Howdy all,

Boy I hope I spelled that right...

OK, gang, what JL tchoch...chotch...tzcho...

What JL stuff do you want to see in toy stores? I want action figures for Batman, Hawkgirl, and Green Lantern (am I the ONLY one out here who really likes John Stewart?). Note that I want BATMAN, not Action, Lightining, Ninja-Kung-Fu-Grip, Urban Strike, Rocket Sled, Night Vision, Elludium PU-36 Explosive Space Modulator Batman. Just Batman. Cape and cowl. Black and gray and yellow. Maybe a little version of his grappling hook launcher, if it's not a choking hazard for the kids out there. BUT THAT'S IT!!! (Hope the toy companies are listening...)

I may want one for J'onn J'onzz as well. I need new toys for my computer monitor at work.

BTW, does anybody know if they did any action figures for Supergirl or Dr. Fate from STAS? THERE'S two heroes I'd like to see on JL in guest spots.

Supergirl was indeed made, intially only for Europe I think, but she came over (with Metallo and Bizarro) in a four pack you may be able to find on Ebay. Jokerinc is a good site to check out as they keep records of all figures. Dr. Fate never made it to plastic.

Supergirl wasn't as great as fans were hoping for. Her stance was rather stiff (in order for her space-gear to fit on) and her mini-skirt, the tight thing that looked like saranwrap over her legs :)was changed to a normal, Lois-type ruffley skirt. Her legs were immobile and her skirt was plastic and hard to prevent any kids from...peeking (if you get my drift!). I haven't got one, but apparently she'll be rereleased in another four pack with Batgirl, Poison Ivy and a new exculsive LiveWire sometime in Feb.

As for Jl toys and merchandise, I hope we see the entire cast done well without rediculous accessories or color-schemes. All seven members should look their best, and I would like to see a new Joker (based more on ROTJ flashback designs) figure, as well as Cheetah,

( I warned you!) Darkseid, Brainiac (Hopefully he won't look too different- I like his S: TAS designs) Poison Ivy in her TNBA look (If that is how she looks on JL) and whoever else they will go up against.





Just seeing the toys well made with articulation in the knees and the other Hasbro usaul spots would make me happy!

HERE, HERE ACE!!!!

Give me the figures and JUST the figures as they are portrayed in the animated feature. I don't want all these little gadgets and "themes" on the figures. :rolleyes:

I think this is done to appeal to a much younger audience and to keep their interest in something that would otherwise just STAND there!!! How about us more "mature" collectors??

I don't care if they do have crazy weapons--all you have to do is chuck them.

I want Hasbro to get off their butts and do as many characters as they can. In addition to all seven League members I'm particularly looking forward to seeing Poison Ivy (TNBA version), Star Sapphire, the Shade, the Manhunter robots, the Ultra-Humanite, Felix Faust, Aquaman, Solomon Grundy, Cheetah, and Lex Luthor (in his dandy new armor) make it to the shelves.

Okay, I'll take a new Joker figure too. If they insist on making one.

Which they will.
