Wondering what figures will be coming up in the Neal Adams line...
I am thinking Mickey said very early 2015 is most likely for Batman Wave 4.
Yeap that's what it looks like at the Moment-2015 1st quarter. If that changes I'll let everyone know. Their should be enough other stuff for everyone between now and then to keep you happy.
With Superman-single, Conan, Tarzan, Wonder Woman, FF's, Batman TV Show Wave 2, Superman wave, the 1966 Bat TV Show exclusives, Bat TV Show Acess set, And their is a few surprises coming as well.
Loved the Gentleman Ghost, didn't realize he was classified as a Hawkman villian. The clear body Type S gives you a nice start on a custom GG figure, the kicker would be the clear head, it seems.
I always thought it would be great to use a sculpted "Victorian Gentleman" head in clear with a white-painted hat & monocle for GG.
Some here have used a modified clear Penguin head.
Hawkman's Rogues Gallery is pretty limited IMO: Blyth, IQ, Gentleman Ghost, Shadow-Thief, & Matter Master are all I can recall.
A high white collar holding up the top hat and monocle seems to be the accepted way to make the figure and get around the whole headless thing. A clear skull or clear version of the Bruce Wayne head would also be acceptable I think.
Plus a clear body leads to a lot of different customs!

Some people wanted monsters, combining that with Neal Adams styling, what about the wolfman? Anthony Lupus who debuted in Batman 255, drawn by Adams (some of his best work on the title).
I would expect to see updated versions of the Mego characters previously made, if the line lasts that long. It's a nice segue from Mego style to a more modern style (not too modern though, no New 52 please!) and keeps popular characters like the Bat Family, Superman Family, The Flash & Green Arrow (both with primetime CW shows) in play. And I think we are already seeing that new characters might fit in better with the modern versions than the Megos, like Alfred, Commissioner Gordon, Scarecrow, Ras Al Ghul and Bizaarro.
Lets change it to, "Do you think the Superman, Wonder Woman and Batgirl are the last word in those characters? Or do you think there will be updated figures for those characters too, the way they are updating Batman?" And what other classic Mego figures do you think will be updated?
