Mattel does none of that.

They do with DCUC but as far as actually being able to find the toys? Yeah...

HEY LOOK IT'S WAVE 10! ZOMG!!!! I HAD NO IDEA CAPTAIN COLD WAS IN THIS WAVE!

eh...

Will we ever see a Wonder Twins 3 pack in DCIH?
Two twins plus gleek or supes in black leather jacket (elseworlds or smallville). >.>

Yes it will be a SDCC exclusive & you have to show up to get Gleek.

After the poor dcuc fans that had that happen to them... Somehow I think you're right lol.

Feel free to post your questions for the next round.

Super_Megatron · 11-26-2009, 07:30 PM

Last days for taking questions are here.

GearsFreak86 · 11-26-2009, 08:20 PM

1-Will Elasti-Girl and Mento be release in the DC Universe Classics? We have Robotman and Beast Boy now and Negative Man next year and it would be great to finish up the original team.

2-WHERE IS MARTIAN MANHUNTER? Please tell us he'll be out in 2010.

3-Will we ever see a Manhunter robot from the Green Lantern comics in DCUC form?

Evantainment · 11-26-2009, 09:49 PM

Mattel has announced MOTUC Battle Cat and Ghostbusters Walter Peck with containment unit through Mattycollector.com. Can we expect more vehicles/playsets in the future?

Super_Megatron · 12-18-2009, 09:33 AM

Our last "Ask Matty" for the year was Dec 15th, we will pick up again on Jan 15th with questions due Jan 2nd so start posting them now.

Super_Megatron · 01-01-2010, 08:18 PM

Last call.

Shin Densetsu · 01-01-2010, 08:52 PM

1-Being that DC Direct already made a Jean Paul Valley armored Batman years back, are the 4H free to sculpt a DCUC version of that unique version of Batman?

2-DCUC wave 5, the 1st Walmart exclusive wave, was notoriously difficult to find at retail. Will the entire wave be rereleased in the future, possibly as a bonus all star wave?

3-Years back when DCSH hit retail, the 4H had said that Bane was retooled with full articulation before going to the factory, yet the Bane that was released was just a repaint. Being that fans want a fully articulated Bane, is the retooled prototype still available for use for final production?

Super_Megatron · 01-02-2010, 08:36 AM

Last day for the next round.

Pistols4Pandas · 01-02-2010, 09:03 PM

Will you ever re-release DCUC figures like Nightwing, Deathstroke, Sinestro, Harley Quinn, or a New version of The Riddler?

Will Mattycollector.com offer future waves of DCUC on the website? And will they be able to be bought as single figures?

Whatever happened to the Gentleman Ghost wave? Any chance that those figures will be available again to complete Giganta?

misterder · 01-03-2010, 09:57 AM

As there are no promises of a future for JLU past the first half of 2010, will you please consider a Ted Kord Blue Beetle before the line concludes? He defines "fan favorite", being picked for DCU and Infinite Heroes, despite being a b-level hero. Word is he'll even be a mini Action League fig. Make a stand; make a statement! Thanks!

Super_Megatron · 01-15-2010, 07:08 PM

Not many questions.

OttoDestruct · 01-15-2010, 09:46 PM

Here is a question they dont like..
Is the recent DCUC price increase really due to increased cost in materials? especially seeing how the whole line seems to be constantly plauged with QC issues , or is the increase to offset other Mattel lines selling very poorly (Avatar). when the line premiered 2 years ago in 2008 the cost was 9.99 to 10.00 a figure and now they are running 14.97 at walmarts across the country, how can mattel justify this when other companies like hasbro are reducing the cost of their products (Gi Joe) because of poor sales, Im not sure what its like where you live but its a nightmare trying to find DCUC figures in my area.

Echo7Solo · 01-17-2010, 05:24 PM

I see there are plans on rereading all of the "big guns" in the all stars line ups but why no villains? Something like Harley Quinn, Sinestro, Joker or how about a new Lex in business suit.

Echo7Solo · 01-17-2010, 05:26 PM

while we are at it why no Kyle or Guy?

Ummm Hasbro did not reduce their cost of G.I. Joe. The reduced prices were to entice people for Xmas. I heard some Targets/Walmarts are hiking the prices back up to $7+.

In the last Q&A they said Joker was returning.

DCUC right?

Here is one for DCIH...
When will the female characters get better sculpts & articulation?

Evantainment · 01-17-2010, 08:10 PM

Will there be new toylines added to Mattycollector's store over the course of 2010 or just new figures for the established lines?

Greylight · 01-17-2010, 11:54 PM

Considering Mattel's relationship with Warner Brothers for the DC Comics license, might it be possible for Mattel to acquire toy licenses of other popular properties now owned by Warner Brothers, such as Thundercats and Silverhawks?

These brands are long overdue for new toylines, and would be excellent candidates for the "Classics" treatment. I imagine they would be greatly welcomed by the fans, especially as online exclusives.

GearsFreak86 · 01-18-2010, 02:34 AM

I stopped posting questions. None of mine are ever answered.

jimster2010 · 01-18-2010, 08:09 AM

Since DCUC is sort of carrying the torch from the old Super Powers Collection will we see updated versions of vehicles and playsets from that line such as the Batmobile and the Hall of Justice?

jimster2010 · 01-18-2010, 08:11 AM

Will there be Movie Masters figurres based off of the Tim Burton Batman movies series?

jimster2010 · 01-18-2010, 08:15 AM

Will there be more figures of supporting characters from Batman Brave and the Bold?
