I heard a rumor that there was a Toyfare issue that showed previews of the upcoming Benes-based JLA action figures...does anyone have any pics they could post, or tell me what issue I might find them in? Thanks!

Haven't heard either, but I'd buy a Red Tornado figure and perhaps Dr. Impossible.

I dont know if you've seen it, but they have a very good Red Tornado figure in the Alex Ross Justice line.

That's cool. I'll have to look for that. Been enjoying the book.

Yea they have it for sale at Wizards site but $15 is a bit much for me.

This adapting figures directly from a specific artist and story-arc is kindah' hit and miss. I thought that the Identity Crisis ones didn't work out so well. And Tim Sale versions of the Bat characters, which look great in 2-D, look off somehow in 3-D. Same with the Hellboy figures done in Mignola style. Great idea, but not sure if they translate so well from the source material.

So, Benes (who I don't even like in 2-D) action figures doesn't excite me so much.

BTW, there will be action figures of the Superheroes with armor. I saw the Aquaman one (with the armor from OWaW). Superman supposedly will have a "Torquasm-Vo Armor". We'll see...

Those figures are uglier than the drawings they're based on. Ick.

I think there have been far uglier figure made. This is the first time I've ever been tempted to buy these toy's.

I guess you don't like the whole Torquasm-Vo/Rao stuff, do you?

I think it's a very nice way to see Superman having his own Krptonian traditions and disciplines.

We'll have to see if it's brought back to the comics, though. And in which way.
