series 13 is garbage. no batman characters. No reason to buy
DC is much more than just Batman.
This shows how little you really know about the DCU.
These are a bunch of c listers at best. Superboy yeah, head of him. Don't like him. Same with Donna. The rest are fairly unknowns to me at least...,
No offense but I didn't realize that
your knowledge of the DCU is the standard for releasing figures in this line. Just cause you don't know who they are doesn't make any less of a good choice for a figure.
Donna Troy has been around for longer than most people on this board have been born. She's been an important character in the DCU for years. She deserves a figure before a lot of other characters that have already have received figures.
Just cause they aren't "A list" characters doesn't mean they suck. Do you really want another Batman variant?
Trigon is a GREAT Titan's villain.
and for 99.99% of the "kids" Mattel thinks actually buy this line. Unless they've been on Brave and the Bold or JLU, kids won't know them.
Sounds like more than just kids get their DCU info from cartoons.
For the record,
Cheetah was on JL and Superfriends.
Blue Beetle was on the Bave and the Bold a few times and even has a few figures in that line. Your right kids won't know who he is.
Cyclotron is a "super powers" figure and we all know how those don't sell.
Do you really think kids knew who Mantis, Vigilante, Firestorm, Forager, "Ted Kord" Blue Beetle, Mr. Terrific, Guardian, Black Adam, ...were? That didn't stop the toys from selling.
These are all great figures...great B-C listers. No A-listers at all.
Which is how we KNOW that this is a pure collector's line regardless of the crap Mattel might say. Even Wal-Mart's top brass consider's it a collectible:

Mattel considers it a collectible line too. Their target customer for this line
IS collectors. They confirmed it even at SDCC. We'd never even be getting these kind of characters if it wasn't. We'd be stuck with about 100 Batman and Superman figures by now.
The only disappointment with this wave is the fact that there is no New Gods figures.
