Mattel Q&A Session: The Answers
Posted by Curto on December 16, 2009 at 09:20 PM CST:

As part of Mattel's bi-weekly Q&A session, Cool Toy Review passed on 3 of your burning questions and now we've got the answers for you.
Cool Toy Review: Are there any plans to re-release older harder to find DCUC figures like Harley Quinn, The Riddler, Black Manta, etc?
Mattel: All great figures, and in time we do plan to re-release these figures.
Cool Toy Review: Originally, there was supposed to be a November release in the The Dark Knight collection, but that appears not to be the case now. Will more figures be released from this line? I think the line would be successful if there were more original characters like Two-Face released rather than Thug/Joker & Batman/Bruce Wayne rehashes.
Mattel: We had to skip the November release due to shipping issues, but the line is now back on track. The remaining 6 figures will be available one per month on MattyCollector.com and later in the spring at Toys R Us.
Cool Toy Review: Do you plan on updating all of the previous DCIH figures with added articulation like the Target Exclusive Public Enemies Batman & Superman? I feel the females desperately need to be updated, and the core characters should all have it. Also any plans on a Jor-El figure in this scale, the Superman Returns one was awesome!
Mattel: Yes, that is the long term plan.
Cool Toy Review: Any plans for more Batman Beyond figures, in any scale?
Mattel: Yes there are.
Cool Toy Review: I know we ask about the Legion of Super-Heroes quite often, but that's because the Legion is cool! Can we look forward to more figures from the 30th century?
Mattel: Absolutely.
