Black Canary, Green Arrow, Wildcat, Guardian and Black Adam....they all look good.

Orion and Lightray in the background look okay too.

The Black Canary looks like the best of the lot there with the sculpting and painting. Now do her in that pose with her other costumes....happy cat. :-D

Green Arrow and Black canary are certainly a must-buy for my JLA display. I wouldn't be surprised if they released a variant BC in her current costume, though.

There does seem to be a move to produce variants. I'm glad too. You can have a collection like yours and be accurate or pick just the one(s) you like or have a Black Canary collection.

One thing that I still would like to see.... Black Canary, Green Arrow, Green Lantern and Warlord figures based off of Mike Grell's artwork. Hell add in the LoSH including those horrible costumes he gave Cosmic Boy and Colossal Boy. Night Girl...... :-D

The local target finally reordered the Despero series, but all they had were a shitload of Ares and one Captain Atom.

Since Cap was the only one I was missing, I picked him up.

Assembled Despero, but his left leg was a sincere bitch to attach. Knee and ankle joints are kinda loose.

Cap is a very, very basic figure. I really wish they were using more body types for these figures. But since he's one of my favorite DC characters, I had to pick him up.

Honestly I'll probably lay off buying figures for awhile until the Fury Files start popping up.

Ones coming out later this year are posted in this thread. However, the one's coming out next month are:

Hulk (Savage Green and Gray)
Bullseye
Daredevil (red costume)
Capt America (Ultimate)
Green Goblin (Norman)
Black Panther
Silver Surfer
Spider-Man (Black and red suit)
Wolverine (X-Force)
Punisher (two variants one with white gloves and the other more Max looking)
Iron Man (Extremis, Sleath Ops, and early 80s armor Ton and later Rodney wore)
Human Torch (Johnny)

And the same month there's a Wolverine Origins wave that is the same size that includes

Wolverine (brown and orange, current costume, and civilian)
Sabretooth (looks like original X-Men movies though a Creed in his comic attire is coming out in a set with Logan in leather jacket with a bike.)
Deadpool
Gambit

Future sets of Fury Files appear to have:

Nick Fury (616)
Spidey and Amazing Friends 3 Pack (Spidey, Ice-Man, and Firestar)- Toys R Us Exclusive
Hydra soldier
Blade


And that's about it I know of future figures sides the vote for the top five and they get released one.

Also goddamn Mattel. Anyone wondering why Neca hasn't released a Wave 2 of TMNT comics blame Mattel. Because they jumped on the bandwagon or leeching and are releasing their own TMNT comic wave. Wave 1 of course Turtles. Wave 2 Shredder, Foot Ninja, and Splinter. And honestly.. I hate Mattel.. because this is their Shredder:

More look at Mattel's TMNT:

Now Necca Shredder:

Now Necca is uberly pissed at Mattel and Mirage and may never release him. :cry:
