Out of all of these, Atomica and Ollie look the best to me and I'd consider those but I wouldn't even have a place on my shelf for Atomica since I don't collect any of the New 52 stuff.

They are all not to bad - but I just can't stomach looking at Mr. Miracle and Shazam figures at all. Those two aren't my favorites.

Yeah Mr. Miracle looks terrible to me, too. Black Adam looks OK to me, though.

But THIS is something I'll be all over like white on rice in a glass of milk on a paper plate in a snowstorm!

But yeah, that 52 Miracle is awful

These are cool but the heads look really stylized and don't have that DC House Style look to them that I prefer. I'll probably get that Atom set and see how the Harley one comes out. Might get the Green Arrow, Deadman and Blue Beetle, too. They look pretty decent. Even the Black Adam looks good for a New 52 figure.

toynewsi.com wrote:DC Collectibles via USAToday has revealed a new line of 6" (Thats right we said 6") DC Comic based figures. The line is being called "DC Comics Icons," and many of the figures will be featured in their more classic costumes pre-New 52. Each figure will cost $24.95 and the first figure which will be of Batman is expected to hit in November 2015. Here is how the first three waves will break down:

Wave 1 (November/December)

• Deadman, with interchangeable hands and a "ghost aura" that fits on most figure's heads

• Green Arrow, the version from writer Mike Grell's The Longbow Hunter series with bow and arrow

• Batman, a pre-"New 52" iteration with Batarang and grapple gun

• Mister Miracle, the latest incarnation who comes with Miracle disks and a Mother Box

• The Flash, the Barry Allen from 1980s' Crisis on Infinite Earths with Speed Force treadmill

• Black Adam, the new version who comes with lightning hands

Wave 2 (December)

• Blue Beetle, the Jaime Reyes version with arm cannons and removable wings

• Lex Luthor, the Justice League member with clip-on energy blades

• Green Lantern, a pre-"New 52" Hal Jordan with power armor

Wave 3 (February 2016)

• Superman, the pre-"New 52" version with interchangeable hands and head, chain and robot helper Kalax

• Aquaman, with trident

• Harley Quinn, original version with hammer, rubber chicken, pop gun and pie

• The Atom set, featuring female version Atomica from the Crime Syndicate of America, midsize figure Ryan Choy and small figure Ray Palmer

These look really great thus far, but I do hope that they will have a waist twist and thigh swivels... and please no clear plastic joints.

Thanks for posting the entire article. For some reason my I-pad won't let me do that.

Poor Arthur looks like he needs a Baby Ruth.

Okay, a criticism: their face sculpts have no real character to them. DCUC had, at least, some variety to the heads and the sculpts---and certainly the expressions. Aquaman is a prime example here; the DCUC version is far stronger and more handsome than the sculpt shown above. I like Batman and the Flash a lot here.
