I personally think that encouraging reuse with any action figure company is great. It means that the company can get another figure out and save money on sculpted details, so they can make more uniquely sculpted figures. I don't get why people frown on reuse, if a company never reused bodies, they would go bankrupt fast because they always have to make a new plastic injection mold for every figure. Those molds cost thousands of dollars to produce. That would be too much money for them to spend on every single figure, leading to the company's demise.
Yes and no Encouraging re use is ok, but it can also become lazy and then start reusing stuff that makes no sense and looks bad. Fine line here… They doing good as far as I’m concerned, but can easily become too much…
Love this figure. Also, first time getting this buck and is amazing. Not only the body is perfect (for in the middle muscle men) but everything moves so smoothly feels as if the joints have oil. ...and, for being a character that doesn´t care weapons at least he was given the energy effects. ...but could have had, and should have had, the flight stand. I agree that this Captain Atom´s costume is perfect as it is but the New 52´s isn´t bad either. Have you seen his original costume and the 90´s gold and red one?
dHunter... Do you know what hands or hands pegs are compatible with Captain Atom? I would like to use Waverider and/or Animal Man hands (if they mix and match) for a custom character that I am building. Any thoughts?

Hola From Michoacán Mexico !! Dr. Manhattan .great review dHunter !! And amazing figure comparison

Great review my brother Hunter badass Captain Atom figure man 💀🔥💪
Thank you
"Boom you're dead boom dead again boom boom boom" - captain atom to batman in batman the brave and the bold
Ha nice
@@dHuntersReviews bro I have only been recently getting into action figures and your content is the best
Thank you...very much...
Pretty cool figure DHunter. Reminds me off The Silver Surfer.
I can see that
I have the gold version dcuc, so glad McF did this one, awesome looking figure. looking forward to it.
Nice, did DCUC do both a silver and gold?
@@dHuntersReviews yeah, the silver one was harder to find, & this wave came out during KBs closing clearance sale, so got the gold version instead.
I was only getting the Batman & related figures back then.
imma fan and great review. Reminds me of captain planet
Me too!
Love this figure.

I don’t like that he’s so much smaller than Superman
Justice League Unlimited was my first experience,loved him on there💯💯
Nice
I wonder if there will be a GOLD chase variant. Like from the Kingdom Come story.
I doubt it, but that’d be very cool!
I like your videos
Thank you!
Looks great. The only Gold Label at our local Wal-mart is Beast Boy... on clearance though.
I don’t believe he’s been spotted in the US yet.
@@dHuntersReviews been having gold label beast boy in new orleans since like may
Talking about captain atom
Looks great just wish we got more hands and a better handle on that diaper they made it look weird
Yes!
It’s looks so great
Normal, traditional version.
@@dHuntersReviews but the only reason I won’t buy it is because of the size
He’s way too short
Just a tiny bit too short...
dHunter... Do you know what hands or hands pegs are compatible with Captain Atom? I would like to use Waverider and/or Animal Man hands (if they mix and match) for a custom character that I am building. Any thoughts?
Animal man hands will work
Same blue beetle body
@@dHuntersReviews Any flight type hands that will work? Waverider's flight hands look to be the same scale, but the peg holes look different.
Animal man has some flat flight type hands doesn’t he?
I remember when the first gold label was leaked and everyone was like it might mean deluxe
I remember when the exclusives weren’t even dubbed gold label
@@dHuntersReviews that’s what caused the confusion when gold label was leaked
not the best figure but I can see the classic Captain Atom represented well in that figure.
Agreed, not a bad figure either
im extremly tired of this body buck ive never liked it but this figure does look really cool so ill pick one up
I don’t mind it besides the abs. I think we’ll see a lot more of it…
The diaper ruins a lot of figures but damn this is the worst offender in my opinion.
I wouldn’t say it ruins the figure, but it’s an eyesore for sure…
Walmart has canceled 6 pick ups for this on me ….they can burn
Lame
I got mine from cmdstore
Diaper.
It’s a bit much
