I think Kilowog is included as a ‘this is the oldest figure we’ve made which has not yet been offered as a single.’ Kilowog was avialable in a 3 pack with GL Stewart and GL Tomar Re, but not again.

I’m a super delegate.

Also, a dirty hyrax. But that’s neither here nor there.

Mattel has misinterpreted again with Kilowog, the character was discussed on the boards, but in a “wouldn’t it be great to use “the Batman” Green Lantern body with the Kilowog head to get an in scale figure” way.

OK, so we’re all voting. Can you tell us who the Super Delegates are so we can lobby them?

You know, I keep forgetting how many members of the Legion showed up in that episode. I keep thinking its just Brainiac5 and Bouncing Boy, when there are a ton of them in the fight scene near the end. Might make a good argument to put them into the JLU line.

I agree with you Brainlock. Not only do I want the LOSH, I think they’d we extremely easy for Mattel to make in the JLU scale. The reason I’d prefer them in the JLU line as opposed to the DCIH line, is just that JLU has a more classic silver age look to them, and I think that just pegs the Legion so well. It’s always frustrated me that with JLU they can only release a small handful of figures per wave (I think this is due to having to run every character by WB) when another line like DCIH can have 50 in a year… UGh. So alot of people get defensive because they feel that the LOSH will take the slot of one of their desired figures. Personally, I’m in this for the DCU, not for the Timm-verse, but to each his own. Hopefully everyone will see everyone that they want, LOSH included.

speaking of adult/blue SuperGirl, what about the LEGION from that ep? Considering the fan demand for figures from the LoSH series, why not incorporate them into JLU, it IS the animated DCU line, is it not?

I think Bouncing Boy is probably the main “new” body that needs to be made. Not many characters can use that, but same can be said about Darkseid, the apes (Grodd, Humanite), or Rocket Red. At least Vigilante’s torso can be re-used for SHAZAM!

Superfriend, I think the voting is an excellent idea! On a side note, I was kind of ho-hum when I heard that Sand was being made, but now he’s one of my favorite figures… go figure. LOL. Digressing… I do think Mattel has been listening as well, and in the recent voting poll I noticed that Adult Supergirl in Blue was MEGA REQUESTED and I want to thank everyone for that because she has always been one of my biggest requests since childhood, so when we got the one we have, I was really deflated. The iron purse was the coup de grace. That being said, not only is Mattel making fan requested characters, but they are also making repaints to represent more classic looks (ie Batman) or more show specific colors (ie Batman). This is a huge step in the right direction. Thanks again for putting all this together!!!
