Sign me up McF!!!....
The Bat Stuff for sure...

The "Bat-Wing" is really cool ;^)

[Superman]

Found Superman and Batman at a WalMart in Baton Rouge, LA. No sign of the Batwing or Supermobile. I'd post pics but can't due to the rather unusual rule that new members can't post images.

The site has been spam-attacked before by bot accounts that would just totally fill up threads. It's unfortunate for actual people who haven't passed the threshold but so far it seems to have worked against the bots.

I wonder what the chances are McFarlane will re-do the Batmobile...

On the one hand, you've got the new version of the Supermobile. On the other hand, a Batmobile would push past the $20 vehicle price point were it to include features like the other vehicles. On yet another hand, DC might ease up the reins a bit and let a Batman-free wave out if there was a Batman vehicle in its stead. On a fourth hand....

I fully expect some version of the Batmobile to drop, but it'll either be gimped to Hades and back (think Retro '66 Batmobile) or command a higher price, and I'm worried that the odds favor the former.

I want that new Super Powers Superman so bad! Where can I buy it? It’s not even available online anywhere. I want to buy retail of that. Getting the big three, Batman, Superman, and Wonder Woman.

The line seems to be a Walmart exclusive, which (judging by G.I. Joe) means McFarlane isn't allowed to say anything until Walmart gets off its butt and officially announces it/puts up orders through its Collectibles page. When? Who knows. Best bet ATM is trawling Walmarts that ignore street dates.

SMH. The closest that the Walmart search engine could find for me is McFarlane’s Austin Powers action figure. Dang it!

This reminds me how Marvel Legends Thor Love and Thunder came out in stores a few weeks too early and no one could find these figures online. What is street date? It’s been mentioned before about these Love and Thunder figures?

I haven't had any luck around me, but my friend (about 3 hours away) found 2 Batwings today by him. He scanned the barcode, but it doesn't come up at all on the app. So, if all else fails, I'll at least have a Batwing. I NEED this line.

[Raine24]

No luck in my area, either. I'm dying to get a couple Batwings so I can paint one black and plop it between the Toybiz and Kenner versions. I love that they brought back the scissor claw, that's my favorite part of the mostly goofy Toybiz release.

[SpasticPlastic]

I did find the Supermobile today. Nothing else.

[slim19722]

I found the Supermobile and it wasn't $19.99, but rather $29.99.

Damn you, ToyNewsI, you got me all pumped up over $20 vehicles and yet here we are.

I'm still waiting for these to show up locally, so holding out hope for a regional price difference being at play here, but these things don't strike me as worth $30. Don't get me wrong, I'll still pay that for stuff like the Batwing, but that means skipping Supermobile to stay in my budget.

[Thatannoyingguy]

Rumor in fwoosh forum mentioned that the Super Powers figures will be announced by the end of July. Hopefully I’ll be able to snag SP Supes and Bats online.

My friend paid $19.97 for the Batwing, but the Supermobile was $29.97.

Heard that, too, since Walmart does some "Collector Con" where they condense their toy exclusive announcements for the month and the manufacturers aren't able to really talk about them until the reveal. IIRC, the same thing happened with the 6" G.I. Joe Retro figures, where Hasbro said they didn't have any protos in hand to show off, literally hours before they appeared on shelves. Their terms are nuts, but hey, they're paying the bills that get these funky playthings made in the first place.

DOPE. I mean for the Batwing, that sucks for the Supermobile. And gives hope that more impressive vehicles could drop down the line thanks to the variable price point, like a new version of the Batmobile. Or playsets! Legion of Doom, Titans Tower, a Hall of Justice that doesn't totally suck ass (sorry, Super Powers fans, but the Hall of Justice really did suck ass, that was some Play-Doh level shit through and through) or finally getting the Tower of Darkness after all these years?

I'm in for....

Bat and A Batwing ;^)

If they’re up on Walmart.com, then we should be able to see which stores have them using Brick Seek. In my experience, stores that show inventory of 6+ are most likely to have them.

Thank you for posting! I'd been searching the website daily.

[Raine24]

Walmart links are a step closer to working this morning, giving you an Out of Stock message after you go to your cart or click "Buy now". Still no John Stewart listing, but he's been seen in the wild!



Can I just say that I despise how Walmart's site gets even less usable when you're signed in? Every other time I refresh (or leave a tab open in the background for more than a minute) it makes me verify I'm not a bot. I loathe sites that punish you for trying to use them, kinda how Twitter would be a dumpster fire even without the userbase, you know?

Really, no Wonder Woman yet???

John has been spoiled.

Looks like the new McFarlane leak is incomplete, because Wonder Woman!




Clearly a test figure what with the unpainted joints and (I'm assuming) lack of skirt, but hey hey, I'll take what I can get when it comes to getting some women in the line. Or any of the lines. There's also a very Toy Biz-y Reverse Flash in the mix:

About damn time they gave us a near classic Wonder Woman.
