I love Gary's photo.  It looks like all the heroes stopped by ThorBurger to eat.

Gary, are any of those repaints? Specifically, your Captain America looks much brighter and shinier than mine...

Geez. Kitty's really not the cute kid I remember anymore.

Kitty has apparently "grown up" into every Jewish mother's nightmare -- a tramp with straightened hair and a nose job.

What's wrong with Lockheed's wings?  Looks like they've been eaten by moths.

Sad thing is, the inside front cover has this image, which is about perfect (straight hair notwithstanding), and even more accurately represents the sculpt.

Whenever I come to this forum, I try to avoid this thread.  The temptation to start buying these things is so great, but I have limited display space and try to confine my collection to Wonder Woman related items (and even then I'm very picky.)

With the addition of the DC figures, though, it's a done deal.  I'm thinking two shelves for the Justice League and their foes, and the Avengers and their enemies, will be in my near future.

I know how you feel, Thom. I recently got rid of almost all of my Bowen stuff and now these things come along. And now they have the DC licence, too? Oh the temptations!!

Yeah, Gary's Captain America seems brighter than mine too. (with a better paint job no less)



That REALLY is a sad Shadowcat image...

Flavio it really is a slippery slope. My story is much like Ryan's. I'll just get Daredevil. I'll just get everyone associated with Daredevil. OK DD, & everyone anything to do with the FF. OK. OK. Daredevil, FF and the Avengers... (but that's it...)
Maybe we can turn this thread into a support group for addicts?

I just won Thor on eBay and I've pre-ordered two more from Midtown
Comics. Those three will put me at seventeen in about three weeks. Once
the DC figurines are available, I can no longer be responsible for my actions.
