McFarlane doing Super Powers?

[MRP]

My wife is on vacation this week and we took a ride out to visit the in-laws this afternoon, about an hour away. There's one Walmart on the way and another, plus a Game Stop, in the town they live. We stopped at all 3. No luck at the first Walmart. At the Game Stop I found a Knightfall Robin and Yellow Sinestro. At the Walmart in their town, I found a Kilowog and they had a bunch of the Batwing vehicle on clearance for $5, so I picked up one (I had one already, but couldn't pass one for $5). I saw plenty of Beetles, Braniacs and Manga Batman at both Walmarts, but no luck finding a Bug ship. The clerk at Game Stop mentioned he saw one at the Game Stop branch like 40 minutes past where my in-laws lived, but we weren't driving out there to get it.

My wife emailed me to let me know my shipment from McFarlane FINALLY arrived. I was a bit worried, as the exclusive Panic in the Sky Brainiac and ship set are going for insane amounts on ebay right now.

Snapped some pics of the Bug, Beetle and Kilowog for fun. Still deciding whether to open the exclusive Brainiac ship since I got the regular one too.

I was hoping Fleischer Superman would at least get a new, Shuster-esque head. But not surprised. I am stoked for Booster and Guy. The Booster body could probably be used by McFarlane to make a classic Nightwing.

I appreciate your post mixing the vintage and new SP figures, they coordinate well.

NIce also to see the new wave--just Booster and Black Manta for me.

Disco Nightwing is a good variant idea but seems a longshot. The torso might serve for Deadman, though.

Closer look new lineup:

Cool to see Booster confirmed, even though we all expected it based on the pictures on the Bug Box. I could do with more new characters and less Batman and Superman repaints/variants, but those figures sell and anchor waves, so I'll live with them.

Batman is eh, but Booster Gold and Superman look great.

I found a Bug today!!! Half Price Books had their Memorial Day Big Sale and I was there book and comic shopping, but there is a Wal Mart in the same shopping plaza, so I decided to poke my head in and check for any Super Powers or Megos since it is a couple towns over and I don't get there often, and they had 2 Bugs on the shelf. I grabbed one for myself. They also had a gold Superman, Kilowog, Manga Batman, Yellow Sinestro and Brainiac, but I passed on all that, having those I wanted and no interest in the Supes or Bats repaints.

The JSA looks interesting.

Never understood the gold variants.

Bizarro makes more since than the gold versions.

Riddler was needed since the only versions was a repaint Green Lantern or ToyBiz.
