    Is there anything they HAVENT done?

    Other than Batman TV likeness figures ( and a Lou Ferringo Hulk) I cant think of hardly any of my favorite characters that hasnt been made.

    I'd like to see a set of DC direct Comics style Watchmen but who knows whats up with Alan Moore ???

    They made Ash, Darkman, V for Vendetta, Rorchach, Flaming Carrot, Swamp Thing, Dr Who ( is there a Pertwee yet?), Movie Ming , Sherlock Holmes,Dark Crystal Chamberlain. Vincent Price, Henry Jones. Even Hostel had a couple of figures.

    (I'd like to see a Wes Craven Swamp Thing but I don't think Wes Craven even wants to see that)

    Ive seen some weird stuff at the GI Joe shows too. Hitler ( 2 versions) !! Alien characters in spacesuits, I cant believe I saw a Gentleman Ghost DC figure at Target! ( have they made the Guardian yet?) Kirk in the cool parka screaming Kahn! Electrawoman. The apes in Space suits. a 1/6 scale Lawgiver!

    So are there any characters NOT out there you are waiting on? ( And I don't just mean obscure supporting characters like Micheal Caine as Alfred)

    Sigh . . .

    Me, I'd love to see some really well done figures based on Gerry Anderson shows. Captain Scarlet, Thunderbirds and Stingray just to name a few.

      Most of my faves haven't been done, which is why I make my own.

            I always thought that KRULL would have produced a pretty cool toyline. You have quite a few heroes with swords, spears, and axes... then your army of evil slayer figures with spring loaded weapons.

            Large boxed creature sets, like the beast and the crystal spider. Small playsets like the swamp leading up to a massive one in the Black Fortress, complete with transforming hallways, spike traps, breakaway walls and floors, hidden compartments to fill with slayers...

            would have been awesome.

                  The Kirby New Gods figures didn't transition well to the figure Department..., and sales were no where Near what DC Direct had hoped. ... I doubt Marvel would even make an attempt, or anyone that Holds thier License at this time.... I was just at my Comicbook shop today..., and really wanted that Superman.., I forgot to pick him up.

                    When they did the Superfriends/Legion of Doom two packs I would have liked for them to finish even if they couldn't use the Hanna Barbera characters.

                        Mattel is producing The HB Superfriends as part of the JLU line, so DCDirect must be able to as well.
