Post your hauls and purchaces here. Pics welcome.
Saw Legends Ravage. PPC Bombshock. PCC Huffer. Seaspray for the first time ever. Bought them all (TRU buy 1 get 1 50% off). Immidiately regretted buying so much (I was ehhh about Huffer and Bombshock) but after I opened them I was ecstatic. They're all fantastic figures.

Definately a matter of taste, here, but I will say a few things. Why are accessories so important? For most of the DC fids I have accessories would be superfluous. Batman could use a batarang, and Wonder WOman might benefit from having her lasso but otherwise . . . What's Superman supposed to have, kryptonite? And I love the character choices. Sure there have been a few repaints - at least two Batmans, for instance, but overall, the line has been a nice cross-section of the DC universe. We got a Pre-Crisis Supergirl, for crying out loud! I just wish there were a Robin in the line. And Kyle Rayner would be nice. And since they're some of the least expensive figures on the rack, I'm willing to overlook some flaws. It limits their posability in my opinion. Especially when they've got such limited articulation... but I will give them credit for the character choices... and then take that credit away for screwing them up with terrible design choices. Give us the question and then make him the wrong colors... without the trenchcoat... that makes sense.

What's wrong with them? They're good likenesses of the characters, decently posable for the size, sturdy. Now the Marvel line, there's some lousy figures. Half of those I own are floppy - the figures are hard to get stable, and could probably benefit from having fewer joints. The waists are especially bad - I can't get Spidey to stand straight to save his life. Add to that the excessive reuse of particular characters (how many Johnny Storm & Iron Man variants have they done?) and the higher price, and I know what line I'd rather go for. Their posability is pretty damn poor. And the sculpts aren't great either... the extensive use of soft plastic leads their sculpts to be not very detailed. Plus, they hate accessories. Between that and their poor articulation, their posability is stupidly limited. Plus, it's plagued by just terrible choices that kinda make me think they're just not trying like flat out wrong decoes and sculpts.

Given the quality of the DC Infinite Heroes figures... my money would've been on the TFs.

What are you talking about? Heroes is one of the best shows on the air right now. Right now the biggest question is if Hiro Nakamura will get back to his right time now that he doesn't have his powers any more, and will Peter take the formula to restore his powers. Heroes has been awful since season 2. Season 3's been terrible as well. Season 1 was incredibly solid, though. I consider it an accident, though, as the next two seasons have proved that the creators are completely unable to make a good show on purpose. But this is neither here nor there. Cyclonus looks amazing.

Cool pic. Still not seeing Shortround as Seaspray, though. Reeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaallllllllllly doesn't do it for me. Surprised you don't have Universe Blaster or Powerglide in there. You've got so many customs, but no room for the retail versions? Heh.

Not an action pose, but a kinda funny picture. ... okay, not really.

He looks better in person... but there really isn't much you can do. Shockwave's robot-to-robot conversion is amazing, but his robot to vehicle consists of little more than "lying down and putting gun on back," which makes fan modes tough. EDIT: Ooops, accidentally posted the same picture twice. My bad.

I thought that the entire point of the Classics Seeker mold was him NOT being a partsformer anymore... those legs are separated from the body.
