There's also a big difference between a perceived stagnation in quality and a complete failure as you put it. The line's been going in some form or another for over 10 years. It's produced hundreds of figures. It's still got a retail presence. That's a lot more than most lines can say. Marvel Legends being successful and of better quality doesn't make DCUC a failure when it's still producing product and still has a presence. A complete failure would be GI Joe, a strong brand with pervasive recognition that has, in fact, failed to establish a foothold at retail despite the efforts of two motion pictures and a season of cartoon, and that no retailers outside of Toys R Us are willing to carry.
