Two-Face is the best of the lot in terms of collecting.
For play, Batman and Green Arrow are #1 for my son, and Aquaman for my daughter. She is utterly fascinated that he came with a trident.
For me play-wise, I don't know why, but I was so psyched that Superman came with a yellow "s" on his cape.It's all good!Comment

Removeable skin
The green bodysuit on Martian Manhunter should be completely
removeable so that fans could choose to go Tarzan or Conan with
him.
As for Black Adam - he is a golden age character that has had a
modern resurgance. He was featured in the Shazam View Master
set which is where I first encountered him.
and Martain Manhunter would be better without the cloth skin,same would go for Darkseid,he would have been better in a whole new big body then stuffed.
The only figure so far I really have no interest in is Black Adam. He is too modern age for me and I think Dr. Savina would have been a much better
retro choice.Comment

Given the alternative of a skinny looking Darkseid, I think the stuffed shirt look is the only way Matty could go....short of a new body. One can always swap it out for docs upcoming articulated muscle body?
Good to know one can "go commando" with MM if they feel the need as well. Can always use the green jumpsuit to cobble together a Weather Wizard or something after."Crayons taste like purple!"Comment

I really hope when Mattel gets around to Hawkman he will have that option as well where fans can remove the cloth skin shirt. I think the cloth skin really looks gross. I mean Mego didn't have much to work with 40 years ago but Mattel for sure can make these without cloth skin. Thank god Wonder Woman was done right. On Green Arrow I didn't mind it as much because it is hardly noticable.Comment

Just got series 2 this week, and I think they look great. There's a certain thrill to seeing them on their cards, as they were back in the 70s. Didn't realize it back then, because your first instinct as a child is to get them out of their packages as soon as possible, but recreating that momentary thrill when you first saw them packaged is something adult collectors have spent years and a lot of money doing.
Anyway, if I had to pick a favorite, yeah, Green Arrow, then Green Lantern from series 1, and probably Black Manta from series 2. But choosing one from each wave is kind of like Sophie's Choice.Comment
