The Figures of DC Comics.

Where there's a crime scene, there's John Constantine :



Added a green filter for a more Underworld effect, a la Legends of Tomorrow:

A pic of my display shelf, with a few colorful characters to liven it up a bit:

I spruced up my Kyle Rayner.

Harley and her "nemesis"...lol

these are the new Spin Masters 12" figures

With my latest Eaglemoss order for DW treasures, I topped off my basket with these two lovelies...

from the Batman Decades collection...

the original Bob Kane drawn Batman

and the 60's Carmine Infantino drawn Batman


I gotta get the 70's Neal Adams drawn Batman next...

Batman is cool. With all the extra quarantine time, I've gotten a few Batman trade paperbacks to read and they're awesome.

I found this cool skull throne online, and wanted to put it to good use, so...

Found this beauty today...

the McFarlane DC Multiverse Detective #1000 classic colors variant Batman!

...love it!

I got the whole lot of Funko movie Batman villains today!!  

Man, they're sweet...


from Batman and Batman Returns...

from Batman Forever...

from Batman and Robin...

...they're all amazing!

I found a new cape for my custom Ra’s al Ghul! This cloak comes from NECA’s movie Shredder. The problem is I only have one. Who should get custody of this cape? Should I repaint my cape based off this pattern (If only I had sufficient reference for  tiger stripes before!), or keep the expressionistic fire veins I ended up with?

JUST IN!!!  The Hot Toys Aquaman from his solo movie!!

...and he's simply STUNNING!!!

the armor is all nice and shiny!!

great Jason Momoa head sculpt and costume detailing

the base is amazing too, although they removed the "light up" element shown in the prototype


He's now a new favorite. Simply amazing!

That does look pretty cool SeaDevil, the only thing that could make that cooler would be a bunch of those abyss creatures surrounding him coming out of the table at different heights with their menacing claws

So this is my "nice" DC shelf now...

I made a Gotham Firefly!

Picked up The Spectre recently to help Johnnie C. out on a case:





Added the green filter again, because you know..The Spectre!  

Since I already had Johnnie C., Zatanna, and Swamp Thing in my collection, I decided to track down and complete the Justice League Dark team, based on my favorite versions of the characters :

Here's Johnnie C. celebrating the holidays with a few old friends, and a new backdrop!  

Where do you find tiny ashtrays and burning cigarettes? I'm sure those aren't all official DC accessories!
That's an awesome display.

Thanks squishy!  This was a back burner project that started with me searching Ebay for the cigarette and ashtray, and ended with getting the bar diorama from BBTS earlier this month, and the bar counter and green tumblers arriving from the UK two days before Christmas.

The burning cigarette is bundled with other items, and you can get it here: https://www.ebay.com/str/GPSLot/1-12-Accessory/_i.html?_storecat=22054112016&_sop=15&rt=nc (They also carry clothing items for Marvel Select and DC figures)

The bar counter and all of the items on it, minus the tumblers, came from here: https://www.ebay.com/str/beautifullyhandmade/Pub-Bar/_i.html?_storecat=1670745013&_sop=12&rt=nc

The green tumblers: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Dolls-House-Green-Tumblers-with-Fillagree-Miniature-Dining-Room-Bar-Accessory/383819825901?hash=item595d71c2ed:g:XEIAAOSwQJlfvmoz

The coolest thing about collecting figures in the 5.5-6 inch scale for me is that I can usually find whatever 1:12 scale accessory I'm looking for, sooner or later.

These were inspired by a Marvel/DC crossover story I read online: Wanda Maximoff meets John Constantine at a bar, to hire him to track down a stolen artifact.

Since DC Collectibles never released a Damien Darhk figure, I decided to make my own younger version. Picked up a MIP DC Movie Masters Alfred Pennyworth figure for $15, and a custom painted Johnny Storm head for $20 on Ebay, and attached it with Blu-Tack:


You can never go wrong with basic black!  

Ready to take on another well known warlock...

Inspired by one of my favorite Legends of Tomorrow scenes:
John Constantine: The game's on already, mate. You want a marmite crumpet?
Mick Rory: What did you call me?

After reading that the Black Lightning TV series is due to be cancelled after Season 4, I picked up this DC Multiverse figure for my collection. In my opinion, it's one of the best looking figures to come from that line :

Picked up a couple of food props recently, so here's Zatanna enjoying "Taco Tuesday" at the pub:

A full English breakfast with John Constantine!
