I'd be surprised if the 1990s Mister Freeze from the animated series wasn't a heavy influence on Tweeterhead. Most people would just be confused by earlier incarnations of that character.

No Harley? Do you only collect female superheroes?

I think Tweeterhead Super powers line will become the prized line of my collection as well. I can see myself own 20+ of their statue in just a few years. Tweeterhead is the only company out there that provides balanced options (male/female, popularity of character etc). The diversity of characters in superpower line makes me look forward to their 2019 reveals.

Good point, 30/70 then.

Almost always I favor heroes over villains. The two Harley Quinn pieces I have (Kotobukiya Bishoujo and Joelle Jones DC Cover Girl) I got for about half of MSRP. I have similar feelings about Catwoman and Poison Ivy. If Tweeterheads Harley gets clearance way Supergirl did I'd buy her, but I'm fine missing out despite it being an amazing piece.

The big thing is diversity and if XM makes characters I want I'll be there the way I'm there for Tweeterhead. I cannot wait for chad to show off so many characters in 2019 and 2020. I'll finally get my Big Barda and Mary Marvel I thought I'd never get, and obviously Power Girl is a must t make the line complete to me.

I can't wait for a Balent Catwoman. Big Barda too!

1. Wonder Woman

3. Superman

5. Flash
6. Green Lantern
7. Cyborg

On top of that there also doing...

8. Lobo
9. Shazam
10. Black Adam
11. Darkseid
12. Joker
13. Harley
14. Deathstroke


I think that's a pretty good start...
TH appears to be the 1st company to give us the original 7 JL members, plus the Titans. It's cool that we have 2 companies to pick and choose from.

I thought I had heard rumblings about that as well, but Balent-era Catwoman comes well after 1990.

Though for the record, the Balent-era Catwoman is easily - easily - my favorite Catwoman costume. The current one being solicited by tweeterhead is beautiful, but doesn't say Catwoman to me personally, that's not my era. And the black leather suit she's had for the last decade is just boring and lazy IMO.

And neither is doing a Sinestro... I know most people put Black Adam with Shazam, but for me the Black Adam/Sinestro bromance will always be the better pairing. Ever since Geoff Johns put those two guys together, it was like peanut butter and jelly. Best villain 1-2 punch ever? No question!!
