I know he's an "off the wall" choice but I have some ideas I'm hoping we can work with. He's definitely not the offensive powerhouse of some of the other C3G choices so I think it would be nice to have a Spidey-level type hero.

If everyone is disappointed, I can throw choice number 1A out there or just have the group vote and assign me one. That would be kind of cool to try.

He's your choice MH. He should be fun to do and different from the rest of what's out there so far.

[IAmBatman]

Agreed - I really look forward to seeing what you come up with. Plastic Man might not be #1 on my JLA list, but he's no further down than #20 (and my lists can get pretty long).

Since the playtesting for X-Men seems to be completed, do the rest of us now wait until someone posts something substantial (like a card) for an ala carte figure or . . . . ?

[IAmBatman]

Uh yeah ... the actual next order of business will be doing proofreading (and then voting by the heroes to release) on the cards once GreyOwl and A3n finish putting them together.
Once we open up Ala Carte fully, people should post links to their threads in this thread and Griff or I will put the link on the first page. Then we'll be in the design process until we vote to move each thread (on an individual basis) to playtesting. This will give you and others plenty of a chance to see how design goes from the bottom up and offer your own input and ideas and critiques. Once a unit is moved to playtesting we, of course, hope to get plenty of participation from all over. I know I'm eager to play with something besides the X-Men at this point (though I have been sneaking in some preliminary games with my Hal write up ...).

Just let us know who everyone picked, so we can get those figures before the increased demand dries up the supply.

I just wanted to clarify since there's been 10 pages here in the last 3 days that I can't really add much too, but not nearly that kind of activity in finishing up the X-Men set. Sorry, I'm just one of those "finish what you start" kind of guys.

[IAmBatman]

The actual figure selections should be made in each of the threads which, once they're up, will all be linked this thread.
Once they're "released" the links will be converted to "Books of" and moved over to the Books of C3G Index.

Oh, I completely understand - which is why I haven't opened the floodgates completely to Ala Carte yet (though I've been tempted!). But, really, right now, most of the work is going on behind the scenes between GreyOwl and A3n and there's not too much any of us can do at the moment outside of snapping some figure pictures.

OK, no problem. I just got in at the tail end of World's Finest and most of this one was already done as well, and I just am not one who likes to sit on my thumbs.

[IAmBatman]

I hear ya ... if you wanna do some preliminary playtesting on what I've got written up for Hal Jordan, feel free to send me a pm. I think he's going to be a tough one to cost (he could end up changing a lot once the thread gets started, though).

Edit: Or maybe we should consider opening up Ala Carte early? I hate to leave GreyOwl and A3n behind ... but I also hate to have us eager to work on things with nothing to work on. Let me know what you think, guys!

Just please don't give him a D20 based defense power...
