What nobody noticed Jarro?

Got in a few of the Starro spores years ago and surprised I found one.

This was one of those DCnU stories most people forgot about.

True story: I got some of that last wave direct from Kenner in Cincy because I couldn't find them at retail. Cyborg, Capt. Marvel, etc. Just wrote a letter to Customer Service, ah those were the days. I think I was a senior in high school.

Curious who is reading this and do you get the reference?
Let's me know who reads comic books/comic strips.

Yep, it's why I don't own one!

I really hope McFarlane issues a near-replica. Just different enough so vintage collectors don't lose their crap over it.

OMG the price for a loose Cyborg is ridiculous!!! PXL_20241211_171743610.MP~3.jpg

Put that thing behind glass! My biggest collecting regret is I passed up Cyborg for Captain Marvel in 1986, and I didn't buy one when they were still somewhat affordable.

Since I am now "Home Alone" I started going through boxes and buckets and found my original Kenner Super Powers Cyborg! Not sure if I have his other hands anymore but this made my day!

small nitpick, but they should have made the orange scaled top all gold on Aquaman like how Alex Ross has drawn him, but the gold sheen on it is nice. Booster Gold should be done this way too.

I can't believe it! I found the metallic chase Aquaman in the wild. I never have luck like that.

Awesome! Congrats on your find.

This is really tempting! Thanks for sharing. Just wish it wasn't so darn tall at 25 inches. if it wasn't only 12 -13 inches, the right size to fit on a shelf, i'd probably buy it in an instant!

Awhile back Pottery Barn released a bookshelf playset based on DC Comics Hall of Justice. Not sure when this came out or how much it originally cost. My BF gave this to me before he left to go back to Thailand for a month. He told me this will give me something to play with whild he is away.

It is nice but really needs some help.

Metallo? Oooh, one can hope. I love recent, larger McF Metallo, which is a design c. 2008 but in homage to the '70s.

Received the Riddler today from EE (he's the only one i wanted from that wave). Surprised that he is on the same buck as Nightwing rather than the shorter, more recent Green Lantern buck. Doesn't really bother me, but i thought McFarlane was shifting to shorter bucks so that their figures would better match the Kenner figures.
