First, I'm not talking about the 2-packs, those are an obvious trainwreck this time, I am talking about the WGSH figures:
Batman Wave 1 - Tight bodies, Batman, Robin, Joker and Riddler
Batman Wave 2 - Tight bodies, Bruce Wayne, Dick Grayson, Catwoman and Penguin. Terrible wave given the body issues and character selection.
Batman Wave 3 - Bodies are fixed, Batman with RC cowl and vinyl cape, Robin with removable mask, Batgirl and Alfred. Really think they nailed this wave, the bodies were great and the character selection was amazing. Love the vinyl cape on Batman although I can see how the purists would object. But if they did it's easy to switch the cape with the Batman from Wave 1 and keep it in line with the original. Batgirl's missing neck and Alfred's big ole noggin didn't bother me at all.
Superman Wave 1 - Superman, Supergirl, Bizarro and Mxp. Love the character selection. The figures are pretty good, there's a few minor issues for me, I think the Superman head sculpt is slightly off, as are the capes. But I love the Supergirl and Bizarro figures.
Overall, I think Batman Wave 3 is my favorite so far, with Superman Wave 1 just a notch below. But both waves are much better than the first two Batman Waves, I think the 2nd Batman wave will definitely be warming pegs (as it were) for a while. As a whole these show that the process is improving as are the figures.
Batman Wave 3 or Superman Wave 1, which one do you think is better? Ovenmitt? MIB? And not interested in rehashing complaints or turning this into a bash thread, just curious which wave was your favorite.
