Re: Up-And-Coming DC Universe Classics!

And finally the C&C figure for Wave 14 - Ultra Humanite. This very detailed Four Horsemen offering is said to be one of the nicest C&C figures we've gotten in this toyline so far!

Enjoy and thanks to The Fwoosh for the awesome pictures! Again, DCUC Wave 14, which is a Wal-Mart Exclusive line, is said to be hitting retail some time near the end of the month if all goes according to plan!

Re: Up-And-Coming DC Universe Classics!

The 2010 DCUC ToyFare poll results are in!

For those who don't remember, this year's poll enabled fan's to vote for a future C&C figure to be featured in the line. The choices were:

Blockbuster
Girder
King Shark
Nekron
Shaggy Man
Wildebeest

This year's winner was: Nekron, who'll be released, according to ToyFare Magazine, as the C&C figure in DCUC Wave 20!

Re: Up-And-Coming DC Universe Classics!

Those LOSH characters would mean that Mattel has ditched the Legion 12 pack then. As Lightning Lad, Saturn Girl, Cosmic Boy, Colossal Boy, and Brainiac 5 were going to be part of it.

Re: Up-And-Coming DC Universe Classics!

I must admit I'd love to see a Prof. Zoom!

Re: Up-And-Coming DC Universe Classics!

I assume that the Wally West-Flash will be the new darker red suit with the Flash TV series inspired mask and symbol.

Re: Up-And-Coming DC Universe Classics!

^^ That would make the most sense in my opinion.

Got some pictures today, thanks to AFI, of an upcoming Hal Jordan / Sinestro 2-pack, that, according to MattyCollector, is slated for release some time this winter.

Hal features painted pupils, which I don't like personally, and Sinestro has a newly retooled body sculpt to make him slightly taller than his Wave 3 counterpart, which many collector's found to be much too small.

Enjoy!

Re: Up-And-Coming DC Universe Classics!

The Latest Ask Matty Q&A conducted by The Fwoosh gives us a heads-up as to what to expect in the coming months from our beloved DCUC line.

Here are the questions and resulting answers:

1. Will all of the DCUC 16 and GLC series one figures have the same articulation scheme that was shown on display at SDCC 2010? A lot of these figure had new articulation (double elbows and knees) and fans are really excited for new points of articulation.

Some figures will indeed have more articulation, but not every figure in the wave. We are not far enough along to announce anything officially. Once we have final samples we will let the fans know!

2. Can you give us an updated release calendar for some of the upcoming DC products?

DCUC 16 First quarter of 2011
GLC 1 First quarter of 2011
Green Lantern/Sinestro two-pack Late 2010
TRU Black Tux Joker Retailers have moved away from the single figure repaints so we are looking for a new home for these figures.TRU MOTCU/DC series 2 two-packs Late 2010

So, there you have it, the end of 2010 and beginning of 2011, expect new DCUC products to add to your collection! Thanks for passing this on, Fwoosh!
