    Are the Teen Titans figures out yet?

    Been seeing auctions on Ebay and I hope that what is pictured in the auctions is NOT finally product. Looking at just the Starfire figure and there are so many things wrong with the figure from the bulbous head to the boots to the fact that they STILL haven't begun to even think about making a new female body. They still need new tailoring when it comes to those outfits. Disco Nightwing looks good outfit wise...but it just sags on the body. The head sculpt is just awful. I just don't understand why they don't do a talent search on this forum or any other for the GREAT customizers here or elsewhere. I understand that they have a mass produced product...but get it right the first time BEFORE you go into production and the crap details will be weeded out. Again, I hope that those are proto's and NOT final product. Cyborg looks like the only winner out of that line...but I already have my Leitner Cyborg and probably will NOT buy the new one.

    The only ones I see are stock photos that say 'prototype pictured' which are the ones that have been out for a good while.

      I got a shipping notice, but they are using FedEx slowest possible shipping, so it will be awhile.

        I'm assuming that is what is being used in the ebay auctions I've been seeing. I hope that we will be surprised with the finished product because those protos look awful. If they look like the protos then Figures Inc. may want look at doing a "Customizer's Search" like"American Idol" because it doesn't look like the figures are getting better. To put product out that is simply rehashing old product parts or using a sculptor that has no clue when it comes to scale is not a sign of a company that wants to get better when it comes to product. Again, just my opinion.

                    Sounds great!

                    So Junior's does not look oversized next to Capt. Marvel?

                    How is Cyborg's head in relation to the Marvels and Nightwing?

                    Thanks for the info!

                      Are figures or drawings of Wonder Girl, Jericho, and Changeling shown on card back?

                      If figures, pics please!

                        they're drawings,and Freddie is on a KISS/son of tarzan body but I think the suit is the same size as the others.looking ar cyborg again his head might be a little big.nightwing is on a standard body.Raven migh be my favorite female figure they've done yet,but you might have trouble putting on her shoes

                          You're not alone, don't apologize for caring.

                          Batman '66 aside, it's all just kitbashing at this point.
                          WANTED: Dick Grayson SI trousers; gray AJ Mustang horse; vintage RC Batman (Bruce Wayne) head; minty Wolfman tights; mint Black Knight sword; minty Launcelot boots; Lion Rock (pale) Dracula & Mummy heads; Lion Rock Franky squared boots; Wayne Foundation blue furniture; Flash Gordon/Ming (10") unbroken holsters; CHiPs gloved arms; POTA T2 tan body; CTVT/vintage Friar Tuck robes, BBP TZ Burgess Meredith glasses.

                            Thanks for the great info! Sellers at Amazon now have some photos of what look like the finished product, and all look much improved from the prototypes.

                              If those Amazon pictures are the actual product... wow! Nice job, FTC! And Mary Marvel has a clear head band, so they have listened to us!

                              Loving the belts they are using in Super Friends and Shazam! lines. I hope they start to sell them as parts.
