No problem and I hope they don't. My movie 6 pack still hasn't arrived to store so I'm thinking they will cancel.

Here's hoping Gamestop will carry the Supergirl like they did the exclusive Captain Atom and Beast Boy figures.

Looks like the Supergirl has a cloth cape in the photo too.
Actually it doesn't. We've been getting all the retail exclusives so far including the Mcfarlanetoysstore website exclusives except the 2 waves that you mentioned.
There hasn't really been any explanation why the Flashpoint wave and Starro wave are Target only exclusives in US. Nowhere else got it.

I really wanted that Crime Syndicate/Starro wave, and I mostly want the Flashpoint wave for the pre-Flashpoint Barry Allen.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but did the Walmart exclusive Eradicator ever show up on the Walmart.ca website? I always saw it as out of stock.

I ordered Eradicator from Walmart, and even received it, too!

You're lucky! Glad you were able to get one.

Here's hoping they'll re-release Eradicator with his original flesh toned face.

Thanks, and yes, I'd much prefer the original look. But either way I'll be ordering the Mafex Eradicator since I already have the other Mafex Reign of the Supermen figures. It's one of my favourite comic series ever, and the Mafex figures are beautiful!

I've seen pics of those Mafex figures and you're right, they're gorgeously sculpted.

On a related Superman note, has there been any word on when the Steel action figure will be released?

The figure was originally announced with Hush Superman, Tim Drake/Robin (in original colors) and Knightfall Batman, and I assumed it was going to be released with the other three figures (Supes and Robin have just started showing up recently at GameStop stores in Toronto).

Pass on that. The red leggings kill the look, too much red.


Though wouldn't be surprised if Todd did a repaint/variant shortly.

I've never been burned by a preorder before, but the fact that the item says 'Released' online, but the store hasn't gotten it yet definitely has me worried.

I bought a bunch of other movie figures based on that 6-pack, so I will definitely be pissed if I can't get the Batman set.
