I meantiond Golden Pharoah to a 40 year DC Comic fan and he never even heard of him, where as CMIII is pretty well known. I think even wave 19's Magog is fairly obscure unless you read Kingdome Come.

On the contrary, Magog was a relatively high profile character up through Brightest Day. He had his own 12 issue series in 2009/2010, was featured in the Justice Society books, and popped up here and there elsewhere as well. Not top tier, but he's been spotlighted in recent years.

It seemed like DCUC had finally caught up with the backlog of the bazillion must-have characters enough that they could actually focus on recent comic event stuff, like all the Lantern figures they've been doing. That may be why they're transitioning to All Stars, so they can continue that pattern.

Someone mentioned Captain Marvel Jr.... he's just about the only other semi-major character I can imagine them doing using the base sculpt they'd need to do a Damien Wayne Robin. There really aren't many preteen heroes/villains in the DCU, are there?
