Would you want to see Young Justice in Retro Format?

[LOU]

Yeah samurainor. If they do the different branding thing then that's another story. I know there's many like me who are completists when it comes to collecting...to the point of buying figures we hate just to be complete. I stopped that a long time ago. This way the Retro line will still be "complete" with true "retro" heroes...after all, I'm not collecting these to start buying these characters I hate; likewise, I'm not starting a collection that can't be finished. It's exactly what I feared would happen to this line months ago when I brought it up.
I guess we'll wait and see how Mattel handles it with the Green Lantern movie figures...hopefully assigning different carding than the regular classic retro figures we've gotten so far.

Ammendment:
Oh there's going to be a Young Justice movie? Then I change my stance...somewhat...put them on their own cards and segregate them from the "Retro" line...as I said they should do with the movie Green Lantern figures.

A Young Justice animated TV Series.

Pretty soon a new generation of kids will know these characters in a way that they wouldn't of when the previous Superboy and Impulse figures were added to the Extreme Justice/JLA line.

But yeah, give them their own Young Justice branding to differentiate them from the Retro line.

I wouldn't mind seeing the Young Justice characters done in Retro Action. Just as long as we get a Robin in this line, though personally, I would like a Retro Action Robin who looks the way he did in the SuperFriends.

Cheers.

I'd rather see Buford T. Justice

e...why you guys are even bringing up these weird and, in my opinion, lame heroes

I guess you've never read Impulse #3. It's one of my favorite comic books. A kid gets sent to a new school with one objective; Make some friends. By the end of the day he's managed to tick everyone off so badly the bullies are fighting each other to see who gets to beat him up first!

Humberto Ramos is also one of my favorite artists as well. I own the entire run of the series. I always thought it was a really fun and enjoyable comic book. It never took itself too seriously yet had interesting an compelling characters and storylines. I always felt they ruined the Impulse character by making him the new Kid Flash. He's a different entity to me.

My oldest says he'd rather have older versions but he likes these. He wants a Dick Grayson, not a Tim. His words, not mine. lol

He also said he wants Young Justice figures but not retro styled.

Robin is his favorite character by the way, NOT Batman. Go figure! lol

[pmwasson]

It always fascinates me that so many interpret an addition of other "brands" for the Retro Cloth line to be at the expense of additions to the retro Superheroes line.

I agree. The more figures the better. The members of the Museum aren't going to support this line all by ourselves. We need some mainstream support with characters that are popular.

I'll really be interested to see how the Ghost Busters figure do.

[LOU]

If they make so much as just ONE of these characters, so help me God, I will sell every last one these "RETRO" heroes and swear off the line. They're unpopular peg warmers, just like Impulse and Superboy were to the JLA line...why you guys are even bringing up these weird and, in my opinion, lame heroes out of 70 years of GREAT and original comic book heroes is beyond me. I mean "Young Justice?"...as I said, I think Impulse and Superboy were still hanging on K-B's pegs until they closed. Bad, bad, bad idea in my humble opinion. I'm still nauseated over the Yellow Sinestro and Guy Gardner Green Lantern...this would surely kill me.

My understanding is that they already have their schedule of characters to be released for the next couple of years. "Modern" characters like Sinestro in his yellow Corps uniform and Guy Gardner are like Bonus characters we are getting from MattyCollector IMHO as we ramp up for the GL movie.

My thinking is that they are going to be making Young Justice and Green Lantern movie "brand" action figures anyways. Why can't they give the retro format a try in addition to whichever other format appears? (which I'm going to assume to be in line with the 3 3/4" figures everyone else is putting out right now). It's not like Retro Ghostbusters takes away from Retro Superheroes for example.

[Meule]

Honestly, there's a lot more I'd like to see before they got to most of these.

Agreed

[trekman101]

They need to stick to the main characters first (or as close as possible) before they go in all directions

[jwyblejr]

If we get Teen Titans first and maybe these guys somewhere down the road,I've got no problem with that.

[bobws]

I'd get them , but i'm making my Titans/Young Justice customs anyways.

[rlkrefft]

I really think they need to stick to classic characters. I mean they are called the Retro Action line. I don't consider these retro. I'm sad we are getting a modern age Sinestro already in year 2 of this line. DC Direct gives enough attention to the modern age of DC. I would have no interest in anything modern in this 8" cloth style. Not even Harley Quinn and I'm a huge Bat-fan.

[Krypt0nite]

Well, this would be a total pass for me---I just have no connection to those characters. Now if it were Superboy (young Clark Kent), Robin (Dick Grayson), Aqualad (Garth), Kid Flash (Wally West), and Speedy (Roy Harper) I'd love it!!

I'd much rather see some Legionnaires be made for the teen bodies: if Mego had continued into the 80s, Superboy and the Legion of Super-Heroes was at one point DC's top seller and would have been a good follow-up to the Teen Titans.
