- Kevin Spacey as Lex Luthor w/ extra wigs
- Ned Beatty as Otis (chase)
- Valerie Perrine as Ms. Teschmaucher
- Parker Posey as Kitty Kowalski (chase)
- Marlon Brando as Jor-El

Se, I'd be all over a line like this. Superman needs GOOD movie figures that LOOK like the actors that playd them. Just an idea.

Wha? No Zod?

Jayspawn was obviously too busy kneeling to even notice who he was kneeling before, Rocketboy.

Something gives me the feeling that Greneral Zod and his groupies would sell better than Ms. Teschmaucher, Otis and Kitty Kowalski. :p

And General Zod!

"YOU WILL BOW DOWN BEFORE ME JOR-EL!!!"

Might as well include Non and Ursa as well!

Spotted the House of El 2pack at TRU yesterday, box has a beveled window at the front, wasn't expecting that. It looks ok, but I don't have $20 interest in it at this point, they had a stack of 'em, I may change my mind but not so far.

If you collect the Corgis, keep an eye out for the case assortment that has the Redbird and TwoFace car as it also has some paint variations. In the leftovers of what was stocked from that case I found a 1940's Batmobile in blue and the Hush Batmobile (the one with really really huge wings) in black. I haven't spotted these on ebay but there are a few auctions for the 1960's Batmobile in blue.

I didn't see this one but I know there were some 1960's batmobiles there, I may have missed the blue paint since I wasn't paying attention to them.

Yeah, I saw all of the leftovers you mentioned at WM last time I was there. :( I am really not happy with the distribution of this line.

Me neither, it's too random and the assortments that do make it out here seem 80% old, 20% new. There were a ton of new ones recently released and I doubt I'll ever see them in person.

By the way, if you want the camo 1:18 Tumbler, the Hotwheels site has it available for $20.

DC Superheroes wave 3 are now popping up. I haven't seen them yet as the stores in my area suck hardcore, but i have them on pre-order, so it's all good.

Also, picked up the House of El 2-pack a few weeks ago. I kinda liked it.

Aren't we at wave 4 now? 1st wave is Batman, Bane, Scarecrow, & Killer Croc; 2nd wave is Superman, Supergirl, Bizarro, & Doomsday; 3rd wave is Batman S3, Robin (repaint), Mister Freeze, & Azrael.

I saw DCSH Wave 4 Superman at Target yesterday, those cheap fools took the 7" Batman line's Batman/Superman 2pack figure and gave it a horrific new paint job to go with its crappy old sculpt. All the other figures in the wave - evil Supergirl, Metallo, and Lex Luthor - were MIA.
