More goodness from Mattel, this time full-on images of the 14th wave of DC Universe Classics. This wave is a Wal Mart exclusive and set to hit stores later in the year. It includes Alan Scott, Gold, Hourman, Kamandi, Obsidian, Tyr, Zatanna and the Collect & Connect Ultra-Humanite. (Note: Zatanna is not [...]

DC Direct’s Cover Girls of the Universe line of statues continues on strong with its fifth piece, Power Girl. I have to admit, this is the first statue from this series that hasn’t completely wowed me straight out of the box…but for some reason I can’t place *exactly* what’s bothering me about it. [...]

A new goody arrived at my door yesterday afternoon, the Hippolyta as Wonder Woman minibust from DC Direct. This is the first bust in the third series of WotDCU busts, the third series being based on the designs of artist Amanda Conner. So I figured what the hey…if I’m going to upload pics [...]

Two of the more popular (and expensive) DC Direct 6+” figures have seen a rerelease (kind of) thanks to the Mad Love Box Set issued here in early 2010. Read on for the two-minute review and image gallery.

This wave includes seven individual figures – Copperhead, Desaad, Dr. Mid-Nite, Eclipso, Iron, Mary Batson and The Spectre. As usual each figure comes with a piece [...]

Lots of new statues have become in stock this week – two from Usagi Yojimbo, the Koto Bishoujo Scarlet Witch, the Marshall Rogers B&W Batman statue and the Kobata Hanato Ani-Statue.

Each month I get excited around mid-month to see what DC Direct has to offer in the way of statues, and as usual this month offers no disappointment. For starters, my favorite line of minibusts, the Women of the DC Universe will have Amanda Conner’s Power Girl added to its third series. The [...]

DC Direct has announced a third wave of figures from the JLA Classified series. This set will include Green Lantern (Hal Jordan), Superman (Red), The Atom and Zoom. These 6 3/4″ figures are due in October.

A brand new series of figures is on the way from DC Direct this October, Superman: New Krypton Series 1. The figure series will include Brainiac, Mon-El, Superman and Superwoman. In addition to these figures coming out in October, feast your eyes on a Superman/Supergirl 2-pack based on Superman/Batman: Supergirl.

DC Direct has announced two more additions to their Anime-inspired Ame-Comi line. The next two additions are Star Sapphire and Jade. I’m pretty happy to see Star Sapphire get some love in this line, but reeeaaaaallly would have liked to see her get some recognition in the Women/Cover Girls of the DC Universe [...]

DC Direct’s 13″ line continues with an interesting but welcomed choice, Terry McGinnis as Batman Beyond from the cartoon series of the same name. Bruce Wayne has gotten old and retired from the superhero biz, and the young McGinnis steps in to fill the shoes of Gotham’s vigilante crimebuster.

The arrival of my first Heroes of the DC Universe minibust – The Flash – gave me the opportunity to set up another category in the Photo Reviews section. Of course now I need to go back and fill in the blanks (ie, the other six busts from the line), but in the meantime [...]

It’s called “Two-Minute Reviews”, and in this reviews I’ll take an encapsulated look at certain action figures. The first Two-Minute Review will be six figures from [...]
