It’s Halloween! Time for our final EXCLUSIVE FIRST LOOK at each of NECA’s upcoming Mego-style Ben Cooper Costumed Kids DC Comics action figures.
We kicked the series off Sunday with Superman, and followed it up with Batman, Wonder Woman and the Joker. Not just that, we’ve got a deep-dive interview with NECA VP & General Manager of Product Development Randy Falk, who gives you the lowdown on the line so far, and what’s to come. (Click here.)
The DC heroes wave — aka Wave 5 — is expected to be up for pre-order in late November or December for a spring 2025 release. Each figure will list for $19.99.
But wait, there’s more! We’ve got some big news for you: NECA is re-releasing five of its characters from the line’s first two waves as glow-in-the-dark special editions. This will give fans who missed out the first time around a second chance at picking up figures they might have missed. Click here for details.

A few thoughts:
— The bottom line is that these five figures are delightful and I eagerly await each of them. It’s been a lot of fun showing off each one this week and I’m really looking forward to when they come out in the spring.
— This whole line is Randy Falk’s baby, so huge credit to him for not just conceiving it but executing it.
— Right now, the plan is the one DC wave — but who knows what the future could bring? Here are four I’d LOVE to see:

Yeah, for the FLASH, GREEN LANTERN and AQUAMAN I would cave! Should have bought the ‘costume’ only GL one from eBay a few years ago. I still kick myself over that. I am 70 now and TRY not to buy new collectibles now. They are making it tough with these and the Super Powers (Blue Beetle, Metamorpho, JSA…).
I still find it hard to believe they made a DOCTOR SOLAR costume back in the day (and CAPTAIN ACTION). I sure never noticed them in a store…not that I was shopping for a Halloween costume on my own then. All I remember getting was a Fred Flintstone one and then we would mix and match.

There was also a Shazam! costume so they’ve already got a second wave of five actual costumes. Pretty sure that there were at least four for Batman: The Animated Series: Batman, Robin, Catwoman and Joker.
