DC Universe Classics - Mad Love & Mightiest Mortals PREVIEW

Not to much DC Universe Classics news these days, but something interesting has been buzzing for the last couple days.  I'm not sure that an official announcement has been made by Mattel, but there seem to be 2 new DCUC 2 packs making their way to your friendly neighbourhood department store and now there are pictures to confirm it. 



The first is a Joker and Harley Quinn pack called "Mad Love".   You will see that Joker is a re-paint from the DCUC Wave 10 series.  This time he is supporting a black and white tuxedo.  Harley Quinn looks pretty much the same as the original DCUC wave 2 release.  Lets hope this time, Mattel has not shaded her face with blue paint this time which was a HUGE complaint of mine as well as many other collectors.  It looks as though you will get all the same accessories that came with these action figures in their original release. 



Next up we have the "Mightiest Mortals" two pack which features the very VERY hard to get Black Adam from wave 9 and Captain Marval, aka Shazam from wave 6.  Both action figures appear to be basically the same as their original release.  As far as I can tell, there are no accessories included in this set.  Those who missed out on the rare Black Adam should be all over this baby. 

For those into the repaints or looking for a improved Harley Quinn, the Mad Love two pack may be right up your alley.  Those also looking to finally get a Black Adam of their very own will now have the chance. 

If you're looking for DC Universe Classics action figures, there is no better place to find them online than eBay.  You will find such a huge variety, be sure to check out eBay by clicking here

DC Universe Classics Wave 17 carded

The next DC Universe Classics wave is almost upon us and mattel has released some pictures carded pictures of the wave 17 line up.  Green Lantern and Blackest Night fans will surely be excited for this set.  You can expect to find DCUC 17 available for sale towards summer 2011.  Now, lets take a look:

First up, Indigo Lantern - The Atom



 








Sinestro Corps - Scarecrow who has a very cool looking head sculp.  I really, REALLY hope that Mattel releases a classic version of Scarecrow soon!



And finally Star Sapphire Wonder Woman



Im not entirely sure how this wave will end up doing.  It is filled with A list character but the bad part, they are in one time costumes.
