    DC Universe Stand Figures ...

    Yeah,.. So what are all the characters they have released, or re-released with just the Stands ? ... I found a Ronny Raymond FireStorm Today,.. so the Question Had me Curious... Here's what I have found so far...

    Green Lantern Hal Jordan
    Batman (Blue)
    WonderWoman
    Shazam!
    Flash
    HawkGirl
    Ronny Raymond FireStorm

    Feel Free to add any others....

    So whats the Deal with the Stands ?
    IMO,.. These things only Kinda work to begin with ...
    Most characters, the Peg is so loose in the Bottom of the Foot,.. & comes loose real easy.

    Whats up with the Placement of the Stand ? I mean W-T-F ???
    You have 1 peg on the end,.. & thats it...,
    If you wanna have your character in a Dynamic Pose,.. Like one leg down,.. & the rest of him in a Flying Pose,.. it's very difficult to Achieve this ....

    & What,.. they throw the Stand in with the Popular Characters,.. instead of a BAF OR CAC Piece ? ... How much does one of those Cost to Make ? A Piece , what 25 Cents ?... A Stand , what 1 cent ???

    Yeah,.. I dunno about the Stands,.. I just wish they worked Better.

    I've also seen Robin with a stand as well.

    Yea, the stands don't really do much for me, although I did buy Batman with it to keep MIB and I'll probably get Robin when I can find another one MIB. I haven't found any wave 8 yet and haven't taken Flash out of the package yet to try them out. I can't imagine they work too well.

      The Idea of the stand is pretty cool.
      The reality of the stand is,.. it sucks, doesn't work very well,.. & the placement of the peg is Stupid.

          These are being done on rereleases of popular characters like Batman or GL. I've seen a few of them on the pegs with waves that they didn't originally come out. Guess this is Mattel's attempt at trying to keep a Batman in every wave again.

            My son bought the "World's Greatest Super Heroes" (where have I heard THAT before?) re-release of series 1 Batman this weekend. On the back it pictured Robin, Wonder Woman, Shazam, Firestorm and Green Lantern, I believe. Why they picked Shazam when his wave is still on the pegs is beyond me. What about Nightwing?

              Forget the blasted stands keep the BAF parts.
              Lo there do I see my Father.
              Lo there do I see my Mother and my Sisters and my Brothers.
              Lo there do I see the line of my people back to the begining.
              Lo they do call me.
              They bid me take my place among them.

                Ok I agree about the stands but I think it is good at the same time for those who weren't able to get some of these figures the first time around and on ebay some of these are pretty cheap. I just picked up shazam for 5.99. Can't beat that deal.
