View Full Version : Why no Kyle??!!!
Kyle Rayner is my favorite GL, in fact, he's my favorite DC character, period. Now, I could see not putting him in the first set, after all, you have to save something for the next one, but COME ON! How could they not at least put him in the second?!!!
Instead we get some lame-### punks like Sentinel and Hal? WEAK!
Wise up Wizkids, you do a rush job and you AT LEAST get a Kyle Rayner Unique in that set, it's not too late for you. Do it now.

Well, as far as I know, most of th figures for Cosmic Justice haven't even been confirmed, so don't count Kyle out yet, especially since he and john are probably the most commercially recognizable GL's at this point (At least I think so)
This is a little extreme, don't you think?
Instead of blindly believing every rumor posted here about what's going to be in the next DC set, why don't you just wait and see if a real 'pineapple' for the DC set actually makes it onto the forums.
Thus far, the only lists posted have all been prefaced with the fact that they are made up and have absolutely no basis in truth (yes, even the one on the Twinz, inc. website is fake ... it was made up on here as pure speculation on what could be in the next set).
And, before you go believing any list put out, consider some this: Every version of a character released thus far has been the 'current' version of the character. Flash, Robin, etc. ... why would they be any different when they produce a Green Lantern (or a Batgirl, for that matter)?
Hal, if he is in the set at all, will be a Unique. John and Kyle will likely be the REVs. Sentinel may or may not make it in as an REV, but if he does he will likely be JSA or Mystics-affiliated ... or no affiliation at all if he makes it in as a Unique (like the Jay Garrick version of Flash).
Until then, lay off the caffiene. Take your Prozac. And have some patience. They'll be plenty of time for rants after we see who'll be in the set and who won't. You certainly don't need to start doing it now ...
It's not "confimed", no, but it IS currently as confirmed as X-Plosion was a few months ago.

It's made up. It's fiction. It's entirely untrue. Rumor. Speculation.
It was created by PHicks on this forum. He prefaced it with the fact that he was just throwing it together to see what the set might possibly be like.
There is no basis in truth to it at all.
But, if you'll still believe that, I've got a Unique Venom from Clobberin' Time I could sell you ...

Hey, it's three months until launch, right? Well if we wait until THEY tell us who's in (they STILL haven't released the "official" list of X-Plosion characters), then it'll be way too late to get anything DONE about it.
I'm not here to rant, I'm here to enact change. I don't want to complain about them not putting Kyle in, I want them to realize how stupid that is, and put one in. They have three months. That's enough time to make at least a Unique, if not an REV, and get it into production.
That's all I'm asking for, and waiting three months is three months too late.

Well, let me reiterate something, that I first broke on this board last week. The only CONFIRMED figures at this point are the following:
Wonder Woman
Jon Stewart GL
Bizzaro
The Penguin (in a white tux)
Bat Girl
How do I know, because I've seen it on a Cosmic Justice Pre-order form that was sent out to retailers. A form that states that the set is being released in June.
Beyond that, there is speculation that there is going to be an Electric Blue Superman, Poison Ivy, and a mailbox Plastic man, because these were supposedly spotted last year at conventions.
Now, there you go. 5 Confirmed, 3 speculated. Anything beyond that, only WK knows for sure.
And, how exactly is it that you know that they haven't already put Kyle in, Ohoni? Do you have any actual proof? Or are you just ranting based on the speculation of others?
If you want to see where the supposed DC expansion list that you seem to be basing all of your rants off of was, check out this thread:
http://www.hcrealms.com/forum/showthread.php?s=&threadid=27658
phicks made it up right in there.
On a side note, the 'You decide the contents of ...' thread put Kyle in the expansion. WizKids has already 'heard' from the fans on what they want.
They also likely wouldn't bother with reading this post as it's in the DC section rather than the Dear WizKids section ... but whatever floats your boat, right?
I can't believe everyone's talking about Kyle not being on the fake list, when the real "cosmic" INjustice is that G'nort was left off. Can you believe that? Semi-intelligent dogs w/power rings get no respect I tell ya, no respect!
And speaking of Semi-Intelligent dogs ... WHERE'S KRYPTO?
I mean, it's just not a real set unless it's got a Superman's best friend in it.

Personally, I'd prefer G'nort to Kyle. But that's just me. And Krypto's one of the figs I want the most right now....

Actually, it's probably too late now.
Remember that in order to produce the figures they need to:
1) Decide on a list.
2) Create original sculpts.
3) Have sculpts approved by DC.
4) Create molds.
5) Produce figures.
6) Paint figures.
7) Package figures.
8) Ship figures.
And I'd bet WK is at *least* on step fourright now.
In order to include Kyle Rayner, they'd need to cut a figure who they've already paid to have sculpted and maybe have a mold made. That costs money, and even though the game's doing well they still can't just blow expenses like that.
And -- to be totally mercenary about it -- if there are really that many people crying out for Kyle and he *isn't* in Cosmic Justice, then they know that they have a big hit they can put into the third expansion.
Be patient. As long as we're here supporting the game, they'll eventually get to all the big guns.
