I remember seeing these earlier....I definately want the Supes/Luthor figs.

Thanks for the links.

These are big figures, like the Spider-Man & Friends figures, the Fisher Price Rescue Heroes, and Playskool's Jedi Force line. I don't think that makes them similar enough to the Galactic Heroes concept.


I found a lone DCSH Steel (chrome chest shield) at TRU the other day, a real shocker. The figure is nice, has the good articulation that this line enjoys, but I did feel that it could have used more detailing. It's too bad Mattel has choked the life out of this line yet again.

What are you getting at exactly when you say that JT? (Just curious really.)

Those are both awesome finds...and awesome figures to boot.

Yeah, I was happy to find 'em both. Had almost given up, but then my local Target coughed up something new for once. Haven't opend them up yet, but maybe tonight...

I've not seen Black Superman yet, but I'm going to pass if I do. If they'd bothered to actually make it accurate, I'd get it. But this is some weird hodgepodge, kind of like the stupid Kal El figure.

The black Superman figure is pretty cool, but not as good as the one DC Direct released a few years ago.
That one was just him in the black Kryptonian life suit with no cape.

Different suit from a different storyline.

Actually, unless I'm way off base here and the memory is not what it should be this figure is perfectly accurate to the one which appeared in the 'Emperor Joker' story.

I think it's supposed to combine both black suit versions and a little creativity because Mattel isn't allowed to do story-specific costumes. Only DC Direct can right now.
