One thing I thought would be perfect is a Raven/Beast Boy set to help round out the Titans. Both characters that would be a tough sell at retail, but I think collectors would happily pick that up.
Raven and Beast Boy are what I'd call a C character, maybe even a low B. If goofy ass characters like Killer Moth and D characters like Etrigan the Demon sell well at retail, then I see no reason why Raven and Beast Boy couldn't either. When they're released, I'd expect them to be single carded (although I could see a special Beast Boy set with multiple green animals as a Matty exclusive).
I was thinking the same thing. I think Beast Boy and Raven are more popular characters than a lot of what's been released so far. Killer Moth!? Seriously. I was actually really dissapointed to see the Starfire pack as an exclusive as well - she cost an arm and a leg to get loose on Ebay. I'd much rather see exclusives with extra accessories or things like the WT Monkey, so the average Joe can still get the characters they want and the collecotrs can pay bigger bucks for something that's not available anywhere else.
Pretty sure I'll be resorting to ebay for the Wave 4 stuff I want (Wonder Woman and her variant) and the wave 7 stuff (Flash, Kid Flash, Captain Cold). I think the only figure I really wanted from wave 6 was Shazam, but I already have the Alex Ross, so I might just pass on it.
Are you talking about Wonder Woman and Artemis? I swear I've seen both at Target in the last week, and am working on a trade with a guy on Fwoosh that for sure has Artemis. Let me know if you want me to pick these up for ya.
