I really don't like the new line of DC statues like the Superman with a smoke streak or the Aquaman as posted above with the water trail. 

It doesn't look like a statue to me - it looks like a bust with a really tall base. And yet, it costs as much as a statue would of that same size. 

I guess I just don't see the value in that. 

The Aquaman further above, yellow gloves and all, looks pretty nifty though.

I actually like both Aquamans.  Very nice.  The first Aquaman is the coolest.  That's the kind of fun I like!

Love that retro Golden Age Aquaman! That's a gnarly statue I'd own in a second!

If someone did a full-body Jack Kirby Hulk, I'd d-d-d-die from happiness.

Wow! I'm usually disappointed with fire or water effects used on statues, but I really like the water on Aquaman!

What an idiotic base on that Captain Marvel bust!! Shouldn't the figures be
the gods and others whose initials add up to SHAZAM??

(And these guys need to go look up the Seven Deadly Sins!!!)

That Aquaman is pretty sweet! I will keep an eye out for it!

The yellow-gloved statue unfortunately doesn't come out until summer of 2010.
