DC Collectibles Darkseid deluxe figure

[ditch]

I just had the latest DC New 52 figures from DC Collectibles in the shop today Wonder Woman and there first deluxe figure in this line Darkseid.

Here is a picture of Darkseid on the shelf next to DC New 52 Parademon and Arkham Asylum deluxe Titan Joker.

I was thinking of getting the Darkseid figure does it look nice in-hand?

This is out already?

 

[Animal Mother.]

I think its on Diamonds ship list for tomorrow. Nice looking figure, but if thats how big he now is in the comics, his size is way too exaggerated imo.

Without a doubt the greatest Darkseid figure ever, I just wish that he wasn't £80 in this country. Price is really killing my enthusiasm to buy it.

DC sent me an e-mail this week with instructions on how to re-attatch the shoulder pads should they come off that does not bode well.

I still think mattel's C&C darkseid from wave 12 is the best...

Agreed. Love that figure. Even though I think the NU look is cool the classic is best hands down.

I really want that Darkseid but what keeps me from ordering besides the price is that I prefer the original look of Darkseid

This looks awesome. Does anybody know when the justice 7 pack will be released and where I can get it in the UK?

Gotta go Kirby for Darkseid. I agree that the DCUC CnC figure is the best version.

BBTS has a Mattel DC Unlimited Darksied figure ( NU 52 ) for pre order no pics yet though.

Just found a pic and it is a 6" figure.

You guys saw the boxed JLA set? i got it for 85 at CSC. 85 for seven figures was too good to pass and it displays excellent in box.

That's Mattel's new figure. I don't think they are even trying anymore

Yeah, it's a prototype, but I can't see the final figure being much of an improvement. This is precisely why DC Collectibles and Mattel should try to tackle different subject matter rather than competing with the exact same versions of the exact same characters.

Though a nice solid chunk of plastic, $90 is just too much for a single action figure, especially one in a pretty lame New 52 costume. I wish DC Collectibles would go back to using that hollow plastic they used for Mongul to bring down the price a lot for these oversized figures. It does feel cheaper in hand, but it'd be worth it to pay $30 rather than $90.

Is this meant to be forced perspective?

This DC 52 version looks great. I wouldn't mind getting one.

This on the other hand is god awful and looks stupid. Man does it suck so hard.
