  • Today we hop in the way back machine and have a look at series one of the 1996 vintage Total Justice action figure line from Kenner. The first series consists of Batman, Robin, The Flash, Green Lantern Kyle Rayner, Aquaman, and Darkseid. The next Total Justice video to be uploaded will be all about series two. Sorry this one is so long. The next one will be much shorter I promise.

    "Total Justice" was the middle child between the much loved "Super Powers" line and the more advanced DC Direct figures that were coming. After TJ, most of the DC action figures in the stores were from the animated Batman, Superman and Justice League lines. As limited as they were, TJ was a very good representation of the Post-Crisis/Zero Hour DCU.

    A few years after the line came out, I was in the toy aisle at Walmart while my mom grocery shopped and I found the black Batman with the fractal armor loose in a box of plushies. It wasn’t one someone had opened because it was all beat up and played with. I asked my mom if I could keep it and she said yes. I cut out a scrap of black fabric and glued it to him for a cape. I loved that Batman

    One thing that I could say about these figures is: they know how to lift and they never skip leg day. Lol

    I like the longer videos. I completely understand how shorter ones are more CZcams algorithm friendly, but I enjoyed this one, too.

    I have a copy of the Aquaman figure signed by Jason Momoa from when I met him at KC Comicon

  • @RMAILLER
    @RMAILLER Před 4 lety +2

    You are correct, that was the first aquaman with the hand hook... I have both waves, I just missed 3 of them, and the figures from the JLA that came after can be placed alongside the Total Justice line, they practically reused parts of the sculpted bodies, I really liked this reviews from old lines... PS: I still have the ripped card boxes of some of them.

    Yes the artwork for the packaging was done by the great Jon Bogdanove, great video as always, and greeting from México!!

    Totally Extreme Armored Justice! I remember being drawn to this line for its character choices but hating the way the poses and articulation made them look. I probably should have gotten classic Superman. I ended up buying Superman Blue from the JLA line, which was just a repaint of Superman with a different head.

  • @badwolfmovies69
    @badwolfmovies69 Před 3 lety +2

    All these figures look amazing. Especially darkseid, he's probably one of my favorite out of these figures

  • @ageeksadventureswoohoo9213

    This line was awesome!!!!!!! Great figures and loved that armor!

    Love the old school figure videos man!

    @JD_ATX Před 5 lety +1

    I was a HUGE fan of this toy line overall but not keen on the "fractal tech gear" or 5 POA but for their time, they were actually very nice. I continued to collect the line even after it was technically cancelled the first time (and rebranded as "JLA" and sold exclusively via comic shops), all the way through it's final cancellation with the last wave being a Toys-R-Us exclusive. By the way, the Wonder Woman figure was extremely cool but way out of scale to the rest of the line. She towered over all the other males figures in the line (with the exception of Darkseid and Despero).

  • @jz1878
    @jz1878 Před 5 lety +3

    Another great video! Btw: They spelled "Kyle Rayner" wrong. Despite that, this series has my favorite figure of all time - Parallax. Looking very much to your Series 2 video!

  • @denniscleary7580
    @denniscleary7580 Před 3 lety

    Loved this series when it came out, still have my Green Lantern and Darkseid

  • @ShawnSJames
    @ShawnSJames Před 5 lety +4

    Had all these. But I replaced Batman with Crusader Batman from Legends of Batman and Batman Returns Robin.
    Big challenge is getting these to stand up. The forced posing makes it hard to keep these balanced. Spent a good 30-45 minutes trying to get all of these on the shelf when I had them.

    • @RMAILLER
      @RMAILLER Před 4 lety

      HAHAHA... me too, I did the exact same thing with the batman and robin, great minds think alike

  • @Avenging_Archer
    @Avenging_Archer Před 4 lety

    I have Green Lantern and Flash. Great toys! I found an Aquaman in original package at GREAT price! Probably will get it.

  • @Arrowdodger

    Very nice, I love that this is such a time capsule.

  • @Flopfist

    I have my darkseid holding aquaman off the edge of the shelf with his claw

  • @Duwolfe
    @Duwolfe Před 5 lety +1

    What a trip down memory lane. I had the Aquaman, Flash, Green Lantern, and Robin out of this series. However, I threw all the armor away except Kyle Raynor’s.

    • @BradTheDCUniverseGeek
      @BradTheDCUniverseGeek  Před 5 lety

      That seemed to be a very common thing. The armour wasn’t super popular in thinking.

    • @Duwolfe
      @Duwolfe Před 5 lety

      Brad The DC Universe Geek yeah but being a DC fan in the 90’s, we had to take what we could get. Kinda feels that way today, too, come to think of it.

    Excelente, thanks por capsule time!

  • @JAbell1966
    @JAbell1966 Před 5 lety +1

    Oh, wow... Got that Robin when the line was first released and I *never* realized that the ends came off of that murder staff! (BTW, that Aquaman had the armor changed to gold during the second production run)

  • @JomasterTheSecond
    @JomasterTheSecond Před 3 lety +2

    Aaah, 90's action figures.
    The only time where the figures began to _decrease_ in value after the decade ended.

  • @the99doctor81

    Great video man Kenner and DC made some of the coolest toys.

  • @MetalGreggNY75
    @MetalGreggNY75 Před 4 lety

    The sculpt of Robin looks like a sculpt of Matt Damon with black hair.

  • @craigcharlesworth1538
    @craigcharlesworth1538 Před 5 lety +1

    Never mind hook-hand Aquaman, is that the first comic-based Batman figure not to wear the underpants?
    Also, it's a real shame that claw grabber isn't removable as without it that would be one of the best Darkseid figures ever.

  • @falleneldor
    @falleneldor Před 5 lety +1

    First time watching Batman V Superman Dawn of Justice I recall thinking "did Flash just pop out of that portal from the future wearing Fractle Tech armor?!?" 😐😑😯😒🙁😔😩

    @luckypapi87 Před 4 lety

    I remember this line in the 90s. I had the Darkseid, Robin, and Green lantern. All I could find. And dam they look tiny compared to a DCUC figure. Where's Superman?

  • @tryksta7247
    @tryksta7247 Před 5 lety

    That's funny, I only had this Flash from the series also. Can't quite remember if I had the armor or not.

    @Nightwing1933 Před 5 lety

    I do really like this robin figure, Very Comic accurate aside from the cape, though Kenner/Hasbro Would Later ReRelease this figure in their JLA line that gives him a more comic accurate cape

  • @dmitrinajim4663
    @dmitrinajim4663 Před 5 lety

    The weapon thing that comes with green lantern looks like the weapon that came with a Star Wars Kanan Jarrus 3.75” figures not too long ago

    The tech gear for the league almost looks like tenth metal(element x) from dark nights metal event, when Batman faced off against barbatos's evil batmen army at the end of the graphic novel riding a 🃏 🐉😅

  • @dmitrinajim4663
    @dmitrinajim4663 Před 5 lety

    If only that claw on Darkseid was removable! Ugh

  • @JLRules
    @JLRules Před 3 lety

    Am I the only person on the planet who pronounces the "Aqua" of Aquaman as "ACKwa", not "ARKwa"? Is it 'cos I'm British?
    Meanwhile, I always despised Kyle Rayner's costume. All the GLs have too much black, but proportionally there's barely any green on Kyle's suit. Even the symbol is half-black. And why is the chest WHITE? What is its shape supposed to represent? A mug with the handle on the right side? Hideous.
