— May 21, 2008 Leave a Comment
Update: Become a fan of DC Universe Classics in our DC Universe Classics Community.
DC Univserse Classics is the super-articulated line of 6″ collectible DC action figures from Mattel you may have heard of. I have a few of them, and I have to say they are really great toys and probably the closest thing we will get to Marvel Legends versions of DC characters.
Here is a list of upcoming waves, including 2, 3, 4, 5 and a wave of 2 packs. Wave 2 is out now, but they are really scarce in my area since almost no stores are stocking them. Still I have heard of the showing up in several places.
Each wave comes with a build-a-figure or “Collect-To-Connect” figure as Mattel seems to be calling it. Wave 4 is actually a Wal-Mart exclusive wave, and the 2 packs are exclusive to Toys R Us.
