MINI_MYTE Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 If DC Direct eventually dedcides to do boxed sets like they did with the Pocket Superheroes line which teams or groupings should they do? Keep the pack to a minimum of 6 MMs like the Giant Sized X-men set was. Here are some of my dream sets. Teen Titans:Beast Boy, Cyborg, Starfire, Raven, Wonder Girl and Superboy. Arkham Asylum:Poison Ivy, Scarecrow, Two-face, Mr. Freeze, Mad Hatter and the Ventriloquist The Legion of Super-Heroes: Cosmic Boy, Saturn Girl, Live Wire, Braniac 5, Kid Quantum 2 and M'onel Green Lantern Corps: Gantheth, Salakk, Katma Tui, Tomar Tu, Kyle Rayner and John Stewart (original costume) The New Gods: 2.5" Darkseid, Orion, Kalibak, Mr. Miracle, Granny Goodness and Big Barda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jatta Pake Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 I'd say ... The Secret Six: Deadshot, Catman, Scandal Savage, Ragdoll, Big Chest Knockout, and Cheshire. A special accessory can be Ragdoll's limbless Parademon-on-a-pole. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boyd Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 Second vote for the Secret Six. I'd also throw in the following: Classic Doom Patrol: Chief, Robotman, Negative Man, 2.5" Elasti-Girl, Mento, General Immortus Vertigo Doom Patrol: Chief, Robotman, Rebis, Crazy Jane, Flex Mentallo, Scissorman City of Metropolis set: Clark Kent, Lois Lane, Perry White, Jimmy Olsen, Lex Luthor (in business suit), Luthor's bodyguard Mercy City of Gotham City: Bruce Wayne (with quick-change Batman costume), Commissioner Gordon, Alfred, Barbara Gordon, Detective Bullock, Joe Chill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nervous Rex Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 I'd like to see: Flash Rogues- The Top, Mirrir Master, Captain Cold, Heatwave, Captain Boomerang, The Pied Piper. I would have put Professor Zoom,Zoom, Weather Wizard, Gorilla grodd, and The trickster, but I think they'll Probably make a regular series , so I just put a few guys in there that might not get the series treatment...........long story short.........I want all of them.

Xybot Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 Man o man ... the Sandman cast would be wicked. Heck, I'd be happy with a House Cain & Able. Other than that, classic Satellite JLA all the way. Elongated Man Firestorm Atom Black Canary Phantom Stranger Zatanna Man, that thought makes me so uber-happy.

benbacca37 Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 I like the Teen Titans and Secret Six ideas. Those I'd get. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterPL Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 If DC Direct eventually dedcides to do boxed sets like they did with the Pocket Superheroes line which teams or groupings should they do? See, when you mention "Pocket Superheroes" in the same sentence as "boxed sets," I can't help thinking "last ditch effort." :tongue: That said, I can see DCD offering sets based on Batman, Superman, and Green Lantern no problem. Historically, here's what DCD has invested in when it comes to boxed sets: The Endless Legion of Super-Heroes JSA JSA 2 JSA 3 JSA Villains Preacher WildC.A.T.S. The Dreaming Green Lanterns Gren Lanterns 2 New Teen Titans Flash Danger Girls Silver Age JLA Metal Men Smallville Dark Knight And that's just PVC sets. Big thanks to Joe Acevedo for creating and maintaining such a damn fine resource! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somebody put this guy in charge! Seriously... I could see splitting the Titans into a group of boxes, with 5 heroes and one baddie each... Titans Silver Age: Wonder Girl (Donna), Speedy (Roy), Kid Flash (Wally), Aqualad, The Herald, Mad Mod Titans Bronze Age: Cyborg, Beast Boy, Raven, Starfire, Terra, Brother Blood Titans Modern Age: Robin (Tim), Wonder Girl (Cassie), Jericho, Ravager, Kid Devil, Plasmus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reideen1313 Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 Add a another to the list: Batman & the Outsiders Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBT! Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 I know it's vertigo but .... I'd love to see 'The Endless' as a box set. T. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comedian Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 Second vote for a Classic Doom Patrol and SA Teen Titans sets. Maybe a House of Mystery set, with Cain and Abel, Swampy and some others??? But honestly, I'm not sure I would want DC to do any box sets since I would imagine 4-5-6 new sculpts would be price prohibitive for them somehow, and what you would get would be 3-4 variants and 1-2 new characters ala the Teen Titans set awhile back. Which was nice for those folks who had not been collecting up until then, but a real pain for those of us who were with DCD from day one.

AdyCarter Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 If they go the box set route, I'd LOVE to see them echo what they've been doing with the 6" figures and pack a couple of Mates in with a TPB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TITAN Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 Gotta Have A New Teen Titans Box-set to go with classic Robin in wave 2. And i'd like to see a Death In The Family Box-set with Ambassador Joker, Classic Batman and Battle Damaged (ie Dead) Jason Todd Robin.

JIrish780 Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 Oh, by the by... call it a hunch, but 5 waves have been announced, and only 2 characters from the Teen Titans (Dick Grayson Robin and Deathstroke) are announced. Teen Titans is one of DC's bread and butter properties right now, so I get the feeling this box set guess isn't that far off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxcarnage Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 Totally off the beaten path but what about a League of Extraordinary Gentlemen box set. Now that would be insane. Now that Arkham Asylum: would be cool a set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterPL Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 Gotta Have A New Teen Titans Box-set to go with classic Robin in wave 2. See, I'm thinking ORIGINAL Teen Titans (Nick Cardy era) would go better with that Dick. That'd be the original Speedy, Wonder Girl, Kid Flash, and Aqualad like DCD offered in the Pocket Superheroes line. We need an adult Dick (different domino mask, longer cape, different hair, no smile, just a grin) for NEW Teen Titans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
O.B Posted January 23, 2007 Share Posted January 23, 2007 I'd like a Kingdom Come box set, or any other story related concepts, such as Batman:return of the dark knight (frank miller batman anyone?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
you_will_forget Posted January 23, 2007 Share Posted January 23, 2007 I'd personally prefer to see a modern Outsiders wave, with Shift, Arsenal, Jade, Thunder and Grace. They'd go great with the Nightwing C3 figure (from the flyer). Mind you, that is one of my favourite minimates, at least until Harley gets here.

boonimusprime Posted January 24, 2007 Share Posted January 24, 2007 I'm going to be cynical, but here is a likely box set: Classic JLA (how about a ten pack?) Batman superman Wonder Woman Martian Manhunter Flash Green Lantern Aquaman SA Green Arrow Atom Hawkman I know many of these have been (or will be) released elsewhere, but they can do do special versions of Batman and Superman (a silver age Batman, or give him accessories we haven't had before), Wonder Woman in her SA form, a barry Allen Flash, a chance to buy Martian Manhunter without selling a kidney, etc. Other boxed sets: Superman: Battle on Apokalypse! Superman 2.5 inch Darkseid Kalibak Desaad Orion Parademon Batman: Arkham Asylum Batman Joker (straitjacket version?) Scarecrow Ventriloquist Clayface Mad Hatter Flash: Rogues Gallery Flash Reverse Flash Captain Cold Mirror Master Captain Boomerang Trickster Wonder Woman box set (this is probably a longshot) Wonder Woman Hippolyta Ares (in another form) Dr Psycho Cheetah Giganta I like the ideas people posted for Doom Patrol: Robotman Elastic Girl Negative Man Chief Monsieur Mallah (with Brain accessory!) Madame Rouge (put Mr Fantastic's arms to good use!) Another long shot, but a dream come true: JLA Villians Dr Light The Key Dr Destiny Amazo Despero Kanjar Ro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
you_will_forget Posted January 25, 2007 Share Posted January 25, 2007 Flash: Rogues Gallery Flash Reverse Flash Captain Cold Mirror Master Captain Boomerang Trickster Oh, I'd love that. Add in a Pied piper, Grodd, Heatwave and Top and I may as well just set up a direct debit to DCD. Jo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deadpool Posted January 26, 2007 Share Posted January 26, 2007 A Wacthmen box set. I would KILL for a Watchmen box set. I want me a Rorshach! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted January 27, 2007 Share Posted January 27, 2007 I think a Kingdom Come box would be a no-brainer - very obvious variants of the trinity plus some of the others, like Nightstar and Red Robin. I'd also go for a modern Teen Titans box, with OYL Robin, Wonder Girl, Kid Devil, Ravager, etc. By the way, this is my first post...hi, everybody!
