If DCIH (or whatever they plan to rebrand it as) starts getting closer to MU (I look at that 25th Anniversary Robin as a closer step but not quite there yet) I think they might be able to give MU a run for their money. I also think the MU line has shanked the GI Joe line quite a bit as they conpete for the same dollar in many cases as I have seen a lot of talk here, on HISS and other boards where 3 3/4" GI Joe fans have chosen MU figs over their old buy everything GI Joe philosophy (mostly because it is hard to keep up with multiple lines on many folks' wallets).

If DCU 3 3/4" were good in the MU way I think they might be just as popular (which is why Mattel's slowness to get with the program is shocking).

Me I am a diehard MU fan which I never thought I'd be b/c I was/am a GI Joe 3 3/4" guy. I even have been buying up a lot of DCIH figs to customize extra MU figs and extra Joes. The kicker for me for the MU line funny enough wasn't even an MU figure but the Spiderman 3 3 3/4" figure that came out from Hasbro at the con and is on HTS. If all the MUs were built like that figure I would buy even more. that thing is a rock star and Spidey isn't even remotely oone of my fav characters.
