That's just it... they AREN'T making characters people want. Who HONESTLY jumped up and down and giggled when Photog was announced for MOTUC? No one. How many times has there been a demand for Mme Razz? MAAAAYBE once? I've seen TONS of comments about fans wanting a movie He-Man and Skeletor... but they threaten to withhold Gwildor. REEEAAALLY????

As a Transformer collector, primarily, I totally understand the idea of using a mold a billion times to get the most $ for the buck (pun intended), and with MOTUC, there is really VERY few different parts, so I don't see what's Mattel's problem, since 90% of the characters are already made, just need a different head sculpt. Mattel is HUGE, and brings in millions, and can afford to make Ghostbusters toys but says DC and MOTUC are too expensive? I'm pretty sure there are more DC fans than Ghostbuster fans (sorry Bill Murray). This whole thing stinks of begging. Every year, more begging. Sorry Mattel, but I don't give to beggars.
