FTC Superman a go!

[monitor_ep]

I just got confirmation that the fourth figure is Mxy and he will be on a child size body. So here is Superman wave one:
*Superman
*Clark Kent (a figure you could buy at anytime on CTVT)
*Supergirl
*Mxy (new figure)

I really don't see the need to buy an exact reproduction of a figure I already have.

I have an original Mego Batman and Robin. I have an original Mego Superman.

I may get the 66 Batman and Robin because they show a good improvement over the original Megos. But unless they do a Christopher Reeve version of Superman, I really don't see the point. I'd also like to see a Lynda Carter Wonder Woman.

If they did a specially packaged version that included the secret identity clothes and an improved removable mask, I'd be tempted. For now, I'm probably going to wait until I see figures that I haven't already seen before I pull the trigger on starting a new collection. I've seen Myx. I've seen Lex now from Matel. Show me a Metallo figure with a metal painted body. Maybe a Braniac that doesn't look lame.

I guess I've also lost a LOT of trust in starting to collect new lines and then have them cancelled just as I really get excited about them.

And my own worst Mego Pet Peeve? Why the hell does Batman not come with a batarang? Why isn't there a Mego scale utility belt that has a clip on batarang on the back? It generally ****es me off.

Thanks for confirmation! My dream Superman wave! New Mxyzptlk! Will he have Mego head 2nd version?

That leaves Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Green Arrow, and Shazam as remaining original Mego DC figures left, will they be in a wave together?

Who did you get confirmation from?

[ovenmitt]

and is FTC acquiring any NEW licenses? Still hoping for Marvel!

[monitor_ep]

From FTC.

[ovenmitt]

What other FTC news can you share?

[drogge]

So is Superman going to be like Batman, in the sense we get several assorted series? That would actually be great there several great characters to release like Brainiac, Metallo, Bizarro, and Lois Lane, and so much more....

[dr_cyclops]

From FTC.

That's what I thought you meant when you said "you got confirmation".
This is wonderful news! "Mr. Mxyzptlk", as he should have been done. I hope he has purple gloved hands and plastic boots. Wow, this is a great call on FTC part!

Good grief, I hope not--that'd be a waste of a lot of potential spin-offs if they crammed the rest into one wave.

[Megotu]

Well Aquaman could have HIS wave...
Artie, Aqualad as a full size like Robin, Mera, and the jerk with the octopus hat.
Wonder Woman, Steve, Cheetah, and wonder Girl full size.
Captain Marvel, Mary Marvel, Capt Marvel Jr and Black Adam
Green Arrow, Speedy full size, Black Canary and ...I am drawing a blank on his villains...

[bobws]

Merlin ...Color all Green Arrow Black except his skin and you have Merlin.
Count Vertigo would be cool.

[monitor_ep]

This is just a "guess" on what I would like to see released:

Wonder Woman wave:
Wonder Woman, Steve Trevor, Nubia, Cheetah with hair

Shazam wave:
Captain Marvel, Mary Marvel, teen-size Captain Marvel Jr., Teen-size Sivana

Aquaman wave:
Aquaman, Mera, Ocean Master, Fisherman

Green Lantern Wave:
GL Hal Jordan, GL John Stewart, Sinestro, Star Sappire

Green Arrow wave:
Green Arrow, Red Arrow, Black Canary, Merlyn

I'd donate my left nut for a Solomon Grundy on a white Hulk body.
