While I tend to prefer spending my money on statues, I have had a tendency to collect some toys from time-to-time, and this series looks fun, sleek, and "contemporary". As I am not as up-to-date on the toy lines as I should be, I will be doing some additional research into the "UNI-FORMZ" design and the designer/sculptor Monster 5.
For now, I thought that I would share a few pics, let you know that they are out there, and decide if a toy for you wanted a toy like statue for your collection.
This one is cataloged under the Statues & Busts sections of the Wizard Universe, however, it has some articulation points. I like the idea that it does have these points of articulation that would allow me to manipulate it into different poses. Usually, when I want something different from my statues, I have to move them around the room.
Tell me what you think. And then tell me anything that you have heard of or know of about UNI-FORMZ and/or Monster 5.
UPDATE: This is the first in an ongoing series of DC Direct Statues. If that is true, than it would be fun to have my own DC Universe made up of these characters. The decision would then be - do I just grab the $39.99 version or try to collect all three.

I'm not feeling it. It makes me think of a Bizarro Batman version of the Super Friends kid line of figures, but at a much higher price point.
