DC Direct: Cyborg

And.....back to another statue. 

I went a little video happy there for a section.

I was peaking at the new stautes announced by DC Direct.  This one caught my eye.

YEAH!  I finally have a DC bust that I really, really want.  It's not Batman, Superman, Robin, or Wonder Woman.  It is not the Flash, Green Lantern, Green Arrow or Aquaman.  It is .... okay, you get the point.

It's Cyborg!

Points in Favor

• Loving the colors.  Great paint job.
• I actually like his face.  It has a "youthful" appearance to it.
• Just the right amount of detail.

Points Against

• We really have to work on his emblem.  Not a fan.

Recommendation:  Hot Buy!!!!  I'm grabbing this one.  I might even order it off of the new DC Direct website.  (Kudos to the new site.)

Invisible Mercedes - Booyah!

Something inherently geeky about all of this!

If you are one of the 6M who hasn't seen it....

If they only had made it affordable.

Avengers - 2012

I know that you can see this everywhere, but I am just too damned excited.   This is definitely one for the theaters.  This is what everyone has been waiting for!!!!!  Boooyah!

Gotham City Impostors

I bought "Justice League Doom", which deserves a short discussion at a later date, and I saw a trailer for this game.  As I had fallen behind the times in my geekiness, I had missed this one; however, that doesn't make it any less FUNNY!
Mixed reviews for the demo, but here's hoping to that they addressed the negative reviews.

Zimm's Two Cent

If it weren't sheer beauty of this piece, the price of it would have kept me from mentioning anything about it.  Over 2.5 Feet tall, Sideshow did not pull their punches.

Points in Favor

• Look at the details.  If you jump over to their gallery, you can see the scratch marks on the mask and sholder pads.
• Paint job is beautiful.
• Fabric costume is going to add some realism to the piece.
• Love the gloves.

Points Against

• Something about the face.  As hairy as Wolverine is, I think there should have been some scruff.
• The price.

Recommendation.  Neutral.  If I could afford it, I would most definitely get it, but as I can't, I shan't.  In other words, if you can cut back on your other collectibles for a year, go for this one.
