Atrocitus: MINE!
Starman: MINE!
Platinum and Tin: MINE!
Flash 1: MINE!
Rocket Red: MINE!

Poison Ivy: Sell it.
Black Mask: Sell it.
Metron with Mobius Chair: Sell it.
Mirror Master: Sell it.

So far I'm just over the halfway mark with wanting to keep these.

It's nice to see them listed like that as it shows they are doing a good mixture of good guys & bad guys!

I know Screamy doesn't collect the baddies...but I love them!

My local comic store Comics Etc (Brisbane) has Wave 20 of DCUC in stock ($25 each) and Wave 2 of Batman Legacy - Catman, Silver age Batman and Batgirl ($20 each)

Yeah was thinking of collecting a couple DCUC figures from Comics Etc during my next work trip\stay in Brisbane

Hey chums,

Anyone had a renewal confirmation for their Matty DC sub? Mine hasn't.....

Hey chums,

Anyone had a renewal confirmation for their Matty DC sub? Mine hasn't.....

Via MattyCollector's Facebook Page :

"P.S. Please allow an additional 5-7 days to receive any order that includes The Flash or The Mighty Spector."

This is due to the fact that the warehouse only recieved the stock on the day of sale, not a week before like usual.
so look for that charge later in the week or early next week.

i know i'm looking forward to getting my Jay Garrick Flash

They have the new DC All Stars at Comics Etc Brisbane for $30 each. I grabbed a set right there and then as the line is becoming even more iffy when it comes to distribution. They look pretty neat but there is some scale issues with 2 of them:

- Batman (New 52)
- Superman (New 52)
- Red Robin (supposedly Tim Drake but he towers over Batman)
- Superboy Prime (excellent figure but again way too tall)

really looking forward to seeing more New 52 characters

Are Red Robin and Superboy Prime too tall or are New 52 Superman and Batman too short? The general impression I got from online reviews is that the New 52 figures have been "shrunk" in comparison to the standard DCUC scale.

[Mahzian]

I haven't cracked them open yet but it looks like New 52 Bats and Supes are the same scale as DCUC but Red Robin and Prime are taller than the regular DCUC buck (when being teens they should be even shorter)

[Xenaphobia]

Ah. That is a bad sign of things to come. Then again, most of the upcoming figures are going to be New 52, with the exception of SP Penguin and Injustice versions, so perhaps the problem won't be too widespread.

[Artistix]

I am soooo buying the SP Penguin!

Such an awesome figure.

I think we might be lucky in this case and it's just Matty cheaping out and reusing parts from other bigger scaled figures rather than retooling them on a smaller buck (new teen buck ala Legion set would have suited Red Robin and Prime more), here are some scale comparison shots with Red Robin and Wave 3 Hal (also never really noticed how bright green is lantern was!):

RR is just wearing "lifts" like Tom Cruise and Robert Downey Jnr.

Haha never thought Tim had issues about his height but it makes sense!

Hey has anyone received their CIE Black Mask yet? I'm still waiting for mine and it seems like ages since I received Mirror Master, starting to get concerned...

[Artistix]

No Black Mask. But I did get an e-mail (2 days ago) saying my credit card was declined for the Black Mask/Black Lion order.

Called Matty & they said they try & take the money again 6 days after a decline (thankfully).

Still, not sure why I'm getting a message now about figures from last month.

[fuzzcat]

I recieved mine yesterday - anyone chasing one?
