Easter comes early - DC Superheroes on ebay

[Meule]

Have they moved up the release date for them to start appearing in TRU stores?

Not that I have heard of. Doc said something about China sending over a couple of boxes and somehow those found their way into these eBay seller's hands

Here is a pic from someone who has a set.

Congrats on being the first here to get a set.
The emblems look OK to me, don't think they're too low or off-center.
Even the legs look better on this set than on the set in that bad eBay pic.

they look pretty good, hope Mattel rethinks the glove cuffs in the future.

What the heck?! Are these out now? I thought we had another couple of months to wait, but they seem to be flooding into the market place.

These look really nice, the superman looks a lot differant from what has been shown, seems a lot thinner, maybe just the shot? Im suprised there hasnt been more chat about these, people rushing out and getting them from ebay, after all the hype, I for one just wasnt expecting these to arrive, but cant wait to get them, just dont have the funds at the moment.

Going back to the bodies, and their posability, as a kid(and these are what they are aimed for), did u really care. At the end of the day, I was happy with a one knee squat, kirk holding gun in hand, or having them proped up behind books, waiting for attack, or having a cars/space ships, as long as I could get him in a sitting position I was happy, and walking them, the old in hand plod along. For me there was never, the lets have him in realistic pose I doubt any kid will be thinking that. I guess with better articulated action figures, this has become a must within the collecting community.

Overall I don't think they look too bad. I still don't like the thickness of the boots - I think they look like fishing boots - and I still hate the gloves. Easy fixes though. I also think GL's lantern and emblem are a little on the small size, but that just may be the pics. I hope the material isn't so easily pulled like GL.

I'm surprised at how excited I am to get these, I'm largely mellow about new toys but these are so damned bright and cheerful looking.

Not actually me. This is from another toy board. This guy lives on the west coast and frequently gets figures ahead of everyone else I noticed.

I just ordered a set from Game City. It should arrive before the end of the week,
if he ships promptly. If it's a scam, I'll sic Paypal and ebay on him!

I will say that the color of Superman's shorts came out a little lighter shade
of red than the cape. Not terrible, but it struck me as a little orangey next
to the bright red of the cape and boots. The emblem will make you weep.

Luthor comes with Kryptonite and Sinestro comes with a yellow lantern,
the same one as GL but Hal's is green of course.

I just did the same. I will post pics as well when I get them. Like Doc, I'll let everyone know if I don't get them.

Count me in on that as well.

Totally. I'm loving the bright colors on these. They are really eye catching and will stand out on the pegs. In comparison, all the DC Universe Classics figures have been so dull and dark in color. It's great to see a Sups with a bright red cape and bright blue suit again.

I would urge everyone to not succomb to scalpers. order them from amazon or get them at stores. That way the etailers and retailers will get sales that will then make them order more product telly mattel it's a good buy. be patient and let the scalpers hold the bag

[UnderdogDJLSW]

I've got an order that I placed a bit ago with BBTS, I'll see when that comes around or if I find them from TRU 1st.

Diamond Solicitated these figures for 26.97 Before Tax..., Right ? If you Bought 1 Green Arrow From Matty,.. and Nothing else..., Wasn't He 28.97 or something Shipped ? If you actually Scene these Hanging on a Peg at Toysrus ( Which I seriously Doubt,.. I will ever,.. atleast not with mine Here) ... Lets say these were infact 19.99 ... + Tax,.. what's that ? 22.50 ?
If so,.. I seriously Doubt that this is that great of a Mark up..., Let alone a Scalper to the Degree that He wants to try and Rip you off .... Looks like His Prices are pretty right on me ... Just Saying ...

I'm with you there bk.
This ain't no scalper. Just a toyseller who got the goods in earlier than expected.
Prices are right on the money - so to speak.
