DCUC9 packaged pics

I’ll let y’all get back to arguing about Transformers 2 in just a second…first I wanted to make sure you’d seen the DCUC9 packaged images Mattel just posted on their Facebook page (note the odd “First time in 6 inch!” on Guardian’s blister…funny!).

Enjoy!

    That Green Arrow packaging is pretty much the best ever.

    @Pete: As much as I hate figures posed with their weapons in hand, I have to agree in this case…

    LOVE that Green Arrow! Wow! I really really really want to start collecting DCUC again. lol damn you mattel!

    Deadshot looks AMAZING! I like the Blue Wildcat as well! Good stuff…i’m happy to see this line is getting better.

    Hmmm, wonder how Black Canary will look like on a scaled die cast Harley? Guess there’s only one way to find out…Looks like the Kirby Mantis has arigid cape ??? Deadshot & both Wildcats all ROCK !!! Not too sure about the Chemo CnC, though….

    That’s a fail if Mantis has a plastic cape.

    I want this wholoe series, like, bad.

    They’re doing an awesome job on in package posing. Not too keen on Guardian, but I guess every wave has to have a stinkpile in it. I’m hoping I get this wave as far in advance as I got wave 8 from BBTS. I felt so special =P

  8. The Flash III

    Awesome, you can even see Canary’s sonic scream on the plastic. Nice job, Mattel.

    I sooo wish I had a credit card so I could pre-order this wave!

    What? Why? o_o

    Pre-posed figures are prone to bendage/breakage…

  12. Eric

    06.26.2009 19.17

    This wave is the best yet. I want these now!!!!

  13. PrfktTear

    06.26.2009 19.22

    I’m super excited about Chemo! Also having Green Arrow is going to be really nice. I’ll feel like my “Justice League” is one step closer to being complete… now we just need Martian Manhunter!!!

    Is Chemo the largest C&C figure we’ve gotten?

  15. Newton Gimmick

    06.26.2009 20.55

    Chemo is probably the bulkiest but he’s not going to be the tallest.

  16. Santo

    06.26.2009 21.30

    there seems to always be the one that ends up on the bottom shelf…vigilante was last place in wave 8 , guardian is that one for me in this wave

  17. Ant

    06.26.2009 23.14

    I’m getting the canary, the cat and the arrow. y’all can keep the rest.

  18. PresidentJuggernaut

    06.26.2009 23.20

    Deadshot and Green Arrow are the one’s for me. The robotic super powers Mantis looks cool too.

  19. Wes

    06.26.2009 23.34

    That Guardian figure looks terrible (kinda like they took leftover Dr. Fates and stripped them of everything that made them look remotely interesting), but most of the others look sweet. And those Green Arrow and Black Canary figures are probably the only figures to ever make me feel like I might need a second to keep MOC!

  20. lolcat

    06.27.2009 0.30

    I only want black Wildcat

  21. Fengschwing

    06.27.2009 3.04

    I’m in agreement on Guardian, for a character with great potential, his figure appears very lackluster.

  22. captainzero

    06.27.2009 5.21

    Oh, man… I’m so glad to get The Guardian.
    If you’re going to hit the villains with anything … it might as well be a shield.

    Maybe not the best selection on how they painted him… but I’m really going to be glad they made the figure. (As you can tell from the posts… most of you aren’t too keen on him.) Me?? I’m really glad.!!
    Maybe they’ll make another one (I hope) that you guys will like better.
    The Golden helmet and with a yellow yoke
    as shown on the DCUC site…might have worked better.
    I loved The Demon ..and now, The Guardian.

  23. captainzero

    06.27.2009 5.26

    Oh, BTW,… I really love the whole wave.
    Green Arrow, Black Canary, Mantis, Wildcat, Deadshot,… everybody.
    Mattel and the 4H have done it again.!!
    I’ve always said this is the best action figure line EVER!!

  24. Motorthing

    06.27.2009 5.39

    More wallet-battering, hair-tearing, ulcer-inducing collecting fun from this side of the atlantic trying to complete this set….I only just got caught up on the Atom-Smasher wave, haven’t seen 8 yet and this is coming down the pipe….yoy.

    I need to take up a less expensive hobby like heroin.

  25. Fengschwing

    06.27.2009 5.50

    Amen Motorthing, I guess you’re in the UK too? Well done on getting Atom Smasher together. I just managed to bag the Kalibak wave and my back is still sore healing up from the sutures after they took the kidney I had to sell to buy them all.

    Guardian would improve vastly with a gold helm.

    Chemo is staring at me from Wildcat’s box.

  27. Mark

    06.27.2009 6.58

    I really want Black Adam.

    @Jim, if you really want to collect some you should just go for it as long as you have the money to buy them and the room to store them….but like anything don’t get obsessed with it.

  28. PresidentJuggernaut

    06.27.2009 10.20

    Holy poop, I didn’t even see Black Adam down there. That scarab necklace is pretty awesome.

  29. Ant

    06.27.2009 11.13

    @ Motorthing and that heroin call. my ma hates that i collect action figures, so when i get a box of something cool off ebay and my ma finds it, she’s like ‘what is it…’ and i say it’s a gun wrapped in drugs. i think my parents would actually prefer a drug habit to my childish pursuits…

  30. DrNightmare

    06.27.2009 12.45

    Lol, my parents were just nosy as hell, so I’d say disturbing things too when I’d get packages. Normally I wouldn’t be such an ass but damn, parents need to learn when to fuck off, you know?

  31. Santo

    06.27.2009 12.56

    my mom learned to justify my hobby with the whole “it could be worst , he could be on drugs or in jail” , now i have my own place and my fiancee listens to the jonas brothers and we enjoy the fact that we both refuse to grow up…so when a box of dc figures shows up , she’s happy for me!…she thinks aquaman is a gay , but i take the good with the bad

  32. Mark

    06.27.2009 15.16

    @Motorthing and anyone else in the UK Play.com uk have pre-orders for Black Adam and several others.

    @Santo, my parents say the same thing….I don’t smoke or drink alcohol at all, if I want to spend my hard earned money that I have saved on figures or anything else cool its my decission. At the end of the day our collecting isn’t hurting anyone at least we are putting money back into the eccomony.

  33. Fengschwing

    06.27.2009 18.18

    @Mark, pricey but I spose the postage is free, it’ll be interesting to see how quickly Play sell out, if they even do sell out…

  34. Mark

    06.27.2009 19.08

    yeah as cool as a dr fate would be and a few others i just want Back Adam

  35. eric

    06.27.2009 19.15

    Is it just me or is THe Super Powers version of Mantis big and tall?

  36. Drunken Fist

    I’ve been going back and looking at those pics a few times daily since they were posted a couple of days ago. They made me a lot more excited about wave 9 than I was; wave 8 was my favorite since wave 3, and the “newness” still hasn’t worn off of those yet for me, so I wasn’t really anticipating Wave 9 too much before I saw these pics. Deadshot is still my number one want from this wave. He looks perfect. And I’m not a MOC collector, but it’s mighty tempting to pick up an extra Green Arrow to display that way, as he looks so cool in that package!

    This may have to end up being my first complete wave of DCUC, I love every figure there.

  38. captainzero

    06.29.2009 0.45

    And this looks like Wave 10…from Wal-you’ll never find them here-Mart!! Begin to start tearing up!!

    27084-72801 – N7179 – DCU MAN-BAT
    27084-72802 – N7184 – DCU BATMAN
    27084-72807 – N7285 – DCU JOKER
    27084-72808 – N7286 – DCU ROBOT MAN
    27084-72809 – N7287 – DCU BEAST BOY
    27084-72810 – N7289 – DCU POWER GIRL

    This line-up has been rumored for quite awhile, albeit oddly missing the expected Forager figure. Since only 6 are listed, and we’ve been told this would be a 7 figure wave, we’re assuming that Forager will be in there. Since the listed Batman will be a variant, much like last year’s Eradicator Superman, I’m making a guess that it might be a simple repaint to make a classic “Bob Kane” Batman.

    **Update** Confirming that Forager WILL be in that assortment.

    Wow!! Robotman and Forager!! Yikes!!

  39. Esbat

    Wow, those are some exciting packaging. Shame I’ll be opening my Canary, Arrow, and Deadshot.

  40. PrfktTear

    06.30.2009 18.11

    Its a shame I can’t even find Wave 8 yet! I was down in Eastgrenwich, RI for a graduation party and stopped at the Wally Super Center in Coventry, and alas, no Wave 8′s, still on wave 7 there. Maybe by August! ;-)

  42. Joel
