I just pulled the trigger and bought a Reverse Flash on Ebay a few minutes ago. I wasn't going to bother because of the lightning bolt, and I already have the con exclusive DCD version...but fuck it.

It's actually a sweet figure, more posable obviously than the DCD one.

Reading the DCnU is like trying to shit a brick. It's agonizing. While I'm one of the few people around here who thought there might be some actual merit in a relaunch, the execution has been just that, an execution.

I kind of like the accessory. I didn't at first but it looks good posed with him.
The face on that figure looks great too. Good buy. I think you'll be happy with it.

It was like 16 bucks before s+h. And I spend a lot of time on ebay looking for a lot of things I collect.

I just scored Hawk, Dove, Silver Flush and Sinestro at Target, though they weren't in the system. I was sooooo tempted to lie and say they were only $12 but I just couldn't do it.
Why doesn't Sinestro have the previously released SC battery? They used it before, including with the Mego-type re-issues, so it's not like they haven't used it before.

I got mine from Mike the other week. Haven't had time to post. I expected the grey to be a letdown from comments here, but man it really takes away from the figures. Don't understand why grey logistics are easier than white.

That was probably a mistake on the Retro-Action Sinestros. Remember they pulled it from the Sinestro Corps Scarecrow because they wanted to use a comic-accurate lantern ... not that the standard Mattel lantern is comic-accurate anyway.

Even the lantern that came with Scarecrow would have been good. I don't like the one they released with it.

Since Scarecrow is in my fodder box, I'm going to use that lantern.

Got mine from MikeS (thanks Mike!) this morning.
My Sinestro has the thigh piece on his left leg on backwards.
Grey Flush's lightning on his back was folded up inside the package so only one half stands up like it should. And overall...this is a shitty figure. The grey is just stupid and
Nekron's legs are so bent from the packaging that his toes touch. And the 'theft' of the scythe is a really crap move on Mattel's part.
Green Arrow is really nice for a look I don't care about. Red Arrow is...nice...being as it's almost a straight repaint of a figure I really liked the first time it was released. Would've been much happier getting a Speedy.
Hawk and Dove are solid enough.
Professor Zoom is the standout of the wave by a looooong way.

Haven't seen any pics, but does Sinestro still have the stubby forarms or did they give him the BL Abin Sure lower arms this time?
