I saw a lone McFarlane Black Adam movie Dr Fate at the Edgewater NJ Target last night. So I was going to get it until I scanned it seeing if they had more of the set in stock. They didn’t have anymore, but the price rang up as $27.99!? So I put it back. After tax that’s $30 for one figure without a BAF. No thank you. That has to be a pricing mistake. They can’t really think these will sell well for almost $30?

Grr! My McFarlane Super Powers Superman took a tumble off the shelf last night and lost some paint on the left side of his head. But there’s also either a large scuff or paint chip on his left pec. Personally I think it’s a paint chip. A lot of my old Kenner figures are like that so no worries

I could see both Hasbro and McF. thinking to themselves, "Well these nerds will pay $30 to $40 for Neca and Super7. They WILL pay that much for us." And unless the lines just crash and burn, that is the price you will be paying from now on.

That’s what I was worried about but people at the Fwoosh said their store were selling them at the normal $19.99. So this store has to have entered it into their system wr0ng.

They should make Wonder Woman's Invisible Jet and a green transparent vehicle for Green Lantern.

They should make Hal Jordan for the Super Powers line. I would also like to see a Nightwing and McFarlane’s take on a Hawkman in the line.
And my McFarlane Arkham Killer Croc shipped from Amazon today.

I thought it looked fine in hand, but because all I could see in all the pics was a green tint once I saw my extra 7” Page Punchers Batman shipped from Amazon last night I repainted the first one grey. Because I couldn’t unsee the green tint in my mind. lol

If we get Dr. Fate, Green Arrow, Hal, Nightwing, Vixen, Black Canary, Red Tornado, Martian Manhunter, Starfire, Powersuit Lex, Joker, Shazam, Black Adam, Guy Gardner, Booster Gold, Blue Beetle, Aquaman, Black Manta, Fire, Ice, and Deathstroke in Superpowers would be great. There are probably more I could think of be it's late lol.

McFarlane Bane is up for preorder on Amazon He has been. Unless he went out of stock. I have had him preordered since July 15. And He’ll must have froze over because my two Super Powers Green Lantern figures arrived from Walmart today in mint condition. Not in a plastic bag like the Superman and Gung Ho figures, but in a large enough box with shipping paper keeping them from moving.

PJ he must’ve been out of stock then. I have checked probably once a day for a couple of weeks and just noticed today he’s $39.99 prime preorder

The other side of the room is the wrestling shelves. DC Wall 1 - DC Wall 2 - Wrestling Wall - DC/Marvel/Neca/Star Wars/Star Trek/etc Wall -

Concerning the McFarlane Super Powers line:
The Batman Who Laughs and The Flash are definite pickups. Which Flash is this, though? Who is it?
As far as what I would like out of the line, its mostly new vehicles: a new Batmobile, Invisible Jet, Joker Van, and other Joker related vehicles.
But I do hope this line has legs and stays for some years. Hopefully this becomes DC's version of MOTU Origins.
