DC Spin Master Heroes Unite - The Flash

I broke down and picked up a Flash figure online. It was the one figure I felt I had to add to my DC Heroes Unite collection before moving on to the filler figures. He's not even one of my favs from the line but a must have If you want a decent Justice League group display. On a side note, this Is the first Flash figure to make an appearance on this or any other toy blog I've ever ran In the past.



The paint used on some of the brighter figures In this line is very glossy. It comes across great in-hand but it can be a pain to take pictures without a shiny glare. Ironically, I took these shots of  Flash without flash.   


He's a nice looking figure. A bit more muscular than I would have liked for a Flash figure but It's not so bad.  


It's all becoming clearer to me now. I suspected that his action shot would be the same as Cyborgs seeing as how they are depicted together. 


It's the backgrounds that change according to the mission you receive.  


I had Flash standing up next to his locker for this pic. This was the image that developed. Flash got jokes! 


I'm not that versed In the Flash mythos but I don't ever remember him having any powers other than superhuman speed. I still really like these mystery accessories. It lends to the imagination.


He reminds me of  Funko Primal Age Flash with his equipped accessories.


Here's the collection so far.

    He's definitely less ripped on the CW show, but the figure reminds me of how I remember him on the 80's cartoons.

      There are a ton of cartoon sites online where you can watch them all. I don't recommend downloading them, but they can be streamed.

      I guess that would be the "right" way to do it ;)

    The muscles are the first thing you notice. He's not normally so muscular. Amazing this is his first appearance on a blog of yours.

    They really are, Colin. And that's coming from a Marvel head. I've always liked the Flash's costume but wasn't big on the character.

    I found one of these Flash figures in the wild while looking for the TMNT Musical Mutagen figures. Such a cool line of DC toys!

The other day ,my better half and I had the chance to traverse our local mall early In the day.I hate going to malls at peak hours or on the weekends.The crowds are just too damn cool for me.Long story short,our mall now has a toy store! I couldn't believe my eyes.From a far It looked like It was going to be some artsy fartsy place with educational toys ,wooden blocks and model kits,but no!This place had pretty much everything collectors go for nowadays.The name of the store Is "Go!,Toys and Games" and I can honestly say that I've never heard of It before.Everything was a dollar or two extra ,but that's not too bad considering how ridiculously expensive modern toys are In hobby and toy shops these days.I really hope this place sticks around. There Is a nice mix of everything.Marvel Legends,Star Wars  to blind bags to Funko figs.On top of that there are tons of board games   and books. WTF? Yes! 3 3/4 Marvel Legends!!!!!Not alot thou...

My last "Merry Christmas To Me" post was going to be of Marvel Legends Spider-Man animated cartoon series figure that I thought I was getting a great deal on. It turns out the figure was a bootleg. $30 down the drain and a fake Spider Man figure in the trash. I didn't even bother trying to get a refund from the seller. I'll chalk it up to a loss and keep it moving. So today I figured I'd  treat myself to something dope in the toy aisles at my local Walmart and found this!  I'm not sure if this is a reissue or what but It was the last one on the pegs and so I grabbed it. Now I can't get that damned theme song out of my head.
