    I'm sure Lex Luthor is in the pipeline, but I wonder what version they will do. Mad Scientist Lex? Super Powers Armour Lex? Super Friends Lex? I'm kind of rooting for Super Friends Lex.

        Oh man...Super friends Lex would be cool, but I'd REALLY like to see an armored Lex.

        Diamond select Spider-man hands. Long shot, I know...but ya never know..

          Tarzan is trademarked so the rights to use the name would have to be licensed.

            I would love to see a Tarzan 50th Anniversary figure.

                I hope in the Super Gals wave, they correct the FTC issue and use Wonder Woman's correct head, not Supergirl's.....

                I know it wouldn't be correct, but I'd love 8" scale Titans to go with og Robin...lol

                  Honestly, I think brick & mortar retail sales are secondary for these kinds of specialty releases (ditto for FTC, CTVT, etc). Most of the people who are buying these now are the same people who bought them in the 70s (i.e. us) as opposed to the children who actually go into toy departments nowadays. Target notoriously botched the original 2018 relaunch in a good amount of their locations, and I've yet to actually see a single 50th Anniversary figure at ANY Walmart despite them being available since November of last year. Which means they either never got there to begin with, or they sold out immediately. That's literally the opposite of a "peg-warmer". Much as I'd enjoy the experience of buying these at a retail store, I haven't had the opportunity to do so. That being said, I can just go to ZLC Collectibles and point/click/pay/done.

                    I've been dreaming of someone doing this. FTC, Mego, whoever.

                      No Super Friends Lex would be a huge missed opportunity.
                      You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...

                          I saw those pictures---great sculpts, but a bit more modern than I would prefer. I'm definitely getting Bizarro but I will switch his uniform to classic red and blue.

                            Is it okay to share the photo?

                              Very modern, un-mego like sculpts. Perhaps they are early versions? I can't see those fitting in well along side the current line up.

                                Agreed. Not a fan of modern versions of characters in the 50th line. Very out of place.
