Here is a general thread to discuss your recent Super Hero Toys & Collectibles purchases

What have you purchased lately? Post where you bought it from? And what do you think of it?
 
Re: Recent Acquisitions - DC Direct Edition

The Dark Knight Returns Superman-Nice Figure, but the tip of the kryptonite arrow seems to fall off quite abit. Bought from the Universe of Superheroes in Athens Ohio.
 
Re: Recent Acquisitions - DC Direct Edition

I've been collecting the 13" DC figures. I've got Superman, Superman Returns, Batman, and Aquaman so far. Shazam should be shipping next week!

Batman Hush: Huntress,
Infinite Crisis: Power Girl and OMAC,

Re: Recent Acquisitions - DC Direct Edition

Just bought the Silver Age Superman: Perry White today, nice figure, but I the Daily planet paper doesn't seem to fit in his hand.
 
Re: Recent Acquisitions - DC Direct Edition

Superman/Batman: Darkseid and Supergirl
Justice Series 1: Bizarro, Sinestro and Cheetah. Superman is still on the way.
 
Re: Recent Acquisitions - DC Direct Edition

My 13" Shazam arrived today! I'm really enjoying this line but wish they'd make more soon. So far I have Superman, Batman, Superman Returns, and Aquaman. Now I'm just searching everywhere for a Green Lantern to go with the rest of the team.
 
Re: Recent Acquisitions - DC Direct Edition

Superman/Batman Lex, man is this thing huge!
 
Re: Recent Acquisitions - DC Direct Edition

i have a question just picked a shazam kingdom come figure from a seller just wanted to know if it is common for kc figs not to be taped sealed (tape on top sides of the box) as compared to the dark knight returns figs and new frontier figs just want to make sure i didn't get a resealed figure (im a moc collector) hope any of you guys can help me out thanks-pichon
 
Re: Recent Acquisitions - DC Direct Edition

All DC Direct figures should be tape-sealed regardless of what series they are from, so it could be a resealed figure, or it might just be a factory fluke, lets hope it is a fluke and that you didn't get cheated.

Re: Recent Acquisitions - DC Direct Edition

I just received the five figures from the Death of Superman DVD set, and Batman and the Joker from the Batman and Son set. They are all very cool. I was just a little surprised to see DC Direct making tiny Mattel-like figures for Superman. They're neat, but don't look anything like any of my other DC Direct figures.
 
Re: Recent Acquisitions - DC Direct Edition

Dark Victory Batman for $5.99 at my local Suncoast - last one, too! Couple of Scarecrows left, no Penguin/Robin, LOTS of Commissioner Gordon.
 
Re: Recent Acquisitions - DC Direct Edition

This little beauty arrived just a few minutes ago.



 
Re: Recent Acquisitions - DC Direct Edition

That's a great figure. I don't know how she fights crime in that outfit, but I really don't care that much.

Re: Recent Acquisitions - DC Direct Edition

Just received my FREE Kingdom Come ReActivated set of figures from the CTR trivia contest for Toy Fare '08.

Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman & Green Lantern! This is so awesome and to think I was just about to purchase them at my local Suncoast within a month!

Thanks to Legends Action figures and D. Martin!

Re: Recent Acquisitions - Super Hero Toys/Collecti

Picked up a Batmam Begins suit MM. They had 3 of them left, no signs of any Scarecrow or Joker.

x1 Batman Begins suit TDK MM
 
Re: Recent Acquisitions - Super Hero Toys/Collecti

I bought Absorbing Man and Wendigo today. Not worth the $30+ for two figures. But I never saw Absorbing Man in that Spiderman Classics 2-pack from years ago that goes for large cash. So I got him. The only 2-pack I ever saw had Punisher in it, and I passed, as did every other human on the planet.
 
Re: Recent Acquisitions - Super Hero Toys/Collecti

Picked up a Zoom- DCinfinite Heroes from target this weekend.
 
Re: Recent Acquisitions - Super Hero Toys/Collecti

I picked up all four new Marvel Legends two packs at WM in OKC.
 
Re: Recent Acquisitions - Super Hero Toys/Collecti

I picked up the JLU Lashina/Forager/Mantis 6-pack today at Target.
 
Re: Recent Acquisitions - Super Hero Toys/Collecti

picked up the new DCUIH figures
 
Re: Recent Acquisitions - Super Hero Toys/Collecti

Target brought out a case for me. 3 each of Zoom, Shazam, Adam and Guy. Has anyone seen Atom, Black Adam or Black Hand?
 
Re: Recent Acquisitions - Super Hero Toys/Collecti

Grabbed TDK 4inch pack of Goon and Batman. Batman is okay but Goon is about 4.5 inches. Way too tall.
 
Re: Recent Acquisitions - Super Hero Toys/Collecti

just waiting for w1 of the 3pks.
 
Re: Recent Acquisitions - Super Hero Toys/Collecti

Dudes I totally scored a unmasked MM Batman today @ lunch! Never thought I would see one of these in person.

Okay this edit is because I think this is cool....

So I decide I need to go up to Target to grab some sundries and what not, and I of course swing by the action figure aisle. Lo and behold on the pegs sits 2 Green Lanterns, Variant Corps Sinestro, Variant Unmasked Deathstroke, and a Nightwing?! No Robin. I'm like WTH?! I didn't think both variants shipped in one case, and obviously someone had been there before me, yet all they took was Robin? It was a real AF Twilight Zone moment.

black or white fury?

I think he's probably talking about the Ultimate WWII Captain America and Ultimate Nick Fury 2-pack
 
Re: Recent Acquisitions - Super Hero Toys/Collecti

Oh....I saw the real Fury in some SDCC photos. I was hoping he was out.
 
Re: Recent Acquisitions - Super Hero Toys/Collecti

Re: Recent Acquisitions - Super Hero Toys/Collecti

Picked up Hulk Legends Wendigo for $5.00 at my local Wally! They are renovating the store, so there are some good, ACCIDENTAL deals to be had!

Re: Recent Acquisitions - Super Hero Toys/Collecti

Lucky find.
smile.gif

There's only three I want, and I just can't bring myself to pay $15 each for them.
 
Re: Recent Acquisitions - Super Hero Toys/Collecti

Picked up the Marvel Selects Modern Thor at the comic shop today. Gotta be careful with his hands, the joints are sticking & I don't wanna break 'em, but he's a really cool figure. Close to Legends/DCU artculation, good sculpt, pretty big, and a nice representation of the art-style & overall design! Now I can completely forget trying to get the Giant-Man ML Thor.
