    Superman Wave 2 up for pre-order

    FTC and CTVT have the 2nd Superman wave up for pre-order, with an estimated January delivery.

    Jimmy looks great---his head looks like it is in scale; can't wait to get him: I've already got a signal watch ready for him!

    I'll probably get Lois as well---she fits in nicely with the Mego gals.

    Clark I already have; Perry is a maybe.

    Sorry, but without the packaging, I would have no idea that is Perry White! Not a good sign....kind of a wasted figure in my opinion.

        Hmmmm... I like Jimmy, Lois looks good too, not sure I love the eyes, but they are Megosque I suppose. Perry needs some white in his hair and a cigar! I'll pass on Clark only because I have a custom already. Pretty good looking series. An all civilian wave is an interesting choice, but I for one will be happy to have these in my collection!

          I think Perry would look more authentic if he was gray at the temples. That's an easy fix though.

          Lots of possibilities for Jimmy variants: Elastic Lad, Wolf Boy, Alien, etc.

            Why release Perry like that? The hair detailing is traditional and in fact pictured on FTC clip art. I hope it's a slip-up on the prototype. I like the wave otherwise.
            WANTED: Dick Grayson SI trousers; gray AJ Mustang horse; vintage RC Batman (Bruce Wayne) head; minty Wolfman tights; mint Black Knight sword; minty Launcelot boots; Lion Rock (pale) Dracula & Mummy heads; Lion Rock Franky squared boots; Wayne Foundation blue furniture; Flash Gordon/Ming (10") unbroken holsters; CHiPs gloved arms; POTA T2 tan body; CTVT/vintage Friar Tuck robes, BBP TZ Burgess Meredith glasses.

              Yes, I've wanted these since the figures were shown back in March, but they were originally due Summer. The figures look the same so why the delay to January?

              I've wanted Clark since 1974 when I was 4 and he is a good repro. Lois and Jimmy are nice, too, but Perry needs a jacket or vest at least. And white temples.

              This has me worried we'll only get FTC Santa Claus figure himself in time for Christmas.

              Ra's Al Ghul has been shown but will Batman wave 4 make it in 2015? Super Friends 1? When will New Teen Titans figures be shown? Scooby Doo? Hanna Barbara?

              I even wanted to give the Monkees to my sister for Christmas or her birthday 2 days later!

              Christmas has always been best time for Megos!

                Stepford Lois? I thought she'd have the new high heel shoes, too. I'll get Jimmy when the wave gets the loose bagged treatment.

                  They look fantastic and as a huge fan of silver age Superman these are a must have.

                        That was the first thing I noticed, too. All in all, a great series but putting her out with those shoes is just lazy. Black Glinda/Dinah shoes would have been much better than what she is wearing! Witch shoes? Really? And after receiving my series 4 Batman figures with Bookworm and Alfred, I KNOW they could have put better glasses on CK. Easy fixes though.

                          I'd like to see Glinda shoes in better plastic and other color options. They would outclass the WW shoes by a mile.

                          I just hope that the HP female shoes are differen than the WW or I will hav a fit.

                              Once Clark is in my hands Figures will have accurately released every original DC mego. Isis aside. Congratulations FTC

                              Everything else is gravy.

                              I'm cool with everything else pushed back, till after Christmas. Maybe an 18 inch Superman will be under the tree now.
