Loki is one of the premium ones for me, I'm an Avengers geek.  Needs me some Ultron and Loki...

 

edit because I couldn't spell premium the first time.

Just got:

Captain Marvel variant
Hawkeye
The Lizard
Nick Fury

and, my favourite so far, the Black Costume figurine.

Question: If they do DC, do you think they'll do Watchmen?

DC is confirmed, release date has yet to be set by EM.

Images of The Joker and Green Arrow are up on my website :)

heh. The Mr. Fantastic in the pic with Cap and Galactus on Steve's website looks like he's about to do John Cena's "you can't see me" taunt!

If I were to start this DC collection going then my money would be on SUPERMAN to get the ball rolling.  If you were to ask anyone in the street to name a DC Comic character I think his name would crop up more often than the like of Batman etc.

I wish somebody would offer a subscription service
for these things! I'd happily buy the ones I don't want,
just to be sure I get the ones I do!!

They have one for the UK and Ireland.

Edit: They even have gifts like the stand and the folders for the books.

You'd think they'd have for the US as its such a big market.

Thanks for the good news, Steve! Looks like I'm going to need to clear some shelf space...

The best part of this is I no longer feel any compulsion to pick up those increasingly-dreadful Marvel Legends figures.

Just pulled up a currency converter, 12.00 is cheapest I've found in US, and they're about half that in the UK.  But there's good news!  My wife is from Scotland, so I can just have my sister-in-law order them all and ship them to me... mwahahahah They will be mine, oh yes, they WILL be mine.

......................

They are £6.00 in the UK that is around $12.00. Posting a lead figure to the USA might cost a fair bit too.

I collect them on subscription and am for the most part very happy with them. Some of the sizes are a little odd ie venom is tiny and yet Dr Strange is huge but apart from that the quality is pretty high for the money. I suspect I will end up collecting the DC figures to at this rate.

The postage for Juggernaut could bankrupt some
smaller South American countries!
