    Especially since he's probably going to be double packed because of the variant. From what I am seeing from the seller's on Ebay, he is single packed per case. I think the breakdown is: 1 X John Stewart 1 X Deadman (50/50 Variant) 1 X Shark 1 X Cybrog Superman 1 X Katma Tui 1 X Question 1 X Steppenwolf (don't know the split) 1 X Superman (looks like the one from the 5-pack) 1 X Batman (See Supes) 1 X Flash Quick correction. Steppenwolf is the 50/50 variant split and Deadman and his variant is the 70/30 chase.

    Hey when you get him you can take a sharpie and put an exclamaton point at the end. I'll have to admit I lost alittle enthusiasm over marvel products too. I don't care who DCUC come out with I get excited. They could come out with a wave of Doctor Mist, Dolphin, Knockout, Klarion The Witch Boy, Lord of Time, Plastique, Oracle, and The C&C would be NERON. I would buy all of them even though I have no idea about half the characters I just named. The average joe wouldn't know about them either but they would still be hard to find. LoL Tigersharks again. LOL

    The thing that throws of Shark is that the head does not sit flush on the neck. It does look hella big, and just off. The 4H let an intern design him, and he did a crappy headswap on a Zan figure he had laying around. LOL, on a positive note, seeing him makes me want some Mattel Tigersharks figures.

    So question. If Matt Mason is a known scalper and rip off artist, and if Rowdy has been confirmed as Matt Mason, then why is he allowed on here to trade, etc?

    Dude not even the question ?.. For me its The Question John Stewart Green Lantern Cyborg Superman Sinestro Corps Deadman comes in last because of his head ?kiliwog? (I'm unsure of...) Yes I am not a fan of the Question and still pissed he won the fan poll.... so boring to me. I disagree, i think its the fact that most non hard hitters in DC just are not as popular as Marvels b listers and even some c listers. Marvel is just more exposed over the last 10-15 years. Draven You only say that because you are probably a Marvel fan. DC's b listers are just the same as Marvel B listers. If anything the success of Marvel over the past 15 years is not a testament to quality, but hype. I am a DC fan since the beginning, but when DC slumps in the quality and Marvel increase, I read Marvel, but that is not he case, DC has better output and overall better characters. I think most people on TNI are marvel dudes but they can't seem to get enough DC stuff? I agree with Draven...but I'm a big Marvel fan. That said, there have been a lot more Marvel movies involving b level characters than there have been DC films. The X-Men trilogy comes to mind. I'd call Silver Surfer a b level character and tons of people who don't collect comics know who he is. I think Marvel has done a better job marketing over the past 10 years than DC has. Your statement is not true, DC has had many B level characters made into movies, while the quality of these movies is debatable, they were made none the less, Swamp Thing, Steel, Supergirl, Catwoman, Constantine, V for Vendetta, Teen Titans, and a host of others. DC has had trouble getting their staple characters onto the big screen but a lot of unknown output is released but aren't immediately known, heck I don't even know most of them. Silver Surfer and the X-Men are FAR from b listers in the Marvel universe, they are the tops, and trust me, most people do not know who the Silver Surfer is. Either way, DC will forever set the standard, DC live action series have dominated any Marvel output, the Superman movies are the staple archetype for comic based movies, heck Spider-man 1, 2, 3 are all based off Superman 1, 2, and 3. DC has the best all around cartoons on TV but proper promotion and lack of exposure ruin them, but come on, what Marvel cartoons can rival JLU, Superman/Batman TAS, Teen Titans, Galactic Guardians, Superman 88, you stack them up and Marvel falls, heck even though DCUC came after legends, they buy far exceeded them. Even the term "super" hero is coined after the VERY FIRST SUPERHERO...SUPERMAN!!!! I said Marvel does a better job promoting it's characters (a or b level) than DC does...and I mean to a broader target audience. The X-Men altogether may be a list in the Marvel U, but Cyke? Jean Grey? Prof X? Mags? These are b levels in the overall universe and in the world (our world). Their movie was better than any of the ones you mentioned and therefore they have been promoted better. Btw, Supergirl was made about 20 years ago I think. I was talking 10 years back. Teen Titans wasn't a movie...their target audience was kids...still, that's a good example I guess. Tho it's been so long since that cartoon was popular and those figs have been produced in DCUC, that it's kinda obsolete at this point. V for Vendetta isn't DCU (yes, it's produced by DC, but that character isn't in the DCU). I think if you went to avg, non-comic book readers and started rattling off Marvel and DC characters, I think right now, you are going to get more recognition hits on Marvel characters than DC. Yeah i think I disagree with this. I am a huge Marvel fans and love the characters, comics, and the toys, but DC Comics has ICONIC characters. Don't believe me. I'm not even gonna take the go ask an old person who Jean Grey or Deathlok are. Go to any middle school and show kids pictures of Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Flash, Robin, Joker, Batgirl, Supergirl, etc and they will know ALL of them. Outside of Spiderman, Wolverine, Hulk, Captain America and Iron Man (recent film fame), kids won't know like the other 90% of those characters. Like they recognize teams XMen, Fantastic Four, Avengers (maybe) but ask a kid who do they know Tony Stark or Bruce Wayne and I know who the winner is. Now Peter Parker vs Clark Kent would be a tough one to guess, but my point is DC characters are much more recognizable.
  14. Ok, but what WOULD kick a$ is if there was a cool CGI thundercats or silverhawks show in the vein of Clone Wars on CN. That would be sick, and kids would watch. CGI doesn't save cartoons--rather the opposite. It tends to condemn them.... Firstly, we aren't talking about saving, more like MAKING. and secondly if CGI isn't good for cartoons, then what? People complain if it is over used in live action movies, but if done right like Beuowolf, Final Fantasy Advent Children, Star Wars Clone Wars series, and the upcoming Gatchaman movie, it looks great and works.

  16. Ok, my eyes are bleeding now after reading that strip. What just happened?
  17. DCUC and MOTUC. Ghostbusters to me, and this is just IMO Ghostbusters is a waste of a line. After the 4 guys... then what? Janine? Luis? Dana? Psssshhh. This should/could have been a SDCC exclusive 4 pack. Set the price point at $100 for the 4 guys in a cool box set. Then next year do a Sta-Puft Marshmellow Man. Then Ecto 1 and call it a day! But DCUC and MOTUC thats money in the bank.

    wave 10

    LOL, calling this a wave 10 thread is very misleading at this point.
  19. would be cool to have a Silverhawks/Tigersharks/Thundercats power hour type show! Woot!
  20. OMG, those would all be bought so fast. And don't forget the Transparent SDCC exclusive Jaga they could make! SICK!
  21. I will get them all but this wave is kinda meh to me.
  22. Believe it JJ. My net was down yesterday (damn you Comcast) I wanted to reach you to let you know my other cases of Wave 10 had come in, and I was gonna tell you where to score some. I picked up mine (manager hid it on the floor for me) but they also put our like 2 other cases on an endcap. They are expecting 8 more cases at that store (they ordered 10 for me) so Mattys declaration makes me believe the store that said they had 300 figs on order will be getting them.
  23. Thanks. The more I think about it, its a no brainer.
  24. So does anyone think this head swap would work? I think the screaming head would look better on Rex and vice versa. Any photoshop experts wanna do a mock up?
