I wasn't really paying attention to DC in the 90s, but I heard that Grant Morrison had an interesting run with JLA then.<br /><br />I'm really impressed with the Stingers too. I think this is a long time coming for a lot of fans. Glad you understand the importance of my hat statement. lol ; )<br /><br />I'm doing well, it is always nice to hear from you. I know you are busy. I hope all is well.

Most collectors want him to complete the 90's Grant Morrison JLA run.<br /><br />I'm REALLY impressed by those Stingers. Those dolls are really nice. The clothing is very well done. What a nice line to collect. I loved your line about hats. "I think a good hat can either make or break your day." So. True.<br /><br />Hope you're doing good my friend.

I guess they went with what they could. lol I don't know anymore. Sometimes I wish I was making the decisions with that line. lol<br /><br />And I am so glad you feel the same way about Rapture! She was just total trouble! lol Their real names are interesting though, aren't they?Michael Lynn P.https://www.blogger.com/profile/03371185397200027726noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4132358890134520474.post-88164682009197007732013-07-22T17:35:56.130-05:002013-07-22T17:35:56.130-05:00I think they delayed Glimmer because they knew the...I think they delayed Glimmer because they knew they would need some more popular POP characters to drive sales. The 2014 sub might be pushing it to go through, and I think anyone but Glimmer would have been meh, if only because someone like Netossa is not as popular. Netossa was only in like two episodes, but for collectors, her figure came out at the end of the She-Ra line and it was super rare. So she was a big deal for some people, but she was not as recognizable as, say, Glimmer.<br /><br />I would prefer her hair be more pink, but I do like what was shown with other photos from the actual place. It is interesting, because she looks like the cartoon, and in the toon her hair was more pink, but the toy had more of a muted coloring. So it is like this version of Glimmer has a bit of the cartoon and toy going for her. <br /><br />And I don't know why they posted Aquaman with her. I guess he was a secret reveal too. Maybe they will have an extra head packed in with his updated hair style?

I can understand putting out Frosta before her, but Netossa? That didn't make sense to me. I didn't even remember Netossa from She-Ra but Glimmer's pink hair only stood out in my memory. <br /> I like the look of the figure, and I know you have a point with the whole MOTU classics collectors may not want a figure to be too "girly" thing, but actually I would have personally colored her a bit brighter.Maybe it is more colorful than it looks but it's just not showing up in that picture I dunno. Throw some sparkles on her! <br /> And why the hell is Aquaman with her? He would look better standing next to a Mermista. And furthermore, why is he the 90's style bearded hook handed Aquaman? They went back to the original short haired design in the new 52 comics and I much prefer it.Nick Moosenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4132358890134520474.post-6323838887183786552013-07-19T19:15:04.399-05:002013-07-19T19:15:04.399-05:00I like the look on Minx's face she is up to no...I like the look on Minx's face she is up to no good for sure lol.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05151310331721753861noreply@blogger.com
