Shin Densetsu:
Tiberius:
So Larfreeze, Atrocitus and Garrik are the must haves. So far, once again, glad I didn't sub.
BlackMagnus:
Oh man, that Batman/Azrael 2 pack is a must have!
Jason Abbadon:
Kinda weird that they did none of the "New 52" versions of the characters.
I'd have expected a new Superman or Green Arrow at least.
arias:
So where does that Penguin fit in? Sure hope its not part of the sub.... as I hate him. Also hope they spruce up the colours on Merton's chair.
Fortune:
So ....is this all we are gunna see?
quipp209:
All of wave 20 are must haves for me I jus wish it didn't end I just started collecting dcuc figures this year.. go to my YouTube if u wanna c my collection quipp209 lol
LXL_Guy:
I only want Dawn from wave 20. I hope to find her.
Crazy Jetty:
LARFLEEZE!!!!
WIN!!!!!

Sinestro Hal vs Blue Lantern Kyle I don't understand, but I'll gladly take it!

SC Sinestro is dissapointing, but in truth, not as dissapointing as yet *another* release in his "classic" costume. I wish they'd made the appropriate SC alterations instead of painting over the Sinestro Costume details.

I find myself hoping they release a Hawk & Dove twopack at some point, that features the *other* Hawk and Dove, so the sets can be complete.
Do Boy:
Wow these look really good.
Fortune:
Those are pretty sick but I am very glad I did not subscribe. Hopelfully they show more cuz really thus far ....very dissapointed with new info. Also why doesnt mattel have anything out for their WWE line.

That's actually the one figure shown here I'll probably buy.

That penguin has been driving me nuts. I keep flip flopping between loving and hating him.
hrothgars:
The red Azbats is cool, though once again it is packaged with a figure that shouldn't be made (yet another blue/gray Batman variant).

Yellow Hal had to come sometime. Blue Kyle fills a niche for all the Rainbow Lantern collectors out there and is a cheap repaint for Mattel.

Metron has a decent/detailed head sculpt. Hopefully somebody will want to pay full price for mine when I get it.

Wave 20: Red Arrow's grimace is awful. The rest of the line looks pretty solid and fills some character slots.

From my reading, the only Club Infinite Earths subscription figures shown are Metron, Starman, Jay Flash, and Atrocitus. No news here.

Super Powers Penguin looks like an easy pass. I still have my original Super Powers Penguin and he sucks, so why would I want another one? It is unclear where he fits into the line. Hopefully this is an exclusive and not a subscription figure. Please, Mattel.

I could live with Larfleeze being a subscription figure. Rainbow Lantern collectors need him so he should be made, and he should be easy to sell for those who don't want to keep him. The "World Premiere" tag confirms none of this.

Wave 19: These are some pretty cool figs. Yes, the Atom buck is too tall, but Stargirl & S.T.R.I.P.E. are both cool as Hades. Also, the alternate Hawkman heads had me sold from the day these were announced.

No earth-shaking figures in the lot, but I see a lot of value buys.
ludovicotek:
I could see the Super Powers Penguin being released in the Batman Legacy line, but I'd be happy if he was a part of the sub, which I didn't sign up for. I understand all the hate for this figure, but I like him.
Fortune:
Im not sure how Penguin will be released but I doubt it will be Batman legacy as he wasnt over with 1st appearance batman and Catwoman. Cant wait for the Mattel panel
CLASSIFIED:
I'm thinking sub-figure for Penguin.

I think Penguin and larfleeze will either be Sub figures or in the new rebranding.

Larfleeze is definitely part of the re-branded line.

What makes you say that?

I read an article over at Actionfigurepics.com

"Toy Guru is hoping that by revealing Larfleeze as an upcoming retail figure that this will put to rest the notion that next year’s retail line will be all DCnU. He’s not sure how that became the prevailing view in the collector community, but he wants people to know that it’s not going to be all about the new 52. He acknowledges that some of the new designs will make it to retail, but there’s still going to be figures like Larfleeze that make it to retail."

So it seems there's still hope for some older characters making it into the new retail line. I guess Penguin could conceivably make his way into the line as well.

Penguin will very likely be retail then. Both wave 1s will have a penguin

Hey, I didn't even think about that. You might be on to something there.
BlackMagnus:
I'm really looking forward to snagging the Penguin too, hope he is a mass release.
Tiberius:
Just need Mr. Larfleeze, Senoir Atrocitus and I am happy.
Fortune:
I think the DCD larfleeze is much better. There is something off about the DCUC one. Almost looks babyfied? Something is def off.

Yes, thank you! I'm still waiting for the new 52 designs to enter the toyline before I start picking up any DC Universe Classics. Didn't DC say they were ending the DCUC line and replacing it with something new, which would involve the new 52 looks?

They should get figures of the new designs out and start popularizing them now if they want the relaunch to continue its success. Keeping the iconic yet outdated designs of these characters takes away from the importance of the new 52 designs.
D00MTR0N:
that azbat looks awesome.
Ravenxl7:
The Batman 2-pack is definitely tempting, though I'm not really all that interested in the "battle damaged" Batman figure. The red repaint of Azrael Batman is definitely the to-get figure from that set. Looks to be a great update to Ultra Armor Batman from the old Legends line.
