Re: Batman: Arkham City - DC Direct - Series 1 action figures
I hope they do a Talia

^ Actually, they did very clearly state which figures were in which wave - and when they are due out in stores too.

I guess you must've been too much in awe of the figures to notice those cards![]()
anybody else think that catwomen's face doesn't look as attractive as the in game model.

Well, apparently you didn't go to NYCC in person because Hush and most of those cards were only there on preview night.![]()
I'm sure the unflattering lighting in that booth along with the unflattering pose have made her look worse off than she actually looks in person.anybody else think that catwomen's face doesn't look as attractive as the in game model.
I doubt it'd be Penguin - him being shown is kinda a way to maintain interest in the line. Releasing him early would mean we'd know nothing of wave 3, meaning less interest and less PROFIT.But notice wave 2 has FOUR figures in it. I'm thinking when wave 1 is resolicited it will have four figures now too. Perhaps even lonely o'l Penguin?
My guess is that Two Face is added to Wave 1. Wave 2 as is. Ras, Nightwing and Strange added to Penguin in Wave 3 ... or just Ras and Nightwing with a Batman variant (if they're hellbent on a Batman in every wave ... TDKR Batman is probably too much to ask).
Since Deluxe waves seem to be 2-figures (Croc and Freeze in Wave 1)... add Clayface or Grundy to Deluxe Wave 2 (with Titan Joker). The other in Deluxe Wave 3 ... with those one-armed thugs.
That would leave Strange (if not in 3), Deadshot, Talia, Hatter, Black Mask, Calendar Man and Azrael unproduced ... and maybe Wayne, Gordon, Aaron Cash. Which leaves a couple of additional waves possible.

Q: The new Arkham City wave 1 has only 3 figures. Will this be the future of DC Direct, 3 figure waves?
A: No. Mr. Freeze was planned for that wave and then moved out.
Just read an old-ish article over on AFI - someone there went to NYCC and managed to get an interview with DCD.
One of his questions was:
So this explains why there are only 3 figures in wave 1.
Seems like they must've taken Freeze out after decideing to do deluxe waves to run alongside the regular waves.
As much as I love the Bane figure we have from Arkham Asylum, now that DCD have shown us deluxe waves for Arkham City I really want them to do a bigger, deluxe version of him.
I won't be upset if they never do it - but I'd be extremely happy if they did!
