Man, I should have bought those figures when I had the chance. Nice Batcave Detour, where is from?

It's from the The Dark Knight toyline. X-Pandables playset, they called it "Bat-Bunker", but between the workbench, the change wall, the wall of gadgets and the Tumbler hangar stickered back there, it's just the Batcave with a different name.

They also did a "Lair of the Joker" set like that, but it was more one-third bank vault, one-third abandonned warehouse used by criminals and one-third jail cell... Far less impressive than the batcave.

Nice playset! You mean, DC hasn't made an Oracle figure yet? Odd considering how long Barbara has been around...

They made some Oracle figures, just not in DCIH style.

Well. For Kyle Rayner in my DCIH collection, I had two options.
1) Pay ridiculous premium prices for the Parallax one that essentially solely exists so Hal Jordan is more easily forgiven for being possessed by Parallax because, hey, it happened to Kyle too you guys!
2) Customize my own.

Naturally, I went with option 2.

(IMG:http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t285/Detour84/DCIHKyleRayner.jpg)
Pretty straightforward, I used Clear John Stewart's body, which works because it's essentially the same costume design Kyle had in STAS, and Marcus's head from the Terminator Salvation toyline, which looked nothing like the actor and worked well for Kyle when he's drawn with shorter hair.

That looks pretty good Detour.

I have a soft spot for Kyle, since I grew up with him as the Green Lantern.

Kilowog's tippy toes pose means he has to lean against the backdrop, until I can find an effective method to reshape his ankles and knees to a proper upright position.

Regarding Larfleeze's Lantern, Mattel answered that he always hugs it close, being the lantern of greed, so there is no handle.

Batman Beyond looks like he has matte paint instead of gloss now, or maybe that's just the photo. SPrime's headsculpt looks terrible.

I'll still buy them though. Sigh.

Did some mods to my Beast Boy custom, much happier with this update:

I wish they would read the comics. The orange lantern has been drawn with a handle every time I can remember. It was in the debut of Larfleeze, and was drawn in the most recent New Guardians issues.

All DC figures are 50% off at target this week. That makes DCUC figures $8, and I saw the entire STRIPE wave today. I could have saved $50 bucks on them. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/icon-megs.gif)

It's my personal belief that katanas are grossly overrated.

That's why I gave my Deathstroke figure a rapier instead.

The Legion of Superheros 12-Pack is going back for sale some time in the future.

Considering how much Matty wants for DCUC figures now, its a steal! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/icon-wheelie.gif)

And sadly, I still can't afford it. On the bright side, I am enjoying my new house, so I guess I can't complain. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/icon-fire.gif)

I have 2, so I really have no business complaining. The best part is that in 5 years, house number one is paid off and the rent will help pay house #2 off early as well. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/icon-ironhide.gif)


To contribute to the thread, I should bring up that there is a chance Nekron from DCUC Wave 20 is not coming with his scythe. I just bought this one to make sure I get a complete figure.
