    Default JLU Action Figures!

    Booster Gold
    Prince Gavyn
    Waverider
    Aztek
    Hawk & Dove
    Wildcat
    Atom Smasher
    Sinestro
    Elongated Man
    Ultra-Humanite
    Bizarro #1
    Black Canary
    Metamorpho.
    Orion
    Amazo
    Vixen
    Mirror Master
    Copperhead
    Dr. Light
    The Justice Lords
    Kilowog and Tomar-Re
    Martian Manhunter in invisible and non-human forms

    I just love this line. Sure, we get the usual Superman and Batman variants, but we also get a ton of characters that you'd never expect to see. The figures are simple and cheap, and they look almost exactly like their cartoon counterparts.

    So what other JLU characters would you like to see in action figure form? I'm hoping for Deadshot and King Faraday.

    After Aztek, I don't think it's too far out of left field to hope for Gypsy... and Mr. Terrific!

    Him and Waverider, yeah. You just can't get more unlikely than those two.

    I'd like a Question and Huntress to go with my Green Arrow and Black Canary. And Solomon Grundy.

    Does anyone else have trouble with all of these figures standing up properly?

    I have a Superman with one leg shorter than the other that won't stand. Wonder Woman tips over backwards because her hairs too heavy, and Green Arrow has the same problem with his backpack. I just prop them against their respective TPB's on my bookself, alls good until the cat goes investigating.

    A couple of 'em. I had to bend the legs on Atom before he could stand up without toppling over, and a few of the others have balance problems thanks to uneven legs or heavy accessories. But most of them stand fairly well.

    Yes.

    In fact, I dare say that outside the Big 7, most JLU figures have legs that barely move. The Big 7 (well......maybe not Hawkgirl now that I think of it) have bendable legs - everyone else pretty much does not.

    I tried to find some pix to share, but the more obscure characters didn't show up, right away.

    Oh well. Here's a link to the Google image search results.
    Please pardon any aggressive auto-correct feature typos.

    I saw this on the ToonZone JLU board, so I thought I'd resurrect this thread.

    Nifty, eh?

    Although I'm a bit miffed I didn't see this until after I had repainted a John Stewart to go with the new Justice Lords figures.

    Care to post a pic? I'd like to see him.

    And like I said over at YABS, I'm a bit miffed too, since they've shown a Kyle Rayner figure now that I'm just about done with my Kyle custom.

    There's gonna be a Kyle figure? Sweet!

    I was always miffed that I had to settle for the animated JLA, and not the comic version. This is cool :D.

    Oh, and sorry, Australian here :D. Our Targets and K-marts carry hardly any JL and JLU toys, and our Big-W (the Aussie version of Wal-Mart) is also pretty lame. There's always eBay, which I might have to resort to.

    And given that the Captain Marvel figure is one I'd dearly love but will probably never get -- that custom of yours Loren just *ruled* :D.

    Sure. Heck, here's everything I've done.

    But be warned I'm just as bad a painter as I am a photographer. And I haven't sanded any of 'em, yet.

    Holy cool! Superman One Million AND Superman Prime (though his "s" symbol is off)? Now those are ones I'm definately going to get!
