Mister Miracle arrived today. Nicely done -- tho some serious rearranging of the other figures in my DC collection was needed to make room for that cape!

An annoyance -- too much non-Kirby art in the magazine. Especially when using someone else's art in flashbacks to stuff Jack drew. For shame, Eaglemoss!

I've been astonished at the complete lack of any Golden Age art for characters like Jay Garrick and Alan Scott. I don't think there was a single image from the 40s in either book.

It does seem odd that the art is centered towards the newer art.  Seems that these figurines are geared towards the more traditional comic fan, but maybe I'm mistaken in that impression. 
As for Mister Miracle, he is great.  I'd like to see some more New Gods, a little lax in that area so far. 
I've been opening up all my figurines finally, and let me tell you it losses some of the appeal after opening over 100+ figurines!  Ugh!  They do look cool though.

I've got a whole lotta figurines coming my way.  GA Flash, Black Canary, JS Green Lantern, Lobo, Mr. Miracle, Zatana, Metamorpho & Dr. Fate...and that's just the DC figurines!!!

I may sound like a broken record, but I love that Pile a Loot feature at Big Bad Toy Store!!!

Dr. Fate, John Stewart, Guy Gardner, Martian Manhunter, Deathstroke, and I forget the other one my LCS owner listed are all on his list for next week. As of Wednesday, I'll effectively be doubling my collection!

Mister Miracle is arriving at the end of the month.

That Power Girl is spectacular. I will have to add her to the collection.

The latest DC mega special, Trigon. No interest for me except maybe as a base for customs.
