About Newt
Purveyor of Pop Culture, Professor of Pro Wrestling and award winning amateur scientist, Newton Gimmick founded and currently runs InfiniteHollywood.com. Newton has written for various websites such as 411mania and TNAWrestlingNews, before venturing out to stake his own claim of cyberspace in 2007. One of many web writers not afraid to profess his love of 80's cartoons, toys, pseudo sports and Jem. What makes Newton unique from the others? He does it all from the comfort of his custom, Denver: The Last Dinosaur Snuggie.


About Wesitron
Being the odd man out was always hard for Wesitron. Born a southpaw on the mean streets of the Bluegrass State, he learned to fight and claw for acceptance against his oppressors. “Lefties are people, too” they condescended. And with a smirk does he sip his Diet Dr. Thunder, for he is both cunning and refined. A smirk, dear friends, which always points to the left.


About Jon
The newest member of the crew, Jon's our resident Beastmaster. Not just because he looks like Marc Singer, but because he lives with a guinea pig. Also, one time he wrestled bare with bear hands. Yeah, think about that one for a minute.


About Rob
What does one do with a Master’s degree in English? Why, write movie reviews, of course! Rob lives in scenic Michigan, where, during the 13 months of winter his state is blessed with, he keeps himself warm watching good, bad, and ugly science fiction films. No premise is too shaky, no prequel is too shady, and no rubber monster is too, er, rubbery to dissuade his viewing.


About Bill
Bill White has worked with nearly every comic book publisher on the planet. His highlights include comics for Casper, Donald Duck and Scooby-Doo! His work has also been in the animation field where he contributed on Ren & Stimpy and Inspector Gadget, among others. Any artwork on this site that's worth a damn, has probably been drawn by Bill! Check out his website at: Bill White Cartoons and tell him how much you love his artwork here!


So here's a list of DC Universe Classics figures I've never seen. This does not include figures I've seen once or twice but passed on because they had bad paint aps/were broken in the package. Some of those include Booster Gold whom I saw once, but had random paint splotches all over him and looked as though his leg was severely warped and Flash who apparently sped off like his namesake never to adorn shelves near me again.

Wave 5:
Riddler
Black Lightning
Amazo
Atom
Eradicator

Wave 8:
Mr. Terrific
Hawkgirl
Gentleman Ghost
Parademon A or B
Commander Steel
Vigilante
Dr. Fate (Variant)

Wave 9:
Wildcat A or B
Black Canary
Mantis A or B

Wave 10:
Joker
Batman
Beast Boy
Forager
Joker
Man-Bat
Power Girl
Robotman

That's a lot of figures that I've never seen. Again, it's not so much even that I haven't seen all of these guys but it's the rarity of which I've seen the other figures. I saw Blue Beetle once. So yes, it's very annoying. Never having seen guys like Gentleman Ghost or even Vigilante at retail is frustrating. It was shortly after Christmas last year that I saw Wave 7 at retail... It's approaching Christmas the next year and I still haven't seen Wave 8 at retail. That's mind numbingly strange to me.

Obviously some of these figures can be found online at reasonable prices, but with DCUC I prefer to look at them in store. With any toyline you should at least see the figures at retail from time to time. One or two ultra rare figures is one thing, but DCUC is unique in having whole WAVES never show up. It's baffling.
