DC Direct’s hugely successful Blackest Night action figure line continues with its eighth wave! Correct me if I’m wrong, but The Blot’s pretty sure the Blackest Night series is now DC Direct’s longest running line of action figures. The details on these figures are incredible, and each wave is better than the last. This begs the question, if DC Direct continues this line of toys, which Blackest Night characters would you want to see included in the next series? I know one reader is hoping for a Red Lantern Guy Gardner figure, and I’d love to see a Black Lantern Hawk and a White Lantern Dove set released.
Included in Blackest Night Series 8 is: Black Lantern Black Flash, Professor Zoom's reanimated corpse holds curious sway over The Flash's other undead rogues; Orange Lantern Lex Luthor, the new Orange Power Ring seeks out Lex Luthor for his avarice and lust for power; Indigo Tribe The Atom, with compassion and his sense of duty stronger than ever, Ray Palmer serves as the binding force uniting the spectrum of power; and Sinestro Corps Member Scarecrow, who delights in instilling fear in others and is rewarded with the Yellow Ring of Power.
Blackest Night Series 8 action figures by DC Direct feature multiple points of articulation and come packaged in a 4-color clamshell blister card. Each figure also includes a display base and character-appropriate accessories. Blackest Night Series 7 is scheduled to go on sale December 8, 2010.
