Has #57, Zatanna, actually appeared in the US yet?

As I said in the Marvel figurine thread, I choose to blame John Byrne for this, even though I'm (allegedly) in charge of my own choices and actions.

From Eaglemoss via the Figurine forum: Just a quick update for the forum - it has been decreed that the Mxy/Bat-Mite figure Does Not Fit With The Collection and has to be removed from the running order. So all of the characters are shuffling one step down the list (Mr. Terrific at 80) and Kyle Rayner brought into the 83 slot. However, the Myxy/Bat-Mite fig will probably be released as a ComiCon special as it is a really sweet little piece. The mods there have an email back to EM asking about how easy it will be to purchase this. "ComiCon" doesn't conjure up a lot of warm and fuzzy feelings for me. To replace the duo, Ravager has been added to the lineup.

Sorry about the oddball formatting on my copy/paste job.

Added Starfire to my collection today thanks to a generous contribution by a forum member named... John Byrne!
Thank you so much, JB! I've got a heckuva great story to tell whenever someone asks about my collection, that's for sure. I'm honestly giddy to the point where I can't stop smiling, and I know even when the feeling passes I'll be able to reclaim it every time I look up on my shelf.
It's so cool!

Re: Ryan's post -
Noooooooooooo!!!!
I was totally looking forward to Mxy and Bat-Mite! Replacing them with Ravager is just a crying shame, too. Not that she's (I'm assuming it'll be Rose Wilson) a bad character per se, it's just... she's not cool and fun like Mxyzptlk and Bat-Mite.
If they had to replace those two, at least they could have gone back into Silver-Agey goodness and done the Composite Superman (you're welcome, Brickley!) or a Nightwing and Flamebird two pack. But Ravager? Come on!

That stinks. I was looking forward to the impish mix. Ravager? Another B lister. I really hate when you have to be at a certain event to purchase something. It's like variant covers, frakken sucks.
Composite Superman would have been a more astute choice for sure!

Well, Ryan, a couple pages back in this very thread (so last week) I mentioned I'd get an Animal Man when he comes out, but then I'd have to track down a Starfire to go with him and Adam Strange. (For those who've not read 52, it's because the trio were lost in space together for a year).
I got a friendly email shortly thereafter from JB offering to send me HIS Starfire because, as he put it, she wasn't as cute as when George Perez drew her! Today when I checked my mail, there was a parcel pick up notice so I went and got her - less than a week after mentioning in passing that I'd be trying to seek one out!
How cool is John Byrne?
