I don't disagree with the setbacks you list. My feeling is that Mattel has run out of DC movies and TV shows to mine from: Batman 66, Smallville, and the classic Superman movies after Superman 2, for example, are not popular enough for them to bother with, I feel.

A wave that features Batman, Superman and WW from BvS would give adult collectors more sophisticated versions of these figures over the upcoming toyline for kids in 2016. The question is if WB would sign off on this, allow for preview-figures of these characters to come out several months before BvS is released in theaters.

Arrow, Flash and Selena would together represent the three popular DC TV shows currently on the air. Previous waves have been based on the most popular movies (Batman, Batman Returns, Superman 2). There has not been a wave yet based on TV series, so maybe the next MV wave will have some.
