Thanks for the clarification. Given how Masterverse is being treated at Mattel, I still would not be surprised to see McFarlane find some way to keep this license. I am not basing this on any news, I'm not arguing with anyone (like JayC) who is providing news, and I'm not starting a rumor. I just have an opinion (and a feeling) McFarlane is going to keep this license after all. I will probably be wrong.

I'm glad they did obscure characters for the first wave or so now. Even the updated WIP shots don't look very good (worse than Playmates really). I hope they can find their footing and get them close to the promo pictures.

Still waiting to hear back from this months winner. I will give them until the end of today and if I dont hear from them will draw another name. Check your PM inboxes if you haven't already.

To give you some comparison with Mattel's other action figure line WWE. From what I have seen and been told, in 2026 for DC we will be getting the equivalent to the The WWE Main Event Series Basic Figures. These have less articulation, detail, accessories and a lower price point geared more for kids and parents. Then in 2027 for DC we should start seeing from Mattel stuff more comparable to the more adult higher priced figures Mattel does for WWE like Ultimate Edition. Take Gunther here. The Basic figure in the left is priced around $13 while the Ultimate Edition version on the right is priced around $35. They both have similar scale but very different quality figures. Now some adult collectors may choose to collect the more basic and cheaper figures as they do with WWE, but they aren't the primary targeted audience and if you were going to compare and contrast one of these figures with say Marvel Legends or the stuff McFarlane puts out it would be the Ultimate Edition figure and not the basic Main Event Series one.

While we clarified this back in October, once again rumors have started circulating social media causing confusion on when Mattel will start doing collector oriented DC Comic figures, taking over for McFarlane Toys. The most recent confusion comes from "leaked" listings for the first round of Mattel DC based stuff which suggests we will see a new line of 6.5" figures from them called "DC Universe". Based on these "leaked" listings the first wave of figures will start to see release in July 2026 and include the following: DC Universe Wave 1: Batman, Robin, The Joker, and The Flash. A second wave is then expected to be released later in the Fall around September time frame. Now honestly I haven't taken much time to vet this information, but assuming it's completely true, this would be what we commonly refer to as the "Kids Oriented" stuff and NOT the Adult Collector figures like we see from McFarlane Toys. As previously reported, the DC license back in 2020 was split into two parts. The Kids stuff that went to the company known as Spin Master and the Adult Collector stuff that went to McFarlane Toys. As we clarified back in October, Mattel will start producing kids oriented stuff (IE stuff like we have seen from Spin Master) towards the middle of 2026 and McFarlane would continue to do the Adult Collector stuff until the end of 2026. Mattel is then expected to start doing the Adult Collector stuff (IE stuff like we have seen from McFarlane) starting in 2027. So getting back to the recent leaked listings mentioned above. Assuming that information is 100% legit, its pertaining to the kids stuff, NOT the adult collector stuff. If you are someone who has been collecting the stuff from Spin Master then these listings might be relevant to you, but if you are a McFarlane Collector, this info doesn't really pertain to you and hence no need to get upset about it.

I would guess because the first movie made a lot of money. And The Penguin show being a hit also helps too.

That's seems crazy to me that a company would reissue an exclusive.

So continuing my Batman Beyond. Dee Dee are probably my 2 favorite call back characters that I would love to see more of. Was going to make a set of 2 but this was a pain. Hate working with white and this much flesh. I still have an alt head and hat I am going to test out. Was really happy with the boots. They are Longshots boots.

That “Friends” style overhead shot of all the cadets cuddling together kills me a little more every time I see it.

If A24 saw something in this pic, then there should be more in it as a visually compelling flick.

I keep expecting this movie to be cancelled. Why put so much effort into a film universe you plan to fold up (Gunn is going to have his own Batman)?
