Justice League Figures

Y2Bogus · 03-31-2004, 04:12 PM

Anyone else collecting the Justice League figures? I'm a fan of the small scale figures like JL and the animated Batmans, but Mattel is royally screwing up this line. The only figures I'm guaranteed to see on the shelf at any given moment are a hideos Batman repaint and a hideous Superman repaint. The case ratios do seem to be getting a LITTLE better. I managed to find a pair of Darkseids (and an Archangel, Toybiz you suck as well). Maybe I'm just spoiled by lines like TMNT and Transformers, where I'm actually able to walk into a store and find the figures I'm looking for. Heck, I can walk into a Walgreens right now and I have a reasonable chance of finding a wave 1 Hotshot figure from Armada. I wonder if this is just ignorance on their part, or if it's done to create artificial demand for figures.

I'm always tempted to get a Flash figure, but then I see the Batman toys that are all highly detailed, and look like Jim Lee's work, and wish that I had a Flash in that style. Then I get mad. I also hate that Bats and Superman have new figs with knee joints and Flash doesn't..He runs.Why would he not?

The latest wave has a Flash with the extra joints.

I really like the show, and the figures are really nice representations of how they look on the show. I's collect them if they weren't so damn expensive for the size.

Just give me Hawkgirl and Wonder Woman, thanks!

Batman's the only other one I'd get, but I have soooo many Batmans around here as it is...I was obsessed with Batman Returns for a while. The yellow scuba Batman is my favorite. So...yellow.
