So today I'm sooo hoping that we see Alter Ego's in this line-up! Hopefully Bruce Wayne and Dick Grayson will get the AE treatment by Mattel in the not too distant future! I am so into Green Arrow these days that I also hope he get considered one day! So what do you think about a new group of Alter Ego figures? Who do you want to see in casual duds?

We couldn't get the four originals, sadly, because Hasbro would turn three consecutive shades of purple (and so would their lawyers), but I'd love to see a special wave or four pack with Clark, Bruce, Dick and substitute Hal Jordan for Peter Parker. Hal makes the best addition because he has a movie coming out and the bomber jacket/pilot look is distinct and would differentiate him nicely from the others.

Would not mind having a Retro Bruce Wayne,if he came with a better suit than the old Mego one.

I like the idea of Hal too...I thought they might hold off on that until they have the big movie toy rush! The Retro heroes definitely need less Retro style in their alter ego casual wear!

Wave 1

Clark Kent
Bruce Wayne
Dick Grayson
Diana Prince

2

Billy Batson
Barry Allen
Hal Jordan
Barbara Gordan

I don't see these selling at retail unless they spiff them up a bit.

Here's an idea - package them with a copy of the old Mego transporter from the Original Star Trek playset, you know the one that spun around and had the red and green buttons on it. You could make it look like a phone booth and have the Secret Identity on one side and a Cardboard cutout of their alter Ego Hero on the other, which you could swap out with the Hero (sold seperately).

I'd like to see a Bruce Wayne, Dick Grayson, Clark Kent, Diana Prince, and a Hal Jordan.

Hopefully they would get to the rest of your list here of a Billy Batson, Barbra Gordon, and Barry Allen.

Even if they just did something like that with the packaging, it's a great idea.

Good idea for exclusives though,I'd bite.

Retro Action secret identities figures would be cool.

So what about a Hal Jordan Green Lantern movie secret identity? Especially after you fix the body flop!!!!!

These would be great Matty Collector or online retailer exclusives.

This is a rough call, but I think it would be cool.

Thinkin' at least Clark Kent, Bruce Wayne and Dick Grayson...maybe Hal too (you could try to cross-market him as "a test pilot", maybe make these two-packs, with villains and/or inspirations...like Hal Jordan/pilot with Abin Sur/GL or Clark Kent with Brainiac; Bruce Wayne with Riddler; Dick Grayson with Joker).

I would be totally down for a Clark Kent, Bruce Wayne & Dick Grayson, I'd even go for a Diana Prince !
