Which DC universe classics do you own?

[Mr.Marion]

In my opinion they were the best modern line of super hero figures. I wish they still continued the line since there was some holes to fill (Weather Wizard, Speedy, Mera,Aqualad, Super Powers Mister Freeze, etc )
But Mattel did go deep and there was a little something for everyone. I've had a few over the years but I usually sell off to buy vintage.

Anyway, feel free to post pics of your collections.

It is one of the best DC lines since Super Powers and B:TAS. I have 95% of them but they are all boxed up. There were several I never saw in the store, most notably Gentleman Ghost. I never did get that one. And I never went after the Signature Series from Matty to finish the Doom Patrol and Metal Men. I keep going back and forth about selling them off.

With all respect to DC Universe-related WGSH Mego collectors (and all those hardcore toy nerds with opposing views), I think Mattel's DCUC is/was the best DC hero figure toyline---and will be hard to match in the future---and that includes the apparently similarly designed new DCC line that's debuting soon.

It feels like when Marvel Legends broke as the new hot format, everybody knew some kind of magic was touched upon with the presentation---and then Mattel improved upon it (and then did so again with MOTUC).

DCUC was so tasty to me personally, that it got meinto the 6-inch format and I've bought quite a few DC Directs 6-inch scale to compliment my DCUC collection.

Which ones do I own?

Basically, any that resemble their Bronze Age visage (1970's-early 80's).

Example: No matter how great the DCUC technical design is, there's no way in a million years I'd buy the "modern-look" Black Lightning they offered, so I settled for the DC Direct Bronze-Agey version.

All in all I have about 70 of 'em I'd say.... quite a few DC Direct to fill out the collection too.

Oh yeah---and I have customs----Wendy, Marvin, Wonder Dog, General Zod, Jor-El, Lara...

Love my Mister Miracle and Barda. Great to finally have a Perez style Raven as well.

managed to put together a Chemo Build-a-Figure which was fun. Wish I had assembled an Apache Chief, and hope to at some point get an Elastigirl and the rest of the Doom Patrol.

Bronze Age Aquaman and Batman are as far as my interest go in the DCU. But Even then you could go 10-12 figures deep.
I'm thinking of picking up a Titans set or maybe just kid Flash, wonder Girl, and Cyborg.

Even though it's a bit disorganized at the moment, my "top DCUC" section still says near a thousand words in this pic regarding Bronze Age/DCUC/our discussion.

Gentleman Ghost was reissued in a two pack with Hawkgirl for that reason. Although it doesn't help the Giganta builders.

As long as you like them and aren't in a pinch I'd stay keep em, or at least the ones you're into.
