    Not to jump the Gun, but Guesses on Wave 2 of Retro Heros???

    Given that Batman is pictured on the card of Wave 1 I'd say he's a given. I'm gonna speculate, using wave 1 as a template and say wave 2 is as follows:

    Batman
    Two-Face
    Flash
    Captian Cold

    Not that EMCE/Mattel is gonna use the same formula for every wave but IF they do this wave follows wave 1 :

    Batman- Re-Do of Mego DC heavy hitter ala wave 1 Superman
    Two-Face- Villian for heavy hitter hero not produced by Mego ala wave 1 Luthor
    Flash- Hero not produced by Mego ala Green Latern
    Captian Cold-Villian for above Hero (this could be professor Zoom too I suppose) ala Sinestro

    Anyway all just fun speculation on my part, just can't wait to be able to walk into a Toys R Us and see these hanging on the shelves

    That would be a very solid wave and one that I would be interested in. Since Batman made the artwork for the Green Arrow card you would suspect he is on the horizon. And Flash is certainly one of those Megos you wished had been made as a kid. There was a thread a while back questioning how well a Captain Cold would do - - - so who knows on whether we will ever see him released. Also, as you suggest, who knows if the hero/villian ratio will stay the same in future waves.

            Not a bad guesstimate, one I could certainly live with

              I would think if Batman and a Villian are coming out then Robin should be the 5th figure out. if they keep with 5 figures... I don't want to wait til the 3rd or 4th wave for Robin

                If I remember correctly next waves will only be 4 figures

                  Maybe Dick Grayson Robin will be a Matty Collector Exclusive like Green Arrow. Not saying it is the right choice if Batman is going to be released you need Robin. They go hand in hand.

                    I'm going to guess

                    Batman, Joker
                    Aquaman, Black Manta

                    thought I would Looooove to see the Flash and Captain Cold

                      I hope Flash makes it in wave 2. I've been wanting a "Mego" flash since I was 9 yrs old.


                      Think B.A. Where did you hide the Megos?

                              They should do Nightwing if they do adult Grayson. The "Elvis" costume.
