Sad to see so many lose their jobs.

I only have a handful of their figures that I put with my NECA collection when they had those couple years of making DC characters in 7".

I can still remember being excited for the Batman animated line, but the first figures that came out were so prone to breakage that I decided to skip the whole thing.

I never followed DC Direct/Collectables news that closely after awhile, but it seemed like stuff was always getting cancelled.

The pandemic has really accelerated the decline of some of these entertainment/media companies. You hate to see people out of work, but when these places seem to care more about agendas and chasing away fans who supported their business and franchises for decades it's hard to find the sympathy sometimes.

I feel like DC Direct/Collectables was capable of so much better, but they didn't always live up to their potential with their figures.
