December 5th release? That's less than a month after Batman drops. Way too much product way too quickly...
I think most of us DC fans would disagree. We've only gotten micro-sets since Superman, and it's two months between the latest micro-set and the next release (Batman). I'm thinking it's pretty much perfect. More DC Heroclix, Wizkids!
CarlosMucha: that is like be running in a Olimpic race competition just one step to get the gold and then a Giant children place a mirror in your side and you discover what you are really a hamster over a whell and the gold is just a slice of chess. Avatar Summoning: Original GotG, Melter, Whiplash
That's the heart of it-- plus noting that Objects < Figures in terms of appeal.
Here's me being contrary again:
The Chaos War tank turret goes on almost every team I can squeeze it onto lately. And at 2 points, that's nearly all of them. I went out of my way to make sure I got one.
The Chaos War LE's I couldn't care less about. Didn't get them, don't even want them.
My view is that if the objects are more generic-style special objects that can have a place (thematically) on nearly any team, they'll get a lot more use than any LE figure.
Granted, I'm stubbornly refusing to look at factors like the metagame and market value here. I'm only looking at what I personally would like and will use.

I'm not saying that the worst figure is better than the best object-- I'm sayin gthat in general people, in my experience, don't tend to get too excited about objects as prizes.
Maybe because there are a lot more of each of them out there, maybe because they don't have as much appeal as a character, I don't know. But objects as prizes are definitely viewed as second-rate *generally*.
Another micro set? Seriously? I'm done with these. I want full sets. I hate having to deal with the massive demand and fighting for packs against every other person in the area. Micro sets sell too fast and they never make enough to let you spread out your purchases over time because its either buy it when it comes out or never see It again.
