DisThunder is undergoing an identity crisis! What scale collector is he??!?!?
More after the jump…
Okay, deep breaths here.
Six Inch figures has become very depressing for me. DCUC is dead (and no, not long live DCUC), Plan B toys has been gone for a long time, and other than maybe Turtles, there’s not many lines coming up to replace them. There’s Legends, back and doing some good stuff, but in between, there’s lots of old base bodies, for every Bucky, there’s Constrictor, or Klaw, or even Fantomex, that reminds you of the less glorious figures Hasbro has done.
A few years back, there were other six inch lines just about everywhere. Now, even an old-school favorite like Thundercats can’t hang past a single wave.
Read more and discuss it further on the forums:
No problem. Hope you have already found your answer to your dilemma 🙂
That is a great looking setup! Thanks for linking that.
it actually comes down to what do you prefer. The 4 inch ones are actually good for dioramas, and it has a lot of other toylines to interact with. But I just can’t stand the quality of those plastics.I’m afraid I might break a limb or two with the soft plastics that they are using. I too was tempted to go into the 4 inch lines, but I just can’t stand them. The 6 inch ones on the other hand is perfect for character shelf/cabinet displays. Not too big, not too small.

looks way better than the smaller 4 inch ones and the huge Hot Toys one. But if there’s one scale that i miss, it’s definitely the vintage 5 inch ones. Works well for both dioramas and displays.
