Oof. Didn't realize these were "Collector Editions", so that's a pass on all three. There's just nothing here to justify the higher price-point. A useless card stand does not hold a $10 value in my book.

$30.00? For what?? The figures are crude, clumsy, and the fancy label fools no one.

That classic colors Captain Carrot looks leagues better than the regular version, funny what a couple of pupils will do for a figure.

I pre-ordered Captain Carrot and Superman, but I think that I'd be pretty pissed if I ended up receiving the Platinum variant for Supes/Krypto.

I don't know what he was even going for with that one. I guess it's supposed to be Krypto dying from Kryptonite poisoning in Whatever Happened to the Man of Tomorrow? Maybe? Only time I can think of that Krypto turned green. But of course, Superman didn't so... like I said, I don't know what he's going for here.

Captain Carrot seems to have already sold out on Amazon? I put my orders in with Target anyway, but that still surprised me - maybe it's just a temporary thing.

So Doggo has zero articulation? what a big fat bummer, Doggie could have been the saving grace for that booo of a re-pack Superman, but no gotta give us some movie maniacs business. ?

Captain Carrot is really fun, but that's about it, and I don't think he is fun enough I'd have any interest in buying him, but I'm actually really happy to see a figure, but the other 2 don't even feel "collector edition" too me, just some wrapping up the regular business in a fancy bow, Captain Carrot doesn't feel like he would be a mainline release makes sense, but more Bats and Supes just seems like yeah we done that. I would like to see Collectors Editions being more obscure, like Captain Carrot...like there is a reason it's sorta limited, because a big box store wouldn't really see to stock it.

also ew, superman's head looks so small on that overly exaggerated body, but maybe it's the angle, because from the pic it looks rough.

Well, I don't need no mullet Superman and as much as I applaud actually making a Captain Carrot figure, the... I guess it's the "realistic" look that doesn't do too much for me. I can dig that Bats, might go well with the Yellow Lantern one, but even that I'm on the fence with.
