I think He-Man is next year. But that schedule can change and Dave is the AD for that line, so he knows better than I do. He's definitely on the development roster though. We had other characters to flesh out the lineup before doing He-Man again.

I invested in every 1/6 Batman villain statue. So I'm really quite irritated to see a Mr. Freeze and Riddler bust come out while the 1/6 line I supported is seemingly slowing down or fizzling out.

In the town hall was there any mention of a future 1/6 version of Freeze, Riddler or Penguin? I'm not holding out hope but it doesn't seem like an unreasonable ask to get some answers on what if any 1/6 Batman villains may be on the horizon for those of us who were collecting the line.

I had at least hoped to get the 4 major Batman villains in the Super Powers line. I got Joker and Catwoman, but am still very much interested in a classic Riddler and Penguin. I'm also still holding out hope for more "classic" repaints of Two-Face and Poison Ivy (although that one might need some slight re-sculpts...like boots. Ha).

All that I've ever heard was the same "this doesn't mean there won't be 1/6 versions of the character". No actual confirmations to my knowledge other than classic Deathstroke but who knows when that will happen.

I'll believe it when I see it. Even some concept art at this point would be something to get excited about. Until we get some WIP shots, I think even a 2027 release is being optimistic. That said, if the sculpt looks great, and we can get a classic Perez Deathstroke in both 1/6 & 1/4 scale, it will be worth the wait for me personally. I've been holding out for this since the utterly disappointing sideshow Deathstroker PF was released.

On a positive note, I would definitely purchase a 1/6 Deathstroke in his classic costume.

I second this idea. This has a lot of potential for marketing a ‘special’ Super Powers piece annually (or more). MacFarlane Toys is capitalizing on the pent up demand for these characters. Companies should consider the ages of collectors and the nostalgia for these characters that is very strong at the moment.

The characters you mentioned are also at the top of my list - I would buy all of them. In addition, I would add Firestorm, Cyborg, Raven, Nightwing in his OG costume (yes, it could be amazing if done well), Guy Gardener (bowl cut), and Power Girl to name a few.

This company seems to be trying to find its footing again with testing new scales, etc. Maybe it’s time to consider a back to basics approach and doing what they do best.

I would be interested in your list as well.
