Knowing McFarlane you'll get a Batman in an Edmonton Oilers jersey long before a Justice Society character. Mixed movie/comic waves are part of the reason I stopped caring as much about the current lines. I'm not paying $40-$60 for a couple movie figures just to build a BAF/CnC I don't care much about. At least the Fat Thor wave was all movie characters. Now I just buy the one or two figures per wave I really want, and hope to catch the rest either cheap, or possibly just the BAF piece online. But being a cheapskate I have a nard time paying over $10 for just a part and paying $20 for a figure I don't want just to get a part, so it's kind of a problem, lol. And the more annoying problems, the more interested I suddenly become in Star Wars Black Series, or something else.

Honestly, I'll be glad if this line holds no interest for me. It would take a lot to surpass the depth of characters DCUC gave us, and I really don't need to be buying more lines anyway.

But a BAF mine Batmobile is so lame I'm surprised Mattel never thought of it.

Haha...burn Mattel burn!

I hear ya on the buy-em-all-for-only-a-couple-you-want scheme; hate that. If you’re making a movie like, then let it be a movie line, not a mix-mash just to extend it out to build up the fever - fans and collectors are smarter than you think

I was really hoping to see better to be honest...more along the lines of their Fortnite figures in terms of details. Best one shown is the animated one which still isn’t as good as DC Collectibles in terms of sculpt

The regular Supes isn't bad. Not a fan of the stylized Batmam. And the armored, big meh.
