Sideshow acquires DC License!

[EVILFACE]

Glad I passed on DCD's oversized and overpriced "1/6" junk.

 

[thenammagazine]

A big ass grin from Nam! What's going on here?

Yeah i'm also excited by the possibility of some quality 1/6 comic figs from SS! Thank GOD I did not get deep into the DCD 13" stuff

It's GI Joe. That's all that needs to be said.

I almost bit on the DCD stuff for lack of a better option.

 

[TheMadTitan]

When will we see some updates? I want a Darkseid PF so badly! Then PFs for Black Adam, Deathstroke, Doomsday, Lex Luthor.. etc.

 

[BatFanatic]

After Joker, I'd to see the AH Catwoman- wearing her slick looking vinyl bodysuit.

 

[batfan08]

Part of me hopes (Probably not a chance, but still) That SSC would collaborate with HT on some of the bigger characters.

The first Hal Jordan and the first black and grey Batman were cool.

The first Hal Jordan and the first black and grey Batman were cool.

The only real issues I had were the height and how ____ty the cut joints look through the spandex. If that weren't the case, I'd already own the Ross Batman and Superman.

 

[VintijDroidGutzz]

Personally, I'd LOVE to see SSC attempt a 1/6 Neal Adams Batman!!

 

[JMW326]

I think the top of my list is a SSC modern Guy Gardner Green Lantern.

 

[CaptainTrenchcoat]

I just can't wait to see a DC comic 1/6 figure. No matter what it is, it's going to sell well being the 1st. Would love to see a 1/6 Dr Fate with removeable helmet.

DC Direct is making less and less every month. The future doesn't look too bright for them. Either Shrinking in size or disappearing?

DCD should just make action figures and call it a day

But even their action figures suck.

yeah man. Re-releasing lots of sold out action figures is not cool at all. Have ya guys seen the Batman Arkham Asylum figures? They have some of the worst paint jobs ever! The batman's facial skin was painted with dirt like mud! The Joker's face was mispainted so badly that there were more black paints than the white paints!!

 

[DREAMWALKER]

Cant wait for this one.

I think you're talking about the Batman Legacy Arkham Joker, not the DCD Arkham Joker.

This is the Mattel Batman Legacy Arkham Joker (I haven't seen it in person, but the paint apps look terrible, even on the prototype) ...

I have the DC Direct Arkham series, and the paint jobs are actually quite good. One of my favorite small-scale series DCD has ever done. The DCD Arkham Joker is possibly the best 7" Joker figure out there.

This is the DCD Arkham Joker ...

I am talking about the DCD Arkham series... The paint jobs that I saw in two of my LCS are no where near the quality of the pictures that you posted! The batman face that I saw was all covered up with mud dirt paint! Joker's face didn't come with shades like the picture on MWC toys page! Maybe it is different batches of the figures as my LCS just received these figures.

Must be, because the DCD AA figures I have look great.

Not everything DCD has made is junk, and not everything SS has made is gold. Stop talking like a 10 year old.

DCD has made some pretty nice pieces over the years:

I buy what I like regardless the manufacturer name stamped on the box.
