These King Shark and Dr. Fate figures are a boon from McFarlane Toys, as the prices of their DC Universe Classics counterparts are too exorbitant in the secondary market.
King Shark is from the second Suicide Squad movie, and Dr. Fate's design is from the Injustice video game and comics. Because of Todd McFarlane's figure line, there is no more need to hanker for insanely-priced DCUC figures.
The DCUC King Shark now costs anywhere from 120 to 160 US dollars. Some sellers also want the same price for DCUC Dr. Fate as DCUC King Shark. Insane.
The McFarlane King Shark is patterned after the fun Harley Quinn cartoon. There, King Shark is a smart IT guy who is a prince in the ocean. The Harley Quinn King Shark was James Gunn's model for his Suicide Squad King Shark.
Meanwhile, the McFarlane Injustice Dr. Fate does not have the classic yucky girdle-slash-boxer briefs of the 80s Dr. Fate. Outer briefs and underwear are so 60s.
All in all, these pieces are great 💖💖💖
