    Strange that Scarecrow is not pictured on the back of the 2-Pack cards with the lineup of other characters.

      They've never gave a firmer date than later this year. IMO if we get it before the end of Summer I'll be very surprised. GA is probably the figure I am most looking forward to.

        when you guys say series or wave 4 you mean batman wave 4 right?

        Pretty sure these will not be the next set after titans, or the set after that. But I guess we will see
        Yeah I'd wager these are about 6 months out. Seems like we're about a week or 2 away from Batman 66, then likely Titans around Memorial Day, then......? Maybe the first Superman wave? Beginning to look like the first wave after the Titans might not hit till July or August. Batman Wave 4 could easily be a Christmas purchase.

        EDIT: Forget Batman Wave 3 likely after the Titans. It's entirely possible that we don't get Batman Wave 3 till July.

          maybe it's just the angle, but the Ras sculpt looks like it was pulled from the mold too early. It looks slightly misshapen to me.
          Fresh, not from concentrate.

            Glad somebody else mentioned it, I was beginning to wonder if it was just me. It looks really promising, so hoping it is just something minor like that.

                I've got no problem with the way Ra's looks. Don't know how else you would give him a "Mego" type of look. Even the animated version is pretty close to how that head sculpt is.

                  I was sure I was only going to collect Batman 66 figures, but as good as these sculpts are I might work in some of these bad guys that didn't make it on the show or weren't even around yet, I could mod some to fit how they look in the new comic, if you haven't checked out the Batman 66 book yet do it it's REAL good!

                      Likely just an uneven neck plug causing it to lean just enough to the left to notice. The head sculpt itself looks wonderful.

                        Always loved the cover to Batman 296. Hope that's what Scarecrow's costume looks like.

                          I have some moderate misgivings about the Scarecrow, both in deco and design--not the style per se, but the level of detail. That said, I'm relieved it's not a Hanna-Barbara version.

                          I do think, though, that both these heads will likely top nice figures.

                              I really love these two headsculpts. I didn't realize how different we all define Megos. Good to be part of such a strong community with heart. The comic covers reminded me that I NEED a reMEGO Chronos!! He is the perfect character for figure.

                                I think they look great. And when you look at the original Mego line-up there was a definite progression in detail/realism in the sculpts. Just put a Supergirl head up against an Invisible Girl or a Batman up against Thor and you will see the difference. I think if the Mego line would have continued, we would have seen more and more realistic sculpts and more and more detail in the costuming. My bigger concern is the fact that FTC seems intent on sucking every last dollar out of my wallet with these great figures!
