Identity Crisis series 1

I just saw the Hawkman and Green Arrow figure at my LCS yesterday. I wasn't impressed by them. Did the other three look any better? (Zatanna, Dr Light, Deadshot)

I was considering getting these but passed as well. The only one might have been the Zatanna in her 80's costume.



DC Direct has a lot of competing lines of figures out there. I wish they would just pick a series and come out with a good number of characters from one line rather than put out so many different series, all of which will include Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman.

I did pick up the Bane figure from Knightfall. That one was nice.

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

When DC puts out a big time story line or limited series it's as automatic to come out with the figure line as it is a tpb... They're nice, but it is a glut...

Only the Deadshot figure was worth it, the rest were plain awful , the new Knightfall figures that finally came out were great though

I was only planning on picking up the Knightfall Catwoman figure, but when I went to my local shop yesterday, I couldn't believe how good all of them looked. Even Azrael's bad costume design couldn't turn me off. And Bane was huge! Now I want them all!

Yeah I picked up a Bane and Catwoman. That series looked great. And side by side with the Identity Crisis figures I saw, there was no comparison.

I hope the quality of the Identity Crisis series 2 is better or I will pass on these as well.

I am not an action figure collector but that Hawkman will be mine. The sculpt was done by our very own Ray Villafane and it's an awesome sculpt.
