I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.

Man, what's with the build-a-scene statues? Are they even trying? I would've been interested in a Superman Family dio, but it's not looking any better than the Batman Family one so far. Granted, I didn't think the Batman Family one was as awful as others did, but I ended up not keeping it. I just don't have the space for "average". And it has a whole two parts and the "Family" is Power Girl, Superboy, and Steel???? Do they read the comics? No Lois or Jimmy? Krypto? This is more like the "Superman Extended Family" statue.

I'm all in for the little DCUO mini-statues in the hopes that we'll get some variety as it progresses. I do like the character designs.

Kinda interested in the True Blood statue. I'll need to see some close-up pics...

Supergirl is on the side with Steel and I don't really care for Superboy but this dio is already 100 times better than the Batman one lol. Powergirl looks good and Catwoman & Huntress you could tell right away they were horrible.

Every piece in the Blackest Night mini bust line has looked amazing so far from the previews.

I don't know. I thought Power Girl and Superboy both had the same "average" look that seems to be consistent with the last two build-a-scene offerrings. I guess it's a little better than Huntress (anything is better than that Catwoman), but not by much for me.

I am happy about it, though. DCD just hasn't been too kind to Superman lately. First that atrocious Superman Vs. Brainiac statue and now this. More stuff like this = less stuff I feel compelled to buy...

Yeah I totally agree. Can't they make a Superman VS Doomsday statue instead? I am sure there are lots of collectors out there to buy Doomsday than that atrocious Superman Vs. Brainiac statue

I was so disappointed over that Catwoman too! I mean how can they make her ugly?

I like the Sookie and Bill statue, but if it turns out like their horrible busts, forget it.
