I’ve been hoping to see the toy dept manager at the Walmart I stop in every M-F morning on the way to the office to ask if I can have the top part of the SP display. Well today I finally spotted him but when I got closer to him, he was having a rather loud conversation (while stocking shelves) with another employee and they were both bitching about their jobs. He was in a terrible mood so I avoided him like the plague.

For being The Fastest Man Alive, ol' Barry here sure took his time making it to the East Coast. Found in Tampa not 30 minutes ago.
No sign of BWL, but they did (finally!) put out the shipper so plenty of Supes, Bats, GL, Darkseid and the vehicles. Flash was found on the pegs FWIW. |

yeah i'd been scoping out my walmart for him. i think i'll go to the toy store down the street and get an original one. if i am down the toy aisle with my son and he sees flash i'll probably get it for him, on occasion he says flash is his favorite super hero.
im still really pissed i traded mine for a busted incomplete gijoe tomahawk in 1993. that asshole threw out all his toys a few years later so there's no way i could get any of my original stuff from unfair trades back. also, it's irksome that the art doesnt match the figure for every one. make up your mind macfarlane. you want a modern looking card art? make the figure match that. you want classic super powers sculpts? make the art match that character's mold. this isnt rocket science.

I picked up Flash the other day,there was only 2 of them left.First time i'd ever seen him.I wonder if they made less of this wave,or its just that the stores are flooded with the first wave and didnt order Flash and Batman Who Laughs.

One of the things that strikes me about the modern art (especially with Flash) is that none of the newer artists have ever really been able to improve on the timeless, classic costume designs. Flash is basically the same as the 1956 Carmine Infantino design, just with a lot of extra lines added. It speaks either to how unimaginative the artists are, or just how perfect the original looks truly are.
Also, Jim Lee is legitimately a weak costume designer. |

pretty much could have stopped there.
this asshole ruined dc comics. sure, didio made some dumb decisions, because he had this moron in his ear bugging him to bring his wildstorm shit and hackfraud artist friends into dc comics. didio brought back barry and hal and im happy for that. jim lee brought us new 52, rob liefeld, and bob harras. wrong guy got fired/released/whatever. it should have been both of them. |
