DC heroes and pets

Postby **LordBlackCat** » Wed Oct 12, 2016 1:25 pm

I'm guessing everybody who think this style doesn't fit DC was born after the 80s? This style is perfect for 60s to early 80s DC and Superfriends. Back when, there was even a group of pets called "The Legion of Super Pets" and okay comics are weird.

Ah, thanks Big! Yeah i mean, i guess because it's not "exactly" a consistent reference it's hard to miss for people who don't follow it all the time.

Somewhat related - can you imagine if they had incorporated Batmite into the Christopher Nolan Batman universe? lol

Or if Snyder had Mr. Mxyzptlk in the new Batman vs Superman?

Right in the nostalgia. Harley's Hyena, Ace, and Kyrpto are so cute ><
Joker Fish though...he's kinda creepy.

Haha, I can't even imagine BatMite in Nolan-verse, that hurts my head.

On the other hand, I honestly wouldn't be THAT shocked if Snyder had a crazy tattooed Mxyzptlk taunting Superman or a crazy hobo looking BatMite whispering in Batman's ear during some of the crazy visions.

I was born before the 80s, and I'm not impressed...

HT is getting Hal Jordan it looks like and a different version of the Catwoman costume! lol

Again, I gotta find the picture for these. I hope they start popping up in stores soon.

Dex Starr should have been in this set somehow.

Postby **BigHow** » Mon Nov 07, 2016 9:37 pm

Yup, definitely getting a case of these. C'hp! Can't say no to a space squirrel with a power ring!

Postby **NESSNODDER** » Mon Nov 07, 2016 10:13 pm

I DIG THAT BATMAN. DIG THAT JOKER FISH TOO.

Overall, not too thrilled with these. It's mostly the character selection. Hope we see a more diverse (read: characters that haven't all ready been done before) lineup in the future. Honestly, I just want a friggin' Two-Face mini to go with my Penguin and Riddler from Wave 1! Will have to get both of those Catwomans though. Really dig both designs. Do you guys think we'll see DC Universe Wave 3, or will this be the new paradigm?

Is HT the only one with exclusives for this set? Anyone know the ratios on the HT exclusives? When does this series come out?

My thoughts exactly. Hello, alien squirrel.

So I guess I have to be "that" guy: pretty sure that's not Ch'p as I think it's B'dg who replaced Ch'p years ago.

Heh, I'm pretty sure you're right too. But C'hp will always be my #1 alien squirrel ring slinger.

This set is showing up in HT on the West Coast. FYI in case you wanted the exclusives.

Postby **keyese** » Thu Nov 17, 2016 4:57 pm

Any word on the rarities for these? I'm hoping the exclusives won't be too terrible to find or 1/72s.

Postby **RogueSolo** » Thu Nov 17, 2016 6:23 pm

Saw a box back on FB, think it only goes up to 36.

Postby **professorratigan** » Fri Nov 18, 2016 12:36 am

The only ones I'm really interested in are the two Catwomans. REALLY want that Hot Topic Animated Catwoman. Hope they won't be hard to get!

Postby **JohnnyPOP** » Fri Nov 18, 2016 9:42 am

I'm glad this set is starting to hit! I hope we get in a case at work quicker than we have other series in the past.

Postby **Shalee04** » Fri Nov 18, 2016 11:09 am

Another set I must track them all down. :eek:

Ok here is first pass at TOP LAYER OF HOT TOPIC LAYOUT - I have not personally confirmed. Just from an IG Friend on west coast - east coast has not received these! Good Luck! Use at your own risk!

Same person has told me they went to a different hot topic and there were common in the spots of these chase positions - so becareful! This layout appears to be the typical layout we are used to seeing...

Oh no Hal is 1/24? Thanks for posting this though!

Postby **babasdada** » Fri Nov 18, 2016 3:47 pm

Fixed the layout - some are unconfirmed, and added bottom layer! - again use at your own risk!!!!!

Postby **Lilbrimer23** » Fri Nov 18, 2016 6:45 pm

I have no idea how to post pics but we just bought a full gamestop case at think geek!

Well GS owns Think Greek, so that makes sense.
Any exclusives?

I know they are owned by the same company. Think geek here gets more exclusives than gamestop does. Lol. Got the exclusive batman, catwoman, and Ace the bat dog! Very cool series

I can confirm that gamestop cases bottom row are the exact same as ht according to your map anyway.

Is there anyone looking for help on these? I'm not collecting this series, so I'm free to help out if requested.

I am. But I'm only looking for the heroes + Harley and not the pets. (Except maybe Krpyto.) I'd love any help I can get.

Postby **HowardTheDuck** » Mon Nov 21, 2016 12:16 pm

I just really wanted a Krypto. Love him.

Postby **Sunshine29102** » Mon Nov 21, 2016 1:45 pm

Looking for all of these, plus the Hyena x2 for Harley

Postby **BigHow** » Mon Nov 21, 2016 5:16 pm

Bought a whole bunch of boxes at Hot Topic and I thankfully pulled both Green Lantern and his Chipmunk buddy. I also ended up with some extras. I've got:

- HT Catwoman
- HT Catwoman's Cat
- Harley's Hyena

If anyone's up for trading, shoot me a PM! I'm mostly looking for Aquaman, his Seahorse, GS Batman, or GS Ace the Bathound. But I'm also open to trading for some of my older Horror and Sci Fi wants.

Postby **XXDCXBATMAN** » Fri Nov 25, 2016 2:35 pm

Found these at 2 Hot Topics and a Gamestop today, I got all the HT Exclusives, all the Gamestop exclusives except Batman, Joker Fish, and Krypto, very happy with my pulls.

Congrats Michael!

Postby **SCF** » Fri Nov 25, 2016 10:34 pm

Found a fresh case at GameStop today. Grabbed front two boxes off of the top layer. Got Bud the hyena and Isis the cat.
