Yep, the standard is 2-3 weeks from MattyCollector. It all depends on Customs.

Re: DC Universe Classics

ok cool. I heard that matty was super slow when it came to shipping. As long as it gets here, I'm a-ok

Re: DC Universe Classics

I remember my Lobo seemed to come fast. Starfire & friend are only a week and a bit since I ordered, so I'm not worried yet.

Re: DC Universe Classics

I have everything up to Wave 4. Didn't get Lobo, but I did order the 2 pack.
I think it's going to be really hard finding the WM exclusive wave 5.
I also just got Hawkman and Mr. Miracle from wave 6.
The problem is that my local comic shop, over the course of the waves has raised the price from 15.99 to 17.99 to 19.99 and now the latest two were 24.99.
Ouch!

Re: DC Universe Classics

Over at Fwoosh someone posted a pic of some of wave 7 on the pegs. I think the retail price was $11.99 USD. For me, something about paying $25. for a fig that is about $10 less in the states takes a bit of fun out of the hobby.

Re: DC Universe Classics

yikes, thats a big jump from the start to finish. My LCS just sells the figures in sets, so I have to have the 110 dollars there asking to pick them up. luckily I have a friend in the US who helps me out.

As for the progress: I have all of Wave 1,3,4,5. From wave 2 I just have the Grodd, Blue & Red Sups, Black Manta and Aquaman

I'm waiting for the TRU 2 packs to come in and the matty 2 pack.

PS: Thank god for this line, without it I would have been sooo bored waiting around for MLs to come out

Yeah, not worth it. There's raising prices, and then there's price gouging.

Re: DC Universe Classics

Are we getting the 2-packs here? I know it is a stupid question... but I thought I would ask it anyways.

Re: DC Universe Classics

I've wanted Wonder Woman and/or Artemis ever since they came out. Are they worth it at all? I just haven't found any non-scalper prices or people actually selling them at cost instead of asking for trades.

Admittedly I haven't looked very hard since this line isn't even distributed well in the US, and are pretty nonexistent at retail for us Canadians.
