"Oddness!! Years ago, I bought two tiny PVC Pinky and the Brain figures.
Pinky has been "missing" since I moved three years ago. Loading the
picture above, I just found him! "

That is awesome!!!

Hilarious.

I always figured Sasquatch to have "human" eyes - white with pupils, etc, the same color as Langkowskis.  I guess I always looked at Sasquatch like a big ape -- and apes have human-type eyes - often with more emotion in them than human eyes.

Steven, I figure Sasquatch's eyes are black with red highlights.

Narf! Out of all the stuff I see in this thread, no matter the price, no matter the rarity, no matter the coolness...

I am most jealous of all that I do not own those Pinky and the Brain figures.

Found this on a Japanese toy review blog. Coincidence, or were they thinking of the WQ? ( I don't read Japanese.)

Lars,

I always thought Sasquatch's eyes were red with black highlights.  But, then I also think the original Batwoman's costume is yellow with black highlights.  For some reason I just can't get my head around the concept of something being black with yellow, or red, or other colors that don't cast highlights.

That's a gallery of custom dolls, so I'm pretty sure the "aka WQ" is meant to indicate that she's a custom White Queen doll. My Japanese is rusty, but I think the text is describing who made what pieces for the custom.

I could NOT leave the comic shop without the new Showcase Presents: Superman figure!



I was (barely) able to resist the Hawkman included in this first wave.  He comes with the wingless version of the helmet...I thought JB would like that one!

I expect a Flash, Batman and Green Lantern in later waves would successfully separate me from my money as well!

I really like the Showcase Batgirl. Stopped myself from getting it, though. If I got one I'd end up getting the rest in the line.
