Im thinkin abt breaking and starting a collection of 1 of these 2 lines. Theyre both awesome and its been hard not to start either. Anyone have any input on which I should start?

GH...my argument is...how can you not??? I love them, even though they made a Jar Jar and are making the worst looking Rancor imaginable.

I saw the Rancor - and its actually one of the reasons Im considerin this line instead. (I love him.) But....I know u want to collect JLU as well, JP! Youre dyin to. Im also concerned that the JLU line is on its last leg, while GH looks strong. Tho GH will prolly be more expensive.

I've been trying to collect JLU and you are right... last legs possibly and 2007 was a %#!#*%^ for distribution... Give me a few more months and then I'll sell you my Mint on Card JLU for retail +S&H which will get you about 75% of it... Some of my stuff

I haven't heard ANYTHING about JLU being on its last legs. In fact, they premiered upcoming figures at the NY toyfair...
Oh and nice collection !!! I have the Justice Lords 6 pack, Black Canary/Joker/Batman 3 pack, Batman/Superman/Wonder Woman 3 pack, and a bunch of singles. I have a case on order from BBTS with that GL/Volcana/Hawk you have, the Obsidian/Braniac/Vigilante, etc. on order.

Last leg = the series has been over for 2 years and only have a limited amnt of worthy chars left to be made. (Especially considerin they really only make toons seen on the show.) Not to mention that they BARELY got a chance to continue the line, if not for Target. And the fact that theyre gonna be exclusively sold @ Target doesnt say much for the life of the line. Hopefully Im wrong tho. Its not an insult, its sad really. It was an awesome series.

7th, start up Galactic Heroes, will ya? Then I can live vicariously through you So, so, so tempting that line, with each new revelation and release. Thank god my saving up for a project car is preventing me spending the extra dough or I'd be balls deep in GH figs by now

If they would stop making 3 packs, there's still a TON of characters to be made: Gold Face The Key Evil Star Granny Goodness Fastball Blockbuster Captain Atom Boomerang Captain Cold Black Mass Devil Ray Helgramite Shadowthief Atomic Skull Giganta Heatwave Gentlemen Ghost Livewire Blue Llama B'wana Beast The Question The Creeper etc. Just the Legion Of Doom characters alone could go for awhile.But yeah, I am surprised it has gone on this long since the show ende a few years ago. I would really like to see the show return.

That is quite a bit. Especially if they spread em out w/reissues and repaints. I just dont think being Target only will get them very far.

I agree, but I have gotten quite a few at Fred Meyers, all at clearance prices, so I guess the other stores loss is my gain. Anyway, for a full list of JLU characters and their bio's, here's a great site: www.worldsfinestonline.com/WF/jlu/bios/
