Ask Matty – March 1st Edition<\/strong><\/p>\n

DCClassics.Com Asks:<\/strong><\/span> At NYTF, nearly everything for the DCIE subscription looked fantastic. The character choices were great and the figures looked sharp on display. That said, we’re somewhat puzzled by Rocket Red. Since Mattel opted to use the short-lived Geoff John\/Ivan Reis version of Rocket Red, he should’ve received a standard size figure. Instead he’s been given an incorrect 8″ oversized slot. Is this an oversight that subscribers are just going to have to live with? <\/p>\n

He is the correct scale as advised by our licensor partners.<\/strong><\/p>\n

DCClassics.Com Asks:<\/strong><\/span> For Waves 17-20, 26 of the 40 figures were based on Geoff Johns work, as are the first handful of subscription figures, and four of the first six 2012 DC All-Stars. Is this an intentional focus on Geoff Johns work?<\/p>\n

No, this is just a coincidence and likely due to Geoff’s heavy involvement as a writer. It is not intentional that we said “lets focus on Geoff characters” or anything like that.<\/strong><\/p>\n

ItsAllTrue.Net:<\/strong><\/span> What articulation will be featured on the Dana as Zuul figure? <\/p>\n

She will have a swivel waist. <\/strong><\/p>\n

MOTUClassics.Com Asks:<\/strong><\/span> In the last Q&A, the reason for Fisto not having interchangeability was given as “the 4H didn’t design him that way”. Mattel representativess have made comments in the past that the Four Horsemen aren’t responsible for engineering the figures, so is interchangeability considered a design aesthetic? Should we be lobbying the 4H for future interchangeability or should we continue to lobby Mattel so we can get that feedback to Terry Higuchi and the rest of the MOTU team?<\/p>\n

It is always a good idea to post your ideas on the Four Horsemen’s site<\/A> as they often make these choices when designing the figure. <\/strong><\/p>\n

We need your questions for the next round!Submit your suggestions on the ItsAllTrue.net Forums…<\/a><\/p>\n
