1.) Elvis8Batman asks: DCUC. Do you plan on completing both the young sidekick versions of the Teen Titans team and the older Perez era version of the team as at the moment they are half and half?

Ideally, in time, we’ll get to both.

2.) RM asks: As a huge Shawn Michaels fan, and a fan of your fantanstic Elite-style WWE figures, I’ve been very much looking forward to adding a Mattel Shwn Michaels to my collection. One thing however has prevented me from doing so; the complete lack of chest hair on every Shawn Michaels figure to date. Shawn’s chest hair (and stubble) are trademark aspects of his “look”, and his figures just don’t look right without. Is there any chance that future Shawn Michaels figures going forward may have paint applications to correct this, to give fans the accruate figures that they desire?

In recent years Shawn Michaels tended to focus more on the details of his costume than accentuating his chest hair so we chose to have the deco on our figures reflect that. As we develop figures of Shawn from earlier in his career when his chest hair was more prominent we will be much more likely to include it on the figure.

3.) kitchen-viper asks: The newest wave of wrestling classics was amazing! My question is, what happened to the bases and name cards?

Unfortunately, due to rising costs we are no longer able to include figure stands with our non-Defining Moments assortments. Given the choice, we opted to eliminate the stands rather then lower the quality of our figures. However we are looking into making the stands available on MattyCollector.com as they are for other Mattel brands.

4.) Mysterious Stranger asks: While the implementation of CAPTCHA on the Mattycollector web store seems to have helped with some of the problems on sale day there are still reports of issues with pages like the payment screen automatically refreshing before the CVV code can be entered (I had this happen twice in January). The CAPTCHA process is a nice step towards a “perfect” sale day experience however there is still some work to be done. Will these auto refresh issues be addressed any time soon?

Yes, we are CONSTANTLY working to improve the process. The CAPTCHA was just one step towards this with more on the way.

5.) Both Mattel and DC Direct will be putting out action figures based on Arkham City in 2011. This is happening at the same time as Mattel is putting out Blackest Night/Brightest Day figures, even as DCD continues to produce toys based on those lines. Why is there so much overlap occurring between Mattel and DCUC, considering that both lines are targeted toward collectors?

Nothing too complicated about this. Both Arkham City and Blackest Night are very popular stories/games and both companies are interested in tackling them.
