    Kudos on taking popular images of popular heroes and putting them on a card. Great work.

        Huh, looks more like the original card art to me than anything custom done. So, I guess they got the idea from the originals.

          So you got DC's permission to use its images on products you resold? Because FTC did.

          If you did the same please let me know and I'll happily share in your outrage.

            Let's keep the focus of this thread on the awesomeness of this line rather than self praise and finger pointing.

            I'm super excited for FTC's next cool line.

              The images scream Super Powers. BTW I love the deeper blue for Superman's costume, looks better than the original.

                  Toyroom, your stuff is freaking awesome and don't ever let anyone tell you different. (It's so awesome I just ordered seven boxes from you!)

                      Captain Marvel versus Superman is just to cool for words. Thankfully Doc Mego offers fist hands!

                        I'd be more excited about fist fighter bodies. Glad I didn't get the 1st run except for riddler.

Because I want to have fun making Captain Marvel beat up Superman.

                          I do wish the figures had fists though. I mean, being true to the originals is all well and good but some improvements are just so obviously a good idea that they should be allowed. Fists are in that category.

                                Since FTC had done a FF body already I knew it was a matter of time the fact that they've used the SP card instead of a FF box is fine by me. I am liking the character choices but A card alone won't sell me to rebuy any FF's I already had but expanding the action that is intriguing. NOW if there was a neal adams/jim aparro style BATS on that card that would be a MUST BUY.
