I saw a Fwoosh article on the DC Universe line of figures that are entirely the female superhero and villains that are generally aimmed at girls but also boys. I liked how they look a lot so I picked up a few of them, especially since they are ten bucks a piece and because some of them honestly look better then the DC Direct counterparts of those characters. Ivy is the only one I am not a big fan of the bunch. Also included in the picture is Dark Knight Returns verison of Superman that is exclusive to Walmart. While there is a DC Direct that looks more like the one from the comic, I do like how he looks more like 90s era Superman that I am familar with, including that curl in his hair.   I kinda like how my Rogue Gallery is a weird mixture of figure eras now. I really should get a Penquin and Two-Face sometime.

He and Daisy Ridley made good money for regular people, but for appearing in a multi-billion dollar film, they got peanuts. Ridley got $150-300k, and Boyega got somewhere in the same neighborhood.

Yeah but they're filming 2 now, and their characters were popular enough that they delayed the film to include more of them. Even a bad agent can get you a fat raise for that.

So if you're in one of these movies, do you buy the Hot Toy of yourself? Actors always seem excited when they get their own toy, but is it weird when it's one that detailed?

Boyega's shown pics of his collection before. Like anyone with class, he favours the Detolf.

But would you keep a copy at home, staring at you beside Darth Vader or Iron Man or something? Some actors don't even watch their own movies, because it freaks them out.

Fwoosh got a hold of the next Captain American wave already (jeez I still not even seen anyone from the Spider-Man wave), and a lot of them look great. But I think Nick Fury has been pushed into must buy now after seeing the alt head he has!

I was thinking of getting the Movie Nick Fury figure so I could steal his trench coat and make a passable Aaron Stack, but now I'm definitely doing that.

Oh nice, I found the Absorbing Man finally locally, and actually got Venom and Spider-Gwen as my work must just put them out. Almost bought the two Superior Foes of Spider-Man characters along with the Boomerang who been peg warming for a while, but might wait until I get paid to do that.

I actually found a Gwen but the paint on the hood was so god-awful I'd be embarrassed to pass it along. Like you're probably thinking "aw man it couldn't have been that bad!" but the white on top was smeared way inside the top of the hood, it looked like garbage.

How bad is Mondo with preorder release dates? I preordered the "The First Turtle Figure (B&W Version)" way back in May last year and their hasn't been a single update since then. The site even says it will ship 4th quarter 2015.
