    I'm voting & hoping for the Mr. Freeze from Batman #308 era. Besides, it's the one in that line-up of samples that falls into the Mego era of 1979 which could kinda keep things with the whole retro-Mego-stylings-thingy which I think would be really cool.

      Capt. Cold should sue '79 Mr. Freeze, though lol. Great art, Paul--thanks for posting.

        I want a SP Freeze on a SP card. I'm honestly a bit disappointed that Batman didn't get a new SP style head.
        You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...

          Amok Time has both series 1 and 2 up for pre-order @ $99 each. So, that breaks down to a more palpable price of 25 bucks each.

          At that price, I'll bite. Since I don't care for the Fist Fighting gimmick, there's no way I'm paying an extra 5 bucks each. Preferably, I'd like to see the new figures (Superman, Shazam, Aquaman, Green Arrow) re-released on the standard bodies, but that's just me.

          Mostly, though, I'm just happy to see some non-Batman DC characters!

                these look great. will the new characters only be on FF bodies or will they release Aquaman and Shazam on standard bodies too? I am sure they will to get the most out of the tooling but it is interesting they are done here first

                  Mr. Freeze from Batman 308. But we might be jumping the gun a bit, if FTC even makes it then it likely won't be out for a year or two.

                    If they are compatible.

                      FTC has confirmed Shazam is coming on reg body, not sure about Aquaman but it's assumed he will be.

                        Anyone knows if the FTC heads will fit into the CAT-ZICA Type S body?

                          Yes, they do. In fact I swapped the Dick Grayson head off the FTC body and it was a much better fit on the Type S body, very tight whereas on the FTC body it was a bit loose.

                          Superman is begging for a Type S body!

                            New pics up on FTC's website. Damn, I have to say these look amazing, but suits are still a bit baggy - http://figurestoycompany.com/superpo...ingaction.aspx

                              Those look so freaking awesome on those cards I almost don't even want the regular releases now.

                                Out of curiosity, where was this confirmation made? Got a link?
