DC Goodness from Mattel

Every time I go to a super-center (like Wal-Mart or Target), I'll always have to make a pass by the toy aisle to see if there are any new DC goodies that catch my eye. I really don't know why I bother at Wal-Mart, because generally, if it isn't related to a Batman movie, Wal-Mart doesn't bother to carry it.

I actually found this one at Toys R Us, a place I don't go to very often, because their DC selection is usually 'boo':
BATGIRL BARBIE 2008
I like this one. Although it's not true to the color scheme she wore in the comics (which they did last time, anyway), I love the black look on her. Something slick about it. (Never cared for that Batgirl logo, thought...)

This one I actually did find at Wal-Mart (color me shocked!):
KELLY and TOMMY as
CATWOMAN and BATMAN
I have no idea who the hell Kelly and Tommy are, but these were just cute!! So I wasted some money on them!

The rest of the swag came from Target:
DC UNIVERSE: JUSTICE LEAGUE UNLIMITED
Fan Collection 3Pack
FIRE, GREEN LANTERN & ICE
I don't know if these are new or not, but I liked having Fire and Ice in one pack. They just go together.

DC UNIVERSE INFINITE HEROES
CRISIS: series 1
SHAZAM, GUY GARDNER,
PROFESSOR ZOOM, ADAM STRANGE

Sure as heck don't know what I need these for, but I'm a sucker for DC stuff. Just wish I could find the Atom, Black Hand or Black Adam. I want them all!!

    Wow. You found a Fire & Ice set? I'm still looking. I wish I knew you were looking for a Black Adam. I saw him not that long ago at the Target near me. I'll check in this week sometime and see if they still have him. So far, I've only picked up the Adam Strange. I'm only going to buy the ones that I like.

    "I'm only going to buy the ones that I like."

    What are you trying to say? I don't understand the concept...

    Am I the only person who HATES Adam Strange's current helmet?

    No, you're not alone in your helmet hatred. Adam Strange without a fin on his helmet is like a dark and brooding Superman movie ... oh wait.

    Those Infinite Heroes figures do nothing for me, although I will still have a hard time resisting the JSA-related figures. But I generally find them ugly. But the DC Universe Classics ... that's a coat of another color.

    A friend of mine picked me up a JLU pack with The Question. That's the stuff.

    I found Black Hand and the Atom at Toys R Us in Cleveland. You can find Black Adam on Amazon. There is also Hush and a few others now too.

    My Target in Cleveland carries the Fire and Ice too.
