For the "pick -5" I want:

Winter Soldier
Havok
Polaris
Psylocke(hopefully early 90's costume, that is the definitive version for me)
Archangel(MAN I hope the wings are accurate, NO ONE has got those wings right, EVER, on an action figure!)

I can't just pick 5 so I will need to vote twice.

WHAT? I like that version! Ditko horns FTW! As for belly shirt, you aren't talking about the modular(mouthless helmet FTW!) armor are you?

uberlad · 02-06-2009, 05:20 PM

there are too many awesome characters in that list!

2. winter soldier
3. luke cage
4. cannonball
5. havok
6. thunderbird
7. gwen stacy

Huh, that Atom-Smasher fig might well make me actually but something from Mattel without the assumption that I'll have to fix it up to make it worth having. Go, Mattel; surprise me. I dare ya.

/Double-dog dare ya, even.

I agree Chari.. what part of FL are you in? I'm in Tampa area. Would love to have a big CON anywhere in central Florida though.

Wow, nice to see DC COMPLETELY ignore the complaints about the huge hands...

It's been known since SDCC (when Hasbro showed off the MU protos and Mattel got thoroughly embarrased by their incompetence at 18th scale figs), that Mattel's gonna be bringing out a newly-articulated base body to do everyone with. It'll essentially be a VOTC SW body, retaining the same weak swivel hips both lines share. No mention of changing the hands, altho I'd assume they'll fix the monkey-fists issue since they said there will be swivel wrists.

Shin Densetsu · 02-06-2009, 10:48 PM

It puzzles me why Mattel is not implementing universal hip joints(4H Tcrotch), or ball jointed hips on their IH figures. Even Mezco uses ball hips on their 3-3/4" Hellboy figures!

DESTRO · 02-07-2009, 02:01 PM

New Images coming in from the show.

Because they don't want to break their 25-year streak of making subpar 18th scale figs?

Ktulu · 02-07-2009, 05:26 PM

Man that Hordak is a beauty

Ravenxl7 · 02-07-2009, 05:31 PM

I'm curious, which figures will I have to buy to get Chemo? I really want to get that guy, but I'm not really sure which of the wave 9 figures I'll need to get to finish him (since it seems there will be more in the wave that you'll need to get to finish him). Green Lantern and Wildcat look really good. Those two are the figures I'm looking forward to the most from this wave. Although they'll most likely be the first two I ever get from this particular toy line, lol.

Syn3sthesia · 02-07-2009, 05:36 PM

I'm loving where DCUC is going!!!

All of wave 9 except the A-lister, which I think is Green Arrow. You don't need the variants to complete the C&C figures.

Same here, now I hope I can find them much easier this year, as DCUC is notoriously hard to find!

Ok, so I'll have to get the Black Canary, Wildcat, Mantis, Guardian, Black Adam, and Deadshot figures, assuming the Green Arrow figure is the A-lister. Though I'll probably get him anyways, as I like his character, the figure looks awesome, and going off of the info here, the A-lister will have a base of some kind. Thanks for the help. I'm pretty new to this line.

No prob man.

I intend to buy Black Adam for sure. I've wanted a figure of him ever since reading Infinite Crisis.

"NO MORE FACES PSYCHO PIRATE!"

EPIC WIN.

The good thing about the new DCIH figures w/new articulation is the fact that they don't look drastically different from the existing figures. With that said however, I could do without that for a slightly larger size and more articulation. I'll be collecting DCUC instead. DCIH has a great concept, but there are far better comic based 3-3/4" lines out there.
