DC Collectibles Reveals New 52 Lex Luthor in Time-Lapse Digital Sculpting Video

Superman’s arch-nemesis Lex Luthor will be joining the DC Collectibles line of New 52 action figures, as revealed in a video blog of their digital sculpting approach.

DC Collectibles Reveals New 52 Deathstroke

DC Collectibles has been playing the Spoiler Alert game over the past few days, and have revealed the upcoming New 52 Deathstroke. Seeing it now, it seems obvious, but I was amazed that folks had spotted Deathstroke’s boot in the first shot. By the third teaser, everyone was crying out for old Slade.

Seeing as Deathstroke will be DLC for Arkham Origins, I imagine we’ll see another version of him soon. But it does beg the question: with one successful season on the books, when will we see Deathstroke from the Arrow TV series? How about Arrow action figures, period? Seems right up DC Collectibles’ alley.

The reveal is here! What do you think of this DC Super-Villains Deathstroke Action Figure? Is that what you thought it was?
