What's Your Obsession

For all the complaints the Dynamics line gets about being overly elaborate busts, I think they’ve (mostly) got a great look to them and I’m glad to see the line continue. DC Direct is knocking out a Sinestro statue next April. It’ll be about 12″ tall and come with the unfortunately high MSRP of $195. [...]

Ah, who could forget that goofy villain from Blackest Night, Larfleeze? He didn’t get much character development or anything, but I thought he was pretty fun. DC Direct has done an excellent job bringing out his personality and his looks. He’s just under 6″ tall, slated to be out in late April 2011, and his [...]

This could be summed up as the Amazonian and enemies wave, since it’s Wonder Woman, Donna Troy, and Cheetah. Check under the cut for a picture, each comes in at about 5 inches.

I’m torn on the latest statue in the DC Direct Cover Girls of DC line, armored Wonder Woman. On one hand, she’s an absolutely gorgeous statue. I saw her in person at SDCC and she looks absolutely badass, it’s a depiction of Wonder Woman you rarely see, and the armour/paint are top notch. On the [...]

Here’s some more details for the DC Direct Women of DC series 3 Harley Quinn bust, designed by Amanda Conner. Unfortunately, this one didn’t do it for me at SDCC, but perhaps they’ll tweak the face before April 2011. MSRP will be $60.

For such a notable character in the DC universe, there aren’t many Shazam statues out. DC Direct seems to want to change that up with their upcoming animated feature, Superman/Shazam, The Return of Black Adam. Although it’ll be disappointing if they don’t put out a companion Black Adam piece! In scale with the rest of [...]

I’ve waffled on the DC Direct Ame-Comi line before. Sometimes they’ll have crap, sometimes they’ll have surprisingly strong entries, it’s been very hit or miss. But these repaints are getting old and are obviously a way to make more money from their sculpts. These come in at $60 MSRP and you can see images under [...]

If you’re not familiar with this, it was a graphic novel (back when Loeb was decent) and is being made into a movie. As has happened with every other animated movie, DC Direct is making a maquette of it, in this case, Supergirl. She comes in at 11.25 inches high with a MSRP of $100.

One of DC Direct‘s most popular lines, they just announced a new VS statue, Superman vs Brainiac. I’m kicking myself for not picking up Superman vs Darkseid for cheap, since the value has skyrocketed, ugh. This comes in at just under 17 inches tall and 8 inches wide with a MSRP of $250.

I can see why DC Direct would make this, although I would’ve went with another female character from the series first, simply because of the upcoming Star Sapphire Amanda Conner Women of DC bust. On sale in March of 2011 with a MSRP of $70.
