    Sounds to me Kyle will indeed be the last Retro-Action figure. Boo-hoo, it was a great run and besides I still have NOLD and Star Trek to keep my busy. Also, Dr. Who, I think I will survive the demise of our beloved Retro- Action but it won't be without a tear or two.

    Didn't Doc say he would post pics of these figures? Maybe the fact he didn't abs that post got deleted means Mattel may still release them?

    I would have liked to have seen their take on Supergirl.

    You could order full cases of each character tho. i.e. 8x WW or 8x cheetah if you wanted to keep your sets even.
    Interesting on both counts

    Maybe the retro action female body will be recycled for some line of Mattel girls dolls. Disney princesses or maybe a new line with an oversized head or something.

    Has anyone noted if they were comparitively short-packed? Females often are.

    interesting point, Del

    Mattel is pretty good a recycling things in odd ways. The RA body has plenty of big Jim in its design. Speaking of the BJ era. I am pretty sure Mattel recycled the headsculpts at a slightly smaller scale for the finger puppet action figure thingy they did. I think it was called 'Real Men'.

    It would be great to still have some items made with the gal body if only to nab for kitbashing and customs.

    I hope Mattel uses those same female bodies on something else, as long as it's not too pricey, so we can at least use them for customs.

It is kind of frustrating we aren't going to get more characters that would have been big sellers like Batgirl, Robin and Joker.

    I'd like to know of his Batgirl would have had a removable cowl or not. So many questions...
