The first wave of Heroes figures from Mezco Toyz is in stores now, and focuses on Season 1 with Peter, Hiro, Sylar, Claire and Mohinder. Ditto September's Wave 2, with Nikki/Jessica, Claude, Matt Parkman, Noah Bennett and Mr. Linderman. But Wave 3... that's where Season 2 (and my misleading title) comes into play. Along with a few remaining Season 1 starrers (Nathan and the Haitian), Wave 3 gives us second-season costumes for Peter and Hiro and the line's first Season 2 character, Elle -- played by Veronica herself, Kristen Bell!

Now, while it will likely say "Elle" on the package, there's no law that says you have to keep her in there -- although some die-hards would argue otherwise. I say take her out, put her on your bedside table and call her whatever name you like, whether that's Veronica, Sarah Marshall or Princess Leia -- oh, if only the clothes on this 7-inch figure were interchangeable with a gold bikini.
