Reading the comments (and links) and the Omnicom, it seems to me that everyone involved (McDonalds, WB/DC, and the fans/consumers) would have been better off if they had produced another set of 8 "girl toys" action figures that included (so as to not get too obscure) -
(Of course I'd have missed not having Persuader even more if they went this route...but still!)

Just grabbed the entire set on ebay for 17.99 with free shipping.
i'll continue to buy Happy Meals for extras however. My goal is to grab two sets total. i'll have the set i just ordered in mint condition and i'll have the other set that's opened.

I went on EBay last night and got a full set for "buy it now" of $21 US, shipping included. That saves me the aggravation of going to McDonald's, and the temptation to eat McDonald's food. When they arrive, they will become the property of the 5-year old, like everything in the house. I can't believe I will have a Lightning Lad, a Validus and a Mano in da' house!

I had Mom stop by the McD's along the way over. They were only selling the toys with the Happy Meals. Mom took one for the team, and got a meal too. Had to insist on two different toys; They definitely didn't have their A-team working this evening.
I ended up with LL and Mano, and we both got generic bags. There's another store on Main Street Willi, I'll have Mom or one of my sisters check there. And if I get a good enough deal, I may still get the set off the 'Bay. The extra's will go to Alex.

I'm halfway there now (thanks to my lovely wife). I got Lightning Lad and Mano at lunchtime today, and my wife had to run some errands tonight. When she returned home, she presented me with the Superman & Timber Wolf figures she got at a different McDonalds! I love my wife!!!
I see by the bags they are #1-4 of the 8 if you check the bags' numbering. Makes me wonder if the stores are trying to only release them in order...you know, open box #1 (with Superman & Timber Wolf in it until the supply is gone, then open box #2 with LL & Mano. Maybe I'm reading too much into it.
I've also got to say, I love how the Happy Meal Box has the Interlac on it!!!

I still haven't done anything with mine. I'm still thinking about it. Maybe I'll get a Happy Meal later today, open the toy and see how fun it is, then decide if I *must* get more to open or not...

I finally have all of the toys... FINALLY! They got so fed up with me asking to trade toys that since they got a new box in today, they let me exchange all my extras for missing ones... They only had like two braniacs, so I had to dig and dig, but now I have a full set =DD
