It's true that this is the best, since the other one is built that he must be on steroids. And don't forget this one had a gold variant.<br /><br />I learned to like Captain Atom during JLI too. He also got to be the leader of Justice League Europe.Tom Freakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11109775660565731009noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-874789746848317241.post-3914084189391845952010-04-08T02:17:49.321+08:002010-04-08T02:17:49.321+08:00The only figure I have had a real problem with so ...The only figure I have had a real problem with so far, barring warping from packaging, was from Deathstroke whose joints all felt welded shut. The sucky thing was that I tried lightly twisting one of his arms back and forth trying to loosen it and it twisted OFF. I was not happy.Prowl26https://www.blogger.com/profile/04652239459793802051noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-874789746848317241.post-59874560794659560682010-04-07T06:55:16.758+08:002010-04-07T06:55:16.758+08:00Oh wow, the horror stories about some figures just...Oh wow, the horror stories about some figures just continue to amaze me! And on a Riddler, to boot! I hope the store took that back and gave you the entire Wave 5 in exchange for selling you a ptotential chemical weapon (ok maybe not quite...)<br /><br />Pity you don't buy DCUC anymore. Agree that the pricing's getting out of hand. Anyway, I've always been picky about getting characters that I only really want. Those and the one I'm lukewarm anout and are on clearance.

I don't follow DCUC info as closely as I once did since it's a miracle if I ever see the figures I want in stores anymore... and when I do, I generally balk at the price and leave them right there on the shelves.<br /><br />I've had plenty of problem DCUC figures, but the worst was that Riddler dripping mold grease. Ugh. If they'd put that slimy thing in a package, I wouldn't think some faded paint would faze them in the least!Weshttp://www.scary-crayon.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-874789746848317241.post-67192945434255609242010-04-04T20:03:29.575+08:002010-04-04T20:03:29.575+08:00Actually I'm serious, but I guess I've bee...Actually I'm serious, but I guess I've been luck not to have had any worse issues than these. ;) Oh, I do have a Superman Blue in package with a huge gash across his chest--the seller was nice enough to include a loose one that was fine when I bought it from him. 2 for the price of 1. :) Sometimes I think when the QC dudes in the factories are switching shifts, they let a few figures slip by them on the conveyor belt. ;P<br /><br />Well Wes, I think you're gonna feel that loss you mentioned because Huntress has been announce for one of the upcoming waves! Hasn't she?... :PSirDragonBanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09061860978530022895noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-874789746848317241.post-70470099907929390752010-04-04T12:36:28.153+08:002010-04-04T12:36:28.153+08:00"The gloves look a tad faded, as if they used..."The gloves look a tad faded, as if they used the wrong shade of paint for 'em. These, along with the bobble headed-ness, could be why the figure didn't make it past QC."<br /><br />Ha ha ha, you're kidding, right? DCUC figures with WAY worse problems than those have been admitted for packaging without so much as a second glance. ;)<br /><br />Anyway, fun review! Now that I actually have a Superman, I kinda wish I hadn't passed on this figure -- that JLU fight was indeed awesome and memorable. If I ever get a DCUC Question and Huntress (if they ever make one), I'll feel the Captain's absence even more strongly.Weshttp://www.scary-crayon.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-874789746848317241.post-89998768434080681192010-04-02T02:57:33.659+08:002010-04-02T02:57:33.659+08:00Yeah, I've heard great things about the JLI se...Yeah, I've heard great things about the JLI series.
