There was the 2003 Batman line and Batman Legacy. Is anyone going to tell me that WB/DC isn't demanding more Harley figures? They market the hell out of Harley Quinn in every other sector of merchandising and media, they seriously aren't asking Todd and his company to make 50 billion Harley figures. Just 50 billion Batman figs I guess.

To which I will imply it again, Batman is DC's cash cow and they will milk it for what it's worth, other characters be damned. I would call Todd sexist if he absolutely refuses to release any female DC character like Wonder Woman but he would lose money in the process and earn the ire of DC if that happened.

And we can always ignore a toy company if they don't give us the figures that we like in the first place. Or you can just write to the company itself. Better than me ranting all day about toys that should bring us joy in the first place.
