I don't even know half of these characters they show there so I'm going to save money when they get out. The only ones I see there I want are Joker and John Stewart. Steppenwolf Maybe I do have his Super Power counterpart so maybe. Of chourse I only have room for 8 more figures and coming Monday Aug. 3rd I would be ordering the Wonder Twins so that be only room for 6 more.



I'm with you, bud!

If someone could provide a list of names as to just who these figs are, I'd (we'd) really appreciate it! And go look them up and such! Green guy with swords? Orange guy with 'M'? Freezemeister on steroids? Hell, just name them all to be safe! :)


green guy-steppenwolf total badass from darkseids new gods
orange guy with m- major force pretty much evils answer to captain atom
freezemeister-icicle part of the injustice league
black and white woman-silver banshee
red and black figure-brimstone

I think people are still drooling over the pictures!!! I gotta say, pretty nice!! I really liked the Steppenwolf!! Question though, who is the while chick, the red big guy, and why does the Superman next to them look so weird, and who is the black guy with the white mask???

Just in case it hasn't got answered yet.
I think the chick is SIlver Banshee which appeared in the Public Enemies story arc. What dude with white mask is Black Lighting and guy in red should be Major Force.

Steppenwolf was Darkseid's uncle and commander before Darkseid rose to power. Darkseid manipulates him into killing Highfather's wife, and being killed by Highfather(he comes back of course, working for Darkseid this time). I was just rereading that issue the other day, and that figure is a perfect rendition of Kirby's Steppenwolf. Just badass. I don't really care about the Superpowers version, though, a much less interesting design IMO.

Major Force is probably best known for killing Kyle Rayner's girlfriend and stuffing her body into a refrigerator, which ticked off a lot of fans, including awesome writer Gail Simone.

Geez, awesome figures overall. I can't believe we're actually getting a B'wana Beast! Sinestro Corps 2-pack and Cyborg Superman all look cool, hopefully we get an Arkillo to join them.

Kilowog looks great, even better than the DC Direct version, which is saying a lot. Imperiex actually looks pretty cool.

Lex Luthor is perfect, the Batman and Superman in that pack are perfect too.

Not too crazy about the Ed McGuiness figures though.

Major Force would be the guy responsible for killing Kyle Rayner's girlfriend and stuffing her in the refrigerator for Kyle to find.

At least I can go with the knowledge that they are showing us the next 12-15 months worth of figures so I will not have to sell any other collection to get these. Wave 9 should be hitting in the next month or so and I expect them to stick to the every couple of months for new DCUC waves. Overall, I am excited about all of the DCUC, JLU, and even the DCIH with improved articulation. Now I must start plotting where to put them along with the new ML and MU stuff.

Jhon Steward, Katma Tui, Kilowog, Imperiex, Major Force, PowerGirl, Cyborg Superman, Sinestro corps, Kanto and others servants darkseid, Animal man too! hoba hoba!! AWESOME!!!! I am Sale ALL my Marvel Legends Collections for money for the new series!!!

To new Superman!!!! great!!! bye bye ToyBiz!!


It's not KANTO, it's STEPPENWOLF.

Now they have to go for the few remaining superpowers left:
MARTIAN MANHUNTER
DESAAD
MISTER FREEZE
CYCLOTRON
PLASTIC MAN
GOLDEN PHARAOH
ORION
SAMURAI


ORION and FREEZE in their SUPERPOWERS likenesses.

and hope that they also make the prototypes that never saw the day of light, like ATOMIC KNIGHT, SILICON, SHOCKWAVE, MR.MYXPLTK, ZOOM, STEVE TREVOR and others from the archives.

Only Mattel can make you happy and sad at the same mutha-humpin time. All of these dumb butt exclusives are ridiculous. 2 Walmart exclusives, an entire wave plus a five pack...wth???? and then the public enemies Target exclusives...omgoodness...not again. So towards the end of the years fans have not one, not two, but THREE store exclusives to run around and hunt for..plus the fookin variants...COME ON

Who continues to go overboard with these stupid decisions, PEOPLE CANNOT FIND THESE YOU JERKS



btw, the stupid Superman movie masters SUCK

I hope that the Walmart exclusives come out before Thanksgiving. It is already a hassel to find the figures then to find ones with good paint jobs. The last thing I want to contend with is hunting wave 10 and the 5-pack at the holidays

Regarding Target, obviously I can only speak for myself, but I've never had a problem finding a Target exclusive. This includes Star Wars, GI Joe, Marvel, DC, etc. Usually, they make endcaps specifically devoted to the exclusives, and I suspect they'll do that for the Public Enemies figures since it encompasses two lines.

It'd be more work, but you could buy the set, keep Two-Face and sell the rest on Ebay. I bet a lot of people will pay big bucks just for that Luthor.

My only regret is the Superman that comes with the 5-pack. It would be Batman, too, but I so far only have the one version from the first wave, whereas I have DCSH Superman, Long-hair , red, blue, back-suit, and now heat-vision Supes from the Brainiac 2-pack. So for me, I'd have rathered someone else be in that 5-pack. Especially since I don't really see anything different about him versus the one's I already have. But, I will no doubt still buy it for the Luthor and Two-Face. (And then they'll show up single-carded like two months later! :) )

And it looks like I'll finally NOT be completeing a BAF. I can't justify buying the Public Enemies wave. Not all of it, anyway. Major Force and Banshee are OK (if not TOO animated), and maybe Black Lightning, but the rest can be peg fodder. No Brimstone for me. (And shouldn't he be like 10 feet tall to be in scale - based on the first JLU episode? That was Brimstone, right?)

Everything else looks great! I can wait to see the Megos - and what they'll cost, especially since we've been getting the collector series now, which blows the Megos away, but at too great a cost.

Oh for sure. Word I'm getting on these is Green Arrow is an on-line exclusive while the others can be had at Toys R Us only.
