Pretty sure those are just pictures of the standard DCUC releases from a few years back. Batman and Supes have their Super Powers outfits on the back instead of the original attire they got released. I doubt they'd choose just 50 characters to go on the back to make it look cool. They are DCUC figs.

Soo are they releasing those figures on the back of the Super Powers box? I'd love to get my hands on John Stewart and Deathstroke. They already did in the DCUC line over the years. The last figures being released were Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, Riddler (Hal repaint) I forget the other two, bit I think one was a good costume Superman. The Batman is lighter that DCUC Series 1. And his cowl is all blue. (no black on the front) it's more like the last 2-Pack, but without the battle damage on the bat symbol. And that DC Collectables Arkham Copperhead looks pretty sweet.

Didn't Target have an exclusive Kenner 4pack? 4-Pack of what? There were a few multi-Packs at Target, TNBA and I think STAS sets. But I think they were all under the Hasbro brand name.

I thought there was a Worlds Finest one wit Batman and The Joker and Superman and Lex Luthor that was only available at Target

I doubt they'd choose just 50 characters to go on the back to make it look cool. That's exactly what they did, actually. This Super Powers line was meant as a sendoff for Mattel's DC stuff, and the theme was a throwback to the original DC figure line that many people had as a kid (hence Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, and Kalibak all having their SP colors, and Riddler being a GL repaint with mismatched colors akin to the original figure). It's just an homage, nothing more. I doubt Mattel's going to re-release 50 figures in Super Powers packaging.

Yes only the last 6 on Matty are on the Super Powers tribute carding. All the rest of the Super Powers figures were released over the years on the regular DCUC carding. 4-Pack of what? There were a few multi-Packs at Target, TNBA and I think STAS sets. But I think they were all under the Hasbro brand name. I thought there was a Worlds Finest one wit Batman and The Joker and Superman and Lex Luthor that was only available at Target I have it, but I don't remember if it was a Target or TRU set. I know the Gotham Knights set was a Target set. (Batman, Nightwing, Robin, Batgirl)

Alright, thanks PJ and thank you Haggar. I appreciate the help guys.
I feel ya Jamie, There's a collectable shop not far from me that has the DCUC version of Deathstroke but the price is up there. I'll pull the trigger one day.

That Origins Red Hood looks SO nice. 'twas my favorite part of the game, so I'm glad they made a figure of it. If my Copperhead were to break like that, I might cry, though. Biggie Bads seems to be slacking; that three-pack and the City four-pack appear to be coming out to shops, but their preorders seem to be months away. Y'all are lucky to have good stores nearby. Still waiting on an Electrocutioner, DC Collectibles...

Anyone hear any news on the DC Direct Batman TAS line? Waves 1 and 2 should be out around Nov/Dec. Waves 3 and 4 were shown at SDCC and should be out around March/April. That's pretty much all we know right now.

Whereas Shartimus Prime always highlights how great the figures are (when, in fact, some may not be). All these YouTube reviewers are to be taken with a grain of salt, IMO. That said, I need a Wonder Woman, so whichever version I get, I'll be happy. If I get a Super Powers version, I'll repaint the wristbands and leave it at that.

I was bored earlier and looked up some DCUC prices on Ebay.....Whoo boy. I am seriously glad I kept up with this line for the most part......some figures seem to go for substantial prices.
