    Worst Superhero Action Figures of all Time?

    My vote goes to a tie between

    The original Toy Biz Storm...


    and the original Toy Biz Lex Luthor


    Given how awesome the Super Powers line was just a few years prior, there really isn't any excuse for toys as horrible as these two.

        I don't think FourArm should be mentioned. I liked that figure,.. & wasn't that bad for action figures in 91,.. or 93 whatever yr it came out. But I am Bias.. I like action figures with multiple arms,.. I think it's neat.

                Bonebreaker is definitely bad. I rember Toys R Us having him an K'ylun in the shevles marked down to $1.99 5 years after their release.

                That Toy Biz Lex is Terrible. - I agree that Forearm is not bad - neither is the original version of Storm

                How about FC Daredevil?

                Hulk's Zaxx?

                Even though it may be blasphemy here - the mego CAH were all pretty bad esp WW.

                  Brue I agree CAH WW has got to be the worst figure! She looks like a man or she-hulk WW! Maybe John Bryne had something to do with it, His WW looked like she-hulk! LOL!

                    I was going to say that,.. but the Question was "worse Super Hero's".
                    It's sad,.. because I do have that figure.

                      I got to say if I'm measuring a superhero figure line against any marginal expectation, I think the little Spiderman 3 movie figures were easily the worst of any line made and not at all deserving of the price Hasbro asked.

                        Total Justice. Some of the female characters were ok, but the males were just plain ugly. And what was up with the curved arms and bowlegs?

                          Hmmmm....

                          I'd go with pretty much ALL the late 80's/early 90's Batman figures. Repaint after repaint after repaint.... "No, he's "Tiger Cammo Chrome Justice Batman!!!"

                          *sigh* HOW many Batmnas does a person need, anyhoo?

                            Those were the worst.

                            I brought them up by accident in the DC Direct "worst" thread.

                            When I think of bad action figures, I think of those---

                            and, you know what?

                            The sad thing is---- at the time --there were so little superhero figures
                            out on the market that I actually was happy with them

                            It was cool to unload them on Ebay and get a decent price

                            The bidding was probably pumped up because I had so many loose and
                            complete
                            "No. No no no no no no. You done got me talkin' politics. I didn't wanna'. Like I said y'all, I'm just happy to be alive. I think I'll scoot over here right by this winda', let this beautiful carriage rock me to sleep, and dream about how lucky I am." - Chris Mannix

                              Mego's Comic Action Heroes. Cripes, even the 3 3/4 A-Team line were better action figures.
