The IAT Official "Ask Mattel" Submission Thread

[dayraven]

hey gents, had a serious question for the next matty Q&A... why aren't the palace guard and BA he-man chest pieces interchangable? wouldn't it have been more economically sound to re-use those molds, rather than investing in very similar, yet different, tools?

[dayraven]

another serious question for the matty Q&A:

If mattel dropped the CnC pack in pieces, could the retail price of the DCU figures be reduced?

Wondered the exact same thing. I'm assuming BA Skelly will then have a 3rd type of chesticle as well.

probably... some cost-saving thinking ahead, eh?

[dayraven]

can these question be asked this round? please?

The one about the chest plates will go in on the 1st (if it's not answered by any of the 1st Q&As) to get answered by the fifteenth.

The one about the C&C pieces has been answered in a roundabout way already the online retailers are pre-ordering the Batman Legacy figures at a higher price than they are the regular waves.

yeah, that drives me nuts. I'll buy Cat man (and probably have to preorder him) and that's it.They can eat the other repaints if they think I'll pay more than the standard DCUC that also comes with a C&C piece

[dayraven]

how come every time i see questions on the New Gods, I see Highfather and Granny Goodness get name dropped, but nary a Yuga Khan mention? YUGA, YUGA, YUGA!!

[Tekwych]

Now that most of the Legion of Super Heroes figures have been announced would you tell how they will be packaged? Are they individual figures in a case pack of will there be a custom box design offered with the set?

[getman]

Will there be an elseworlds style crossover for DCUC and MOTUC anytime soon?
