That's exactly what I did. Avengers movie iron man helmet with nick fury body. Gave up on a robin custom and picked up an infinite heroes robin.

Ooooo nice.

Yeah, Iron Man heads work very well. I'm using one (Bleeding Edge) as one of the alternate heads for the DCUC Red Hood I'm working on at the moment, and it's actually my favorite one because it reminds me of Patrick Gleason's artwork for the character. I sculpted a nose and filled in some of the detail lines to make it less recognizable as Iron Man, but it obviously looks great without any extra (and unneeded) work too.


Anyhoo, I think Harley/Cyborg just jumped up to a higher spot on my "to buy" list. I'm still holding out for a Multiverse Arkham Harley Quinn of some sort, but I'm starting to like the idea of getting a partial Teen Titans team built using Nightwing, Cyborg and Raven.

This thought occurred to me as well. It'll probably be a little while before I get any more but Flash/Raven is next on the list after Deathstroke/Green Arrow (unless Batman/Joker is out by then).

And other than feeling slightly more fragile than the fellas of the group Harley's pretty awesome. Doesn't hurt that she's higher up on my list of favorite characters to play as in Injustice though.

I got them at TRU, and they were only $1 more than Target, unlike their other DC stuff that is much more expensive.

Well Arkham Knight could be the fabled Wave 3. It would coincide with the release of the game, so that would make a smart choice on Mattel's part.

[snake5289]

Awwww yeah. Finally made it happen. Turns out a MU Deadpool head works perfectly.

D'oh! I don't know why that didn't occur to me. Nicely done! That looks great.

That's the reason I'm so sure it'll be an Arkham Knight wave. It would also make sense why we haven't seen anything yet, because the game developers in general are being fairly secretive so they're probably making Mattel hold off at least until the next big con (SDCC?) happens.

If I were to guess the selection, I would expect AK armored Batman, Harley Quinn, Two-Face and maybe Riddler.

We're getting a movie version of Penguin, so I'm assuming that they'll stay away from the character for a while. Same with Catwoman. Harley and Two-Face both featured prominently in the initial trailer, and Riddler is being hyped up as having his largest role yet in the Arkham series. I forget how many characters we get per wave, but logically Scarecrow will have a guaranteed slot since he is (supposedly) the ringleader of the villains. Mattel doesn't always follow logic though - notice how we didn't get either Black Mask or Joker, and instead got an extremely minor AO character like Deadshot.

Honestly, though, the selection doesn't matter a whole lot to me so long as we get plenty of villains. I would love to finally get a Robin if he happens to make an appearance in the game, but that's wishful thinking.

I just hope we get the catwoman they showed at TF.

Hasn't it been six figures for Wave 1 and 2, so far? Your 5 guesses sound logical. My guess for #6 is attached.

And they better offer that Batmobile, too, to the general public. Perhaps they will sell a version of it without the sound effects electronics, thus, reducing its cost considerably yet preserving the uniqueness and collectible aspect of the $85 one.

[snake5289]

I'd imagine if the next wave is Arkham Knight based wouldn't the title character be made into a figure? Even if he's a new character it would make the most sense.

Thanks you guys. He's certainly been a long time coming.

[redfox]

Just watched the trailer again. Batman, Arkham Knight, Scarecrow, Two-Face, Harley Quinn, and Riddler would all be great additions. I'd probably pick them all up.

I'd really love Oracle, but I doubt it'd happen.

[Snowflakian]

I hope they at least make Arkham Knight himself. Harley Quinn and Cat Woman would rock too. Other than that, unless they make a decent Batman there too, I'd like to see them cover other DC heroes already from the Nu52 like Red Robin, Nightwing, Supergirl, Raven, Wondergirl, Kid Flash, Flash, Wonder Woman, and Green Lantern.

Hope the next "movie" wave they do starts doing modern features or tv series. I'd love to have Green Arrow, Black Canary, and Deathstroke from Arrow. Not to mention Flash and Zoom from that new series. They also better make decent representations and articulated figures of the new Batman Superman flick including Wonder Woman.

It'd be nice to finally start rounding out the DC end of my live action shelf and start adding more good representations of DC characters to my comic character shelf(so far only got Azrael for DC on there).

[Kernel]

That is a great looking red hood snake.
I would probably buy any new characters they make, but I would love if we could get some good 3.75" figures from the dark knight trilogy, or any "comic series" figs.

Arkham Knight himself would definitely be great - not only because it's a cool design, but also because it'd be extremely easy to get a Red Hood custom out of him too.

That's exactly what I've been hoping for since the SDCC batmobile was shown off. Rip the lights and electronics out, and maybe exclude the Batman figure as long as the next one they release has a cloth cape too. Get it down to $30 at least, preferably $25 or so.

Thank ye kindly.

There's just something about this DC Multiverse line. I don't really know how to describe it.

Wave 1 is comprised of figures from a video game that debuted in 2011 and then another in 2013.

Wave 2 is built around figures from movies that spread across the 80s and 90s.

There's no set path. No apparent boundaries. This both excites and terrifies me.

Yup. I mean, I believe they said at one point that they don't have any plans to do comic based toys, but it seems like everything else is fair game - which is cool.

TV series action figures are probably what I'm most hoping for at the moment. Arrow and Flash especially, and maybe even a John Constantine as well. Those would all be nice.

DEFINITELY!

Also I might be the only one but Id LOVE a 3.75" Cesar Romero Joker in my collection (and a Frank Gorshin Riddler too!)

I can see them doing a Batman The Animated series line sometime in the future if the line is successful - and what I wouldnt give for a detailed,articulated Man of Steel Zod and Supes.

[Poison Shadow]

My absolute ideal Multiverse wave would be Young Justice. Robin (Dick or Tim), Kid Flash (with trophies, dammit!), Artemis, Aqualad. I don't necessarily need the whole team, just a couple of my favorites. Villain-wise, Sportsmaster, Cheshire, and Vandal Savage would be cool.

It'll never happen though, considering the fact that the actual YJ toyline was a failure and the show is long-gone.

[thewriteguy]

A wave of six figures of costumed characters from Arrow and The Flash TV series would make a lot of sense. Arrow, Deathstroke and Flash are already obvious for this multiverse line treatment.

[thewriteguy]

I am wondering if we should put together a petition or send email to Mattel suggesting and requesting that they offer a lower-priced version of the Arkham Knight Batmobile. Maybe they already plan to do this, but it may be helpful to suggest this to them which would affirm that there's demand for such an Arkham Knight Batmobile.
