These have been spotted! The lineup includes Mongul, black outfit Supergirl, black outfit Superman, Kal-El Superman(he has the tight hood and a metallic blue costume), Bizarro(repaint in more comic-accurate colors, with the "Bizarro #1" chain), and supposedly, a Cyborg Supoerman. I've seen the first five on Ebay auctions, but not the Cyborg Superman, so take that one with a grain of salt. I hope it's true, though. Cyborg Superman is one of the top few figures I've been wanting from this line.

Would that be part of Wave 5 or Wave 6?

I'm counting it as Wave 6. It has a different backdrop for all the figures, and the cardback has a new set of figures listed.
I just saw 5 of the figures from this wave, and picked up Mongul. I wanted the black costume Superman, but he wasn't there. On the cardback, he is a bit different than I had imagined. The costume is black, obviously, the S-Shield is silver with black background, and the cape and boots are silver.
But get this: I get home and open Mongul, and on the side of the bubble where the villains are listed Cyborg Superman is pictured! So Henshaw is indeed part of the wave!

I know, I'm pretty irritated that we've now had 3 Superman waves in a row. As far as I know, there weren't even any new DCSH figures shown at Toyfair, just the JLU and preschool stuff. I want my Two-Face, dammit!

You and me both! I was so hoping for a Batman wave to be next. Having Superman wave after wave will no doubt kill this line. Look at how much Superman Returns stuff is still in stores and now three waves of Superman figures to add to it.
I?m sure the major retail store buyers have had enough of this by now and unless Mattel changes, the rest of this line is surely headed overseas, assuming it gets released at all.

There is still superman Returns on the shelf, then the new Man Of Steel figures which are the same thing, no two waves of DCSH with Superman... Yea, this should have happened last summer, not now.

Yeah, it's been Superman overkill. Honestly, Mattel would have been better off releasing these few waves during the summer and just labeling it as the Superman Returns line. Sure, some of the characters weren't in the movie, but I think everybody would have been much happier. At least this line is still selling very well, even with Superman overkill. The only peg hangers I see are Supergirl, which isn't surprising seeing as how she's been reissued with every single wave. (I mean the white shirt Supergirl, not the mostly-new sculpt blue version. I've only seen one of those, and it's the one I have.) I think this wave's Kal-El will be a peg warmer, too. 2 Wal-MArts here have gotten this wave, and I've already seen 3 of these guys. Even the Bizarro and Darkseid reissues are sold, but Kal-El and Supergirl remain.
I don't think Cyborg Superman and Black suit Superman are out yet, despite being featured on the package. Nobody has seen them, and they haven't even turned up on ebay. I guess it's like the Mekaneck situation a few years back, where a figure was supposed to be part of a wave, but held back a couple of months before people actually started finding it in stores.
Mongul is awesome, though. The sculpt is great, and the paint is above average, even for this line, which is usually good about that. His skin, in particular, looks tough and leathery, almost realistic. He looks even better next to the recent DC Direct Mongul. I have him on the shelf, but I keep taking him down and reposing him and stuff. I think he's one of my favorites from this line so far.
