I have not heard of them yet.
3.75 I believe. Only found at conventions for now. Or eBay I guess.

Re: Post your Action Figure hauls!

They really could benefit from a wrist swivel at least but it really depends if you like the new 52 aesthetic. All the moulded detail and the head sculpts are pretty much spot on. The packaging in my opinion is gorgeous, I like contemporary, some might not dig it. Bummer you don't get any accessories like a stand but overall they're a nice addition to a DCD collection.

So I'd say Yay.

The only reason to really pass up on these is if you absolutely hate the New 52 designs.

little gripe: I managed to break off Batman's arm -.- I fixed it with some super glue friction but I was surprised to find the peg joint holding the bicep swivel to be rubber, managed to 'rip' off when I tested the joint...is that common?

Picked up a set of the 5 inch TMNT "turtle" figures, the rest of the line is utter crap.

BAH im jealous can't find them at all here in vancouver. I want to buy them and paint the weapons up a bit and give mikey some chains from keychains. I agree with you though the others have no knee articulation? What's up with that, what is this 1990.

I love the New 52 designs, so I'm definitely getting these. I have the 7 pack on preorder along with Darkseid. I saw the ones you have at my local comic shop, and just loved how they turned out.

I've never owned anything from DC Direct / Collectibles, so I'm not sure if that's normal for the bicep swivel. Bummer though.

Re: Post your Action Figure hauls!

Latest hauls:
- All 4 ML 80's Style TMNT from Big B Comics last week
- all 4 5" TMNT turtles, Krang an Shredder. Very disappointed with the villains. Krang himself is all cutesy and stuff but the lack of articulation on the bad guys is bad.
- Play Arts Kai Harley Quinn
- MOTU Spikor
- KO Fort Max Jr.
- Transformers Cyberverse Ironhide and Dreadwing
Coming up soon:
Maketoys Green Giant a.k.a Transformers Devestator
Human Alliance Leadfoot with Steeljaw

Hoping to find new TDKR Movie Masters wave. I have Batman, Catoman, Bane and Alfred. I needs to collect them all...

Re: Post your Action Figure hauls!

I finally found these at Canadian retail!

Marvel Legends Wave 2 (International Packaging):
Piledriver & Madame Hydra

Here is a quick haul video I made to show what they look like:

NOTE: I had to cut out the sound in the video due to the large amount of noise in the background.
