Don't give them any ideas. Before you know it, we'll all be living that old MST3K sketch about Johnny Long Torso: the action figure sold to buyers piece by piece so the manufacturers could drive the price up through the ceiling with minimal effort.

I am definately looking forward to this multi pack coming out next May (even if all the guys faces look exactly alike).
I wish Mattycollector would put out more Legionnaires like the Cos/Brainy/Saturn Girl/LL 4-pack they did last year though. It's good for them to continue something they started, plus based on the fact that you cannot get that 4-pack anymore since they've become sell-outs, I don't think they would have a problem selling out again and again... It would be so great if they did, say, 6 more 4-pack so we could round out the entire Legion that way! LOL

So what wave(s) are around for most people in stores? We just barely got the Validus wave here, & before that we had just recently gotten the Darkseid one.

Wave 17 of DC Universe Classics has just been revealed & it's Blackest Night themed. The figures are:
White Lantern Hal Jordan Black Lantern Hal Jordan Blue Lantern the Flash Violet Lantern Wonder Woman Orange Lantern Lex Luthor Sinestro Corps Scarecrow Indigo Lantern the Atom BAF Anti-Monitor
Most of them look cool but I'd rather we go some more characters fitting the "classic/universe" idea, there seems to be way too much DC Direct overlap these days. Even with the sub-lines considering they have the GL Classics now too.

Doesn't anyone else feel a bit ripped off that DC doesn't bat an eyelash endorsing and arranging for action figures of new GL themed supporting characters (Orange Lantern Lex Luther for cryin' out loud!??) but the Legion has been around for decades and we've barely seen a figure here and there? And even for that we have to scream/plead/beg and write in hoping it will happen? So they finally do it, sort of, just to shut us up LOL

Just an FYI to any Legion fans who were interested, Mattel recently announced in one of their Q&As on The Fwoosh web site that the Legion 12-pack has now been pushed back to late summer 2011.
Oddly enough, they also admitted the original intent was to have it out by the holidays of this year.

We have to wait until Summer now? I have a bad feeling that with all the delays most if not all of these LOSH figures will end up getting unreleased.

The delay on the 12 pack is that supposedly the Four Horsemen needed more time to craft all of the figures (only 3 or 4 figures were in prototype stage when this was announced at Comicon.)
Also rumors are that the reason wave 17 is the deputy lantern wave (called the rainbow wave on the mattycollector boards and a wave made up primarily of repaints and tweaks) is because again the Four Horsemen have a growing backlog and apparently need more time to turn out the figures.

It's a 12-pack, so either they're all released or not.

Yeah, like Colossal Boy said, with the addition of the Green Lantern Classics line and whatever else they sculpt for Mattel, the Four Horsemen have been getting backlogged. So the Legion 12-pack especially, as an online exclusive, is probably less of a priority than all the stuff that will make it to retail.
Considering the gamble on releasing the 12-pack anyway, I'd rather they take their time and get everything just right.

I'm keenly aware it's a 12-pack but it's not as if toys 1st announced to be in a multi-pack have ever been later rescheduled to another wave, had been downsized, cancelled altogether or a mix of those options.
