Which figures should Mattel make?

[WatchertheWatchingman]

I would say:

A. a superman with a different costume variation,i.e. regeneration suit or old school supes.

B.most of all, batman! no doubt.

C.the one I would like the most would be a booster gold, since he;s getting very popular now.

D. blue beetle, just to pair up with booster.

E.A joker, for batman

This thread is awesome.
If I had to pick ten (two more waves - these would do it for me)
Flash / Hawkman / Martian Man Hunter / Solomon Grundy / Bizarro (PLEASE!!!)
Sgt. Rock / Jonah Hex (not a common character - but there is a movie coming out next year) / Plastic Man / Dr. Fate / Two-Face. I know I'm dreaming on this second wave but that never hurts I guess. I still think a Jonah Hex movie tie-in would be cool - and a Sgt. Rock. And they did make a Tarzan and Conan - these never were really part of the DC WGSH right?

BATMITE!

[bobws]

I like the Hero/Villian combos of the first wave with a reissue hero and new hero each. that's a very good marketing style, it gets us our old figures remade and new ones out at the same time with generally 2 to 3 new characters each release due to the lack of villians originally. The Superfriends/JLA hero with villian is a good way to go as well, but throw in Titans(full Size), JSA, Legion, Doom Patrol and Outsiders as you go.

wave 2 should be:
Batman/Joker
Flash/Captain Cold
Exclusive- Nightwing

Wave3:
Wonder Woman/Cheetah
Hawkman/Dr Light
EX- Black Vulcan

Wave 4
Aquaman/Black Manta
Black Canary/Cheshire
Ex -Samuarai

Wave 5
Robin/Riddler
Martain Manhunter/Despero
Ex- Apache Chief

Wave 6
Batgirl/Catwoman
Atom/Chronos
Ex-Elonngated Man

Wave 7
Supergirl/Brainiac
Firestorm/Hyena
Ex -Red Tornado

Wave8
Capt Marvel/Black Adam
Hawkgirl/Gentleman Ghost
Ex- Zatanna

Wave 9
WonderGirl/Penguin
Starfire/Blackfire
Ex-Mad mod

Wave 10
Speedy/Deathstroke
Raven/Terra
Ex-Mirror Master

Wave 11
Kid Flash/Capt Boomerang
Changling/Madame Rougue
Ex-Mxy

Wave 12
Aqualad/Ocean Master
Cyborg/Mammoth
Ex-Shimmer

That will cover a few years. But like others here.... I want them ALL MADE!

[Brown Bear]

Zod & Non from the movies WOULD be cool.....

[spotter]

in no particular order:
sticking to DC since marvel is Hasbro

I'd like to see Bad Guys with a Meaner look though

Barry Allen Flash (removable cowl or switchable heads would be awsome) & Tooling could be re used for Reverse Flash

Batman (SHADED cowl tall ears)
Nightwing (not robin)
Jonah Hex
TV Style or Big Red Cheese style Shazam
Frank Gorshin Riddler
Black Vulcan
70's braniac ( love those Green Gams!)
Mirror Master
8 inch ZOD like the mego classic comic uni and terrance stamp head
Any of the Big LSH Guys Braniac 5, Mon El are my top 2
ATOM -( like the idea of having multiple smaller articulated included - infintte heroes ?)
Blue Beetle
Scarecrow (LOD style)
GUY GARDNER ! a personal Fave although wrong era

[Remco Monster]

Solomon Grundy
Black Manta
Bizzaro
Wonder Twins

[megalomaniac001]

Count me in for the entire cast of Challenge of the Superfriends / Legion of Doom. I want the Wonder Twins with Gleek and how about Marvin, Wendy and Wonder Dog? I also like the idea of having two hero's and their 'arch enemy's' in each wave. Having some internet exclusives doesn't bother me too much if it means some obscure characters, IF they have enough to satisfy the demand! None of this 'limited to 100 units' stuff or variants for this line please! Oh, and females, give us some Super Gals! I have three daughters, I want them to know the joy of Megos!

[Airdave817]

I'll place a vote for The Flash. (I'd like to see the League, Titans, JSA, '80's Infinity, Inc, Doom Patrol, Metal Men, BlackHawks, Inferior Five...)

I picked up most of Alex Ross' Justice figures (except Grodd), so I'm not sure I could see a Mattel Mego Grodd...It would be cool, though. Maybe on a larger body like Grundy could be...

I guess I would go for The Flash/Gorilla Grodd; Wonder Woman/Cheetah; Aquaman/Black Manta; Martian Manhunter/Felix Faust...

[pmwasson]

Solomon Grundy on a Hulk body would be wicked!

I'd like to see Solomon Grundy on a larger body. Then we could have a proper sized Hulk and a Thing that is not the shortest member of the Fantastic Four.

[Brown Bear]

Flash is a given.

Solomon Grundy on a Hulk body would be wicked!
Classic Brianiac
New Shazam! with closed eyes and white cape (via CC Beck)
Super Friends Robin & Batman with no pupils
Wonder Twins!!!
Bizarro #1 would be cool.
Two-Face with green face (70's version)
General Zod & Non from the movies
Classic Jor-el (green suit)
I could go on forever....and I hope these new figures do as well.

[kingdom warrior]

B'wanna Beast........please!! please!! please!! and of course Plastic man!!!!

[DocDrako]

Naturally I am happy that these are coming out. My dream list, should Mattel choose to accept it, would be as follows...

(No giggling, laughing, or guffawing please.)

Batman (he's a sure thing, but maybe include Ace, The Bat-Hound as an accessory)
Nightwing
Blue Beetle (Ted Kord)
Catwoman
Batgirl
Joker
Penguin
Flash
Captain Cold
Aquaman
Black Manta
Captain Marvel
Captain Marvel Jr.
Dr. Sivana
Bizarro
Black Vulcan
Doctor Fate (classic style)
Cyborg
Firestorm
Wonder Woman
Metamorpho (still have that song stuck in my head after all these years)

If Mattel decides to do a Teen Titans style line, then:
Robin (he'd be awesome in the smaller format as Mego should have done in the first place)
Superboy
Speedy
Kid Flash
Wonder Girl
Aqualad

And if they decide to do The World's Greatest Anti-Heroes:

Spider Jerusalem (Transmetropolitan)
V (V for Vendetta)

There are many more that I'd like to see but I'll just stop there.

Why? Why do people insist on exclusives? Do they feel superior that they own a figure when other people cannot? I HATE internet exclusives. It is totally unfair to others.

True but exclusive also give us an oppurtunity to pick up a fifth figure in the new figures. and better yet I dont have to wait till next year.....he's comming this fall.
Exclusives give us a chance to own a figure that might not have been produced, or forced another figure into a later assortment that might not happen....maybe thats what happened to Green Lantern and Flash the first time....they needed exclusives back in the 80's
