Hey Speed Readers,
Just wanted to let those interested know that DC Collectibles New 52 Flash is on sale at Amazon.com for $8.32 USD! It is Amazon Prime eligible which means free 2 day shipping or $3.99 overnight shipping for those that subscribe. In any case, a steal for this price.
For those that still can’t decide whether to blow less than 10 dollars on this pretty solid action figure you can catch a bunch of comparison pics at my own site, FastestFanAlive.com:

For what it is worth I thought the figure was a solid effort overall. Sure it could use a bit more articulation and the face is, for lack of a better word, “derpy”, but the details in the sculpt alone are totally worth it. The electric seams on Flash’s armor are actually sculpted into this figure in contrast with Mattel’s version of the figure which not only lacks the sculpted details but instead has painted on yellow lines which serve to make the figure look kind of hokey. If they had only kept the original solicited head sculpt this version would have been superior in every way. Still for this price I can’t complain at all.
Again the link can be found HERE
Just to be clear, Speedforce.org makes no money off of this link. We simply want to help out fellow Flash fans and collectors.
So who plans on picking up this guy up for the low, low discounted price of 8 bucks?
ah, oh if my son would see this! he’ll go crazy on this. He got a collection of DC Flash comic book.
*facepalm* They Seriously Did Not Fix The Face. Oh gawd, I am so glad I went with the artfx statue.
Maybe it came with a warning? “Kids, don’t sniff glue. Not even at superspeed.”
Yikes! Whose is Crazed Toothpaste Commercial Flash on the left? I kind of like the raised eyebrow look to the left of Derby, but Auto Super-Shine Waxed on the right is still my favorite.
Blue Barry just looks like he was hit by the Rainbow Raider…or maybe that should be Victim of Captain Cold over on the far right, but that one still makes me think of Thawne for some reason.
The Aquaman figure is even cheaper at $7.54 on sale:

Is it the lighting that makes all these figures look crosseyed? Plus (despite the fact that I’d liked Aquaman since the 1970’s cartoons) that necklace has got to go. It makes him look like he was the victim of the owner’s young sister doing a successful game of ring toss with some accessory from her Barbie collection.
Just say’n.
i might consider it… maybe… if someone will mold me a new head… lol
It’s the holidays.
Some store somewhere MUST have Playdough on sale! 😛
The deal is already dead, Amazon’s constant price changes have gotten to it.
i was wondering what series/model the 5th flash on the left was
thx
