Toys R Us just sent me a shipping notice. I'll post some pics once he arrives.

Man, I didnt realize there were so many more GL figures in this series. Really excited to get Atrocitus

Atrocitus (and Dex-Starr) has arrived! I'm not as happy with him as I was with Hero World Kilowog. He comes with an "actionator" dial in his back that let's you spin his left hand (where he holds his spinning staff). While Dex-Starr looks too big and clunky (IMO) to be JLU-compatible, Atrocitus still manages to look pretty cool next to my JLU John Stewart.

I'll post some pics tonight.

I just want to remind people that Kmart.com has had MANY issues in the past. Order at the risk of getting a differnt toy from the same line and lot of trouble returning it. You could get the Cyborg one but just saying .....

yea. not entirely sure. But its listed on there 3 times. And a couple of them say FREE SHIPPING

The DCIH 3-pack, the Krona GL movie figure, a freaking bicycle for my wife: every transaction I've ever tried on Kmart.com has resulted in me getting the WRONG item and battling with customer service to get my money back. Their inventory system is uber-vague. ANY Green Lantern figure has the same code in their system. They literally said to me "We can't promise that you'll get exactly what you ordered from us."

Run. Run screaming from Kmart.com and warn the other villagers!

Just a heads up. Atrocitus is in stock on TRU's website.

Just had a most perturbing visit to ToysRUs. The Atrocitus is not any of their shelves. When I attempted to order at customer service they said Atrocitus is not able to be purchased and they stated the sku is discontinued. I was told they will not be reordered. Then she told me their invintory said they had 9 on the shelf, no they didn't. I really hope they are totally wrong.

I'm thinking there may be something to that. I was watching a TRU listing on ebay and they took it down with 3 left. I wonder what the deal is. Even if it was discontinued, wouldn't they sell through their remaining stock?

Has anyone found out what the issue was with Atrocitus yet?

Bryan Long · **Posted:** Mon Jan 23, 2012 5:57 am

I'm curious about that, too. I have him, because I ordered him. But I still wonder what happened. Did someone decide that a kid's figure based on a savage, hate-filled villain who spits blood was a bad idea?

I'm willing to bet that its just being held back until after the Animated series starts airing in its regular time slot.

That is the tie in and how he will be recognized. As the "main villain", not as the lava/blood spewing rage machine in the comics.

Fisher price has a habit of releasing an item for a very short window, allowing that item to disappear and then using it to refresh cases for the next year and a half.

Atrocitus (and GL Sinestro) will be back on toy shelves, give it time.

This same thing happened with Imaginext, and it will continue to happen with future FP releases.

I've been going through some of the other sites to check out Toy Fair pics and I came across these:

Apparently, we'll be getting more new Hero World figures, but mostly they are just repaints ...
