That's how I feel about most of the DC outfits. Stop throwing so much **** on them--too many lines, designs, shapes, pads, etc. I don't expect them to have them all running around in spandex, but tone it down a bit.
 
Flash also had the worst outfit of the team. It's got too many redundant lines on it. Less is more.
Nah, worst has gotta go to Cyborg. It's already been said but he really does look like a transformer. Flash is too busy but it's not horrible.

I won't deny he looks like a Bayformer, but I think it strangely works. It at least has a language about it where as Flash is a cluster **** of lines.

And with Aquaman, as Zod said "Do the Dew!" :lol
 
I thought about knocking the Doomsday price down, but I've never gotten a free statue or figure using points before. It'd be awesome to just pay shipping one time in my life. :lol

speaking of shipping, i got into a "debate" with sideshow on the whole shipping fiasco. i called and said i was tired of getting taken advantage of with shipping prices... not being told up front... and if i wanted to cancel after i was told the ridiculous price that i would loose deposits, etc. i told them i've sent them back packages and paid less as a consumer than they charged... that i've weighed packages they said were 5 lbs and found they actually are 3.5 lbs (drax)... brought up zod and i said i had a friend that is a state away that is charged the same as me in florida... etc... well after a long dissertation on how they don't make ANY money on shipping and how they LOSE money on shipping... the short explanation is that they ship with size estimates. so they say a box has an estimated "X" weight based on the box size. EVEN THOUGH it only weighs 3.5 lbs, they use some calculation on ups and ship on estimated size... which they say is 5+ lbs!! which is absolute BS... i told her that shipping is based on weight and overall dimensions with a "not to exceed" number... (which all these figure boxes don't do) but she said that they just go by what ups tells them and pass it on to us. again, piss poor customer service as it should be their job to send things the most cost effective way vs. just throwing our money out the window to someone else and shrugging their shoulders! i said that there are other more cost effective measures for shipping... but basically was told it is what it is, we, here on this forum, are a tiny sector of their overall business and our voices and complaints are basically falling on deaf ears. so basically long and short of it is they COULD measure the weight of the box and give an accurate weight to ups for shipment costs and save us money... but it easier for them to throw it over the wall on a truck and use some generic BS estimated weight and call it a day.

This worries me being in Canada. Next year I should have those 1/4 Batman and Joker coming from Sideshow, but I've never ordered from them before. Hope shipping isn't insane.

:lol Maquaman Randy Savage is a ****ing joke. I really hope they don't keep him that way otherwise his solo film will just be 2 hours of him chugging a bottle of whiskey, surfing a parademon, and shouting "**** yeah" while banging Mera. Entertaining? Sure, but not Aquaman.

They've never been able to explain their shipping charges in a way that actually makes sense. It doesn't surprise me though that they don't really care what the members of the forum think. Igo has stated as much on the other forum. Supposedly we are 3% of their sales so we don't matter.

yup... basically how it sounded to me. i said something how there were quite a few unhappy customers on this site and that lots of people are getting vocal about it etc... she kind of giggled and said something along the same lines. guess we are far from their radar! :slap

Equating him with Macho Man is all I'm going to think about now whenever I see trailers. :rotfl
 
:lol I like that gif.

He's another example of WB just completely missing the mark on who these characters are. You want to make him Conan under-the-sea? That's awesome, but you're doing it wrong.
 
Having him pretty much one color and covered in worthless scales... it almost makes me think of a Sea Batman.

The color scheme is correct, but there isn't enough contrasting sections of it.
 
Momoa's Aquaman to me just feels like they're trying to appeal to the lowest common denominator. It feels so lazy, and uninspired. "Oh... People think Aquaman is lame? Well let's hire this big, long haired dude with tattoos! One look at him, and you know he's cool!" Just going off the trailers he doesn't feel like a real character. It feels like a caricature more then anything.
 
So $235 is the now normal price for bare-bones figures with no accessories? Can’t believe they are charging you that much for the flash! Thank God I’m not a fan of any of the figures from this line outside Batman.
 
They are going for the female base with machaquaman .....more WB attempts at research marketing to please a mass audience...

The girls all wet their drawers for him in GOT....so they figure to have them all go with their geek boyfriends and do the same there....
