I'm not a fan of the character or the sculpt. Don't like the wannabe Silver Surfer look to him.

Liking Barda and Power Girl a whole bunch.

Big pass on Captain Posie. One of the worst costume redesigns in comicbook history.

(Tho, being mostly smooth, the figure would probably work for a conversion -- perhaps even to a PROPER Captain Atom costume!)

Captain Atom.... ah well. I loves the Charlton characters, and I'll have to get this one just to go with the other 2.
but for the first time, I smell a repaint...


bet there'll be glove lines on the sculpt. Dang.

There are always scribe lines for the painters. JB gave me great advice over and above using files and sandpaper. Take a hard, metal object like a common nail and use it to rub out the lines. It's perfect for getting into those hard to reach places.

Well, looks like I'll be getting my very first figurine with that Power Girl.

Brad, it all depends on which DC figures Eaglemoss comes out with after Power Girl.  Hate to say it, but none of the ones released so far have caught my interest.  ;)

Funny, I was at my LCS after a dentist appointment today, and noticed they still had the DC Superhero Collection Magazines with Superman and Wonder Woman.  Asked the clerk behind the counter if these were Eaglemoss figurines and I got a blank-stare & a shrug in return...

Most likely get all 3 of those.  Really like the Power Girl figure.
