He def. has the most fun going on. Batzarro is lame. Ra's is a cool character but isn't very flashy. So yeah, right now Ocean Master is the best of what's guaranteed.

Same here. Ra's turned out to be so lackluster in the end that Ocean Master is the one Im looking forward to most now.

Ocean Master Review

Just got Orin today and this is the figure i was excited to see by far and I must say I'm not disappointed.

He comes in the 2 typical DCIE boxes with good artwork on the inner box and good background info too. The main difference I see between the figure and the artwork is besides the glowing red eyes on the art, a much better belt on the figure than art and the figure is missing the leg fins like he has in the artwork (those would've been killer!)...other than that he looks great!

The newly sculpted bits are:
- gauntlets (love these!)
- head
- cape and connector clasps
- belt
- trident (could've benefitted from some additional sculpting details, but overall a good, new accessory)

The rest of him is the basic 'B' sized buck...

The paint apps are solid throughout my figure, though a little heavy (again) on the hands...looks like he's wearing lots of latex gloves at the same time. I do like the muted colors on him and I think it works well with the figure, as well as under the sea.

The logo on his chest is centered and has a solid paint job.

The joint articulation is a little loose as compared to the rest I've received and thankfully he doesn't fall over with that ginormous cape...must be a pain to swim with that thing in the ocean depths.

For those of you that have purchased 2, this is a great start to making him up to resemble the New 52 Orin...

Overall, he's a great figure to look at and I'm happy to add him to my collection.

Stay Minty-Fresh everybody!

Oops! Just realized I called him Orin and not Orm...oh well, thankfully I don't live too close to water!

Acid, have you figured out where you're going to put him?

I'm probably going to either put him on my shelf with the Black Lanterns, White Lanterns, Blue Lanterns, Star Sapphires, Orange Lanterns, Indigo Tribe Atom, Nightshadow Batman, Metal Men and Joseph Curry Aquaman (next to him) or my generic villains shelf where I put the black costume Black Manta. I have the blue rubber suit Black Manta that came in the two pack on my Legion of Doom shelf. So it's going to be Generic Villains or opposite Joe Curry. You? :aqgrin:

I placed him close to front and center of the baddies vs the goodies in the central battle face-off scene...that cape takes up a lot of space!
