DC Universe Classics - New Waves

*Spitfire* · 06-10-2009, 06:45 PM

The Giganta wave just hit and Chemo is coming soon. I've collected from all the waves and I have to say this new wave is skimping. The BAF of Giganta seems underwhelming for how massive she's supposed to be. One figure came with a base for her, which I thought was lame. Another came with her crotch and head, I seem to remember when those came attached to the torso. I like almost every figure in the line so I might go all out and get them all.

As of right now I have Gentleman Ghost, Yellow Parademon, Modern Dr. fate, and Hawkgirl. As much as I loved these characters and their looks I feel they've dropped in quality a bit. The articulation is still very good but the figures arms and legs aren't as thick. Also the paint seems more basic. It doesn't have the same feel to it that the others do.

See how he looks here

Well here's what he really looks like

I just think it's weak they didn't keep them looking as nice as they did in the promo pictures. I think them being so shiny makes them look less like collectors items and more like just plain toys.

Anyone else have these? What do you think of them?
