    Yep. Too bad. Related, DC finally put out a TPB of the entire Vol. 1. Fun read! Now I need FTC to make a figure of Black Lightning.

Otherwise wave is super Wonder Woman is my favorite, glad she has rooted hair and no cloth Bodysuit! Aquaman is next he got me into swimming. Still don't know why Black Vulcan wasn't named Black Lightning like the comics. El Dorado, AR is my Hometown! Getting Wonder Twins and Gleek Tomorrow! Can't believe FTC has at least 3 more SF waves planned for 2016 alone and Wendy and Marvin and hopefully Wonder Dog Soon! The World's Greatest Super Friends! Fan since 1973 when I was 3!

    Finally got my set and they look really nice. One problem: My Black Vulcan came with two right hands. I bought through EE. Any idea how I can go about getting this corrected?

    I really like these galleries a lot. They really help people on the fence take the leap on buying figures. I have this wave and love them all.

    Thanks for that. No one really showed off El Dorado and Black Vulcan.

    Wonder Woman looks GREAT! I think she's the only one I'm going to buy...until they release Batman of course.

    I just received my second set of these in the mail today from Toycade, I like them but, my El Dorado's legs were wonky, so i decided to take him apart to fix him. I noticed that the cape must have been put on before the head was popped on as it was a tight fit to try and take off over his head and while i was trying his head popped off at the plug! The head and plug are two different pieces glued together! I had to take him completely apart then to get the plug out of the body and glue the pieces back together, fix the wonky legs and put it all back together. Has anyone else run across this?

    I was pleasantly surprised by Wonder Woman. I did the body swap which made her even better.

    After these pictures, I'm even considering getting an Aquaman!
