After we posted about the much-discussed rumored line-up for DC Universe Classics wave 17, we received this response from Cliff Francis. While I don’t often agree with his point of view, I do often find myself amused with how he tries gets his point across. On this topic, I think he has some interesting ideas. So, give it a read and see what you think!
You can also find Cliff at Costume Contumely, his blog about “Comic Books, Action Figures, and More.”
No Pot Of Gold At The End Of Mattel’s Rainbow
Did you enjoy the DC Universe Classics 6” action figure line by Mattel and the Four Horsemen? Did it take the place in your heart as THE DC Comics action figure line of all time? Did you have fun tracking down new figures and anticipating ones to come? Well I hope you got a lot of satisfaction out of it because it’s over.
Done. Finished.
It comes to and end next spring when Mattel will ship wave 17.
You think I’m joking?
Then clearly you haven’t been paying attention to the recent (as yet unsubstantiated) leak of the character assortment for that wave.

Welcome back to another edition of CaptionFigurePics.com!
Submit your caption for this picture, from Buzzy, in the “Leave a Reply” section below, and get a chance to win some Free Stuff!
A few weeks ago, we ran this CFP of Spider-Man and Venom. As it was Talyn’s pic, he selected the winner, William McKean, for his caption: “..Dude! …Psssst*….Spidey… it’s me Venom, doesn’t it suck that we’re the only two decent figures in our line….” Congrats, William!
We won’t do this every single time, but for this CFP, I’m giving away two loose Mattel WWE figures from my Free Stuff pile. First, Batista, from WWE Basic Series 1. And second, the Ministry Undertaker from San Diego Comic-Con this year.
Please note: both figures are loose, and Undertaker’s left hip joint snapped when freeing his thigh swivel.
I was able to reassemble the joint (no glue), but it will come apart again if you do not handle the figure with care. Don’t worry, though, Undertaker stands with no issues and can be posed if you handle with care. And should the joint fall apart again, it’ll be easy to snap back together.
Hey, what do you want – it’s free! So get cracking on those captions, and good luck!
Mattel has updated their Facebook page with in package pics of Buzz-Off , some WIP shots of Battle Armor Skeletor, and some updates on Grizzlor and the Palace Guards. Who can figure out the hint for the April figure? If you’ve got a guess, leave a reply!
Hey gang,
A few new MOTUC updates for you.
We just got in early samples of Buzz-Off in package. Note that we will see if there is time to turn his helmet around in package. Still pending.
Got some new images of Battle Armor Skeletor as well with the chest plates and axe. Still not 100% final, but getting closer. Check out those purple feet just like fans demanded!
Grizzlor’s head is removable. Earlier we had thought it would not be. Looks like I spoke to soon!
The Palace Guards are slipping out a bit due to some logistics (yes we know how you feel about this word…). Look for them now at the start of 2011. Note they are not part of the 2011 subscription even if they slip out to early 2011 avail.
A lot more MOTUC greatness is coming in 2011. We should have the April figure to reveal soon. The sculpt just came in and looks fantastic. Once it is painted we’ll reveal this next figure to the fans. Here is a hint, he is a member of the Masters….
That’s it for now, see you in the toy aisles or on Mattycollector.com!
