I'd love to help, but 2 things: #1 I have not seen them around. #2 My wave 5 attempt didn't so well for you guys. If I actually find them should I get them and ask again? That Bizarro, just looks like a DCSH test shot:
I'm glad to read that you guys have been able to locate the 5-packs, at least I know they are out there somewhere! I haven't seen hide or hair of them in my area, though the Hal/Abin 2 packs have shown up again in the local TRUs. I really need to grab a few of those for customs. If anyone is willing to snag an extra 5 pack I'd happily make it worth your while, I've even got a couple of Hailstorms, WFC Soundwaves, and Animated Rodimus for trade fodder.
Got myself a loose Wave 1 Bats on Sunday, from a local toy shop surprisingly. Love the figure, but I don't really like the two-tone face mask. Any advice on paints to use for repainting?
I like the Folk Art brand of acrylics that you can find at Wal-Mart of any arts and crafts store. I know there are more "professional" paints out there, but for $1 a bottle, it can't be beat.
Well I finally did it. I opened 16 figures from my collection in the last few days. Here's the list: wave 3: Robin, GL, Sinestro wave 4: WW Wave 6: Dr. Impossible, Superman, Hawkman, Shazam, Killer Moth Wave 8: Green & Red Parademons, Modern Dr. Fate Wave 10: Batman Wave 12: GITD Spectre, Copperhead All Star: Green Arrow Of all 16 only 2 had QC issues: GL- both elbows stuck in position from package, Killer moth- right frozen sholder. Used the freezer trick on both of these guys and it worked like a charm. Very pleased with all the figures.
Picked up the GL 5-pack this morning. Was very pleased with the quality despite it being a very very half-hearted attempt for a GL combo pack. Honestly, if Mattel could have just gone the extra mile and remolded Sinestro and JS's heads, then it there wouldn't be much room to complain.
Rather early, but BBTS has put up pre-orders for: DC Universe Classics - Series 17 - Set of 7 with Build-A-Figure - DC Universe Classics Series 17 and Green Lantern Classics Series 02 - Set of 6 with Build-A-Figure - Green Lantern Green Lantern Classics I went ahead and got my foot in the door just in case either/both of these end up as another wave 8 situation.
Yeah, saw those two today... I'll wait a bit. I usually end up picking the figures up piecemeal on BBTS anyways as it always seems to take them so long to get their whole sets 'in stock'... I'm very impatient.
Holy crap. Not only is a DCUC product on walmart.com, but an exclusive one? Fingers crossed for wave 14 going up there.
Good lord, is that Guy Gardner or Larfleeze? I hope that head sculpt isn't as atrocious (ha!) as it looks in the picture.
WOW i love that Nightwing guess SP was rite about that prototype! DCUC Nightwing Variant Revealed - DC Comics - ToyNewsI.com
Called it! I KNEW it. Ever since Octane showed me that proto on ebay. On an unrelated note, does anyone here collect Infinite Heroes? I have 5 from Mallah's Revenge that I'm getting rid of.
I'd say so even though i don't have it, heck for Two Face and Lex alone thats worth it right other people?
