so my question with answer was:
Toyark.com: The new three packs with Cyborg, Plastic Man, Captains Boomerang and Cold and Metallo are out but do not seem to be in wide release. Were these produced in lower numbers? They are currently on ebay for $100 or more. Should we expect to go to the secondary market for these or should we soon be seeing an increase of them like with the Super Friends pack? Mattel: Without a doubt. So is with it without a doubt that I must pay ebay? or without a doubt there will be more? with mattel these days it could really be eithier |

Its pathetic when a professional tries to be cute and funny and FAILS epically. I know Pendragons going to continue trying to get answers instead of this petty elementary school dribble.

Considering how Mattel has pissed off so many customers/collectors, I'm surprised they thought that being "cute" with the Magic 8 ball routine was a good idea. It comes off as smugg and jerky, which makes me think that all of their "forgive us for issues/we're working on it" line is really disingenuous.
To be clear--it goes beyond being coy or evasive to build excitement for a product. Like when they answered the second to last question with "Without a Doubt"--it was an "either/or" question about whether we should be looking at ebay or waiting for another release, and no clear answer was made. |

I agree. It's so much better to see things on the shelf before making a final decision, and not being forced into buying because you're afraid they will sell out in ten minutes. Plus, I could buy more if I wasn't spending so much on shipping! Hopefully we'll see them back at retail someday.

Yeah, #4 was annoying, but not totally unexpected. Mattel has such tunnel vision, sometimes. And #5 was a non-answer, if I ever heard one. We asked what you would change/add, not if you would.

The answers from the last round were MUCH better than this round. This round seemed more generic.

Matty Collector is the dodgiest bunch of douchebags in the world. Just saying. #5 is downright retarded.

Whoever fills these out should run for political office. I'm sure they would excel at it. Whoever it is seems to be a master of doublespeak.

AWESOME! Both of my DCUC questions were chosen and answered! (Alright, The "dedicated wave" question was, I freely admit a reworking of another question, and I happily share credit)

Well since Mattel is doing a 3.75 inch Green Lantern line it would be logical that a Batman movie line would also have that scale.
There already was a 1/18th Ghostbusters ambulance. I sure wouldn't mind a 3.75 inch Ghostbuster line! So how can there be fan support if there is no line? |

Much happier with this round. Clear-cut answers or at least "nothing planned" responses.

I guess we'll see how Matty does with the GL line. If it's a hit, maybe then they will seriously consider expanding other lines into the 1:18th scale.

Publicly show there is demand, via polls and/or threads voicing support/demand for such a line.

If the Ghostbusters 3 movie actually happens, due no less to a minor miracle from God him/herself, then maybe a full 3 3/4" line could happen along with it. It seems like that would be one of the only scenarios where Mattel would invest in something like that. Do kids today really even know about Ghostbusters? I'm not talking about the few who have cool parents that raise them on the good stuff. I mean the vast majority of kids.

(Though, younger kids kids may not have seen it due to the potentially scary nature) Now, whether or not theese kids are judgemental against it is a different story. But Hell, I don't know, really. One year for halloween my dad and I dressed as Groucho and Harpo Marx, and I couldn't find a damn person under 30 who knew who we were. |
