The versions of Batman in the Futura do take up a larger amount of shelf space. I'll probably feel better when I see the price tag and size of the dang thing.

Funny thing about that Bat-Shelf -- and there is a Wonder-Shelf and a Super-Shelf further along to the left -- I have found the various DC figures I have accumulated work best when grouped by character/family, but the Marvel characters seem to work best when shuffled, so my various Captain America figures are spread along the length of the shelf, for instance.I know not why this is so!

Amusing how little the LOST IN SPACE robot is really changed by this design!

You've got 3 different levels of success in following the "Pop!" style- The first has the style (big head, little body, dot eyes), the second doesn't look altered at all, and the third just looks odd, giving it a "Chinese bootleg knock-off" feel.
Still, at under $10 a pop, I'm looking forward to adding them to the collection. I'm hoping they add the Green Hornet and Kato one day to go with Batman & Robin. I'd also love a classic Flash Gordon and Buck Rogers.

Here's an interesting way to demonstrate the articulation of the S.H. MonsterArts figures...
Use Stop-Motion Animation!
Godzilla 64
King Ghidorah
Kiryu (Mecha-Godzilla III)

JB (and others),
I would really love to see your Wonder Woman collections. She's always been my favorite superhero.
Thanks, Marc

Quite a few things arrived this week...
The S.H. MonsterArts Kiryu (Mecha-Godzilla 3), and the rather elusive Ultra-Act Ultraman Hayata.

And a look at the Master File Thunderbird 2 book:
I can't say that this was a "must buy" for Thunderbird 2 fans, but it was quite fun seeing the CGI TB2 gallery:
The text was in Japanese, but there were some interesting technical graphics of the vehicle itself:

So the latest "Bombshell" from DC has been announced. . . 
I'd challenge ANYONE to find the Black Canary in this piece! (And someone should tell the designer -- if these are supposed to be based on pinups of the Forties, well, a woman with a tattoo back then was… not a very nice lady.)
