DC Universe Classics Wave 14 is a wave without variants, so that means one figure gets a solo review. I picked Hourman because he's a favorite of mine and because he has a ton of comic potential. He's a smart character, but he's still a brawler at heart. Plus, he only has powers for an hour. That’s kinda cool.
Before we get to DCUC15's Validus, we're going to jump into some DC Universe Classics Wave 14 reviews. Today, we'll take a look at a character from one of my favorite teams, the Metal Man's Gold, and a character from one of my least favorite teams, Infinity, Inc's Obsidian... er, I mean Todd Rice.
Our fifth DC Universe Classics Wave 15 Review focuses on the last two regular figures in the wave, Jemm, Son of Saturn & the New Teen Titan Raven. They're an odd pair, they've probably never met before today, but they do have one thing in common. They're both DCUCs that don't have double fists. How rare is that?
Our fourth DC Universe Classics Wave 15 Review focuses on Golden Pharaoh and Sinestro Corps Batman. These two are alike in that neither has a true spot in the DC Universe, but their translation into DC Classics is a tale of two toys. One a fantastic update and the other an odd addition.
Even though Halloween is past, that doesn’t mean we're down with our spooky figure reviews! I’ve got one more of Diamond Select’s Universal Monsters toys to look at. I’m ending on The Wolf Man, one of my favorite characters and a nice conclusion to the first wave of figures.
Our look at DC Universe Classics Wave 15 continues with not one, but two Starmen figures - the Golden Age Starman and his son and successor, Jack Knight. As a big fan of the Golden Age and its legacy characters, I was excited for both figures, but only one really met my expectations.
As we covered last week, Diamond Select Toys is jumping into the Universal Monsters franchise with the Creature from the Black Lagoon and The Mummy. I was excited to pick up the Mummy at my local comic book shop, but little did I realize that DST would get me to purchase two versions of his figure.
