It's just...so ****ing stupid how they ran this line into the ground. As much as I like DCC, these figures were $25 figures at a $50 price tag, and they screwed themselves hard by putting themselves in direct competition with MAFEX, SHF, and, even, to a degree, Mezco, and, frankly, they didn't stand a chance. You know how many people would've been giddy as ****, had they went old school with it? I would have. Imagine what a different reception people would've had to Keaton, Jack, Reeve, and Stamp as their inaugural wave? Hell, I know they aren't film, but I'd still love someone to do Shipp's Flash justice in some capacity. They have this seemingly unlimited playground at their disposal, and yet, they gravitate towards the most mediocre **** possible. I've defended Eisenberg's Luthor in the past, but I wouldn't pay $10 for that ***** ass chump, let alone $25, LET ALONE $50! So, it's no wonder the interest in that led to its cancellation.
I get it, I do. People would like Zod, Faora, and Nam-Ek, and they looked like cool figures, but, honestly? I feel like Zod, Ursa, and Non would've been way cooler. Parachute pants and all. I don't know. There's such a thing as oversaturation. I get that Neca's done Keaton and Reeve, technically, but I think people would still love to see that history represented. ****. I'd love to see them go back to Kirk Alyn and George Reeves. Make some black and white variants to go with the color versions. Give people an extensive, high quality '66 line, and just keep moving forward.
