No other character can pull this trick off so easily. Great pics as always, Dan.

I know how much of a Plas fan you are so I definitely had you in mind when I was putting this one together. The DC Direct History Plas is my least favorite of the bunch. Unless there is some variant I don’t know about, the final figure IS different than all those promo shots with elongated neck, and normal right arm and hand. I don’t think they should release Plastic Man figures with goofy hands withOUT packing in a second set of normal hands. And the buck is just bad.

Having trouble tracking that down. If you have a pic, please post!

If I photograph the watch and add it to the blog, I’ll definitely have to include the Plastic Man toothbrush that Sector1014 got me recently.

Awesome set of Brave & Bold figures. I ordered 3 sets, myself. Took forever to get them, as they came from Malaysia… Get them while they last!

And then there’s the ever famous 70′s “Stretch Plastic Man” that I’ve only come across without his inside goo….

cough.

Cool pix!

Awesome pics, as always. Plas is one of my all-time favorite characters.

In fact, I think I have an extra one.

Just didn’t want to clutter the research. Could you track down an image of the DC Direct PVC Plas? I can’t say I’ve come across that. Thanks!

Who’s Who might be the name.
.
The Heroclix entry could be enhanced to mention which sets they appeared in. Hypertime #100, #101, #102 (sculpts are the same, dials are different). Cosmic Justice #223 (the mailbox). Justice League #30 (the kite).
.
Brave and Bold. The two figures are the same, but they come with different accessories. In fact many of the above have accessories, which are quite cool. My Alex Ross Plastic Man has been on display for years and never been seen with his normal limbs.

In all seriousness, didn’t DCD make at least one Plas PVC?
