    Darkseid is Impresssive

    Just got my Darkseid and Black Adam. Darkseid, with the padding, bulkier head, and big boots, is about a half inch taller. I really dig how meancing he looks. There is no doubt this is a bad guy. I also dig the gold on Black Adam, really shiny and sort of magical. Although he does smell like glue? I tried to load pictures but kept getting invalid file messages. Anyways, these are great figures. Please, someone tell me when can I buy Shazam?

        Thanks

        I bought him, thanks. So I have all of Wave 4, either at home or on the way, and all before Toyfair.

          I tired to attach pictures but the site kept saying invalid files, so I am not sure how to attach them - sorry.

              Almost pulled the trigger but the fine print is conflicting. He says these are in stock and then later they are on an their way from Mattel and due in 7-10 days.

                    Darkseid

                    I will keep trying to get some pics. His body is grey, he has a big manufactures tag on his back but it can be hid by his removable belt. He has black plastic snaps. The padding is well sewn into his tights. Just a great mego-like figure. I can tell there was a lot of thought on how to increase his size but keep him true to the 8 inch format.

                      Padding

                      I take that back his padding may not be completely stitched in place, consequently I am afraid to take off his body suit because I am not sure if I can get it back on corrrectly. His blue smock is definately sewn to his grey tights, though. The belt is velcro, so be careful of snags. I give thanks for the folks who gave us this most unique figure. It is like nothing we have seen before - good job. The padding is white...

                        I sure hope this mattel Darkseid sells better than the one Kenner made for the super powers line. I remember seeing super powers Darkseids on beat up cards into the early to mid 90's.

                              I used the links to the seller's photo's to get a pic we can all see:





                              That bad boy is bustin` to get loose and take over the world. Looks like one pic is the Pre-release pic. Compare the turtle-neck, fists and gauntlet to the packaged figure.
