    DCU Trigon Review }

    This Guy IS Bad Arse !!!
    Raven's Daddy in all of his Evilness Folks !



    I actually just completed him over the weekend.
    I got a bunch of his parts very Cheaply ...., he seems to not be that saught after, as say Giganta, Kilowog or Solomon Gundy,... perhaps it's also because he is new as well, so his parts are actually pretty Damn cheap right now for the Most part. I actually as of right now, only Have Superboy and the Blue Devil from the wave, ... I hope to get Donna for sure .

    Your Part Run down...

    Superboy } Left arm
    Donna Troy } Head & Dick
    Cheeta ( bother versions ) } Left Leg
    Blue Beetle } Right Leg
    Negative Man ( Both versions ) Right arm & staff
    Blue Devil } Torso
    Cyclotron } stand ( nothing )

    The right arm that comes with Negative Man ..., and the Torso that comes with Blue Devil, are the hardest pieces to collect. They seem to be short packed characters perhaps ..., or because of the 2 different ways you can get this set with the allstars, they are not included with those..., so for collectors to watch stuff, I'd say your best bet with this wave, would be those 2 guys.

    The Torso for Trigon that comes with Blue Devil Features your 1st ever Cloth Cape on a DC Universe figure. Thats right Guys,... it's cloth. Bringing back some Super Powers love. It's attatched to the colar piece, and then plugs into Trigon's back. The cape also features a Wire in it, and is Fully Posable,... and this Cape Completely Blows Retro-Hero capes away..., it's hard to Believe that Mattel makes Both ..., as new product in the same yr.

    TRIGON Comes with like 35+ points of Articulation and is about 9 & 1/2 inches Tall from Feet to Colar. ... About a little over 9 to head. I thought He was Awesome , and Wanted to share.

      I bought Superboy and Blue Devil ..., so that's like 34 right there, paid 9 for the right arm and staff ..., I think like 8 for the left leg, got the head, pelvis and right leg for like 14 .. so around 65 with 2 figures from the line. I still wanna get a Donna ..., just haven't found her yet. So basically for Trigon and the 2 figures, I paid less than half of what a complete set costs on the net.

      I'd get maybe Cyclone too, if I had ever scene him in stores.


      BTW ..., again... the Blue Devil and Negative Man parts are very hard to get right now..., they might not let up either. Every wave always has 2 figures that a a pain to get,... I'd say it's them 2 for this wave.

          I've never scene them instores.
          Ebay ..., there's a few seller's selling figures for about as much as you would pay instores, and a lot of people sell parts for him for good deals. On the Matty site, there's a few Trade threads too, for parts and figures.

              Out of this wave I'm really only interested in Blue Devil, Negative Man, Wonder Girl and old school Cheetah for complete figures...

                I hated both Cheeta's ..., I did like the 1 without clothes,.. but then they went and out clothes on her.

                Other than that, I agree with you,... but Also liked that Cyclone dude for some reason...., And Superboy is Bad Arse imo.

                        I didn't know you paid attention.

                        To be honest, it's probably more, I counted real fast.

                          Wow he is AWESOME!! I have seen Donna, Cheetah, and Superboy in stores.

                          After seeing him put together I might have to hunt him down.

                            According to Michael Crawford, the modern "naked" Cheetah is also being produced. So there are really 3 Cheetahs out there. I want the classic version, myself.

                              Thats what they say on the Matty Site and there is a couple on ebay ..., but they go for bank compaired to the other 2 versions.
