Of course the 6 inch crowd is paranoid many toy companies are moving towards the smaller scale.

True but they illogically turn their rage at the 3.75 inch line.



I won't argue that, but it seems like a lot of rage is illogically placed in this hobby.


Truth.

THANK YOU!! I was hoping they'd be hideously under-scaled like the DCIH crap.


NOW I HAVE NO REGRETS IN NOT GETTING THEM! :D

Underscaled compared to what? My DCIH figs are perfectly scaled to fit in with toys like A-Team, classic ARAH Joes, Star Wars figures, Star Trek figures, Terminator Salvation figures, Redakai figures, Build'n'Brawl...

Perfect.

I own very few MU figures for a reason - the figures are to tall for my classic 3.75'' taste. While i like the Marvel Universe Captain Marvel body (it isn't to tall) i prefer the the larger more heavily muscled Guardian body type.

Unfortunately that means i have to cut almost half an inch off of the lower legs of the Guardian body type just to make the figure fit in with true 3.75'' figures. Without the modification the Guardian body type pushes 4.5'' tall.

If WWE Build N Brawl figures had been created in solid colors like Microman figures i'd have no reason to purchase Marvel Universe at all.
If these figures are 4'' tall or (preferably) slightly under i'm going to purchase multiples.

Since the bulk of my toy buying is modern joes, i need toys that compare to them. So MU works, Indiana Jones, starwars, and A team are all close enough, DCIH star trek terminator and many others are all way to short. I have also noticed with my DCIH and jazwares stuff mushy lines in the sculpting, which doesn't fly with me any more.

but those new ones are articulated and look to be better sculpted, so I might finally have a decent selection of teenager fodder.

Kilowog might be fine with bigger legs swapped in.

This is what the Infinite Heroes line should have been from the start, smaller DCUC figures.

Nice DC figures, who's the Big green guy ?

Does anyone know if Matty Collector's store will have these available for purchase ?

The big all green guy is the MU exclusive Radioactive Man. The GL figures aren't Mattel, so MattyCollector has nothing to do with them. eBay is your best bet for them unless they move forward with the line, in which case these will get reissued.

These are going for absurd prices on Ebay right now, so the majority of us will never have these, stupid move on their part as making these available only to conventions :-(

Damn, the secret is out!!!

Oa is actually a place in China!!.

Why oh why did it take so long for the Earth to get a GL?


More questioons than answers now.

Or maybe Oa just has power lanterns made in China.

I guess they get decent quality and a good price.
