So we've got eight unmade members from the production list

Stripe, Gyspy, Crimson Avenger, Creeper, Dr. Mid-Nite, Johnny Thunder and Thunderbolt, and Speedy.

What do you think will happen? Stripe's supposed to be a single so he's out obviously.

Do you think we'll get a cape or coat version of Avenger? Will they release Creeper, given he's been released before in another line (though Harley was as well)? Will they do Speedy?

Or will they put in another big 7 member as a filler?

Thoughts?

(That checklist above's been hanging in my drive for years. Lots of people worked on that, including our very own Veil)

Well, it's got to be: Gyspy (already confirmed), Crimson Avenger, Creeper, Dr. Mid-Nite, Speedy, Johnny Thunder and Thunderbolt (which would explain why it's a 7 pack in a 6-pack box)

I, for one, hope they go with the "classic" Crimson Avenger (as pictured in your checklist).

I prefer the Crimson Avenger as he appeared in Patriot Act. But to be honest, I'm more concerned about about the scale of these figures.

I worry that they'll use the Clock King body for Johnny Thunder.

Plus, after seeing the old Kenner Nightwing in the back of Penguin 3-pack; I now worry that Creeper might end up being a straight reissue.

I mean, you guys know Matty. There's always a catch.

All Im Hoping For Are Gypsy & Creeper. Which Gypsy's Already Confirmed.

Out of curiosity though, wouldn't it be easier for you guys in the states to grab a TNBA Creeper? If that's the case, wouldn't you want the spot to go to somebody else?

Yes, but we probably won't know (if we are getting the Kenner Creeper) until it's too late.

Mattel has not released ANY Kenner/Hasbro figures. All of the Mattel Batman figures were their own sculpts. The Hasbro Nightwing was a "hero waiting for a bus" vanilla pose. The Mattel sculpt had the bent elbow and knees.

Creeper would not be a Hasbro/Kenner figure.

Knowing that we won't be getting the Kenner Creeper is a relief.

But I never said they had released the Kenner Nightwing. Just that they have him.

'Cause I saw him.

See...

Waht straight reissue? Mattel has never made a Creepeer.

Glad to see I'm not the only one who cant sleep....I think RR was just concerned that Mattel would try to cut corners by using the old Hasbro/Kenner mold. Since everything thus far has been from Mattel I think it's safe (I said THINK) to say we will be getting a new sculpt of some sort for creeper.

I think the Avenger will be the one pictured, somehow using the gentleman Ghost cape with the hat removed.

I'm just curious how they will pull off Thunderbolt...will he stand on his own or attatch to Johnny somehow?

Whatever the case may be..I'm pumped we are getting the last members

By the way...great job Christophe!!

Cookie, he meant Hasbro's, assuming Mattel possesses the molds (like Nightwing on that cardback)

I think they'll give us the exact 7 that everyone knows is left. Crimson Avenger will probably be mish mash of the two looks we saw him in because they have the coat and hat and a suit body. Creeper will hopefully be new but I wouldn't put it past them, and Johnny and the Thunderbolt will be a waste but will finish the group.

LOL. I absolutely love how you ended that post j1. Cracked me up.

In no way shape or form do I want the Hasbro Creeper. Neither the one that was already released or a Mattel re-release of the Hasbro one.

It needs to be:
Creeper
Crimson Avenger
Johnny Thunder
Thunderbolt
Dr. Midnight
Speedy
Gypsy

The only other 2 not already made that I could see qualifying as "card carrying members" are Long Shadow and Kairo. I doubt it will include either of them.

I was thinking about that, and ocurred to me that maybe the Thunderbolt could be somehow atached to Johnny (to stand), we discussed before how they should make Thunderbolt since the guys is allways levitating it could be a solution and make them look like 2 in one.Just like in this image:
