part of his face is too low. Otherwise, love them all. Wildcat and Batgirl are great, and I wish I had thought about using two different reds on my Deadman Minimate - really makes him pop.

MAN, these are beautiful.
Except Barbara I don't even really like any of these characters... But that really doesn't matter, they look so good! Does anyone know if they'll be hitting Previews this time? |

Ok I"m gonna say it again !
The more I look the more I love them all, esp the impresive lil touches like the top of batgirls boots etc... The one that disapoints me is Bane, the face looks squished and the chest detailing is poor, it looks like a not so great custom. -------------------- "Look at you, hacker.
