Amazing.JL Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 Awesome! Seems they are still struggling with the pricing, hope they settle it in time for Previews. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donny B Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 Im getting all tingly... that batgirl/bane set looks awesome. I'm really digging this! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deadpool Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 Seems Bane is 2.5... Pity, at least for the "keep em' in scale with Marvel" half of the arguement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fujis Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 Yeah, they look great! Love that Wildcat and the Steel/Cyborg Superman 2-pack is wicked! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBT! Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 These look awesome, Banes face looks funky and Deadmans neck is odd but apart from that I love em T. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drgnrbrn316 Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 Those look great, as we've come to expect (at least from the DC protos). Deadman's collar looks odd though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boyd Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 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.

Xybot Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 Just got inpiration for a con-exclusive 4-pack looking at those wave 4 picks: KINGDOM COME Flash (use the mold for Jay and make him translucent red) Deadman (give him a skull head and "battle damage") Superman (eeeeeeeeasy ... make him old and slight color change) Red Arrow (man ... just color swap and BAM!) ... oh, to dream. Shoot, maybe I should get a job at DCD ... Xy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nestlé Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 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? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBT! Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AdyCarter Posted November 13, 2006 Author Share Posted November 13, 2006 Thanks for the pics, Ady! Where are you finding them? The latest ones posted are from the DC solicits... Yeah the last set were taken from DCD , the first set were acquired, although you should be seen the first ones a few other places now that the DC solicits are starting to filter out.

Fujis Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 Thanks for the pics, Ady! Where are you finding them? The latest ones posted are from the DC solicits... Can someone throw up a link to the original images? I am unfamiliar with the whole 'solicitation' thing and where those would be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nervous Rex Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 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. you can say it T...your Bane is better! love them all... a few thoughts... i agree with boyd about cyborg's face...i wonder if the hair was getting in the way of the eye..has to be fixed the batgirl really shows how good it can look with the face right on the mask itself instead of being cut out. hate that i look at it this way...but tons of custom potential...Steel might become Destro's new face, and his cape(trimmed down) can be a nice Thor cape (and hammer)the way the back shoots up like that.I finally have an official hood for Zartan by way of Spectre, etc...Not to mention the other 3 waves...loads of ideas with them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drgnrbrn316 Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 hate that i look at it this way...but tons of custom potential Glad I wasn't the only one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TM2 Dinobot Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 hate that i look at it this way...but tons of custom potential Glad I wasn't the only one I believe the correct term is... Kitbash Fodder. > Looks like Batgirl has that weird mask/face thing going. I still can't get used to that. Oh, and BOOOOOOOO!!! to the 2.5" continuing!
