Top 5 Best Looking DCUC Figures

Postby Truwe » Tue Jan 07, 2014 1:44 pm

Piggy backing on Tango X's "Worse" Thread, what is everyone's top 5 list? Sorry if this has been done before.

Here is mine:

5: Ares - Such as bad @$$ looking figure and just intimidating to look at
4: Copperhead - I love the scale work even though it is just an addition to the already made Aquaman body but love the headsculpt
3: Magdog - A lot of new parts sculpted got more and more rare as the line continue and this figure was a fresh breath for me.
2: Wave 20 Green Arrow - I really can't explain it bc I really don't like GA but I love this figure.
1: Wave 21 Batman (nu52) - Any figure that decently rendition of Batman's current costume is a huge plus for me and I love the new costume but that head sculpt is perfect for Bats imo (mean and stern).

That was a lot harder than I thought...

Wonder Woman
Plastic Man
Black Canary
Green Arrow
Black Adam

There's a lot, this is just off the top of my head. Mr. Terrific probably ranks up there, too.

5) Metamorpho: an odd C&C choice for the premiere of this series, they just knocked him out of the park

4) Kilowog: the big green pig done beautifully

3) Plastic Man: awesome in every way

2) Joker: enough said

1) Brainiac (DCSH): hands down one of the best and most accurate figures Mattel made

Oh yeah, almost forgot Starro!

I know he's technically not part of the main DCUC line, but he is a member of the family and I was stoked to get him

Without looking at any other posts, and realistically taking out easy easy give me selections like say . . . Superman or Batman.

The following aren't in exact order.

5. Kobra: This guy, he really is impressive all things considered. The detail, the paint, etc. He looks so much cooler than he really warrants.
4. Blue Beetle (modern) Talk about a lot of love this fairly obscure modern character got. I think he even moves differently from most figures, if I recall. Like he may have his on unique buck. He is ok, but talk about a waste of resources for the level of popularity of the character (and I like modern Teen Titans).
3. Hawkman (and Hawkwoman probably). I guess you gotta give a shout out for the winged characters. Considering Mattel only did it for two characters, they did a good job. Note, this is basically giving an award for Mattel not being ENTIRELY cheap.
2. Chemo. I am giving it to him solely because he is soooooo far off the charts of what they ever did or have done it's almost unthinkable that they ever made him.
1. Ares, the dude is AWESOME. It doesn't even matter if you are a DC Comics fan, he looks cool! He is big, detailed, nasty, and as far as I know has parts never reused and he isn't a C&C!!!!!! Just an example of the frills they used to give us and how they gave up.

Honorable mentions:1
1) Kiliwog, cause he is awesome.
2) Aquaman, see above.
3) Gentlemen Ghost, cause he is different.
4) Grodd (and Mallah sort of)
5) Cyborg, I am no expert but it looks like a lot of effort went into him.
