Hold onto your wallets. Looks like a whole bunch of stuff coming up in Feb/Mar.

I'd actually consider getting that Batman expressions pack, since I missed it the first time. I'm sure the price is probably just a placeholder, but I hope he doesn't pull any nonsense and just release a Batman figure with one or two swappable heads.

Otherwise, a relatively safe list for me, at least for the time being. Still holding out hope we'll see those remaining Nolan characters, but for now, I'm content
 
Love how Flash’s paint job on his belt isn’t even that great on the promo shot. What’s the difference between this one and the one from a year or so ago?
 
Surprise surprise, surprise! Fedex just drops off a big-ass package and I'm wondering what it is. McFarlanes "kickstarter" for the Justice League Batmobile and Batman show up. No warning or email. They need to war up, but this was an excellent surprise for the day!

Brad the DC Universe Geek already has these (has a video up on YT). Flash is apparently a little more cherry red than the last version, and the big one, the lightning bolt logo is actually outlined in black, making it better.

Jay Garrick has different boots than the last one, and has bare fists (NO other accessories), not the extended sleeves covering the back of his hands like the last version.

Gotta say, not too impressed. The Batmobile is as good as the others, but nothing better. Could have been a standard release. Took me too long to figure out the front guns are just magnet attachments. Batman can't hold the steering wheel with both hands. You can get one on it if you sit him off slightly to one side or the other. I do like the batsignal.

Seriously - couldn’t even be bothered to make the promo figure look good.

This and Jay being a GameStop exclusive…just making life difficult at this point. I’ve not even seen the latest exclusives load on GameStop’s site before they sell out.
 
Got lucky at Wal-Mart again, so happy to get my preferred Cosmic Boy at MSRP. I'm a big fan of the Legion, but especially the Legionnaires era, so this platinum had me salivating when it was revealed, but I never thought I'd find it in-store!

Maybe next time I'm at this store picking up necessaries, I'll find Zatanna. I'm definitely on a winning streak, so it's certainly possible.
 
I actually found Professor Pyg, Zatanna. and Cosmic Boy at a Wal-Mart today too. I wasn't expecting that. I bought Professor Pyg. I had him pre ordered at BBTS but cancelled that when I got home. I have to say, Zatanna looks amazing. I almost bought her. But McFarlane did a great job with this entire Wave, and Zatanna may be the best-looking female figure Todd has ever done.
 
I like that Flash with the black outline around the bolt and circle much better. The old one doesn't stand out much and is hard to identify. Man for me McFarlane is really hitting home runs here at the end. Some of my favorite versions of these characters has been done by McFarlane in the last year or two. I'll take a wait and see approach with Mattel but I may just stop collecting DC with McFarlane. Silver Age Superman and Blue Gray No Man's Land Batman are my favorite versions of the characters in toy form. I could see me playing catch up at toy shows on figures over the next few years to complete what I want in my DC Universe. Mattel will have to really, really impress me to get me to start over again. I haven't seen anything they have put out recently that blows me away so we shall see.
