Man, I went looking for them, and all I found were empty pegs with the Target reorder grey sticker.

But I did find the new Joe DVD packs, which I wasn't looking for. It always work that way I guess.

They don't have hip or wrist articulation, and Capt. Marvel's hands dwarf his head.

Here is a list of what figures were on the back

Guy Gardner
Capt. Marvel
Atom (Non Ray Palmer)
Adam Strange
Black Hand
Reverse Flash

Kind of a strange selection of B and C list characters.


I got some today too. They only had Guy, Marvel, Strange, & Zoom. I think those 4 are in the case. Unless the others are short packed. However they had at least 4 of each of the above characters. I got Zoom & Marvel. IMO Zoom is pretty good.
The females won't have chest or hip articulation either.
Now I'm wondering how I can improve on Capt. Marvel. :-/

In the pictures I posted earlier in this thread it really looks like Black Canary and Bat Woman have that 25th chest articulation. Are you positive that they wont have it?

Considering what Mattel's done for the 18th TDK figs, I wouldn't get my hope up about it, TC. With Mattel, it's pretty much always best to be pessimistic and be pleaseantly surprised when something's actually good, than to have high hopes and be near-continuously disapppointed.

I picked up Zoom and Shazam yesterday....

Yeah.. I can see why people might hate these.... Zoom is pretty good he just desperately needs extra leg articulation.

Shazam is just a mess except for the head sculpt.

Yeah, I've seen them a few places now, and while I dig the heads there are simply too many flaws with the bodies for me to pull the trigger on a purchase. The lack of accessories is pretty lame too (I have the same problem with the Movie Masters 6in stuff, but at least those look good). If a head really strikes me as perfect for a custom I might grab one here or there, but with so much coming out these days the line gets a big pass.

I read that the 3-packs are out also. I would love to get that Gordon GCPD set.

No signs of these figures in Jersey (surprise surprise). :-(

No luck on them in the Nashville area either (4 different Targets and nothing but a good lunch from the wife)

The only dc i have ever been into was justice leage...and those toys didn't do it for me. So not knowing who half these guys are and currmy articulation aside, the 4.99 price point has convinced me to buy them all.

WOot

Damn you all to hell, Mattel. What in Bob's name made you produce these at 1/20th scale, you irretreivable morons? Watching Mattel make boy's toys is just friggin' sad and pathetic, while being kicked in the 'nads. Who at DC do I have to write/fellate to get them to give the license to *anyone* else besides Mattel?

Infinite Heroes coverage from SDCC. Some really cool looking stuff in there like Killer Croc, Lex suits, etc.

What's that one thing in the picture:

http://i.toynewsi.com/g/index.php?mode= ... 00&start=0

Is it just a diorama they made to display the figures, or are they handling these figure like Hot Wheel cars? As in it looks like a figure dispensor.

Yeah it'll require hving a lot of extra hands to make these worth anything. All the hands will have to be cut off and the extra articulation needed to make them worth anything will limit me from getting too many of them. Which technically is a good thing.

I'm not a DC comics fan, so forgive me if this is a dumb question. Who is the guy in the suit with a blank face? Is he just a prototype lacking a face sculpt or an actual character?
