I think variants are truly what is going to be my final cure-all for being a COMPLETIST! I did not order ANY BATMAN 66 variants/exclusives....which is HUGE for me! Thank GOD they are all coming out at the same time & more expensive per figure.....it's saving me dough left & right....& changing my whole behavioral issue of always NEEDING to Collect the all (& x2 at that!)
    Funny when you remember things as a kid (like Nightwing and Flamebird) and they seemed so complex and then you see the designs now and they are quite simple. I think they would make fantastic exclusives or website specials. I dont know what is worse, just collecting what you like, or sticking with one line and getting the variants. I just buy what I like but then end up with a mish-mash of toys with no cohesive thread. With space being limited and disposable income shrinking, I really have to think twice before I buy. Buying something cool just so it can sit in a box under the bed is a bit of a bummer for me.

    Well, I am at a loss. Although, I am definitely making a Turtle Boy when Olsen gets released.

                If it's not Marva's Super Kal, then it only leaves Connor Kent or Mon-El...? Legion was big in the 70's, so he sort of fits I guess...that would be crazy to start digging into Legion before a Brainiac. Then again, a Kora head with black hair may work.

                If it's Superboy Prime than just burn the factory down.

                  I'm really stunned they didn't just shrink a Zod 12-inch for 8. I guess it's a fabric cost. Easier to keep spooling out the blue and red than flip to black and grey.

                    I think a good bet would be either Jor-El or Zod; both had 12" figures back in the day, but no 8" version.

                      Jor-El would be very cool.

                      Would they do him using the Superman head with a headband? White sideburns? Or a completely new sculpt?

                      Or could they just mean a Neal Adams version of Superman to go with the Batman and hopefully Wonder Woman???

                        I'd like to see FTC make Christopher Reeve and Marlon Brando 8" movie figures.

                          Don't bet real money on that.


                          Someone was very close but didn't exactly have it.

                              That's why I don't gamble. Looking forward to seeing more reveals.

                              How much will be shown at SDCC?
