Choose up to 15. We'll make the top 10 for the Club this year.

Mattel has said multiple times now they cannot release an entire list because they have not finalized all choices with DC. Only the four figures announced from DC got approval -- Mattel probably has figures they want but DC has not given them the ok yet so it severly limits what they can show us.

Same reason why there is no voting other than the oversized figure -- what if the winning figure is something DC won't allow Mattel to make? And DC has only given approval for the four figures released, so a poll is out of the question.

The problem with your suggestions is that right now, the list of every unmade character they can make is Jay Garrick, Starman, Poison Ivy and Atrocitus. DC probably won't talk to them about others until this is a done deal.

Mattel isn't really giving up if the sub doesn't pull through -- chances are, this is the only way they could get these figures made, as the rumor is that DC is dictating what Mattel should do with the license, such as stop putting out obscure characters and focus on the big guns in the reboot settings.
