They're not nice....I bought the Captain Atom (as he was Steve Trevor's war buddy in Perez continuity....so I needed him for the WW collection). Dude's arms look like stubby little flippers. Overall nasty piece of shit, that.

I passed on this wave myself. I'm pretty much Superman/Batmanned out & the others just didn't interest me. I'm looking forward to the JSA Atom 2pack & the Huntress fig from the Crisis waves.

Same here. For me a complete set would include Mr. Terrific, Johnny Thunder, Star-spangled Kid & Hawkgirl from the gold/silver ages. That makes for a crowded shelf so I'll probably pass on the modern age JSA figs even though they look pretty snazzy.

Cool! That looks like it is meant to represent the very EARLIEST Wonder Woman ..shortly after she was first introduced....

I like this WW but it's pretty much a statue (a tippy one at that). The FA WW is the one I use on the JSA shelf.

They're both terrible. I just confused the crapass Superman/Batman line with the crapass Identity Crisis line that DCD put out recenlty. Both are absolutely shit-tastic sculpts.

I feel that the 4.5 and 10 inch JLA figures based on the animated JLA - JLU series are excellent. I have both sets of the seven main characters.

Yeah, better yet it's the one from Jim Shooter's classic run on Avengers. That would pretty much complete the lineup for my bookcase cept Jocasta. It's been fun seeing characters that you would never figured being made in stores right & left.

I always liked Jocasta. Her being a robot was rather unique. Too bad they destroyed her. Damn....

That's pretty cool. I'll have to do some searching for that in the near future.

Now, let's play a game called "DC Direct vs. (Mattel) DC Superheroes." I'll post pictures of figures as made by both companies and you judge whose kicks more ass.

Let's get started with some side-by-side comparisons starring the figures from DC Superheroes wave 4:


DC Direct (DCD) Crisis on Infinite Earths Brainiac(left), DC Super Heroes (DCSH) Brainiac (right)





DCD Crisis on Infinite Earths Lex Luthor (left), DCSH Lex Luthor (right)





From left to right: DCD Darkseid (From New Gods 2 Pack), DCSH Darkseid, DCD Superman/Batman series 2 Darkseid




Now for the "judge for yourself" comparisons:


DCD Batman: Hush Batman






DCSH Wave 3 Batman






DCD Return of Superman Steel


DCSH Steel






DCD Secret Files Mr. Freeze


DCSH Mr. Freeze





DCD Infinite Crisis Mongul



DCSH Mongul





DCD Superman/Batman series 2 Supergirl


DCSH Supergirl

Thanks, Beardy...but I really didn't like those ones. That's from the 'Pony Tales' series that ran long after I outgrew ponies (only to re-connect with them in my late 20's... ).

It's all about the original pilot episode in my head actually ('Escape From Midnight Castle' or 'Firefly's Adventure')...everything that's come since is complete shit.
