I can almost forgive the extra height on the 3J body in this instance because Jim Lee tends to draw his characters as very statuesque. Just as long as it’s somewhat consistent. How tall is that Possessed Hush Superman figure?

About 1/4” shorter than the 3J body.

Infected Superman buck is actually a pretty decent height. He could be a hair taller but it’s not bad. The 3J body is just too tall no matter which way you cut it.

Yep. Love KC Batman. He’s about a 1000% upgrade from the old DCD KC Batman. Now all we need is about a dozen more KC figures to go with him.

Amazon is really starting to get on my bad side. Now that I know it’s not just a freak accident with me, but several reports I see now of delays and cancelling after shipping, I don’t feel comfortable going with them anymore….

Really I’m just incredibly irked that I have to go around constantly refreshing and checking retailers for a NON-EXCLUSIVE figure that I thought I had secured. Ugh

In my recent experience with Amazon and DC Multiverse figures, they eventually ship, but the states release dates are off by 2-4 weeks half the time.

I don't mind a delay here and there, but after the fourth email on both Catwoman and Freeze a week ago, I got fed up with getting those emails and just canceled them. They're not exclusives so I'm thinking after the 4/1 "release date" I can just order them wherever.

Broken record, but I’m gonna toot Todd’s horn again. Never had an order cancelled from his store. The longest I’ve had to wait for anything was the weapons packs. Two months for both. Only one order was delayed a bit. It was fulfilled in a couple of weeks. I’ve cancelled one order over artist proofs. No questions, no hassle. I understand full shipping from FedEx ain’t cheap, but the bundles and the discount codes often bring the price per figure down $3.00 to $4.00 dollars each. And they often come early.

My biggest problem is with FedEx itself. One of their mid Atlantic hubs seems to be a bit of a black hole. Kernersville NC. I had a package sit there for almost four days. Says “in transit”. It’s only about 275 miles from my house. Once it leaves Kernersville, I have it “out for delivery” the next day.

So yeah, Todd’s my go to for everything possible that’s not Gold Label.

The only issue I've ever had with Todd's store was that I once paid extra for Fex Ex (they come to my door) and they shipped it via cheaper USPS (goes to a PO Box, not to my door). Since I hadn't selected USPS, I felt a little cheated at the extra $10 or so I had paid, and they never fixed it.

But, that is 1 issue out of many many orders...overall I'd give them an A!

My personal Fed Ex black hole is Osseo Minnesota...whenever a package from BBTS goes there, it's never scanned as leaving Osseo so it just shows up when it shows up.

My Catwoman and Freeze have been delayed 4 times now by Amazon. First it was 3/3. Then 3/21. Followed by this coming Monday, but last night I received another email saying 4/14.

Ever since Amazon screwed me hard with my Figuarts SSJ4 Goku preorder, I don't assume anything I actually preorder from them is a sure thing.
