I've always been a DC guy, but as of recent I made the switch to MARVEL statues. I'm so sick of 50 different Batman and Superman statues! How long can the decision makers at DC ignore their other characters? No more props, movie statues or anything of the sort. How about some fresh faces?

Firestorm
Red Tornado
Solomon Grundy
Despero
Amazo
Eclipso
Lex Luthor
Captain Atom
The Demon
DOOMSDAY
Metamorpho
Penguin
Man-Bat
Plastic Man
Waverider

Please DC make these FULL SIZED statues so I can something other than my 90% Marvel collection.

They did release Sgt. Rock, Dynamo, and NoMan, all very obscure characters. But I strongly agree, too many Supermans and Batmans. How about Kirby style Omac, and an original Adam Strange would be cool!

i'd go for a set of Johns' Titans - Tim, Cassie, Bart, Conner, Gar, Starfire, Cyborg

and a Wally West Flash - Jackson Guice or Howard Porter style or even the new artist Ken Lashley would be awesome.

and please, for the love of God, an Adams/Rogers/Giordano/Aparo era Batman!

They already made a DC Direct Darkseid statue it was limited to 1300 pieces and I think that it's one of their best pieces. But I'd always take another!

wouldn't mind the Teen Titans from the One Year Later series. Characters like Cyborg, Wonder Girl, Kid Devil, Beast Boy, Robin in his new red outfit, and Ravager.

You have the new Shadow Pact, the new Doom Patrol and for villians, you have The Brotherhood. The possibilities are endless.

Let's hope so. Otherwise they are wasting another opportunity to become bigger players in this market. They will always make money, but with their list of characters, they could be #1.

I Have Never Really Bought Any Dc Statues. The Only One I Ever Had Was The Bolland Version Of Wonder Woman And Was Disappointed By The Size And The Details Of Wonder Womans Face. For The Price Range That Dc Is Selling Their Statues, One Would Figure The Size Would Be Comparable To Marvels Line. Although Some Are Pretty Nice, The Size Difference Is Noticeable.

Vince-Vell
05-09-2006, 11:09 AM
Ohh i would love Full size

Flash
Zoom
PowerGirl
Impluse
Capt Atom

If they do them like bowen style. Not into the recent ones like the flash with GG as his base.

I think we need to be careful of what we wish for.

They could price the HELLL out of these even if they are going to be cool.

That's why I don't like SS. Sure the stuff is cool. But there setting the wrong $$$ out there. look what BD did to the BDCC Namor. :banghead:

I fear,as to the future of collecting.

I don't think DCD will take into consideration that there are a TON of people
who are Marvel AND and DC fans.

And the pricing will make people choice buying one or the other.

That being said.

If they can STICK with the same scale for ALL fs's and mb's.

I like ---------------

Soloman Grundy
Firestorm-original recipe-NOT crap new one.
Hawk and Dove-with female varient
Nightwing
Firehawk
Frostbite
Earth 2 versions
Justice Lords versions-animated AND regular sculpts
Red Tornado
Hawkman
Black Adam
Teen Titans-orginal recipe,80's update with Terra,and current run :buttrock:
Baron Blood
Trigon-Raven's father ( ?)

That's a good start.

Remember DCD-----KEPP THE SAME SCALE!!!!

i talke to the big guns hired by dc and they recommended we petition for what we want together on a huge list to show how people want a change and what kind of changes!!!
like more characters from post#1, enough with the overly produced superman and batman, size being too small compared to every other company out there...and so on.

i stopped getting any dc stuff cause i'm convinced they're not going to make a change. how can the higher ups at dc be so clueless...don't they see eventual bankruptcy coming in their statue department????

do you guys also sense my frustration!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A)---How are why do you talk to the 'big guns'

C)---Is you talk to them why can't they just visit this website???

I'm game for whatever will get thier attention.

And,yeah. It's pretty obvious that the 'guns' are NOT either collectors or
'have a handle on the pulse" of DC collectors.

I think it is probably safe to assume that none of the "big guys" at DC visit this site. I also would also guess that the notion of a petition would accomplish very little. If you like a product, buy it...if not, then pass on it. Simple as that.

05-18-2006, 12:22 AM
?!?!?!? You really think that all the HH stuff looks like crap? I'm personally a Bowen fan myself, but I think that the HH Cap, Hawkeye, SS and Hercules are very nice looking statues. HH is really starting to produce nice looking statues.

Okay, crap is a bit of a harsh term I admit, but they're definately not worth the money being asked for them, IMO. Why? Here's why...

The bases are awful. Bland, simplistic, amateurish.

They all look really squat. Like the gravity in the Marvel Universe was cranked up to 11.

The facial features are unattractive. They all remind me of George Perez's early work back in the mid '70s on the Avengers, before he hit his stride. Pick up an issue and see for yourself.

Hawkeye's hands...nuff said.

The proportions are all across the board. It's like a Rob Liefeld nightmare come to life. Thor's arms are as thick as his legs, Cap's upper body dwarfs the lower 1/2, and ALL of their hands are about the same size as their heads.

I honestly can't see anyone paying more than $100 for any of them.

MY god...finally someone agress with me...everytime i put a negative spin on HH , alot of people come to there defense....I mostly collect Bowen, and whatever sculpts i think are good. Granted some of the HH is good (Thing, Hulk, hercules looks pretty good) but everything u mentioned is dead on....

For the most part ...there asking prices...are on the high end...Every piece is starting out at $200?

Dc Statues Overall Are A Disappointment. The Sculpts While Not Bad Could Be Better And Their Size Is Small As Compared To Mr. Bowens. The Price Is A Big Factor To Me As It Is Much More Expensive As Compared To Mr Bowens With Ratio To The Size Of The Piece As Well. Dc Has Alot Of Untapped Potential Here But I Think Their Shortsightedness Is Their Undoing. I For One Would Love To See A Piece Made Of The New God Orion As Well As Others Of His Ilk. I Am Sure I Am Not Alone In This Sentiment.

I'd be down for a Deathstroke, Deadshot, Phantom Lady, Orion statues. And maybe a Green Lantern series (not crazy about the angry face Hal they released a while ago). A better Hawkman (mace wielding Hawkman), and rereleases of Darkseid, Spectre, and Krypto would be nice as well.

Deathstroke, Deadshot and Orion would be great! I'd rather have new characters then the GL, Darkseid and Spectre done again. I personally love the Spectre and Darkseid stats that came out already. The one DC Direct HAl statue was good, but I'm not a fan of the 3 piece set. And I don't see the point of the dog until all the main 1st and 2nd tier characters are done.

Firesrorm & Doomsday ( 1st and 2nd )
Lex Luthor
Red Tornado
Solomon Grundy
Amazo
Booster Gold
Hawkman ( A good one )
PARALLAX
Waverider
Orion
Parasite
Bizarro
Penguin
Man-Bat
Riddler
Black Adam
Brainiac
Captain Atom
Clayface
Deathstroke
Despero
Dr. Light
Dr. Fate
Eclipso
General Zod
Gorilla Grodd
Hourman
Ice
Ion
Two Face
Starman
Scarecrow
Ocean Master
Mongul
Metamorpho
Hawk & Dove
Maxima
Imperiex
Deadman

And I'm sure I'm missing a couple more that I'd like to have. :buttrock:

ALL FULL SIZE!!!!!!!!

I would have thought by now they would have at least put out a line of Alex Ross full-size statues. Even if they did just the characters in his new "Justice" series I would be interested. That series alone will have a huge cast of heroes and villains, both major and minor.

Problem Is They Don't Listen To Regular Fans. I Used To Ride On The Lirr With Some Guy Who Worked At Dc And I Gave Him A Few Suggestions And He Looked At Me Like I Was Some Retatrd. Guess Thats The Dc Mentality. Their Statues Are God Awful With An Exception Of A Couple. Pitiful At Best.

dc doesn't read anything from the forum so i hope ray can guid them here and they'll see what collectors really want.

i stopped buying dc statues and won't get anything from them till i see consistent change and i hope the rest of you guys stop as well. you can always get it later on from ebay. i want dc to see a declline in sale so they'll look into making changes.

ofcourse we'll have to get ray's creations since he is our buddy and all them babies need to eat! :)

I know. Some of their alex ross stuff is good, but frankly I am getting tired of it. The need to go back to the oldies. I am hoping that they start producing some Premium Format figures like sideshow, but from what the superman looks like, it will be another failed line. Maybe dc should give some of the licenses to Sideshow or at least, some other company....
