At least they're consistent

I'm now past the white screen, but I'm stuck at the billing screen. Whenever I try to process it errors out.

Yeah, the site seems to have completely crashed.

I picked up the Kilowog wave over the weekend. Shark is kind of lame, but the rest of the wave is pure gold (though I would have preferred the Neal Adams style Deadman). Kilowog is probably the nicest of the build a figures yet.

My wave 10 set showed up yesterday. I haven't had a chance to open them yet, but so far they look awesome.
The Joker is the highlight for me. I had seen the pictures, which looked awesome. And I loved the hammer from the Super Powers figure. But I hadn't realized he came with a laughing fish. Nice touch.
This is the one wave where I really don't care about the build a figure though. Imperiax seems to be really well done, but...
...I have no idea who he is (and I follow DC pretty closely).
Conversely wave 11 is a the first wave where I don't care for a number of the characters, but I HAVE to get the build a figure. I'm looking forward to getting Kilowog.

I'm not sure yet if I successfully ordered my he-man (missed him first time around). I placed the order, and it seemed to hang. I ended up getting a confirmation screen with an error message on it.
I did get the confirmation email though. But when I try to pull up the order info on the website using the order number, I get an error message.

As a DC geek, wow. I have a major love/hate with this line. I love the figures, but hate the accessibility of it.
I would love to get Trigon, but at the very least I need the Blue Devil.

I was just thinking about potential C&C figures, and I would really love to see an Anti-monitor figure show up in the scale of Chemo. I know the character hasn't appeared in a ton of story lines, but I would like to think that he's still a better known figure then Imperiax. And in the hands of the 4 horsemen he would be awesome.

I"m just seeing this now. Wow, awesome set. Brent, I don't suppose you're planning on getting it? If it looks like there's an extra set I am totally in.

I'm one of the subscribers who chose to get all 4 sent out at the end of the year. Fingers are crossed that I'll actually get them, and not find out that they didn't hold them for me. At the moment it wouldn't surprise me though.

Kinda good news. Unfortunately Beast Boy is part of the elusive wave 10, so it may be quite difficult to put together a full Titans lineup anyhow.
One gripe about the titans figures - the "kids" are far too small. Putting Kid Flash next to Cyborg and Starfire looks pretty ridiculous. I wish the smaller figures weren't quite as small, or they just stuck with a common body size. I can't tell from the pics I've seen, but I'm guessing Beast Boy is also small. Not a big deal in his case as he's a smaller character. But that flash really doesn't fit in.

I thought that Mattel had made some statements about wave 10 being much more accessible then wave 5 was? From the bits I'm hearing and seeing on ebay, it almost seems as though the opposite is the case.
It's pretty frustrating. This is actually the first wave where I don't care about the C&C figure. But other then the black Batman I actually want all the figures

I wouldn't mind getting brimstone, but have no interest in the figures needed to build him. A couple of them are actually pretty cool, but because they went with the animated style heads (on the regular DCUC bodies), I don't really like the look or think they fit in with the rest of the series.

I just saw the pics of the upcoming Mattycollector 2-pack. Pretty nice. I don't really care about B'wanna Beast (I think that's his name), but the Animal Man is a great addition.
