Final Destination?
I want to order the 13" Robin Deluxe figure because they have it for $50, but I don't know if they're good or not.
Don't think I've heard of them. If I use an online retailer, it's usually http://www.alteregocomics.com/, though I normally just use eBay, especially for DC Direct things since the markups can get crazy on regular store sites.
If you go the eBay route, buy from eBenji. He's got practically everything, and at decent prices. Plus he's on the East coast which is a plus.

see, $60 is an okay price, but then i gotta spend $8 on shipping so why not just pay the extra dollar and pick it up at a shop
During my comic book shopping today I picked up the DC Armory line. They were only $12.50 each and I got 15 percent off on top of that. I was just glad they actually made a figure of Aquaman in his Our Worlds at War Armor. I'm a lecherous individual so I posed Flamebird (Supergirl) and Nightwing (Power Girl) in a nice hugging pose.
Though the show officially starts later today, there are plenty of pictures of some of the new items coming out in the near future.
Not much yet from DC Direct, but what's been shown looks damn good.
Joker 1:2 Scale Bust
Wonder Woman 'Museum Quality Statue'
Batman and Superman being the first two to be released. Let's face it, they weren't that great. This one looks like a winner, though I don't care for the blue highlights used for the hair. Maybe there's just too many. I dunno.

I just got my Zombie Spider-Man and Mary Jane Statue today and I will say it is quite awesome.
Definetly going to be sitting in the Box till I find a good enough spot to put it.
Just came back from the toy fair. I went to the Diamond booth, and they didn't really have a lot of new stuff, surprisingly. A nice Batman bust, and some Justice League figures that are coming out sometime soon, but that was about it. I also went to the Dark Horse and McFarlane booths; Dark Horse has some really nice statues coming out soon, including some Spirit statues and a line of "classic" DC stuff that I'll try to put some pictures up of (I grabbed their catalogue and will try to find someone with a scanner ). The McFarlane booth let me take pictures, and I got one of a Spawn statue (but, uh, who really likes Spawn?) and some of the Halo stuff they're putting out.
There was another booth that had some cool miscellanious comic book stuff, including some nice Ninja Turtles figures, but they wouldn't let me in because I had an exhibitor's pass. Lame.
Unfortunately, there only seems to be one new 13" figure in the bunch, in the form of a deluxe package. Supposedly the Green Lantern Corps set includes one male figure, dressed as a GL, featuring four swappable heads. Good chance to get a Hal Jordan figure without having to spend a couple hundred on the original release. He won't have his current uniform (featuring green shoulders) but what the hell.
Also new shots of Green Arrow (with a fixed feather in has cap), Bizarro (much better looking), Joker (hate the teeth, but the rest is great), and Harley Quinn.
New entry to the JLofA Trophy room line..
and Secret Files Series 3 Batman Rogues Gallery 2 (phew)
I think I'd probably end up wearing that Superman cape and belt to work everyday if I bought it. Seeing that new Secret Files Batman Rogues line makes me RE-curse myself for never buying the Black Mask figure from I think series 1. Does anyone know anywhere still selling that thing?

The Super Hero Squad stuff is really nice - especially since it's the same scale as the Starwars Galactic Heroes and the Transformers line. There's an Indiana Jones line coming out too. My son has a bunch of the SW and Spidey ones. The (movie based) Doc Oc and Sandman ones are especially cool.
I have seen that Flame On Human Torch and Silver Surfer going for like 50 bucks though. 10 bucks I could do, because I really want that Silver Surfer! I have the Marvel Mini-mates Silver Surfer, but the paint is coming off of his head.
I saw it at my comic book store and immediately put it in my box. One month later after I got enough cash it was mine. One of the best things I have ever bought at a comic book store hands down. (still waiting for my Marvel Zombies Lunch Box)

I'm not a collector or anything, but I saw these in a store and they honestly made me laugh. I was half thinking about buying this set, but I don't particularly want the silver surfer.

Maybe I was too exhausted or something, but I swear I saw that set for 79.99 somewhere. Maybe someone screwed up their decimal place.
First up, a remake of an item that has eluded my grasp for a long time...The Samaritan, this time for Hellboy II: The Golden Army. Visually, the gun is more or less the same as the original, but, this time around she's made of metal and wood, unlike the original which was all polystone.
Last but not least, at a whopping $700, the Iron Man Life Size bust. Light up eyes folks..light up eyes.
Finally some cool DC stuff I can get for my godson. (and maybe me...)
Look how badass Hawkman is. He's all like.."yeah, you'll snuggle with me, or I'll bash your face in with a mace. "
There's also a new line of "collect them all" figures coming out called "DC Universe - Infinite Heroes." They're smaller scale, more akin to the old Super Powers figures. Supergirl needs a nose job.

which is what i'll probably end up doing
unless my shops overcharge on them
They'll probably charge $69.99 for it. I'd wait and see what you can find on eBay. Unless you have to get it on the day it comes out.
PSN: OrneryRooster
well yeah, they'd charge the $70 MSRP, when that one site is $69 after shipping.
I'll probably wait until my tax return to get it
Toy Fair!

Marvel Legends Ult WWII Cap and Ult Nick Fury Two Pack
"Might Muggs"
Seriously though, sometimes I can find old discontinued stuff just sitting on the shelf at Suncoast for like 5 bucks. It is how I got Lobster Johnson.
Are those the same scale as DC Direct? Because that Two-Face looks good, and would look even more gooder next to my Joker and Scarecrow.
You can still find plenty on eBay for cheap.
All of those are from DC Direct.
PSN: OrneryRooster
they are really the perfect price for me
I can't really justify spending more than twenty bucks on something unless I'm going to be able to find some use for it
hence my overlarge collection of HeroClix
It's really going for that much on ebay? Because unless you mean something else it's $10 on Amazon right now.

I am loving that Two-Face.

Unfortunately Sideshow isn't at Toy Fair this year, but instead they're rolling out a lot of new items for order this week.
Now there have been some great that have gone up for sale...there's Gandalf, Indiana Jones (new license), and even Obi-Wan in his Clone Wars digs (finally)...
But...those aren't even the best of them..

There's also the new Dark Knight figures here.
Mattel is really taking Hasbro over its knee with these figures.

But I'll still get one.
And is the one with the white hair and glasses supposed to be Gordon?
