Folks walking the tiny (ahem) floor at the San-Diego Comic Con this weekend got a sneak peak at the 197 10th and 11th wave of Mattel’s DC Universe Classics line! While wave 10 continues to add another New God to it’s ranks, Wave 11 starts a whole new year of figures you’ll be stomping over kids in Wal-Mart for… That’s right, wave 11 introduces the Green Lantern Corps (and probably the multi-hued combatants forthcoming as well…)!

Thanks to actionfigurepics.com for the tasty info and pic-age!

Behind the glass this year fans got a glimpse of:


WAVE 10

• Joker, with Cane, Laughing Fish, Playing Cards, and Giganto-Mallet!

• Batman, 90′s Michael Keaton-Style… with… giant… folding Bat-Computer thing?

• Power Girl, with Giant Bust, and Thighs with Walnut-Crushing-Power!

• Forager- with Shield and Wrist Blaster

• Beast Boy, Doom Patrol Style, with “I Transform into this!” Bird!

• Robotman, Doom Patrol Style, with “Important Device on My Chest” Accessory

• Man-Bat, with “I hope someone cares” Action!

• The Build-A-Figure appears to be none other than the Jack Kirby-esque “IMPERIEX”!


WAVE 11

• Steppenwolf, In his Green and Red costumes (gotta love the variants!), packed with various swords and axes of villainy!

• The Question, Vic Sage Style… while the figure doesn’t show if the mask comes off, it too fails to capture the perfect Salmon colored shirt of the hit 80′s book.

• Cyborg Superman, Sinestro Corps Style, albeit with no shown battery.

• Deadman, with “Collar to Put Nightwing to Shame!” Action.

• John Stewart, with Green Constructs of a fist and large gun!

• Katma Tui, with Green Constructs of a beam sword, and shield!

• Shark!, With…. I’m sorry. Look at the picture of this…. this is a waste of plastic.

• The Build-A-Figure appears to be the Mighty Poozer Smackin’ Kilowog!


FABULOUS TWO-PACKS!

• “Animal Instinct!” – Includes Grant Morrison’s favvy tiny leather jacket clad Animal Man and everyone’s favorite ‘WTF’ character… B’wana Beast!

• “Sinestro Corps!” – Includes the dentist’s favorite lady in yellow, Karu-Sil (with trusty yellow construct of her playful pups) and the bizzaro-esque Romat Ru!


SUPER DUPER GIFT PACK!
