Blue and Gold and Gray
This week, I finally got my hands on the new Knight Models DC Universe Miniature Game: Multiverse Blue Beetle & Booster Gold two-pack figures, and they're pretty much as advertised.
I ordered them from GameNerdz.com.
As you can see, the miniatures (34mm high) are sold unpainted and unassembled, so you'll need to do a little work to get them display (or play) ready. For example, my Beetle fit poorly in his stand, and my Booster had some residual resin flash that required cutting away with an xacto blade. (You can see the white line under his outstretched arm.) Your mileage may vary.
If I do ever get around to painting them — and they turn out well — I'll be sure to let you know how that goes. (The list of things I say I'm going to get around to only gets longer and longer. Sigh.)

Objects May Be Closer Than They Appear
Knight Models, manufacturer of the DC Universe Miniature Game, has a new set available. In a word: Bwah-ha-ha!
These miniatures are only about an inch-and-a-half tall, and come in unpainted parts. (Don't expect to find any as good looking as the solicitation picture out of the box.) They are already for sale in Spain, and should be coming to specialty gaming stores stateside later this month.
More details available at knightmodels-store.com.

Get Outta My Dreams, Get Into Your Car
Daniel Jass recently dropped by the Boosterrific.com Facebook page to show off his custom die-cast Bosotermobile!
There is only one word for something that awesome: "Boosterrific."
I don't speak Portuguese, but it looks like Jass acquired his 1:64 scale Boostermobile from Brazilian mini-car customizer Paula Marques da Silva. You can find more pics of this hot rod in Jass' Facebook album and on his tumblr blog, DC Vehicles Die-Cast.
If you do look at Daniel's Facebook page, you might note that he thanks Boosterrific.com "for keeping alive the passion for Booster Gold!!" Daniel, if Boosterrific.com played even the smallest part in making such a cool idea come to life, all the time and effort have been completely worthwhile. Thank you for sharing.

Role Models
They say we only want what we can't have, and that must apply to comic book characters, too. Metamorpho even made an appearance in the rebooted Justice League International, and that exposure didn't seem to help him in the voting.
Last week's poll question: Which previous DCU JLI member would you prefer to see join the DCnU JLI? (43 votes)
As the world's attention turns to next week's NFL Championship game, the rematch of two quite different quarterbacks takes center stage. Can male-model Tom Brady win a fourth title, proving himself inarguably among the best NFL quarterbacks? Can unflappable Eli Manning step out of the shadow of his father and sibling to prove he's equal to the hype?
More importantly, how do these quarterbacks compare to the best quarterback in history: Michael "Booster" Carter?
