          I would love to see a new female body used for these.

          We have yet to see any '66 females. Maybe it's because they plan to debut a new female body?

            Very pleased, and a big, pleasant surprise about the choice of villain. As far as I know, Silver Swan has never had an action figure, not even through DC Collectibles, so she's a welcome addition to the 8" roster. Perhaps she's due for a revival of sorts, having just made a sort-of TV debut in the WW TV series based comic.

            A good wave with good choices, but the head sculpts are going to make or break it. I doubt WW will be in pajamas this time around, so the head will be setting on a body likely bare at the shoulders; an oversized head, even a little too big, is going to completely sink the figure. Of all the figures they've made, I really hope these heads are correct, as they would be the first new sculpts for the Mego DC gals we've seen, and they can count on multiple purchases from me just for the new heads if they are the right size.

            This could become one of my favorite new lines from FTC if it is done right; I REALLY want to see the prototypes.

                Glad they went with a new vileness (with Cheetah already existing from the Dc Retro waves) glad they went with a New character First.

                I second this... It is high time that a new female body be used for these figures, The old Mego type bodies are no longer doing these female figures Justice.

                And to add... Aside from the New Head Sculpts... PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD DO NOT MAKE THE SAME MISTAKE AND STOP SILK SCREENING THE BOOTS!

                    I'd personally like to see them do an 8" version of Nubia!
                    She was the only one from the 12" line I wanted...
                    I'll pick up the Silver Swan so long as she looks good
                    (ie., no Daisy Duke Monstrosity head)

                      This sounds promising, I just hope the body and sculpts are upgraded.

                          I agree with the Daisy Duke monstrosity.

                          They unfortunately made it resemble the Famous Covers figures, and I remember their Black Widow looking like she was severely constipated.

                          Daisy looks like she had too much Botox.

                            Daisy Duke is a MONSTEROUSLY ugly figure!!!!!!!!!!!!! The head is warped,the wrong size,massive forehead and a nasty body too boot! The shorts look so rated xxxx that she just needs to KEEP it covered. I hope they make a whole NEW female body because FTC CANNOT make female bodies at all.

                              I like the FTC 12" Daisy Duke head looks like Catherine Bach and LONG brown hair! Good buy for $50!
