McFarlane doing Super Powers?

[monitor_ep]

Not happy they went with Super Friends Sinestro instead of Yellow Lantern Sinestro. I'll pick up GL Hal anytime so can find him. That is a great base GL figure. I will pick up one Sinestro just to add to the lineup but the rest I could careless about.

They are really milking the Batman, Superman and Flash molds. GL and Sinistro are must haves though.

Wave 5 goes up for pre order today. Hal Jordan is a straight redo of the original like the last batman was.

[powersthatbe]

I also saw Kilowog listed( and if he does that would be a new body buck for characters like Kaliba.Very excited to see Blue Beetle,The Bug and Briainiac's Skull ship in the line ups.) I hope Todd really takes advantage of the 40th SP anniversary.)

There have been some rumors about the new few waves so why not talk about them:

WAVE 6:
Batman (TRU gold version)
Justice Lord Superman
Green Lantern Hal Jordon
Flash (Gold version: maybe the Wally West version)
Batman of Zur Enn Arrh

WAVE 7:
Blue Bettle (Ted Kord)
Brainiac (shorts version)
Green Lantern Kilowog
Yellow Lantern Sinestro
Superman (Gold version)
Batman (Manga version)

Blue Bettle's Bug Ship
Brainiac Skull Ship

My local Walmart got in both the Batmobile and Invisible Plane after I picked them up out of town.

Still no new figures.

[B-Lister]

I need Robin.

Picked up an Invisible Jet today, and finally a Wonder Woman to go with it. No sign of any of the new figures yet though.

The only figs they had were WW, Deathstroke, John Stewart, Batman Who Laughs and Nightwing. Flash from the John Stewart wave hasn't been seen in the stores around here for a while, but those 5 have been ubiquitous, though WW is sold out at one of the stories but plentiful at the other. Both stores here also reduced drastically the number of pegs for the Super Powers figures going into the holiday season. They used to have 6-8 pegs, now they are down to 3 and the pegs have been given to anime based action figures for the holiday season, so there's a chance the new wave won't make it out until some of the old figs sell or get put on clearance as well, as our Wallyworld's don't seen to restock until the pegs are empty even if they have them in the stockroom.

Walmart's website is showing me that my local store also has the new vehicles in stock, but none of the new figures. So you must be right about them wanting to get rid of the old waves first. That's disappointing. i really want the Black Manta figure, and it's been such a long wait already. Seems like the Nightwing wave hit stores ages ago.

My local Walmart got in the Batmobile but no new figures.

Found a Batwing for $5 at my local Walmart today when I was for the Vision Center. It was the last one they had. No Supermobiles, but they did have the Batmoblile & Invisible Jet in the toy aisle.

That's a fantastic bargain you found on the Batwing. Especially in light of the great care I took with the canopy on the one I purchased...only to see it immediately make a "crunch" sound where it hinges.

I shook the broken piece out of the opening and got the canopy to go back in place and close.......with Batman inside.
