I picked up all of them so far. I dig them . . .for what they are.

Exactly my point. No, they arent OMG SPEKTAKULAR! but they are cheap figs and great characters we havent seen in this scale.

Now, if I could get my hands on a Black Adam I would have all the first wave and two of the four three packs. Have those other two 3 packs even shown up yet?

I'm pretty sure Black Adam did not come out yet. I've opened new cases, and never saw a single one of him.
I've got two of the three packs now.

Which means we wont get them because I'm pretty sure I'm the only guy buying these. :-|

Nope I plan to get them all. I have gotten everything they have released so far and I like them as a seperate collection. And I can still Customise SHS figures into DC characters to fit in with the new marvel line.

I just have a problem with buying these things when they don't move well. Perhaps on clearance I'll take all extra Guy Gardeners and make a GL Corps

I see there is one Black Adam Amazon.com among some other new ones. Of course at exorbanent prices.

I just saw the 1st wave of 3 packs at my KMart. However the paint apps weren't very good especially for $14.99. They didn't have any singles either.

I tried the DCPI number on

but it isn't being recognized.
Is there any other way to look for availability at Target?

I have found Black Adam's absence to be pretty annoying, and at this point, I've seen everybody else in the first series. I think he's supposed to be in a forthcoming two-pack with Shazam (Captain Marvel), but I've already got him. Still, if that's what it takes to get Black Adam at some point, so be it.

Finally saw some evidence of wave 3 of DC Universe Classics at a semi-remote Target yesterday, so that's marginally encouraging, but either Mattel or the stores still need to get their act together more regarding supply.

Is Wal-Mart carrying them, if so i haven't seen them there yet ?

Also is TRU carrying the 3 pks, i haven't seen them at my local yet either ?

I really like The Question as a character and gordo will jump in with my CID Joes. Green Arrow is another good little figure and Clark Kent will be background fodder. Nice to see the lower price point.

Yeah TRU is carrying them. Saw the 3-packs and I think they're $12.99.

They don't have hip or wrist articulation, and Capt. Marvel's hands dwarf his head.

Here is a list of what figures were on the back

Guy Gardner
Capt. Marvel
Atom (Non Ray Palmer)
Adam Strange
Black Hand
Reverse Flash

Kind of a strange selection of B and C list characters.

Yeah.... Atom Adam Strange and Black Hand are the weirdest to me.

You can kind of rationalize the others.
Guy Gardner looks like a Green Lantern and the kids who would look at these now what a Green Lantern is. Reverse Flash looks like a yellow Flash, again, the kids would king of get that. Capt. Marvel, looks Superman-ish.

The others... are a bit harder... especially Adam Strange. I barely know who he is.

I didn't know who Firestorm, Dr. Fate, or Green Arrow were when I was a kid, that didn't make me want their Super Powers figures any less. Come to think of it, I didn't know any GI Joes when they were first released and I still knew which ones I wanted and which I didn't.

Actually I heard he was either delayed or wasn't in the 1st series at all.
1st wave singles: Shazam, Zoom, Guy Gardner, Adam Strange
Now I'm seeing people online saying they find Black Hand & the Atom.

JBYRDD · **Posted:** Thu Sep 18, 2008 11:27 pm

I haven't seen any other figures besides Shazaam, Zoom and the Rocket guy, only at TRU, nowhere else, WTF, just poor distribution i guess. :-/

I need a Commish Gordon and GCPD pack.

MJTanner · **Posted:** Fri Sep 19, 2008 4:46 pm

I was about to buy the Gordon pack when I looked more closely at the cops with him... The paint is horrible on these guys. The paint jobs on the cheapo army figures in the military aisle look like art compared to these guys.

Saw Black Adam (and the rest of Wave 2) at Midtown Comics in Manhattan yesterday when I was walking around the city with my new girlfriend. He was priced at $19.99.
