Lady Blackhawk, most recently revived by the awesome Gail Simone in her run of Birds of Prey:


Power Girl, from the JLI/JLE years of the 90s:

Zauriel, from Grant Morrison's run on JLA:


Prometheus, also from Grant Morrison's JLA run:


Connor Hawke as Green Arrow, who had the simple misfortune of writers not knowing what to do with him:

Black Lighting, of the woefully short run of the 90s:

And Aztek, an excellent character with a very cool design:

PS - All your sculpts, especially the female characters, are too damn leggy. See All-Star Super-Lois. Good grief.
Dear DC Comics:
George Perez, Jim Aparo, Jim Lee, John Byrne, and Ed Benes are shitty, shitty, shitty costume designers. It wouldn't kill you to give Black Canary her Gary Frank/Greg Land costume design back, nor Huntress her circa-No Man's Land costume back, either. There's a reason besides rarity that the Birds of Prey toy set is selling for $300+ on eBay. And please put the green back in Robin's costume. It just looks dull, flat, and dead.

seeing Zauriel, Aztek, and Prometheus makes me want to dig out my Morisson JLAs ...
Wow, that's a really good Power Girl costume. The Roy Thomas fetishists will never let anything but the current design exist in any form whatsoever, but I like it nonetheless.
And Zauriel needs a JLU-style figure, too. I know he never appeared on the show, but neither did Plastic Man, and they did him anyway.
What's been done to Connor Hawke is just a damn shame.
Not to mention the 3 main costumes of the Elongated Man.
