to those who own any DC icons, what ur general consensus on those figures? I'm toying with the idea of setting up a display of them, but wanna hear some opinions, since I don't own any I absolutely love them. Like PJ said, they dont mix well with other DCC figures because they're smaller but all together they look awesome.

Seeing them posed together like that makes the Mattel figures look even worse than they already do. But they are also 1/3 the price. $20 vs $60.

Normally, I would agree...but I don't buy that excuse when it comes to these figures. Look at the Multiverse comic figures. They're great. The ones based on movie and television properties look like steaming turds. Mattel dropped the ball on almost all of these figures. It's especially egregious when you look at other comparable figures at a similar price point.

It's especially egregious when you look at other comparable figures at a similar price point. I think its the human sculpting that makes it hard. I have Jakks Nintendo, and SH Figuarts Nintendo, and they look much closer(articulation aside). Its weird though because I like how Mattel WWE looks way more than Figuarts. The faces are detailed and painted but then the bodies are pale and flat looking color wise. Plus all the weird shoulder cuts.

I will say at least they got the shape of Margot Robbie's face correct. Most of the more pricey figures look like Malin Akerman

Can anyone recommend a good Doomsday figure? Most of my collection is DCUC but recently I got into the multiverse line. Can anyone weigh in on the DCUC Doomsday vs the Collect and Connect Doomsday?

The Multiverse King Shark wave is up for preorder at Big Bad. I am waiting to find them locally though because they are $129 plus shipping so that is probably $40 more than they will be if I find them locally.

I only want Joker from that set. Batgirl looks nice too though.

So it looks like both the single release and the 7 pack Icons Wonder Women will now have the headsculpt with the windswept hair featured on the red/blue/gold version. I think it looks much better personally but it does suck for the fans of the original. Updated Original 7 pack

I like both heads so Im not really bothered. I just hope the new Rebirth Batman is a little bit taller.

Mezco is killing it. If I had a bigger bank, I wouldve went that route. I like the scale much more than say Hot Toys or NECA.

That Batman will be mine. Looks fantastic. Wonder Woman needs some work though. Her legs especially at the knees are way to thin.

Hoping that Superman gets a little fix on the head. It looks a bit off.

This past December I had held off on Big Bad shipping my DCC Arrow and Flash box set, because they got it in stock a couple days before Christmas and it wouldn't arrive in time for Christmas. So I decided to put in in my pile of loot until something else came in stock. So when my Mezco One:12 Punisher came in stock I had them ship it and it will arrive tomorrow. Of course now I received an email saying my daughter's Stranger Things POP's are in stock. Well one is (Eleven with Ego) but we are still waiting on the Michael POP.

I have a question for you DC guys. I'm entertaining the idea of building a DCEU movie shelf I've already got the Multiverse BvS Batman figures. My question is, do the Man of Steel Movie Master figures match, or are they the same size as the Multiverse figs? Obviously they have covered BvS, Suicide Squad and the upcoming Wonder Woman fairly well, but would like to include MOS too
Can't afford to build this with the import companies, so I assume Mattels Multiverse line is my best option? Not very familiar with the DCC stuff

Not very familiar with the DCC stuff MOS fits in perfectly with multiverse figures. When I get home I can take a pic of my DCEU shelf. The only movie master figures Ive seen that dont really fit are the dark knight series and green lantern. They're a little shorter but still dont look terrible on display.
