      I might pick up the Sinestro and Brainiac at some point. I have a super powers GL I found at a toy mall recently so that works for me. 👍

    I am just getting back into collecting Superpowers stuff. There is a lot of inconsistency for sure. Like the gate/stance. Some are very narrow while others maintain the 80's heroic stance that is wider.

      There is a lot of inconsistency for sure. I have liked the vehicles more than anything. I almost wish they would release the figure waves as focused collections (example a Green Lantern characters wave and so on).

      @@eterniastoys Holy smokes that would be incredible if they fleshed out each character's individual universe to flesh out the totality of the toy line. An entire Lantern Corp with all the enemies, An entire Bat fam and all the villians. Superman, etc. Including secondary characters. Bruce Wayne, Clark, Lois, Alfred, etc.

    Have you changed your mind with the recent announcements of upcoming figures like Braniac, Sinestro, and non-exclusive Black Manta? Makes me wonder if Reverse Flash will get a mainline release too, perhaps with red eyes?

      I haven’t. I really was into the line and I feel like they just blew all their good will with me (I am happy for fans that are still into the line though). I actually saw Brainiac’s ship at a GameStop today and just had no interest, unfortunately.

      @@eterniastoys I get it. I feel the same way with the Star Wars Micro Galaxy Squadron - they made it so difficult to put together major characters and their vehicles that it just took the fun out of collecting.

    Honestly, Mcfarlane boasted saying he wanted to make figures that where not in the original line. I can think of a lot of figures he could do but i wont hold my breath. Examples. Commisioner Gordon, Metallo, cyborg superman, Atrocitus, Lex Luthor, Clark Kent, Joker, The ventriloquist, Ras al Gul, Captain Cold, just to name a few.

    • @eterniastoys
      @eterniastoys  8 месяцев назад

      I would love to see some of those figures added to it and He may get there someday but from my point of view the line seems like an after thought. No balance of characters at all.

    I’d like to see them release them in a 2 hero 2 villain wave each time with a vehicle to match. If they need to do a repaint make sure it makes sense to that particular wave.

    • @eterniastoys

    I'm really put off by the collection being made up of too many repaints of the same sculpt, lack of variety and villains, lack of other female characters, and most of all: Lack of availability. My Walmart STILL only has Wonder Woman, Green Lantern and Nightwing; they still havent gotten any waves since.

    In regards to the lack of guns is Warner's fault. They ordered all guns or gun like weapons to be removed from their licensed products... This is why McFarlane released a weapons set for the multiverse line

    • @eterniastoys

      Crazy decision for sure. Some of the figures make absolutely no sense without a gun. Red Hood and Peacemaker immediately spring to mind.

    This is the exact reason I haven't gotten into these guys. They look cool, but I dont like having heroes without villians, and like you said, the characters they put out make no sense. Plus, like the 1966 line, these are very cheap, barely even articulated toy figures being sold at collectible figure prices. I might buy some of these vehicles and put them with the Spinmaster figures if I see them on sale, though.

    • @eterniastoys
      @eterniastoys  6 месяцев назад +1

    As someone with all the new ones including black manta and reverse flash - and - all of the OG set sans a couple vehicles : I disagree. Tracking them down is part of the fun - especially when you score one. Looking forward to the next waves :)

      I love them. Bought them for my 2 year old nephew and just got rid of any accessories. I like how theyre doing more obscure characters too. He will def be playing with booster gold/blue beetle when they come out. I love how cheap they are too, reminds me of the DCAU ones I had as a kid. His eyes lit up when he saw the flash (I think because he looks like elmo), but he loves them.
