A few weeks back, I posted up some 25mm superheroes from the mid-1980s. I got another box in the mail, this time the Teen Titans. The box came with six heroes and four villains and I managed to get the heroes painted up.
First up are Wonder Girl, Nightwing and Jericho. There are lots of variant costumes available to choose from but I took the earliest ones (which is what the minis were based on).
Overall, the sculpts are nice, if a bit thin and static. The second set included Cyborg, Starfire, and Changeling. I can see why the sculptor would have chosen the flying pose for Starfire but her shooting a bolt of whatever out of her fist would have been a more useful pose. Changling shifting into a lion is a nice effort.
Overall, these are decent enough figures. The omission of Raven and Kid Flash are notable, although at least the Titan box contained a few women. They more or less scale alright with the Justice League figures. Maybe the Titans are a bit thinner but I guess we could write that off as they're not quite fully grown.
The scale difference between the 25mm Mayfair figures and more modern 28/32mm sculpts (these being heroclix) is quite marked.
I'm not sure if I'm going to get another post up before I take a summer break. If not, happy summering and I'll see you in September!
