I must've gone back and stared at these pics four times now. Plasticman looks awesome!! Can't wait for mine.

So I bought a set of these guys and I'm really happy with them, except my Plasticman had a defective suit( rip in the back by the belt and the black string was falling out of the suit). So I emailed FTC with a picture and asked them to send a replacement. They emailed me back stating that if I would pay to ship them the defective suit they would send me a new one. I asked them to send me a replacement suit first with either a prepaid label or paypal to cover the return shipping and they absolutely refuse to replace it until they receive the old one first. For me it seems insulting that after the hundreds of dollars I have spent with them over the months and years, they assume I'm trying to scam them out of an extra Plasticman shirt? Last week when my Wonder Twins set came, there was a seam rip on Jayna which they sent me a new one in 2 days. I have bought at least 50 figures from them at this point and to my recollection these are the only 2 issues I have run into. After a series of emails I called them and the guy on the phone told me that didn't sound right, but it was up to the guy answering the emails. I explained about the issue with the Jayna figure and how that was resolved by FTC to which he said " That was last week and they changed their policy last week"I then asked if 1 Plasticman shirt is worth the loss of longtime and frequent customer? Still waiting on an answer from Figures Toy Company on that one. Sorry to rant but I get really bothered by poor customer service experiences.

I may still try to pick up odd parts and clothes from them, but for now I think I'm ordering their figures from Toycade through ebay. They don't charge shipping. I have not had to return anything to them yet, so I don't know how their customer service is yet. But FTC has ****ed me off once too often on shipping lately.

Any notice how rough the molding is on the Martian Manhunter head, a piece of the cheeck in missing as well , I can almost see how the clay was molded. It does not polished or professional done. Was this intentional?

Toycade referred me to FTC customer service.

I like the Mattel Manhunter head well enough--could that be put on a FTC body? Are the green shades compatible?

I just recieved Super powers series #3. and their great .The colors are vibrant ,if these were sold at retail they would POP! ,attention . the my favorite martian figure is nice.and
although his heads a bit large-looks a bit like an angry granny smith apple ,i like this guy,i also like the mattel retro figure ,but its kinda hard to figure which one that
would have been what mego would have done .Plastic man is really neat ,i read his comic back in the day -funny ,love the figure .As a kid a i always wondered -Where
is Flash ,green lantern & Daredevil ?.I also liked the mattel figures ,but these are what mego would have done ,Flashs head is a pinch to large,but not as obvious as alfred
was .mego would not have used the Bats 66 gloves idea of course on Green Lantern ,perhaps just white hand/fist .The sculpt on Hal is far better then mattel,as with the
boots,suit etc.All four have nice likeness.Ill be getting the standard body versions when they come out as part of justice league # 2,or will be offered in another DC line.nice
to have these mego like Flash & Green lantern figures and soon from Diamond /emce Daredevil that i always needed as a kid .The only Damn problem is no time
machine to send them back to that kid in the back yard with his heros,apes & trek figures.

Oh .i guess well will get fist-fighting hawkman.dr fate and firestorm which are pictured on the back.cool.

Plastic Man was the first figure I have purchased from FTC (and the first new Megoey figure I have purchased in 40+ years). I thought he was pretty well done. Like the bright colors and head sculpt. The only quality control problem I had was the head was very loose on the body which I have fixed. I would have liked the belt to be less saggy, but I can fix that as well. Based on Plas, when the line gets further into some of the lesser known Justice Leaguers hopefully the Justice Society, FTC will be getting more of my money!

I'd like to see some pics of the others besides plastic man.

Just received my Super Powers Wave 3 set! Wow, just wow! Love them! Flash & Green Lantern have superior headsculpts and outfits than the Mattel Retro Action counterparts. The Martian Manhunter doesn't top the retro action version, but ain't that bad. I'll probably transplant to a buffier body (i.e. ZICA Buck Rogers) and sew him a green outfit. Plastic Man is just a flesh/tan outfit away from perfection! Can't wait for wave 4.

I'll post pics over the weekend if someone doesn't before.

I got my Super Powers 3 set today and I love all of them! Very Megoey and colorful! Costumes and heads are perfect! Had to pair Barry with Wally, Hal with Ollie (need Black Canary!) and J'onn with Supergirl (see TV) I have wanted Mego Flash, GL, and Plas since their 1970s cartoons!

A few nitpicks J'onn's head is big, wish Flash's hands were painted red for alternative, Hal needs his lantern which his left hand looks sculpted to hold, and Plastic Man does not have toes. And why wasn't BABY PLAS included with his daddy? lol

Flash is getting his own line so he may have red hands there. And I'm sure there will be a Green Lantern (Corps) line where lanterns can be included.

I want more Super Powers like Hawkman, Dr. Fate, and Firestorm pictured on card back! And on recent 2-packs Atom, Red Tornado, etc! I want entire Satellite JLA!

These take me back to 1980s Kenner Super Powers, too!

Want more FTC Super FRIENDS and Legion of Doom, also!

Does anyone know if these figures will be coming out on regular bodies at any point?

Does anyone know if these figures will be coming out on regular bodies at any point?

I think Flash will be available on a regular body when Flash Series 1 comes out this year. But I don't know if the others will be.

[jeffbearco]

I feel almost certain we will see them all repackaged as part of the Super Friends line too.

I'm with you hoping that they do a whole Green Lantern Corps line. We need a Killowog!
