I saw them at Wal-Mart about less than 2 weeks ago, a few days before the G.I. Joe figures hit. I picked up Supes and Bats @ $9.96 each. They had The Flash too that day but I passed. I checked back the other day and they're already gone from the shelves!

Can anyone pick up the aquaman form me?

Vinnie,

Check Big Lots for Supes, Bats and Flash. So far, it looks like Aquaman has been found mostly online at TRU. com. Lex and GL are also showing up at Wal-Marts and TRU brick and mortar stores I believe.

I've seen them at most retail stores (TRU, Kmart, Target, Walmart & Big Lots). It already looks like they're beginning to sit. I've only seen Aquaman at TRU along with some of the vehicles and deluxe figures. Lex and GL were at Kmart. I've also seen about 3 versions of Batman. Don't forget to check the preschool aisles if you are looking for them, especially at TRU, most of the time these types of figures don't get put in the regular Action Figure aisle.

I picked up Batman, Supes, Lex Luthor and Green Lantern for my kids yesterday. They're pretty neat. They go very well with the Spider-Man & Friends line. The Batmobile was pretty cool, too.

BlackKnight

Aug 17, '07, 10:13 PM

I've scene them all, but the Aquaman... I picked up the Blue/Batman, had to.. All of Bat's vehicles are very neat too. I hope to also find an Aquaman. :please_y:

Anyhow,.. Check out a figure from wave2. :drool_y: MAN !! If they make a Green Arrow as well,.. I might have to get 2 more of 'em. :yes:

I guess Wave 2 is Hawkman, Cyborg, and 2 versions of Batman in Red and Blue (***?).
Already with repaint variations...???

Aug 17, '07, 11:39 PM

Yeah i seen all the Batman variations.I think its ridiculous already

BlackKnight

Aug 18, '07, 12:35 AM

Thats it for wave 2 ? "sigh" :ugh_y: I was so hoping for an Arrow... However the first wave did have 6or7 figures,.. so with a little luck, that won't be all. :yeah:

The Toyroom

Aug 18, '07, 7:58 AM

What Batman variations are there in Wave 1? I've only seen a Blue Smiling Bats...

Earth 2 Chris

Aug 18, '07, 8:18 AM

There are 4 regular (non-deluxe) Batmen right now. Blue/gray (the most common), black/gray, all black, and blue/black. All of these variants actually make sense. It's a first for a toy company.:biggrin:

I found Flash, too. He's my oldest boy's favorite, so he's going to be excited. Hopefully, I'll find an Aquaman.

I'll take a look again, Vinny. So far, those guys have disappeared from shelves, for now.

I just saw a few at Target a few days ago (before I saw started reading this thread) and I only saw Supes, Luthor, and the Batmobile and I gotta say WOW! I was very impressed with the line, sucks about the variants though. Lex was awesome-lookin' though. I'll keep an eye out for Art for you Vin!

We picked up the Batmobile for our sons birthday, and also managed to find 2 Lexes, one for him, one for me.

Other than that, we've seen all Bat-variants, all Bat-vehicles, all-Bats/Supes deluxe figures, but no GL and no Aquaman of any kind.

Managed to grab Aquaman and Lex the other night at TRU...no sign of GL ...We passed on the Batman hang glider/Ultralight and Batman Offroad 4wheeler...Got the Batman Motorcycle and the Superman Space ship...So farall of the vehicles are reused molds from the Rescue Heroes except for the Batmobile. I plan to get a few of the used vehicles and resticker them for SuperHero use. They have a mountain command center that is just begging to be a Batcave...And a jet plane that is perfect for a Batplane..Hang on let me see if I can gind some pics to illustrate what I mean...

Blue jet on the right and blue helicopter on the left..these won't even need repaints LOL!

And further...the little ultralight plane on the top right has already been releasedas a Batvehicle a the hang-glider/ultralight I already mentioned. Identical but with different stickers and molded in black and grey...And the ebay lots of these go for pretty cheap...

From AFI's San Diego coverage and the Mattel DC panel. They're making a unique Batwing/Batplane.

I still think the missed a real opportunity to make Robin an exclusive figure with the Batmobile.

Chris

ScottA

Sep 5, '07, 1:58 PM

Sorry Vinny, he's mine :grin: But if I find another one...

It's interesting the different assortments of things everyone has seen. I've seen all the Bat-vehicles and the Batmobile, the Superman vehincles, Bats, Supes, Flash and that one Aquaman but still have not seen any of the Batman variants, GL or Lex. I'll have to pick up that Batmobile eventually. And I agree with Chris about the Robin idea.

Earth 2 Chris

Sep 5, '07, 2:03 PM

The car being a two seater BEGS for a Robin. My kid has already moved his 5" Teen Titans Robin over into this line. He works in really well, actually!

Seems like Toys R' Us is the only place the Bat-variants and the hang-glider/copter deluxe figure are showing up.

I found the two Lexes at Target, and the rest of our figures (Supes, blue Bats and Flash) at Big Lots.

Sep 5, '07, 2:09 PM

Nice Batwing/Plane...I think the green jet on the left would work for a Lex Luthor plane come to think of it...

Earth 2 Chris

Sep 5, '07, 2:12 PM

Hey Bill,

I read somewhere that the Batmobile was a reworked RH police car. Do they share any parts? They look pretty different from here.

I hope they do make a Batcave. I'd like to seem them "rocky" it up though.

This line looks awesome...yeah it might not have as many characters as the JLU line
and these have the "kiddie look" to 'em----
----but the figures seem really nicely done----& have a lot of character to 'em
and you can display them with the Marvel ones---that's REAL cool---
--and they won't topple over as easy as the JLU ones! :)

I found Aquaman for my son this weekend. First time I'd ever seen him. I'll probably get one later.

I haven't heard anything yet Dan, but they seem to be selling well.

Jan 11, '08, 10:38 AM

I got my godson all I found for X-mas which were: Aquaman, batman, superman and Flash, the batmobile and cycle too and I got him all the spidey friends and spidey house that are similar in style and size but couldn't find the other DC heros. I'm looking for hulk in the marvel line too as I found most of the marvel my godson likes but no hulk.

My Godson's Birthday is coming in April so I'll be looking for the sub too as he loves AM. If I find any extra's I'll let you guys know. I still need GL, LL, Hawkman and any others that they did that I didn't find him for xmas.

Earth 2 Chris

Jan 11, '08, 10:40 AM

Hawkman and Cyborg aren't out yet, to my knowledge.

For Spidey and Friends, check Meijers if you have them in you area.

Jan 11, '08, 1:42 PM

I was at Wal-mart today during lunch and saw the new My First Batwing. It looked really cool and is as big as the Batmobile. It does show Cyborg, Hawkman and the Aqua-Sub on the back of the box. They also had the new My First RC Batmobile. It looked cute as well. I've found everyone except Green Lantern so far.

Earth 2 Chris

Jan 11, '08, 2:11 PM

Ah, so we should be on the lookout for Hawman and Cyborg then. Very cool Scott!

Jan 11, '08, 10:30 PM

how much are the DC 3 packs of heros? Are they only sold at costco?

Thanks Chris for the info. No Majiers in my area, too bad I'd like to find the spidey friends that I didn't find for my godson for xmas as he loves both the dc and marvel figures.

I don't know if the 3 packs are still available at Costco. I haven't seen them in months. Glad I snagged one of each when they were available.

I so want Batman from this line. It's just so cute. lol.

I bought my son tons of the Rescue Heroes when they firt came out (my wife was actually pregnant when I got the first one). I thought SUperheroes would be great in this format. I got my boys Cap America and SPidey when they came out. I saw WOlvie and Hulk at Winners a few days ago. I almost bought Wolvie but I must get a blue Batman... for myself. ;P

I was in Buffalo last month, each Target I visited had 2 or more Aquasubs.

Sep 3, '08, 7:13 PM

Our Targets had the Aquasubs for awhile, but they disappeared. I grabbed one for junior and it's tucked safely away for either his birthday or Christmas. At the time it looked like there'd be plenty like the Batmobiles, so I didn't think to grab anymore.

Been on the lookout for Hawkman and Cyborg since I noticed them on ebay but no luck yet. Scored a Batmobile for $7.00 on clearence and an Aquasub when I first saw it. I need to get a Batwing though.

Earth 2 Chris

Sep 4, '08, 8:45 AM

Ooh. I'll be looking for those.

The Aquasub is truely a great toy.It actually WORKS which is more than I can say for many of Mattel's DC vehicles and play sets. Their first Batmobile from the 6" Batman line barely rolled, and it was recalled due to the sharp fins on the back. The Batman Batcave and JL Watchtower playsets both come with elevators that just won't work. But the Aquasub, now that is one FUN toy!!! Their Batmobile is also very cool!

Thats Pretty cool they packed it with Aquaman ,... I didn't have him either. :grin:

PNGwynne

Sep 9, '08, 6:03 PM

Is the Aquaman vehicle out yet? I would like to snag that and an Aquaman figure for my son.

I already picked up the Batmobile, a Batman, and a Superman for him. I have seen all of the Batman variations, Superman, a lot of Bats and Supes accessories, but no GL, Luthor, Flash, or Aquaman yet.

I got the Aquaman shark-sub a few weeks ago at Target--very nice! And it comes with a variant Aquaman. Sweet!

(I'm thinking a Mego Aquaman might fit in it as well:grin:)
