Who has Retro Action figures and Which ones do you have?

[Remco Monster]

Just Green Arrow. I don't care for the line much, and they are far too expensive if I have to switch out all bodies and boots. I would much rather spend my cash on vintage figures and modern Mego like figures that are actually good quality and worth the money.

[Nostalgiabuff]

I have all of wave 1 and for wave 2 only missing batman. Have doubles of some that are on display. I will not order them online, with the exception of the Matty exclusives since that is the only way to get them. My feeling is that since they are supposed to be available at retail, i want to find them at retail. Don't know what the issue is with TRU but I have not found even wave 2 there, never mind 3 and 4. if not for TJ Maxx and now Marshalls, i would not have the 3 from wave 2 I have. i refuse to pay shipping for something I should be able to get at retail

2 of each one with one loose and the other still in package and all of them displayed in my new cabinet, here's the pic

edited: I forgot that I have 3 Lex's with one being the unstitched version and 3 GL's one that doesn't have the white eyes painted on and
is not in the cabinet with the others

THAT is a kick @ $ $ picture! Wow!

I have 1 each (loose) of Waves 1 thru 3, Green Arrow and the Martian Manhunter from 4, all purchased online. I also have a carded Superman and Batman that I picked up from TJ Maxx. Eventually I'd like to round out Wave 4 but the budget is holding me back at the moment.

Due to space constraints at the moment All of my loose one's are in a padded metal camera box. Sad really but they are safe. It struck me a couple days ago when I was working on the blog that I'm like "DJ Lance Rock" from "Yo, Gabba, Gabba": I sneak off to my "playroom" to open up my case and pull out the figures I need to play with on photo day. Then at the end of the session I have to put 'em all back in there safe box.

I have all waves,doubles on first 2 waves. I too have opened them for loose display and kept the other set on card.
I haven't opened wave 4 yet for some unknown reason. Wave 3 and 4 were ordered through amok and EE. I did find an extra cheetah and Martian manhunter in NYC and opened MM.

You got to admit this is one of the best things to happen in toy collecting in a long time, IMO.

[Timothy2251]

I have all of 'em (one of each, still packaged), plus an extra Wonder Woman.

[thunderbolt]

have all of them thru wave 3. And all bought at Toys R Us, so it can be done.

[boynightwing]

So far I have Green Arrow, Green Lantern, Lex, Batman, Aquaman, Two Face, Wonder Woman, and the Flash.

[Bruce Wayne 27 1967]

I have everyone that has been released so far. Wave 1 I purchased @ Toys'r'Us in the beginning. Green Arrow I got directly from Matty.com. Wave 2 was from my local comic book store. Wave 3: Amok Time (included WW, Cheeta & Flash on the wrong cards). Wave 4 I found 3 of the 4 on Ebay and Shazam! from my local cbs.
Golly I sure do dig these retro figs!

[actjac01]

Superman, Lex Luthor, Batman & Two Face. All bought from TRU.
And...all bodies replaced with the new 'lighter skin' Castaway bodies while my Bats actually is sporting a CTVT Bruce head. I find the skin tone on the Mattel Bruce is too light. Oh, and I've replaced Supes & Bats emblem with cloth versions I made, as well.

[MIB41]

I'm doubled on Wave 1, one set of Wave 2 and Wave 3. Plus one extra of the Flash. I also have four boxed Green Arrows. With space becoming a premium with everything I collect, I'm thinking about the inevitable task of selling off duplicates, not only of this line but any others. Which means I'll be selling a lot of stuff. I'll be picking up the Matty Lanterns when they come out and Wave 4 some time soon. I'm currently saddled with some expense that takes priority over my collecting, so I probably won't be back into the normal swing of things until later this spring. I do not go into TRU stores much these days because their not reliable as a retailer and gas is too darn expensive to cruise around looking for something that is likely not there anyway. Cheaper to order online and get them all at once. The immediate gratification button beats hoofing it.

From the responses here, it sounds like they would sell more of these figures if people could find them in the stores. I know that I would rather buy them in person.

have all of them thru wave 3. And all bought at Toys R Us, so it can be done.

So Wave 3 has been in Toys R Us?!?!

[Brown Bear]

I have all of them released to date. I switched bodies for Wave 1 and 2 but left wave 3 alone. Wave 4 is on it's way and I'll be passing on the Matty GL ones due to lack of interest. Can't wait for wave 5!!

[david_b]

Sorry, only two Aquamen, for my Mego (and FC) Johnny Storm customs.

Waiting on Marvel to get on the retro Mego bandwagon, and focusing on the C/A Spidey and Cap sets..

Got Green Arrow from MattyCollector.com
Wave 1 from TRU.
Wave 2 from Amazon.
Wave 3 from Big Bad Toy Store.
Wave 4 is sitting in my pile of loot at BBTS.
Want Guy Gardner and John Stewart from MattyCollector.com

Also have one of each EMCE Star Trek figure including Khan.
Both EMCE Monsters.
Twilght Zone Gremlin.

Wave 2 Lost figures on preorder with BBTS.

I have seen RetroAction Heroes waves 1-3 at TRU. But distribution, high gas prices, and the value of my time have caused me to drop TRU as a real option to get these figures.

I was originally going to buy, one set carded, and the other one loose, but gave up on the idea, and just keep one carded from each wave(basically one Mego already did) for the art, and the rest FREE !!!. Got them all, apart from wave 4
