Action League Scarecrow, Clayface and Black Lightning
Lobsterman was on the ball and spotted some new Brave and the Bold Action League figures that have startedappearing on ebay. Clayface, Black Lightning and Scarecrow are apparently all sculpted and waiting to join DC’s growing battle between good and evil. Looks like Toxin’s going to have to update the Brave and the Bold Action League Good Guy and Bad Guy polls.
Action League Injustice League
Toxin posted some pictures from an overseas seller featuring the Injustice League action league figures featuring repaints of Plastic Man, Atom (Dyna-Mite), and Red Tornado (Silver Cyclone). They’re great, sensible repaints of Brave and the Bold Action League figures, but hopefully more news on these figures will be coming soon!

First off, DCUC Wave 12 is announced in Toyfare (Actionfigurepics.com has the rundown of the characters) revealing Copperhead, DeSaad, Doctor Mid-Nite, Eclipso, Iron, Mary Marvel, Spectre and Darkseid as the Collect and Connect. A distinctive, but generally low-level bad guy, two more Kirby/New World heavy hitters (both of which do double duty as rounding out the Super Powers Collection roster), two more JSA’ers, the first Metal Man, and another member of the Marvel Family… all in all a pretty successful roster. I still think the highlight is Eclipso though.
The Fwoosh finishes it’s interview with Scott Neitlich of Mattel and there’s actually some brief Infinite Heroes talk. The 2010 theme will not be limited to Infinite Heroes, but will run through all the Mattel DC lines and it will likely be introduced in the fall. There won’t be a proof of purchase clipping program though, so no more hunting for Anti-Monitor points I suppose.
And finally, Airheads is having a Batman Brave and the Bold theme, with 6 individual wrappers (Batman, Blue Beetle, Aquaman, Red Tornado, Green Arrow, and Plastic Man), but they’ve also got some fun and games on their site like a quiz to find what Brave and the Bold character you are, or the painting screen that lets you paint your own Batman!
Action League Galleries are up!
We’ve posted the start of our Brave and the Bold Action League Gallery up. There’s a gallery for the Toys R Us Arch Rivals six-pack featuring Batman, Blue Beetle, Aquaman, Black Manta, Kanjar Ro and the clear Gentleman Ghost, while Plastic Man is kicking off the Brave and the Bold Action League two-packs gallery. Once we’ve finished the first part of Hasbro’s Marvel Handful of Heroes gallery, we’ll fix up the Action League wiki page with figures shown on the SDCC 2009 poster. In the meantime, you can join the Action League Discussion over on the message board.
