Nope, no one knows yet, except for Mattel of course

what the heck happened to batman? belt to small,and hes wearing a thong, cowl looks like a toy helmet I had as a child, does anyone remember it? it came out in the 60's when the west series came out.

Ideal produced the Bat-helmet you're thinking of...

And, I really wish Black Manta's suit wasn't so black. I mean I know Black is in his name but it was a dark blue on Challenge.

Personally, I'm glad Challenge isn't being used as a primary model source.

In 8 years, I have successfully added someone to my ignore list for the first time.
Carry on.

Yeah, I think I'm with Chad on this one. It's starting to sound like a vuvuzela - one long, and increasingly annoying, note with nothing behind it but a lot of hot air - sound and fury, signifying nothing.

Oh well, someone had to be first on the list, I suppose...

BTW, I've already preordered a full set and a full case. Oh yeah, Wave 2! Bring it!

Wave 2 is a gem! Plus I'll like to officially cast my vote for the RM Batman. To each their own... Now more waves please!!!

so dumb question, but Flynne - where'd ya pre order from?
For Wave 1, I pre-ordered from some shop I found on Amazon. Price was a few bucks more than I wanted to pay.

That's not a dumb question at all. I preordered a set from Amok Time for $79.99 + Shipping (WGSH Series 2 Set of 4) and then a case from Entertainment Earth for $185 + shipping (DC Universe Retro-Action Wave 2 Case - Mattel - DC Comics - Action Figures at Entertainment Earth ) because they were the only preorders I could find at the time selling a sealed case. It's same way I ordered Wave 1 and it worked pretty well for me.

I like 'em. I like the Batman. It does remind me of the Ideal helmet, which I like, and it looks Super Friend-ly as well. I have tons of angry, grim Dark Knight-ish Batmen. A cool Caped Crusader Batman is fine with me. I bet a painted cowl Batman comes later. Mattel likes to keep Supes and Bats on the pegs.

The accessories are a nice touch, and something Mego rarely gave us.

The pink cards...the nostalgia factor is awesome. But I've always lamented Batman being stuck with pink, so my feelings are mixed. I like the Dick Giordano Aquaman on the back. From the Sunbeam sticker set!!!

I totally agree. The grim and gritty Dark Knight Batman has been done to death. This figure is like a breath of fresh air in a sea of black armored grimacing Batmans. I haven't liked a Batman figure this much since Super Powers.

My least favorite figure in the wave is Two Face. I think the figure is brilliantly done. Just never that fond of the character. I would have personally much preferred the Joker, Riddler or Penguin before getting Two Face.

I am very much looking forward to picking up all four of 'em, especially the Batman and Black Manta figures.
