WOW! Look at the cleveage on her!
I know that sounds perverted, but after that godawful "uni-boob" they had on Starfire I'm really glad to see they're actually studying female anatomy.
She will be the Wal-Mart exclusive Wave 10 along with a new Joker and others we have not seen yet.

I’ve all but given up on this line. I stopped collecting full waves after wave 4. There have been a few I wanted since then, but I almost never see them at retail. I never saw the last Wal-Mart wave at my Wal-Marts and I’m not expecting to find the upcoming one there either. Mattel has had distribution issues since this line started and it never got any better.
I like to see my figures before I buy them. QC has also been a issue with Mattel lately as well. I would hate to buy Online and get a figure like the Batgirl in the Batgirl/Azrael two pack with the horrible Bat logo paint app or a Robin with one hand larger than the other or a blue Sinestro with yellow bleeding through.

As a Manager at the world's largest retailer I can assure you, a lot of the distribution issues is not Mattels. The problem is Wal-Mart. Mattel will send truck loads of product to the Wal-Mart DCs (distribution center) and then it's up to the DC's to send them to the stores.
My store has had 10 cases on order for the last two months.
But I go ahead and buy from Corner Store Comics, So far I've lucked out and all of the figures have been good.
I am concearned for Wave 10 though.. time will tell if these will be found..

Also, during the Mattel panel it was stated that Wal-mart has increased it's orders so that Wave 10 will have better distribution

I was able to pick up the DCUC 5 pack. It's awesome. I ordered 6 more so hopefully they will come in and I can start picking them up for those of you that want one!

The packaging is nice but I don’t really care. DCUC has been all but impossible to find at retail since Wave 1. I stopped collecting them all after Wave 4 and have picked up only ones I wanted since then. Wave 11 and 12 have nothing I want and most of what I did want has been done, except for some key Batman rogues.
DCUIH is even harder to find at retail and again I already got the Batman ones, all on eBay except for the 3 packs. The line had potential but the Marvel Legends in the same scales is so much better so the new packaging won’t help.
