I've been scouring RUclips for a good and in depth review of this pack that didn't bore me and you delivered that in SPADES! You earned a new sub and id love to see your take on the Flash and Arrow 2-pack they recently released
Hi Brad, first time watching one of your reviews, I stumbled upon it searching for dc icons. Excellent detail calling it out like it should be and comparing figures, size and toy line. Can I just point out that some how superman needs his red trunks, red boots with the yellow belt. think ill be making minor adjustments to my rebirth superman and batman figure. Thank you for sharing this great review.
+Marcos Kain I think my favourite interpretation/design of batman lay somewhere between the pouch belt Jim Lee version and the classic Neal Adams. Although the rebirth suit doesn't rank high on my list I can see why it may be just right for others. It's definitely a departation from anything we have seen. I'm glad you like it.
Love the review, good job! However, I have yet to see a comparison of the DC Icons 7-pack vs the New 52 7-pack, just to see what figures would work from the latest if one wanted to mix and match. Still, you did a detailed review and answered a lot of questions for potential buyers. I am a DCU 6.5"+ figure collector, and trying to decide if I should find this WW on eBay. The only thing I am on the fence about are all the closed fists on the figures, including WW. What were they thinking? Also, Wonder Woman without a lasso, let a lone a sword and shield? I think that was a huge miss. Thanks for the review.
I would love to do a comparison with the Icons New 52 7-pack but DC Collectibles cancelled it. saaad. They should have at least given us the Batman, Superman, and Wonder Woman from that pack in a Trinity box set.
I got the set and you have the same concerns I did. For me, I display the Amazo Virus Wonder Woman with this set. That one fits in much better scale wise. I may swap Aquaman's head with the single one, but the flesh tone is a little off. Everything else alright. If I could do my own recommendation is to look for the individual figures on eBay or wait until it's price comes done. Great Review.
+tringrad50 Absolutly agree about swapping heads. I recorded a video that's soon to go up about just that. It also fixes the problem of the small head on the Mattel New 52 Aquaman. I agree about looking on eBay. I'll likely pick up a few more Superman figures just to take advantage of the headsculpt. Thanks for watching. :-)
Baz. I know how to pronounce Baz. I didn’t then. I had never heard it and wasn’t sure if it was pronounced in a culturally different tongue because of his middle eastern heritage.
Great review! I really like the Superman look but I mostly have The New 52 7" scale or DCUC or Arkham figures. These or icons are just too small scale to me.
The Trinity Batman & Superman 52 look way better . this is a very good review thank you for posting this video . the rest of the rebirth figures look alright wonder woman is beautiful .
I loved the Flash and Cyborg so much that I got 2 flashes and 3 cyborgs. I put Cyborg in a Titans display and a Justice League display and Flash in a JL display. The extras are for play
I can totally relate. Sometimes I’ll get more than one of a figure for multiple displays. Usually not at once though but over time. Collecting here in Canada is through-the-nose-expensive.
+Derrick Johnson That’s a great multipack for sure. I ended up swapping out the shinny Batman in the display in favour of a regular one but I kept the rest vanilla. :-)
I definitely love this set. Aquaman and superman is my favorite out the entire Alex Ross 6 figure set. The only thing I don't like is the sculpt and paint applications to the flash. I was wondering did you have a Instagram or fb so I can show you my dc collection.
Por que tus figuras tienen un color distinto a las del pack original en especial el batman y ciborg ya que yo tengo el pack y mi batman y ciborg son de las partes negras y los tuyos medio azules
Not a big fan of the rebirth suit either. Don't care for the head sculpt on the figure, especially when you see the upcoming dc essentials batman and how spot on it is, plus I prefer the blue. I do wish his cape was more like this one though. I've already sold off this set so my old icons batman is going to have to be the go to until essentials start dropping. I think I may be the only collector out there that actually loves that icons batman, it's too small but the sculpt is amazing imo.
Cristino Fuentes These all aren’t. I don’t recall saying that. Only Wonder Woman really is because she is really big. However, this video is really old so a time stamp for me would make it easier to reply. Maybe you could fudge Superman in but they aren’t quite the same scale.
It's a shame to not get Simon or Jessica. I don't like Hal as much as you do, he's not my favorite Lantern, but I do like him. Still, Simon or Jessica would be more interesting.
I agree, Hal doesn’t make sense in the Rebirth box set. It’s just a sign that this was intended to be the cancelled New52 JL set. Simon and Jessica should have gotten a two pack at the very least.
xHaloxReviewerx117x Good question. I prefer the body of the Icons but like the size of the Mattel version more. I also like the Multiverse headsculpt better than the DC Icons one. Also, the DC Icons Superman’s paint flakes of inside the knee and elbow joints while the Multiverse is molded in blue plastic so it can’t peel. Hmmm. I’d still have to go with the Icons version.
Brad The DC Universe Geek thanks for the reply! I really want this set just for WW alone. I’m such a huge WW fan. But now I have to get it for supes as well it does look pretty great on your camera. I have yet to own him in his classic or rebirth look just in his black krypton suit. Excited to pick up a Superman for my display
hi Bradaa Brad.. this set is sure tempting.. the Big Banda Wonder woman would stand right next to Neca Superman and Batman i assume.. hmmm the Wonder woman is sure yummy 😋 if you get my drift.. after all we are adult and free to fantasize. Thumbs up review dear sir.
I'm not so sure it's an entirely different sculpt so much as a scanned in, enlarged and redone figure. That's something I've seen done before by Gentle Giant. You can also tell if you look closely that the shoulders have been sloppily filled where holes were.
Absolutely. It was definitely too small. I think, even though he still seems a bit scrawny, Hal looks better now and fits with the box set better than the previous release. Sure wish they would release the New 52 Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman in a Trinity Pack. That would be sweet!
There's really no point to buy this pack. None of the figs have accessories and most of them are the same as their original releases. Save some Money and just buy the original aquaman, original flash, the single carded Wonder Woman, the new deluxe cyborg and try and find green lantern. Hell don't buy the batman and superman on eBay Dc collectibles already announced the rebirth batman and superman are gonna get single releases in the fall and they'll probably have accessories.
+Alex Sinibaldi Not gonna lie. I was more than a little surprised to see DC Collectibles announced the Superman and Batman Rebirth single carded release in the fall. Sadly no they will have no extra accessories just the figures. I personally wish they released the New 52 box set as originally planned while giving us the Rebirth ones as single releases. Heck a Trinity Rebirth pack would have sufficed. Thanks for stopping by. :-)
Batman and aquaman have horrible head sculpts and wonder woman's face paint is insane.its annoying because this pack is so close to being spot on. It works great with some customization
Sammy Long At the time I had a brain fart and actually forgot his last name altogether and then tried to recover. The videos were really rough back then and I just left it in. Yes I know how to pronounce his name. Baz as in spaz. It was just a thing that happened and to tell you the truth I had never said his name out loud before that.
+Ronald Simmons I haven't read it. Love the Green Lanterns but I can only afford one set of titles. Not sure who has the best rebirth book though. That's likely in the eye of the beholder.
Darn that New 52 7 pack Batman looked perfect. Wish they had released that set.
The head of Aquaman looks fine.
Hasbro should make a marvel legends avengers 7 packs like this too....
They will sell more seperated
I bought my first Icons figure thanks to this video. Now I want them all!
I'm ok with Wonder Woman's scale. I think that as an amazon, she is supposed to be taller.

think ill be making minor adjustments to my rebirth superman and batman figure.
Thank you for sharing this great review.
I wish they'd have Cyborg with the really shiny metallic plastic like the old super powers line. Cyborg never seems right without it.
I prefer the Rebirth Batman costume over any version that has been seen since the Neal Adams one.
+Marcos Kain I think my favourite interpretation/design of batman lay somewhere between the pouch belt Jim Lee version and the classic Neal Adams. Although the rebirth suit doesn't rank high on my list I can see why it may be just right for others. It's definitely a departation from anything we have seen. I'm glad you like it.
i got this for 50$ today on barnes and noble
+albert pohl That’s an absolute steal. Good job!
it was actually 40 cause they had another discount code but i know man im pretty excited

Brad & Margaret - Geek and Wife Chronicles I think he meant the DCC New 52 7 pack from 2011
Yes, that one. Thank you.
Actually I don't mind the height of wonder woman I can just say that amazons grow taller than regular women and men

Brad The DC Universe Geek can you sell me the Flash figure for around 20$
Out Of Place Comments did you ever get it....
Great review! I really like the Superman look but I mostly have The New 52 7" scale or DCUC or Arkham figures. These or icons are just too small scale to me.
The Trinity Batman & Superman 52 look way better . this is a very good review thank you for posting this video . the rest of the rebirth figures look alright wonder woman is beautiful .

Brad The DC Universe Geek oh wow. I didn't know it was that expensive in Canada
Yeah you've really got to be committed to a line here to keep buying them.
Really enjoyed the video. Just got my Alex Ross justice league 6 pack through the mail today.
+Derrick Johnson That’s a great multipack for sure. I ended up swapping out the shinny Batman in the display in favour of a regular one but I kept the rest vanilla. :-)
I definitely love this set. Aquaman and superman is my favorite out the entire Alex Ross 6 figure set. The only thing I don't like is the sculpt and paint applications to the flash. I was wondering did you have a Instagram or fb so I can show you my dc collection.
I have a huge problem, there’s no accessories. Taking away aqua mans trident and wonder woman’s lasso is like taking captain America’s shield
Por que tus figuras tienen un color distinto a las del pack original en especial el batman y ciborg ya que yo tengo el pack y mi batman y ciborg son de las partes negras y los tuyos medio azules
It’s $54.99 on Amazon prime right now

So would you say these r compatible w dc universe/signature/multiverse figures?
Cristino Fuentes These all aren’t. I don’t recall saying that. Only Wonder Woman really is because she is really big. However, this video is really old so a time stamp for me would make it easier to reply. Maybe you could fudge Superman in but they aren’t quite the same scale.

Which rebirth Superman would you choose this one from icons 7 pack or the dc multiverse version?
xHaloxReviewerx117x Good question. I prefer the body of the Icons but like the size of the Mattel version more. I also like the Multiverse headsculpt better than the DC Icons one.

Hiii! Sorry I know this comment is centuries late, but I would love to know how tall are they? Specially in comparison to McFarland figures
hi Bradaa Brad.. this set is sure tempting.. the Big Banda Wonder woman would stand right next to Neca Superman and Batman i assume.. hmmm the Wonder woman is sure yummy 😋 if you get my drift.. after all we are adult and free to fantasize.
Thumbs up review dear sir.
Why are batmans arms so short?
that's actually a different green lantern sculpt, you can tell its proportions are a tad bigger than the single release
I'm not so sure it's an entirely different sculpt so much as a scanned in, enlarged and redone figure. That's something I've seen done before by Gentle Giant. You can also tell if you look closely that the shoulders have been sloppily filled where holes were.
Jay C has confirmed they scaled it up because of complaints that they were too small compared to marvel legends
Absolutely. It was definitely too small. I think, even though he still seems a bit scrawny, Hal looks better now and fits with the box set better than the previous release. Sure wish they would release the New 52 Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman in a Trinity Pack. That would be sweet!
agreed, those costumes were underated. but at least we have the greg cappulo figures
The blue Batman’s abs are on the wrong way
How tall is aquaman
I would prefer a new 54 pack
Where you buy this pack?
i love this channel
+Gabriel Ferreira Thank you I appreciate that! :-)
Can I buy the flash single or do I have to buy this set to get this specific figure
Buy the set to get this specific figure probably
There's really no point to buy this pack. None of the figs have accessories and most of them are the same as their original releases. Save some
Money and just buy the original aquaman, original flash, the single carded Wonder Woman, the new deluxe cyborg and try and find green lantern.

Heck a Trinity Rebirth pack would have sufficed. Thanks for stopping by. :-)
Brad & Margaret - Geek and Wife Chronicles do you like the icons line more or the dc comics multiverse line more?
Batman and aquaman have horrible head sculpts and wonder woman's face paint is insane.its annoying because this pack is so close to being spot on. It works great with some customization
I was really lucky and I got it for $77. I was very very lucky to get it that cheap
How can you not pronounce Simon baz last name it's easy to say.
Sammy Long At the time I had a brain fart and actually forgot his last name altogether and then tried to recover. The videos were really rough back then and I just left it in. Yes I know how to pronounce his name. Baz as in spaz. It was just a thing that happened and to tell you the truth I had never said his name out loud before that.
Custom ?
did they put the icons in 6 inch scale???
+Ronald Simmons They did. They are a bit on the smaller side of what is commonly held as 6" scale. I still think they're great. :-)
yea, great review btw, it think ill try to get the supes out of this set.
They made wws figure really tal
The New 52 designs are _so_ awful. The worst until the _Injustice_ designs.
I would not buy this superman I don't like his new school costume the old school is way better
Superman is a china guy or korean guy? what the hell happened?
Hal Jordan has the best rebirth book btw
+Ronald Simmons I haven't read it. Love the Green Lanterns but I can only afford one set of titles. Not sure who has the best rebirth book though. That's likely in the eye of the beholder.
I read them all.
