Collector note: This wave brings with it new packaging which, to me, isn't as good as the last. It does not state which collect-and-connect piece comes with each figure. I guess there are now, at least, 'collector buttons'.

BIOGRAPHY:

Sister of Billy Batson, Mary was raised by a wealthy family in Fawcett City, reuniting with Billy years later when her adoptive parents were kidnapped by the villain Ibac. To save them, Mary (like her brother) was granted miraculous powers by the wizard "Shazam!", thus transforming her into a slightly older, super powered version of herself with the same abilities as Billy. Following the rescue, Mary continued to use her powers alongside "Shazam!" as defenders of Fawcett City.
