The only thing I can think of is they wanted a “Big Gun” for Wave 4 (having already produced Black Lantern Superman and Batman figures). But I would have much rather seen a Star Sapphire Wonder Woman figure (see below) than this design. Especially when you consider Wonder Woman mighty actually be a Star Sapphire for multiple issues as opposed to her brief stint as a Black Lantern. Regardless, I do have to commend DC Direct for keeping this figure under wraps until the release of Blackest Night #6. No one can blame them for spoiling one of the major turning points in DC Comic's Blackest Night mini-series.

The Black Lantern Wonder Woman action figure will be released as a part of Blackest Night Wave 4, which goes on sale April 14, 2010.
