I definitely think flash is around the corner too.

I could have done without ALL the revisits and taken a classic Flash and Martian Manhunter PF instead (among other characters). Finish off the classic Big 7 at least and then start in with the revisits.

I imagine transparent resin to show the coin flipping in the air with his coin at the top of the transparent resin. Making him look like he has the viewer in his sights and he is letting his coin decide to pull the trigger or not.

EX could be a change of left hand with a different size gun ...and an even angrier face.

I'd buy it.

I don't even mind the revisits. I'm more upset that the first line wont be continued when they only had two left to do. I wanted fabric, captain morgan poses, origin bases, the whole nine yards.

I think this Joker is really cool and looks great but the first one was magic. I realize there are many who much prefer fully sculpted, myself included, but the cut and sew on Joker makes it.

These six revisists will sell regardless of costume choice due to the popularity of the characters but I would’ve preferred six new DC characters in classic costumes. Seems the only option now is the Tweeterhead line to get a variety of DC characters.

For me it doesn’t end with the seven. I want at least Green Arrow, Hawkman, Hawkgirl, The Atom, Shazam, Red Tornado and Plastic Man. A Legion of Doom to oppose them would be good too. Teen Titans would’ve been nice too.

Yeah but I could have forgiven them for changing direction after the seven. Doing it before was kinda douchey.

SS has never struck me as a company with a sense of direction lol.

Kudos to the art direction. Will be keeping an eye on both.

As far as character selection, I'm not sure.

I can't help but think it's savvy to always keep a few A-listers in the chamber to keep people on the hook.

Collectors are looking at it from their own interests obviously. Part of me is frustrated to see them basically re-do most of the DC line as the direction for the next couple of years when I'm sitting here waiting for the Flash, among others, but I'm not sure I would attribute it to lack of direction on SS's part.

Lack of direction in the sense that money/business largely dictates what statues get made, not necessarily the direction or choices of the art director(s). Occasionally they may take a vote and throw in a wild card character, but for the most part they stick with what makes money(repeats etc). Though i suppose that would make money SS’s sense of direction.

Granted in saying that it baffles me why they haven’t made the flash, he’s arguably the 4th most popular and important member of the league and would be a huge seller. Even though i think he’s gonna be at sdcc2018 i’m surprised he hasn’t been made yet.

Lastly I Love everything SS is currently doing as i have none of the original trinity, harley, joker, ivy or the marvel pfs
