Right they can do whatever they want with the license before but I can't imagine they'd have that same luxury to let them do what they want when there is an impending sale of their IPs, which has been going on for quite a while it seems.

I don't think their 7 inch DC figures were ever supposed to be an ongoing annual thing either. I don't remember them stating so anyway, I always got the impression that they were able to maneuver through some loopholes for that year but it might not happen again. The Ali/Superman 2 pack was shown at a Toyfair like the those DC/Predator figures were and there didn't seem to be any issues or delays getting that one out.
