DC Universe is going away after 2012 and there'll be one more wave of 4. In 2013, we'll be relaunching our 6" with complimentary offerings on Matty and at Mass. You guys will be able to complete your collection and I hope you'll like what we are doing. We've taken lessons from DC Universe and Legacy. Overall, we need to adjust to retailers, consumers and what's selling in volumes that can be supported.

As far as the character that we showed but haven't released, most of them have been tooled so we'll be looking for a way to release them in one form or another. However, I can't 100% guarantee that.

Well, that's one less thing to look for at retail.

I'm going to become a toy-hermit at this rate.

Although i'm sad and really dissapointed to see it all coming to an end, i'm actually welcoming a chance to catch my breath. Every time i have some dough saved up to possibly grab a couple of the variants from past waves, theres a whole new wave i need to get. Theres still a few figures i need to complete my collection. Being a completist i need every single one.

My one worry now is, will whatever new line Matty comes up with in the future be in the DCUC style?

The 4H have said on Twitter that it should be and the Mattel folks keep stressing compatible, so I think we'll be good.


And yeah, I don't mind the break! I need to catch up on other reviews!

Oh thank goodness! Yeah I need to catch up on collecting DCUC =)

Red Azbats showed up on a chinese ebay auction:

I'm tempted.

The Knightfall, and War of the Lanterns two-packs have arrived in Canada! Hopefully we see them here soon.

[nanite]

My Canadian source was mistaken.

Apparently Matty doesn't even know where the Knightfall and War of the Lanterns sets ended up.

So! DC Universe All Stars! Anyone seeing these at retail?

EE and BBTS have them in stock.

I may or may not have chinese-ebayed the Kyle...
