I do recall a Toyman proto popping up on Ebay last year, though...so at least he may have been tooled up. Would have been nice to get that Savage Earth Superman too... =8^/ Does anyone have any specific references to Mattel's hints on releasing those other figures? Finding reliable JLU info these days has been maddening. =X^/ I always sold my extra figures to my local comic shop. They would then sell them to little kids for a buck or two. =8^) Vandal Savage, Mongul, Toyman…those were the three primary villains who didn’t make it.

They're seriously the hardest plastic of any of the guys in my entire collection. Also, did you notice how hard Speedy’s legs are in that seven pack?

I got into toy collecting way, way late in this series' lifespan and was resultingly unable to find a single one because of how rarely they got packaged with other characters in later waves. Meanwhile, I have a decent sized handful of Batmans and Supermans. I’m not surprised you only have one Martian Manhunter.

Nice to have, but not essential. Somehow there are still about twenty official League members who have figures out that I don't own. (I really should have bought Waverider when he was warming pegs all over the place.) Much and all as I’ve loved the line, everything since they released the Question has been gravy for me.
