Superfriends Blister Card Concepts from Figures Toy Company

[PNGwynne]

I like these cards! Looking forward to these variants, and some (say perhaps Brainiac, Black Manta) will serve in any assortment,

Speaking of [I]Black[I] Manta, this editing of his name is confusing and vaguely ridiculous--unless FTC plans on releasing the olive-suited version, which the card does not indicate.

* Black Manta, race undefined, first appeared in comics in September '67, and shortly thereafter in the Aquaman cartoon.
* He was self-revealed as a black militant underwater terrorist in Adventure Comics #452 (July '77)
* He appeared in SF as "Manta" in a brownish suit, in September and October '77 shorts, but these episodes would likely have been animated before the Adventure Comics reveal.
* He was a charter member of the Legion of Doom as classic "Black Manta" in SF episodes starting in September '78.
* He has been featured in many recent toys, collectibles, comics, and toons as Black Manta, including Young Justice, Batman: the Brave & the Bold, DCU Classics, and Mattel Retro-Action.

So, what's the problem/confusion, FTC?

I'm wondering if "Manta" is a designate for the SF license and "Black Manta" is for the standard DC Heroes.

And considering Austin's customs are practically the blueprint for this line, then yeah, an olive Manta would make an easy exclusive.

I LOVE IT! Hall of Hustice and Hall of Doom (Darth Vader's helmet!)! 2 landmark locations in Super Friends universe!

And Alex Toth character models! We've seen Apache Chief figure, hope others turn out just as good!

*1 quibble- WHERE are Wonder Woman's BRACELETS?! That's a mistake Hanna Barbara made in 1st 2 season SF openers! Wonder Woman is SF figure I am most worried about! Sure I'd like ROOTED hair, but she better NOT have CLOTH bodysuit like Mego!

Totally agree, they nailed it in that regard. I *am* going to suggest they tweak out the hint of GL camel toe.

Prude.

These look great and I love the fact that their showing Hal Jordan's card already. I hope they add Green Arrow and Plasticman from SF season 1

[Teemu]

[TomStrong]

Gosh, I think I'm looking more forward to these than anything else. What a great time to love Megos!

[huedell]

Those look awesome!

Let the complaining begin......

I disagree that people will start complaining!





That Scarecrow card looks awesome!

I went back & re-edited this post because I just noticed this was my 10,000th post!

Cheers to all!

My only complaint is that I wan't these now! I really like Apache Chief, Zan, Samuri and Superman is O.K. I can't wait to see Hal Jordan

Saturday morning come to life! WTG FTC!

[supes]

Is that series 7, 9, or ? on card?

I think it is a ?

[likewow]

These look great, I will buy them all!

[Iron Mego]

So the scarecrow we saw a prototype for is part of this line? I thought it was for the Batman line? Will the same one be packaged in both lines or where there be two scarecrows with different sculpts?

The head sculpt that we saw awhile back was for the Batman line, not for this one. Looks like there will be two different Scarecrows.

[wise guy]

I hope that there is a differant sculpt for Bizarro and Riddler too and don't forget a Hall of Doom playset
