Matthew K has graciously provided a guest review of the DC Universe Classics Wave 18 Toyman, part of his ongoing series of wave 18 reviews. You can check out the previous installments for Samurai, El Dorado, and Black Vulcan, and discuss the wave in this thread at the Fwoosh.
Would you look at this? We made the deadline for the latest installment of Ask Matty. Big thanks to the folks at Mattel!
1) We’re pretty psyched to have Swamp Thing finally joining the DC Universe Classics line! Can you tell us more about the “endoskeletal” articulation – is that an existing DCUC body under there, or a new base just from Swamp Thing? Will the underlying figure have the standard DCUC points of articulation, like bicep, waist, wrist, and thigh swivels?
Our friends at MTV Geek have got an exclusive first look at DC Universe Classics Wave 19 – the JSA wave!
Wave 19 will feature classic Wesley Dodds Sandman, Al Pratt Atom, Carter Hall Hawkman, Lord Naga from Kobra, Magog, Stargirl, and the Collect & Connect STRIPE.
Lately DCUC has featured themed lineups, to many a fan’s aggravation as they patiently wait to complete their various classic teams. While the upcoming Wave 19 is themed as well, it features mostly classic interpretations of the Justice Society of America and their villains. That’s right, a JSA wave – and we’ve got both the first pics AND the complete bios for all of the figures in the lineup, including a shot of the Collect & Connect figure: S.T.R.I.P.E.!
Holy Blackest Night – here’s the DC Universe Classics 17 Star Sapphire Wonder Woman! With the impending arrival of DCUC 17, I thought I’d wet some appetites with pics of the SS Wonder Woman I bought from an eBay seller in China.
Hey folks – just a quick reminder that Monday 5/16 is the MattyCollector sales date. Masters of the Universe Classics has Catra plus She-Ra and two other re-issues. The first of the MattyCollector exclusive Green Lantern Movie Masters, Green Man, is also up for sale.
Mattel is also experimenting with retail figures going online individually with Green Lantern Classics wave 2. From what I hear, the Dex-Starr, B’dg, and Despotellis 3-pack is the shortpacked item, so don’t miss your chance to get it while you can. Here’s a quick link to the bundle page. Happy shopping!
