 |    Well, the white Phoenix would have cranked up the sexual content for sure, considering the character would have seemed "naked" except for gloves, boots and sash.  |

 |  HEY BYRNE!
 DOOD!
 You've been holding out on us,man.
 I had no idea that you collected those Justice League animated figures.
 I spy the Subway JL toys there too!
 
 Somehow I had the impression that you were indifferent
 to them.(I recall a post of yours saying they were TOO cartoony or sumsuch)You ARE one of US!
 Great Pic.Thanks for sharin'.
 
 Love the new Phoenix statue. I don't recall that one appearing in
 the Previews Diamond catalogue though.
 Surely that's not a Bowen is it?

 There's more than one line of the JLA figures.  These are larger and, yes, not
 quite as cartoony as the smaller figures.
 
 And, no, the Phoenix is not a Bowen.  Don't tell Randy I have been unfaithful!

          Matthew, those figures you posted upthread are Metal-Men. In addition to the robots you have, there waa a cop, a soldier and an astronaut.

 It's always good to see villains who are happy in their work!

          Those look very Hembeck to me, which of course is a good thing

          Hard not to like the bad guys with those huge smiles! It's funny to see the kinder, gentler, Galactus.

          Galactyke looks like there should be an oreo cookie wedged into his open hand.

          Question for all the Star Trek toy collectors out there. Are the current batch of Art Asylum ships better than the old Playmates toys from the 90's as far as sculpting, details, etc.?
