Superman Series Wave 4?

[Mary Canary]

I could have sworn a new sculpt Supergirl was announced, but there is no mention of one in JeffBearCO's post.

I have wanted a Legion of Super-Heroes for a long time! Even though I see them as a separate line, putting them in with a Superman series might be a nice way to see them get made. At least a few of them.

I know they did that Supergirl with the printed shoes and belt, but meh, that doesn't do much for me. It would be cool if they did another version in a different costume - she has had so many and is getting more in the current comics. Looks like she is going back to the blue skirt. That would be a great way to do a retro costume that could also be modernized for fans who want a contemporary version of her.

I can see the Legion being its own line, but kind of feel like they could have released the core 3 characters with Superboy as a wave, that would have been neat. Like you said, just to get a few of them out there...

I love Superman but I think the FTC line is coming to an end, just because of subpar mediocre sales, but hey, I've been wrong before.

If a new series line was coming out then yes, I would hope to see General Zod, Parasite, Jor-El and Terra-Man

But don't you think, gosh, why would they release Ma & Pa Kent before they released Zod and Jor-El.
Nothing against the Kents, they did a fine job raising Clark, but they don't make for very exciting action figures.
No flashy costumes. No special powers. Maybe if they had released stronger, more colorful fan-favorites the line would have done better?
You have to sometimes wonder at these decisions...

What new Supergirl are they making?

I just bought the SF Lex Luthor, so hopefully if they do another version of him he'll be different.
I can see them reusing the gray prison suit... wasn't that a common costume for him as well?

Agree Jor-El and Lara would be neat.

Or how about branching into the Legion of Super-Heroes and making Saturn Girl, Cosmic Boy, and Lighting Lad?
I'd love some Legionnaires!

At one point there was an image of a Superman-themed carrying case on FTC's site. Besides the versions of characters already released, it also had Supergirl, Lana Lang, Krypto and 3 Phantom Zone villains from the Dc style guide, including Zod & Faora. I assumed there was the seed of an expected wave 4 in there. But now I can't seem to find that image, let alone any of the carrying cases.

I don't feel like the Superman lines sold that well, hence that big lot of loose Superman Series figures on FTC's website.

That said, I am hoping that maybe Action Comics #1000 will renew interest in the Man of Steel because I'd like to see more of his Rogue's Gallery made. We know we have a new Supergirl coming, so that should be in Wave 4. Other than Supergirl, I'd like to see:

• Lex Luther (Comic Style Green & Purple Suit)
• Brainiac (Comic version of SF figure)
• Prankster (boring, but classic Silver Age character)
• Parasite (regular body; not muscled up version)
• General Zod
• Jor-El
• Kryptonite Kid
• Terra-Man (!)

Would love a Silver/Bronze Age Jor-El and Lara.

[JediJaida]

How about Lara, his mother? Or Lana Lang? Lori Lumaris?

Last night I was listening to the Superman Movie podcast discussing the Mego tie-ins released around the time of the first Superman film.

And I started thinking... It seems odd that Ma & Pa Kent were released by FTC, but no Jor-El or General Zod - especially since Mego released both of those characters, albeit not in 8" scale! The classic purple/green Lex Luthor was released as part of the Super Friends set, but the Superman line has boring labcoat Lex. Bizarro, Mr. Myx, and Brainiac have been made. Seems like there are more Superman villains and characters FTC could tap into.

I'd really love a Jor-El and a Zod, and maybe even the other Phantom Zone villains.
Do you think there will be a WAVE 4 and if so, who would you include?

Also, minor complaint:
I wish Jimmy Olsen and Lois Lane came with cameras.
Even Classic TV Toys doesn't have a camera, other than a video camera.
I bought a Barbie camera on ebay for my Lois, since the microphone isn't even something she can hold in her hand.
