I LOVE this DC Universe line! I have been collecting DC Direct and Marvel Legends for years and feel IMO that the DC Universe line are the BEST superhero action figures out there. Fantastic sculpts from the Four Horsemen and the PERFECT amount of articulation (not statues like DC Direct and not marionettes like ML's). I know there have been some complaints about paint apps but ALL the figures I have got have perfect paint apps. Distribution has been the ONLY down side to this line but I have found EVERY figure including most variants at Target (waves 1 thru 4) but classic Aquaman (which I later found two at a local supermarket Stop&Shop!). Also scale is mostly uniform and only $10.99 per figure and only five figures needed to build the BAF! This line is slowly replacing my DC Direct figures. If you can't find these at stores I would recommend ordering online with either www.Cornerstorecomics.com or www.Enchantedtoychest.com. Good prices and great service! BTW Marvelboi77 check out Wonder Woman in wave 4!

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

I just got my $25 Harley Quinn in the mail. Then sent it with a box that was just the right width, but plenty of room for the toy to bounce from top to bottom with no padding in the box. I just love getting bent cards and crushed tops.....

I pre-ordered Hawkgirl from Big Bad toy store. They have Barda for pre-order too, but I have never liked her...So I passed.

I'm not going to bother looking at Target everyday for these. I would rather just pay the extra $8(shipping included) and save the hassle...

I just got Deathstroke off eBay. I have yet to see any of these in stores here, the pegs are usually empty. Damn Toy Scalpers!
