I could do without the can, but I'll be picking that up.

Hopefully with a classic Zoom coming out, they do a Barry Allen version of the Flash to go with him. The "belt" is slightly different than the Wally West version of the costume, so it wouldn't be completely identical. Plus they could better match his scale with the later figures, since they seem to have gotten bigger after the first few.

When you can travel at the speed of light, using a weapon to kill someone is pretty lame. He could spit on them at super-speed and do the same damage.

Its sad that Zoom has a much more dynamic pose than either of the Flashes released.

I think if you pose the Zoom next to Kyle Rayner, it'll look like they're having a dance off. 

Buy an extra Zatanna, detach her top hat, and glue it to Zoom's left hand. Voila! Fred Astaire!

(I'm still getting both of them, just saying)

An itty bitty preview from the figurine forum.  The new Blue Beetle.  Not for me.

Nice Jaime! Could do without the arm cannon, but I really like the overall design of the character and he's a good kid. I'll definitely be getting that!

I love the Jaime Reyes Blue Beetle—loved his series and the backup feature in
Booster Gold. That's a great looking figurine!

Okay, got my Riddler finally at Emerald City Comic Con. Only DC I needed, but didn't have. Wish I'd started the Marvels earlier, still need a few of those. Oh well.

Side note here, Paul Greer and Bill Mimbu were with me and picked up a couple figurines too. Later on that day Paul asked me to hold his John Stewart GL. I promptly dropped it. I felt terrible. Paul said no problem, Krazy Glue. Thanks.

I picked up Steel and Deadman and Black Hand yesterday. Steel and Deadman looked great. Black Hand looks like the Blackest Night one, which I guess I liked better than his old look. It's okay.

He was indeed! I must have picked up at least 10 that day, and about that many today. Landru is a ruthless bastard!

Purchased Hawkgirl and Aquaman today, along with 3 Marvel figurines.  The Aquaman looks as good as I had hoped, and his trident was in perfect condition (not even bent!) which I was worried about.  The Hawkgirl is very nice, although I wish they'd gone with lead wings instead of resin.  I suppose though that might have put too much weight behind the figure and made it unstable. 

A nice touch with Hawkgirl is that her spear is packaged alongside her to keep it from being bent or damaged, and slides nicely through the hole in her grip.  Well thought out on somebody's part.
