I'm tempted to get Lex, a second Superman, pop their heads off, and make
Joel Kent from GENERATIONS!

Matt Reed:



 QUOTE:
Of the ones you posted, Thomas, the only two I'm not interested in are Robin and Lex Luthor.  Robin because I want the classic character and Lex because I hate that 80s battle suit.  I want
Lex in a suit rubbing his Kryptonite ring!


 


I like this version of Robin, but I would love to have a classic Dick Grayson Robin, too. And Lex in his business suit with the Kryptonite ring seems like a no-brainer.


If Eaglemoss really gets frisky, they can do Golden, Silver, and Bronze Age versions of particular characters.

BTW, Thomas -- looking at the pictures you posted upthread, if you ignore
the imprinted DC bullets (or go for a kind of "Olympic Rings" effect), the
"plinth" will hold more than the "official" number of figures.

Until I have enough of these to justify a proper display case, that's basically
where I'm going with mine.

I'll probably do that. I need to find a better location
for that "plinth."

The next few months will really see how much will power I have, as these suckers start to hit the US.  I have the rooftop Batman, so I probably won't by the standard figure.   I'm not a big fan of the Superman figure, and the complaints I'm reading across the street state he's smaller than some of the newer figures.  I've never been a big fan of DC, but it's tough to not get caught up by the collector mentality.

Definitely yes: Darkseid, Green Lantern, Green Arrow, Two Face, Joker, Riddler, Donna Troy (maybe do a 2nd Aurora custom), Penguin, Captain Cold, Bizarro, Aquaman, Deathstroke. This will probably be very villain-heavy on my shelf.  The rest are maybes at best.

I wanted Starfire until I took a look at a few customs made with her as the base figure. Her boobs look like two basketballs thrown on as an afterthought.
