Thread: So what is the last DC retro Figure?

  1. #1

    So what is the last DC retro Figure?

    Are the green lanturns the last thing we will see from DC retro action then? I don't know if this has been answered before or not, since the thread about the end is gone.

    That could prove to be an interesting question. Technically there was one more wave for 2011 and Mattel did state the scheduled releases for 2011 would finish out the line. I think Paul and Joe were caught off guard by Mattel's release of this news, so they may not know if these last prototypes were going to be produced or not. They could be in the process of finding that out. Let's keep our fingers crossed. Maybe those will still get made. If not, I hope the heads from those figures can be cast and sold on Doc's website.
    It's not how hard you hit, but how hard you can be hit and still move forward.

    There is at least a possibility of another wave, at least how I understand things.

    No they can't

    The heads, outfits, and accessories from Mattel Retro Action will not
    ever be sold on drmego.com - that was work paid for by Mattel and,
    as such, is their property.

    Thanks Paul. Can you clarify whether we still get that last wave based on the prototypes you mentioned, or is Kyle Rayner in fact the last offering? Thank you again for all the hard work. It was greatly appreciated.

    Oh please at least let us get Hawkman to finish the major players in the JLA and Robin to go with Batman and Joker simply because he is the #1 foe in DC history. I mean can't we just get one more wave with these 3 and maybe Supergirl?

    I have to add I think the character picks for early waves is what helped to kill this line. Less foes and more heroes would have been better. You can't pack too many less known characters into one wave and expect it to do well. Wave 4 was the make it-break it wave IMO and only the big gun was Shazam. This was doom. Robin and Joker in wave 4 would have saved the line. I strongly believe that. I'm hoping we can save this line still. Hope is all we got now.

    Robin and Joker are must haves. Hawkman would be nice.

    I can't believe the line is ending. It was just getting REALLY good.
