I don't have any of the Justice League figures from The Batman, but I will hunt them down one day. Barbara Gordon is next on my list. They need to make a Dick Greyson too. I think Dick would be hard to do. He doesn't have a cowl but like a mask which is hard to take off and on, unless they use a magnent... which I doubt they will (they seem cheap in that way ) The JL figures are nice. Superman actually looks really good (which I was surprised about) and Hawkman... err... I would suggest repainting him too. He is poorly done in that sense with his big brown wings...

Harley looks kick ass!!!
I can't believe they are still doing these guys. Its great to see they still care, cause JLU had some AMAZING character designs...
Now only if they'd do the same with The Batman... I want a Commisoner Gordon and Ellen Yin...

Received Giganta along with my SDCC stuff. Another very nice figure. I was wondering if she is the same size as the larger line? but she is only 8" so I was not sure....& I must have put my large scale Wonder Woman in storage. Can't find her anywhere! I am going to try & track down Fire/Ice & Barda sets next but they'll have to wait a little while.

Semi O/T - Question for Artistix.
I've recently gotten into watching Justice League/JLU and wouldn't mind picking up a few of the figures. I grabbed the "Original Seven Member" pack from TRU on sale, but they didn't have any single figures. I had a look at Big W, K-Mart, etc on the weekend but they don't seem to stock JLU.
Do you know any other major stores in Australia that stock JLU? Or have you acquired your collection via Ebay?
Cheers.

Welcome to JLU my dear sir. Do you know any other major stores in Australia that stock JLU? Or have you acquired your collection via Ebay? Target was the only store that was stocking these for a while in my town, but I have not seen them get any in for a long time. The last sets were the 3-packs with Vixen. A lot of my figures I bought when they were on sale in town. Since then I have hardly bought any. vslayntx, who posts here, actually helped me with a lot of the newer figures I have, particularly the women. But he's not in the game anymore & it's extremely difficult to find sources for these figures. My online Aussie suppliers won't buy them in at all for some reason. Best bet is eBay I'd say. That's where I'll be doing my JLU shopping.

Thanks Artistix.
I'll check out Target, but otherwise will resort to Evil-Bay.
Cheers.

MohahaBWAHAHAHAHA... Scored a nice lot on eBay a moment ago. Was soo excited I had to tell someone...well, someone who cared! ;D 4 news sets: Galatea/Supes/Huntress Fire/Ice/Lantern Captain Atom/Supergirl/Lantern Question/WW/Flash I've been wanting Fire & Ice for a long time. And it will be very cool to have Galatea & finally a Question to hang with Huntress.

Hope you nabbed the "good" Galatea.
Cheers.

Yeah, I'm not sure about that. I have not seen any comparison pics of her figure yet. Apparently the uglier version does not have eyebrows, & also has different coloured eyes. I just saw this posted on Fwoosh...WONDER PIG!! ;D ;D

The Galatea I received was the nicer version. Though she still isn't that great. Compare her to Giganta & you can see a vast different in their facial paint work. The Fire & Ice I received were soo horribly painted that I went online & tracked down the original release from a few years ago & they are painted much, much better. Plus they can stand on their own, these newer women have warped legs. Will take a comparispon pic shortly. Anyway here they are: A friend in the US is about to send me out a parcel containing the Lashina set, Katma GL 3-pack, Grodd set & maybe that 6-pack with Silver Banshee. So I mainly need to hunt down Barda & Star Sapphire now.

Semi O/T - Are you getting any of the JLU stands Artistix?
I've only got the "original seven" and don't really plan on getting any other figures (unless I can find an Aqauaman single - but so far I haven't had any luck). Mattel are only selling the stands in packs of 25 though.
If you're interesting in getting some of the stands, would you let me know if you have any left-overs (although I'm thinking that will be unlikely given your immense collection).
Cheers.

Hey Haeph, I've got all the stands I need at the moment. I don't think the men have holes in their feet for bases, which is unfortunate.

Post by Haephestus on Nov 10, 2008 4:00:08 GMT -5
Mattel's bases are meant to have three different ways of standing the figures (including some kind of clear slot for figures with no peg holes).
I'll try hunting some stands on Evil Bay.
Cheers.

love your Birds of Prey set Oatsey, I've been thinking of buying that for a few years. Modern Aquaman looks great too. I really need to bulk up my DCUC/DCSH numbers, particularly the men: My Aussie supplier sent me off the new JLU 6-packs with Tala & the adult Supergirl included & also a Booster gold. They are really cool sets & I love the new Supergirl! Now I mainly just need Harley Quinn, Barda, Star Saphire & Saturn Girl. If anyone is interested in getting a JLU Hal Jordan, a guy is making up the heads & I'll be buying a few to send off to my customiser to put them on properly painted bodies as shown below: As I've already ordered a few, I am offering them to anyone here a BTVSfigs for free! (not just the head, the whole figure, properly painted by my custom guy) If ayone is interested, send me a PM.
