True or False? Do the different
DCUC and DCD Scales Bother You?

Vault snagged an Arisia figure from DC Direct's Blackest Night line on Friday and our discussion turned into a big debate about scale and how DCD and DCUC should or shouldn't share shelf space. Vault's got a mini-review of Arisia on our forums, I've added a handful of "Usual Suspects" shots to his review so we can work out if DCD and DCUC have anything close to a compatible scale, and we've got the whole gang talking about the merits (or nasty side effects) of mixing the lines!

Truetorial: DCUC Legion –
The Buck Stops Here

Upfront, I should say this is an article about scale more than it is about wanting the Legion. I want the Legion, but I also think they're already somewhere in Mattel's game plan. So this article is going to jump ahead to how to do the Legion. Specifically, how tall to make them. My concern is born out of figures like Beast Boy, OYL Robin, and the Wonder Twins. Mattel's few forays into teenaged characters has been troubled at best.

Now, I know that scale can be a sensitive subject among toy collectors. Some of us don't seem to mind at all while others can be downright unwilling to buy a figure that is out-of-scale with the others. For the most part, I don't mind DC Classics handful of scale issues so far.

Darkseid is a Tall Order

This is ItsAllTrue.Net's first Truetorial feature. Truetorials will be op/ed columns that discuss a particular topic in-depth. This column was one of the first things we wanted to do here at ItsAllTrue, but the website has had other plans for us and we're happy to follow where it leads. But we've got some time now that the convention season is wrapping up and we thought it was time to give the Truetorial a spin. We're not ready to give it a regular day yet, but if we like it, you should be seeing them on a regular basis. Just think of them as a kinder, gentler companion piece to Tuesday's Mr. Rant.
