It's supposed to be a late wave alternate. They apparently have a poor track record of producing them this far. The figure has not been mass produced yet.
I'm still waiting for the Lyra running change from the Red She Hulk wave. :sigh:

The good news is that China samples of this running change have already surfaced and retailers are actually taking preorders on the revision cases. So they'll actually ship these ones.

I ran into the Spider-Man legends figures for the first time last night. It took all of my willpower to resist picking up ASM2, Superior and Carnage. That Carnage figure is really nice, but I was a little upset that he didn't include an axe-hand (if he had, I would've snagged him). One thing I didn't realize was that there is a Julia Carpenter version of Spider-Woman in that wave. I haven't seen much talk about her--how rare is she, and is the figure any good?

Its actually not Julia Carpenter, its Anya Corazon, the new-ish Spider-Girl

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anya_Corazon

But that Carnage figure, hand axe or not, is incredible. Absolutely perfect first appearance Carnage. I've had him and Marvel Select Venom fighting each other on my desk for a week now, and I cannot stop playing with them both like I'm 10 years old again.

Oh wow, I had no idea Arana was Spider-Girl now. I just saw the mugshot on the back of the packaging and thought it was Julia Carpenter.

Have they announced if they're doing more Nintendo figma? I can't find anything, which would be kind of a bummer.

Speaking of bummers, I just learned they're rebooting Marvel Universe, as Avengers Infinity. The first wave is Cap, Iron Man, Hulk with the Banner armor, Hyperion, Wasp, and Grim Reaper. At first I just heard Marvel Universe was ending, but the new stuff looks pretty nice. At the very least I want the Hyperion and Wasp.

Well I found these at Target last night. Micro Muggs single boxed. They were 2.99 each. The box was on the slanted shelf under the new spiderman display.

Man, I didn't know how much I needed another tiny MODOK until right now. Are they blind boxes?

At least when I get tired of these they won't take up near as much storage space as the Mighty Muggs did.

'Marth' from the recent 3DS Fire Emblem is getting a figma. Bandai is doing a figuarts of Mario as well as a Lucario. Luigi is getting a Nendoroid and Wind Waker Link is as well.

Anyone have any experience with the DC Direct 1/6th scale dolls? I've heard their quality varies based on the dolls, but some of them are pretty good especially if you can find them for a good price.

I'm not looking to get into the line, I'm only interested in getting Sinestro. His advertised pics look great but I can't seem to really find any reviews for him.

Anyone have him that can comment on whether he's worth tracking down (and if so, how much should I pay for him)

I want a Sinestro and I really don't want to get some 7 inch plastic action figure. I want something that feels and looks more like a collectible

(in my opinion anyway)

The 13 inch line was terrible. We had a Sinestro sit on the stand for like 3 years without selling. Have you seen this guy?


Can be had for $50 on Amazon. There's also a GL version for $25.

Yeah I have seen that one. It's pretty cool. And I have heard the 13 inch line was really bad but I saw this image of the Sinestro doll



Now, that is a promotional image, of course, so I was wondering if anyone had him or had seen an actual one in a comic store and can attest to whether the actual product matches the promo image's quality (or least closely enough)

That's why I'm considering my options (that bust you showed is one of the things I was consider), I'm not really interested in his green lantern outfit, I want a Sinestro in his Sinestro Corps. outfit)

If you take him out of the box the costume will be in tatters within a year. I had the 13 inch Superman from Returns and his shield fell off 10 minutes after I opened him. There's a reason DCD stopped making them, the vast number of damaged returns was more trouble than it was worth.

wow. Well that is some lovely quality. well thanks for the heads up. One last question. Are you referring to the costume will basically fall apart even if it's only displayed?

Well I guess I'll have to go with a bust or wait and see if the Play Arts Kai DC line releases a Sinestro. There is a premium format statue coming out soon but that's way too expensive for me.

If you ever touch him it'll prompt the stitching to start unraveling. I've seen afew figures still in the box with costumes coming apart.

Ah well then that probably would be bad for me, as I like to change a figures pose sometimes. Guess it's that bust then. I mean unless Sideshow or Hot Toys is going to release a Sinestro, but I can't see that happening since the Green Lantern movie tanked, and has soured DC's marketing department toward the franchise somewhat. According to IMDB, there's a sequel, and if that sequel does indeed come out and Sinestro is in it, then maybe there's some hope for a high quality 1/6th scale Sinestro . And hey, while I'm at it, I'll go ahead and hope for a 1/6th scale Scarecrow.

Thanks for your help Rhyno, I will probably be ordering that bust you recommended very soon

I have the battle damaged one and you're probably right, they really nailed it. Instead of pumping out Iron Man's they should start pumping out Schwarzenegger figures. Conan, Running Man, Kindergarten Cop, Junior, etc etc. I would kill for a Pumping Iron figure with a 'Arnold is Numero Uno' shirt.
