Ask Mattel Answers for October 15
1.) Bambam asks: In DCUC wave 9, the blue Wildcat version was suppose to be the chase variant. Is this still true, or is the Wildcat ratio now 50/50? Are the Mantis figures 50/50, too? Blue Wildcat is the chase figure. He is not 50/50. 2.) Baena asks: Is there any interest at Mattel or [...]

It wasn’t clear how much the line would be compatible with DC Universe Classics, although it looked as though the [...]

Poe’s Point > My Five Most-Wanted Obscure He-Man Characters

Today’s post is about the five fairly-to-utterly obscure characters I wouldn’t mind getting a figure of. What are the chances we’ll actually see any of these in figure [...]
