Just another nerd.
I’ve always thought that Mister Freeze was one of the dumber Batman villains, but the Batman: Arkham City version won me over. The art direction on that game gave Freeze one of the best looking superhero/villain costumes of all time and this action figures captures that perfectly. Captain Cold, however, still sucks.
Interesting 1/6th scale Batman action figure from DC Direct. This, of course, is the Batman from Alex Ross’ Justice series. Not sure about this one — the body sculpt and cape are awesome, but that’s one fugly-faced Bruce Wayne under the cowl there.
DC Direct has a nice line of action figures based on the Batman: Arkham Asylum videogame coming out in 2011.
Just in time for the Jonah Hex movie, comes a 1/6th scale movie version Jonah Hex action figure.
Really debating whether to pre-order this DC Direct Wonder Woman prop replica featuring the famous tiara, bracelets and lasso. Awesome looking prop, but at $325 it’s starting to approach my “are you f’ing kidding me” threshold. But it would look really cool on my bookshelf . . .
OMG, this brings back memories. It was 1978 and I was ten years old when DC came out with this huge over-sized comic book depicting Superman vs. Muhammad Ali in the ring, all at the behest of aliens who wanted to determine Earth’s champion as part of an intergalactic match by an alien invading force.
I read the crap out of that comic over the next couple years. I would do anything to have this statute on my bookshelf…well, anything except pay the $250 asking price. What we really need is a Superman vs. Ali double pack of DC Universe Classics.
