There may not be any new product coming out for a while, but Mattel has also said they're looking at next year for that.

Plus, the new GL line may rekindle retailer or collector interest in DCIH. And if the GL line is successful, Mattel can use the funds to further R&D on DCIH. Just look what Hasbro has been able to do since TF07.

I hate to be the bearer of basic facts, but "not saying it's cancelled" and "being viable" are not remotely the same thing. When there is no retail outlet for a product, it is not viable. How can a line be "viable" when no one is able to buy new product, and in fact it's not even being manufactured?
