    I mean when would you actually put them in a set? doesn't it make sense to sell them as exclusives?

        I agree, but I think it would be a peg warmer. Does Mattel have any Gorilla bodies out there, already? That would be cool.
        It's all good!

          I'd have said that up until recent years where Geoff Johns has made him quite a compelling character.



          I think the easiest variant for them at this point is Wally's costume vs Barry's. Just modify the belt!

            If i was a Gambler, I'd go this route and bet the house for these "Wave 2" releases.



            Blue costume version... of course.

            But i'm not a Gambler, and can only wish at this point of the game.......

                  I'm with you on these guys. Green Lantern was done first probably because everyone wished MEGO had done him in the first place. Flash would be the next logical hero to be done.

                      Wave 3: Wonder Woman
                      Cheetah
                      Aquaman
                      Black Manta

                        If THOSE aren't the next two waves...or at least VERY close to the
                        next 2 waves, then I think Mattel et. al. are making a huge mistake.

                          Honestly, I kind of hope you're wrong.

                            I know I'm in the minority, but I'd love to see disco Nitewing.

                            My Guesses:

                            Flash/Capt. Cold
                            Batman/Riddler (I'd rather see Two-Face)

                            then

                            Aquaman/Manta
                            Robin/Joker

                            I don't see them doing Zoom with Flash - it would look too much like a variant Flash instead of an enemy

                              I'm curious. Who would you think would be the BETTER choices for Mattel?

                                i hope they keep up the 1 old hero and villian with 1 new hero and villian.
                                so series 3 would be WW and cheetah, for sure .
                                hawkman & gentleman ghost or MM and despero

                                this way we always get 2 or 3 new characters each set!
