        Seriously? Who'd want an action figure, let alone a Mego of Agatha Harkness? What a way to kill the line before it even starts.

            I think we need to keep our expectations in check. First, this is a MATTEL announcement. Mattel has the DC license. The only WGSH figures Mattel will be producing are DC characters.

            IF there are going to be any Mego-like figures of Marvel characters, that will have to be an announcement from another company, such as Hasbro or Diamond. Yeah, I know it stinks, and I'm bummed out about this too. But times are different, and the days when one toy company could hold both the Marvel and DC licenses are looooong gone. So, the only thing us Marvel fans can do is wait, and hope that these Mattel figures sell well enough to make Hasbro or Diamond sit up and take notice.

            In the mean time, put me down for a Barry Allen Flash!

              Good point,I guess that the guys at MATTEL saw what happened with the "retrocloth" figures by EMCE,so let's hope that they do sell well...

                Okay, forget Agatha Harkness.

                She's JUST one of the most powerful sorceresses the Marvel Universe has ever seen, and is even more knowledgable than Doctor Strange.

                How about Clea?

                  I myself would not have females or smaller sized figure listed until we get word from Mattel saying they have such bodies. Same with larger figures. I mean I would love to see Grundy done like this but until we hear from Mattel,I'll keep him off. I'd like to see some Golden Age stuff somewhere done the line.

                    Power aside, a HOT chick (Clea) is always going to sell better than an old hag (Agatha)...it's just basic business sense.

                      Sadly, Lonnie, Agatha Harkness is all Marvel, and chances are highly unlikely Hasbro will let Mattel make that smokin' hot septuagenarian.

                      But all is not lost! Ma Kent is definitely a DC property, and should be a prime candidate for inclusion in the new WGSH line! She sews Superman's suits! She made sure he grew up big and strong (give her a rhubarb pie accessory!)! She helped him with his homework, kissed his boo-boos, showed him love, taught him to be a kind, decent, compassionate, loving and all around GOOD human being (despite being from Krypton). Now THAT'S a hero!

                      Plus, in deference to you Lonnie, she can rock an apron like nobody's business. Yeah, I went there.
                      "It's sad that governments are chiefed by the double tongues. There is iron in your words of death for all Comanche to see, and so there is iron in your words of life. No signed paper can hold the iron. It must come from men. The words of Ten Bears carries the same iron of life and death. It is good that warriors such as we meet in the struggle of life... or death. It shall be life."

                          I agree with staying with the 70's characters and style at least for the first 10 or 15 waves!

                          My votes go for:

                          Wave 2
                          Batman/Joker
                          Batgirl/Riddler
                          Captain Marvel Jr (Web exclusive) - I have to have my Marvel family!

                          Wave 3
                          Aquaman/Manta
                          Wonder Woman/Cheeta
                          Mary Marvel (Web exclusive)

                          Wave 4
                          Shazam/Black Adam
                          Robin/Riddler
                          Catwoman (Web Exclusive)

                          Wave 5
                          Flash/Reverse-Flash
                          Supergirl/Bizzaro
                          Captain Cold (Web Exclusive)

                          That would get me started!

                            A C.C. Beck-style Captain Marvel would be beyond awesome! Also, I'd gladly buy a set of different Green Lantern heads to swap out with Hal's, especially if the set included Tomar Re.

                              I was just thinking the same thing on Captain Marvel.I'm sure if he's made that'll definitely be one of the upgrades.Hopefully a new cape and the correct boots also.

                              There's quite a bit of potential for the Green Lantern figure if they produce alternate heads.

                                It's probably not happening but I would love an Animal Man. Mattel has made two figures of him, so there is a teeny tiny flicker of hope.
