    Steve is getting more love. Why don’t we have Etta Candy toys? I mean how should Etta Candy be handled in other medias?

    The scope of Imaginext's Wonder Woman family is pretty impressive. I think they've previously done a Themyscira playset, Diana's Invisible Jet (of course), Hippolyta, Ares, both Priscilla and Barbara as "Cheetah" and quite a few Wonder Woman variants.

    And now with this multi-pack, including Artemis, Donna and Hercules, the Wonder Family is expanding even further. There also seems to be some kind of pack including Zeus (and a flying lion) as well. They just need Cassie Sandsmark, Phillipus and maybe Etta Candy to round out her main allies.

    It's really amazing in comparison to the breadth of Wonder Family characters available in the main action figure lines from Mattel and DC.

    Nice set but what's the point of including Hercules? He hasn't had much of any interaction with Diana in years plus he's a public domain character. They should have included another WW villain like Giganta, Dr. Psycho, or Dr. Poison.

    I think Cheetah has four different variant figures already? That's kind of crazy for a female villain in a toyline targeted primarily to young boys.

    I've personally been a big fan of the series ever since they introduced Wonder Woman in her invisible jet. It's pretty great that they have such a plethora of female characters available and even more on the way; I would've killed for these as a kid.

    They probably already had the molding to create Hercules.

    I am surprised Giganta hasn't been made yet though.

    You're probably right. It's just weird that they used most of the New 52 cast and costumes and then there's Hercules in generic garb.

    Haha, thanks, lol.

    I thought of that many years ago reading old WW where Etta would sit there eating pounds of candy. Then she would say "Woo-woo" and go beat someone up. I always thought they needed to sell whatever she was eating, but make them in her image. In today's time period, that would be easy to do.

    It's too bad Steve is described as "soldier."

    I noticed that too. I think Fisher was trying to save on licensing fees with Steve(referring to him as "Soldier) and Hercules(public domain).

    Anybody get a Flashpoint Wonder Woman yet?

    It's one of the possibilities in the Series 4 DC Super Friends (blind) foil packs.

    I think most of these are cobbled together redeco's of previous sculpts, much the way I believe Hippolyta was...
