It is pretty interesting that we will see three full waves of DCUC.  I've not heard one word of rumors/gossip on wave 12. 

Yeah, that's probably the most exciting thing I've seen in the Q&As today. Something outside what's already been churned up by the rumour mill!

As far as I'm concerned it's all a rumor except Powergirl, Man-Bat, Joker and the Question.

Maybe.  But how obscure is any Superman villian that's appeared in a bunch of cartoons? 

Thing is, I can't think of any other skull faced characters in the DCU except Mr. Bones and Dr. Phosphorus.

Mr. Bones would be the shiznit.  Grin

DCUC: Gentleman Ghost really came out well beyond expectations. We have another obscure figure in Wave 13 next year that is just amazing. One hint: there will be a skull involved.

ATOMIC SKULL and DR. DESTINY are the first two that popped into my head.  Anybody else?

Oh snap.  Dr. Destiny would be almost as good as Mr. Bones.

We will have three new waves of 6” DCU figures, at least 1 new Ghostbuster figure and at least 6 new MOTUC figures.

Not to parse words too much, but he didn't explicitly say three waves of DCUC.  He said three waves of "6 DCU figures.  Public Enemies maybe?

I've had to wrap a clear rubber band around the handle of Gentleman Ghost's gun to get him to stay holding it.  Same thing with Captain Cold.  Blue Beetle can't hold his "gun" in his right hand.  Fits fine in the left. 

Gentlemen Ghost fell about four inches.  I haven't seen the gun since.

My guess is Dr. Phosphorus.  For two reasons:  The context of the question had to do with "are you surprised you were able to make.."  He compares this figure to Gentleman Ghost, so I'm thinking its a character with a challenging body type (like a radiant skeleton).  The other skull head characters could just use one of the basic bucks with a skull head. Nothing really noteworthy there.
Second reason, is that some of the leaked info I had made this seem like a "Bat-themed" wave that Doc P. would fit into well.

I wonder if we can get a Dr. Phosphorus variant in a suit for us Starman fans.
