  • DC direct ...... GRRR

    I just bought justice league series 1 sinestro took him out and bent the elbow on his left arm and it fell off........ O F F off. lucky for me it was only 6 bucks. damn super glue then got all over the place


    then the new frontier hal jordan I bought has a frozen knee joint.

    My emerald shield figures foot is wanting to come out

    the reactivated superman they did lost a hand

    had to glue parallax's foot on in place dropped him and the cape broke off.

    what the hell kinda crap are the trying to pull, i honestly can't wait for Mattel to start doing green lantern figures

    Geesh buddy, sounds like a Greek Tragedy! That's quite a laundry list of figure problems. Is this normal for this company?

      you can always call them up and ask them for a replacement i think. or go to the store where you purchased it and ask them for a replacement. because they cant sell something that is broken...

      regarding GL figs in the DCSH Mattel line.. things are not looking bright, i think they almost have 40 plus figs in the lineup, but no GL. Its mostly about Supes and Bats...

        DC Direct Parallax has some wild feet and knees. Need to glue those suckers, or maybe I'll melt the joints together.

              i think i'll still stick with DCD until GL figs come out in Mattel

                As far as I know Mattel has only announced wave 1 and 2

                Also SuperLantern

                My Sinestros hand broke right off, My Parallax cape broke off, So far ES Hal is ok but I like never touch him.

                I hear you on the DCD Fig problems but you should know from fwoosh if a DCD joint wont move DO NOT TRY TO FORCE IT dump it in some boiling water to soften the plastic then the joint should move freely

                  well my probs in DCD was my JLA Kyle Rayner, his whole arm can easily be disconnected from the shoulders, also, my SBP has the same problem in his whole left leg..DCD really has problems when it comes to joints...

                  thats why sometimes, i prefer purchasing loose (but in good condition, and yes i prefer it loose than carded hehe) figs than the carded ones, coz it gives me a chance to inspect it. DCD GL wave 1 was disappointing because they were so puny, thats why they have leg joint problems and other stuff..

                    I haven't had a problem with any DC Direct figure.

                      Only DCD I've opened is a JLA John Stewert, the card was really a mess, he seems to be fine no problems with the joints. Hope this isn't a big problem with DCD as I have the GL series 1 unopened as well as a series 2 Sinestro with the hope of more soon. If I ever do open then I would hope they wouldn't fall apart.

                          Parallax's head broke off when he fell off my shelf - havent glued it yet

                          Salaaks left leg broke off the moment I try to move it (and I WAS being gentle, always am at first)

                          cheap shitty plastic from china.


                          Kilowag on the other hand could survive a tornado I think, he feels really solid.

                          Oh yeah, my Superman's hand busted off too (the return of Superman line I think)

                            My SuperPowers Supermans arm broke off when I was a kid, I still remember how upset It made me (poss a contributing factor to my dislike of Sups) I mean Its SUPERMAN how can his arm fall off?

                              That would have broken me as a child, I wouldn't be alive today.
