I am part of a the team behind ToyWiki , where we are trying to list all we know about the toys we love to collect. I have just posted the listings for DC Direct including a page for the Legion of Super Heroes action figures. While I have some info listed the page would greatly benefit from someone with actual skill in writing to flesh out the story and info behind each figure. What we really need is the UPC codes from the packaging and good quality photos that the wiki could use on this page. Ther is also a page for Pocket Superheroes but it is more or less a place holder until I can get to a breakdown of the line. If any here have kept their figures MOC or have the cards and could supply those UPCs or pictures please add to our work or contact me and I will help you. Thanks

The full list is: Brainiac 5 Chameleon Boy Colossal Boy Cosmic Boy Ferro Lad Invisible Kid Lightning Lad Mon-El Saturn Girl Star Boy Sun Boy Timber Wolf Ultra Boy
I know Mordru was released as part of their LSH series but I placed him with the other Mages and Msytics to flesh out that listing.
Thanks for the info I'll add the UPCs to our listings.

I have them listed under DCU: Superman but Superboy & Supergirl are displayed as part of my LSH collection, they fit in better there. Krypto & Streaky are in a box somewhere. (I am a BIG fan of Pre Boot put could do without the LSP

recent interview with DC Direct Chief George Brewer mentions Cockrum and Legion Figs many times as possibilities... http://www.newsarama.com/comics/080604-s-articulate-brewer.html i would eat them up!!!! Cockrum Phantom Girl, Princess Projectra, Shrinking Violet, Wildfire, Timber Wolf, Element Lad, Lightning Lad, Colossal Boy, Light Lass, Karate Kid, Star Boy, Dream Girl, Duo Damsel... did i forget anybody? then we'd need a Grell Cosmic Boy, Dawnstar, and much-maligned Tyroc.

Me too, and I've never collected figures like this before! A Cockrum Duo Damsel figurine would be the living end!

I would love it if they tried to do Legion figures again and actually made some girls.
That would be cool.

I really hope they start with characters who haven't been done yet, but I'd be surprised if Lightning Lad, Saturn Girl, Cosmic Boy aren't in the first wave.
Not that I don't want those characters in the Cockrum/Grell outfits, but I'd *much* rather see Legionnaires who haven't received the plastic touch yet done first.
Maybe one founder a wave?
I think Phantom Girl should be in the inaugural wave. She's the Legionnairess I think of first when I see the words 'Cockrum/Grell' costumes. Not to mention, she was Dave's favorite. Also, this era was pretty much her peak as a character, at least for me.

I might even buy two of each Legionnaire.One set to look at,And one set to play with.
A Cockrum version of Timber Wolf,Wildfire and Karate Kid would be a dream come true.
But would not be complete without his versions of Cham,Gim,Condo,D.D.,Dreamy,Jan,Garth,Ayla,P.G., Jeckie,Imra,Shady,Violet and Thom.
And would it be to much to ask for Tyr,Molecule Master,Hunter,Infectious Lass,Porcupine Pete and Devil-Fish.
And Last but Least A Cockrum Legion Cruiser Would really be SWEET.
I tried to rip their soul out.I tried to make them forget Superman. But they won't.

I think ANY female character should be finally published... my male action figures are so lonely, and Saturn Girl is so cold towards them :-)

I agree. They could just ooze waves of LSH figures. Not to mention Mattel's Justice League Unlimited line has the MASTER DC LICENSE, and they're just sitting on it. Kind of pointless.

I like the idea so much I'd buy two. <ba><dump><bump> [/b]I'd actually buy 3 (minimum). One would be of Lu before she split -- then I'd repaint the other two in solid orange and solid violet. It will be interesting to see whether Mattel or DCD produces the next Legion figure -- I'm just hoping they concentrate on classic versions.

Doubt that DCD would EVER produce an Infectiouss Lass or Molecule Master figure, but I think any character Dave created for the Legion would make a great figure -- even Devilfish!
