    I asked FTC about this and they stated that they do not yet have an ETA.

    Lois looks like they are either using the Jane head with dark hair and bangs, or one of their generic girl heads with bangs. Either way, it looks to be a bit on the large side. But at this point, I'm pretty much beyond caring about talking to or emailing or messaging FTC about it. They've said that they are working on it, but so far, there have been zero results.

    I'll be getting her anyway, though. There should be more females in the action figure market, and I am not just talking about the Sideshow, or Enterbay lines.

        That's a cool Supes arch villians set, I'm working on Parasite and Terra-Man this summer, along with
        Trek (TNG) customs, many ideas, but when to find the time?

              I've asked them more than once on their Facebook page and have gotten zip for an answer.

                I love the lineup and would buy them all. I like the comic Zod but there is something about that Mego Superman version that makes me want that sersion along with the Mego Jor-El.

                  Your complimentary words are appreciated (as well as tjac's & Underdog's). The custom work is mostly almitysufx's and took quite a while to assemble.

                  I sold a few of my DC customs a few years back, but kept the majority of them----I don't think I sold even one villain as they are the figures I valued the most and thought were harder to replace.

                  Recently, I replaced a fantastic megojim Bizarro, not because I thought FTC's was definitively better, but there really IS something that "gets" me with a factory-made figure. FTC's Bizarro is a bit "noggin-extreme", but it's still very much a version I can live with---and it's "factory finish" is indeed pretty satisfying, thus taking the custom Bizarro's place on my shelf as seen in that pic.

                  My thoughts are that if FTC basically released all customs I've had in my collection, they'd be doing right by DC WGSH fans. I'm firmly of the mind that FTC should attempt all the "bigger" characters from DC---specifically from the Mego-era-- reaching the lower-tier characters from that era eventually, hopefully.

                  I think that the Mego design would be what the majority would want, as it's more nostalgic/Megoey than comicbook Zod.

                  Personally, I went with comicbook Zod for consistency's sake---and, also, I thought to myself "You rarely see this version in people's collections." so that helped push me in that direction too.

                    I've always found them very vague when answering any questions.

                      Superman Series 2 was announced in March and all 4 figures were shown! Forget pre-order, why aren't these available to buy, yet? *Perry White did need a jacket or vest, though. "Great Caesar's Ghost!"
