Off topic but, Hulk will not be in FF. No word on Wolverine.

i've been staring at the scults for awhile now.

and i'm trying to place the joker's pose.
looks like something out of killing joke.

but does it look to anyone else like he's tipping an imaginary hat?
guess i'll have to cut the hat off one of my legacy jokers and glue it on there.

Excelent.

And the scupt for HT Flash might have been Wally (not that the difference is all that huge), but the dial certainly wasn't. He was far too slow (forget comparing him to U Flash, he was slower than Quicksilver), and had Outwit. Wally is all about Perplex (increasing and decreasing speed), whereas Barry was more the "clever plan" type. I'm not saying Wally doesn't Outwit people, but he doesn't deserve the POWER of Outwit any more than, say, Superman, Green Arrow, any of the Green Lanterns, etc. Most major superheroes use clever plans on a fairly regular basis, but Outwit as a click power belongs only on those who make a habit of cleverly overcoming their enemies on the strength of their mind alone.

Blackfire is seriously old school, dating back to the original "New Teen Titans" series. She and her sister are bitter rivals (she also appeared in the cartoon with a MUCH cooler look).

18-20. 25 would be overpowered.

I'm just saying, if they said that was Barry Allen, there would be no complaints, the dial would work perfectly for him. It only breaks down if you go calling him Wally West, just like how nobody would complain if the Batgirl U was meant to represent Huntress in that costume.

Either way, there hasn't been a CORRECT representation of Wally West as Flash, so just like Superman it needed doing.

Also, people often accuse me of "choosing favorites", but if you do the math, I've apparently got a LOT of "favorites". I just like figures to be accurate. I've championed numerous figures and teams over the years, because I truly do like dozens of different characters and teams, and want them all to be represented accurately. It's not personal.

That's just ridiculous. You need to read more Flash. Barry was fast, but not as fast as Wally (post-Crisis at least, all sorts of wierd stuff went on in the Golden Age that simply cannot be represented in Clix form).

Ummm...Wally has never been as fast as Barry. That's been Flash canon since Wally took the mantle. Even after Wally learned about the speed force and everything. Wally has a wall he can hit. Barry never did.

Barry was faster than both jay and Wally. He was living tachyons. Wally is still flesh and blood. Barry could vibrate through objects without them exploding. Wally can't. Barry could travel through time. Wally can't.

Not to say Wally isn't a great hero. He is. But Barry was faster, no way around it.

When I first saw this post and the pictures, I was initially a bit miffed when I saw the Batman. Here he is the same sculpt as the Wizard/Toyfare subscription exclusive figure that was being advertised as a figure that could ONLY be gotten with through Wizard. Not cool to then have him in the Icons set too. BUT, then when I saw all the other awesome clix and their sculpts, I was too excited to stay mad 4 long. I can't wait for Icons.

Alex - surely you must be joking about Wally not being faster than Barry! Do you collect/read Flash #1 to #222?

we need to see big blues new stats! finally a new playable supes for under 265

you dont mess with the s!

The Batman figure that looks like the Wizard Exclusive, is a starter only figure, and is supposed to have a different dial.

The R/E/V will be the FCBD figure.

I was going to ask the same thing....

That mental block has been gone for many many moons kemosabe. Wally has broken the speed of light and left Barry in his dust.

I am not a DC fan, but I gotta like this "back to tradition" set. I wish Marvel would do more of that. The sculpts look great! Mr Mucha, these sculpts do look familiar.

Black Cat?

I'm sorry, Moondragon and white queen both have way more junk in the trunk than Black Cat...

...not that I'm paying attention either.

Are you kidding? Check out the plump toned cheeks on Whirlwind!

Ummm...forget I said that. (But seriously, they gave him some serious junk in the trunk; I guess that was the trade off for a guy with SAW BLADES STRAPPED TO HIS ARMS not having BCF).

P.S....Wally's faster.

You are behind the times on this statement......Wally is WAY Faster than Barry....


Mr. Savage

Not true. Wally has outrun INSTANTANIOUS before (in The Human Race I believe). That's impossible. Going faster would be even less possible. He can break the lightspeed barrier and return, and can travel through time at will if necessary. They even had one scene in which he was able to duplicate Barry's suicidal trick against the Anti-Monitor, and survive the experience. The only problem is that he was TOO fast, and lacked Barry's precise control, so his efforts backfireed, but not for lack of speed.

And again, Barry existed in the Golden Age, so he could do really weird stuff that didn't make a lot of sense. Like how with Kara Zor-El they couldn't give her 10 damage to represent the fact that she could move the planet out of orbit if she wanted to, all Golden Age characters must be looked at with a grain of salt. As far as people in the post-Crisis DCU are concerned, Barry was fast, and a Vet Barry would be faster than an R Wally, and possibly even E Wally (if that version represented a ~1990 version), but a post issue 125-150-ish Wally would be faster.

In order: 1. Was, not IS. 2. Wally's become pure Speedforce at times, and returned. 3. Wally can pass through objects without exploding them now, before he couldn't do it due to lack of CONTROL over his own speed, not due to lack of speed. Bart can also run through walls, and is considerably slower than Wally. 4. Wally can indeed travel through time. (as shown in the Cobalt Blue arc).

I know a lot about Wally because a few months ago I read through every issue of Flash vol 3 over a few weeks.

I just did the same with Robin, so I'm a treasure trove of Robin info too.

I totally agree. . . no, wait, reverse that. Barry was a hero, no question, but he wasn't faster.

Haha, suckers. $35 for a non-ginourmous figure, yeah right.
