Anyway, these figures are really growing on me. I bet Mattel has plans to do the new 52. Perhaps we will find out at Toyfair.

I dunno. If mattel's gonna do the whole line up, then it's gonna be tight. DCD is planning on pretty much doing the entire league in one go. But Mattel, while typically slow (Raven was announced what, over a year before she was released? I recall her announcement coming around the same time Beast Boy hit the shelves), they *can* put stuff out with surprising speed when they want to.

Mattel's typical slowness is a bit off putting given 50-90% of any given figure is just repainting reusable parts.

Batman would be the big mystery, cause that can go either way. With Batman Legacy, Batman Beyond shoing up in DC Allstars, all the Arkham City Batmen coming out, and DKR on the horizon, the market will be flooded with Batman variants for some time to come. That is either gonna help New 52 Batman, or it's gonna kill his chances. It's really hard to figure which.
