Question: Can you make up for the awful Fred figure by releasing a Fred that actually looks like Fred?

Please ask DCD if they would re-visit Firestorm on a smaller scale or current Hal Jordan on a larger scale.
Firestorm is way too tall and while the Green Lantern fits with the GL wave I'd love to have one a little bigger to fit with my JLA figures.

I hope it's not too late for this! I have two questions:

Company: DC Direct
Toy Line: 1/4 Scale Figures
Question: I saw the 1/4 Superman and it looks good from what I've seen so far. What is the cost of these (guessing a nice Sideshow-like $250, minimum)? If this is a new line; is a Batman on the way? And how soon, so I can start saving for it :P

EDIT: The cost is $295 :(

Company: Mezco
Toy Line: Vinyl Public Enemy Chuck D. & Flavor Flav
Question: Yeeeeaaaaah Boy! When are these slated for release? Cost? And anymore classic Hip Hop in the Pipeline? Any chance for Realistic versions?

I would LOVE to see both of these get good pictorials and info behind them. Thanks, AFI!

I know this has probably been brought up before, but please if there is still time.

Company: Mattel
Toy Line: JLU/DC Superheros
Question: Will they start releasing the main heroes (Superman, Batman, Flash, Martian Manhunter, Green Lantern) with the limited articulation instead of the extra articulation. If so, why keep releasing the extra articulated ones?

I really want JLU figures of the main guys that will fit in with the rest of the JLU guys.

Now I gotta start packing!!!


Julius,

Not a question for a company but a small request from you, when you start taking photos of DCD, could you please take some updated photos of ID Crisis waves 1 & 2, would like to see if any changes were made, thanks :D

DC DIRECT

1: What's the deal with Alex Ross Justice Series 3 Plastic Man? Are there two seperately packed versions or is it one torso/head with two sets of arms and a set of legs/coil? Are the "stretched" arms bendy?

2: Are the Elseworlds Kingdom Come Jade and Spectre in the same scale as the Kingdsom Come line or the Justice line? I had heard they were in the Justice scale.

3: Also, why doesn't DCD just pick a scale and stick with it? It would be one thing if some of the figures were G.I.Joe sized and some were He-Man sized, but they're just barely out of scale with each other and almost every line - not to mention some figures even within a line - is like that. It just doesn't make sense. I mean, I would own so many more DCD figures if they were in scale with the ones I already bought.

PALISADES OR LMTD OR WHATEVER IT IS NOW

1: Is the Sesame Street line happening or not?

Thanks.

For DST:

Are series 12/13 of the Marvel minimates 2-packs still being produced, or have they been replaced by the "comic cover" 4-packs?

Will we there be any more TRU sets?

Are the X3 minimates a separate line, or a continuation of the Marvel line?

When will they officially announce line-ups and release dates?

For Toy Biz:

How do I get a complete Giant Man again?

Where is Quicksilver? Is there any chance he will be released this year?

Are they still planning on releasing an improved Scarlet Witch? If so, how and when?

Are the products on display here Toy Biz's last Marvel offerings, or do they have other product still in development that's simply not ready to be announced. Not that I'm complaining, but they're doing such phenomenal work now, it'd be incredible if even more of the rumored stuff came to pass. (Hercules, Iron Spider, etc.)

Thanks, Julius!

[b]Company: Mattel

Toy Line: DCSH

Question: Julius, now that I have seen the images, it seems to show that Darkseid is inscale but Doomsday is not, could someone or yourself clarify and what about the mentioned chase figures, how will they be available to the public or could it be easier to buy a full case and hope you will get the chase figures within that full case, I'm asking because the Mattel Cassandra Cain Batgirl, one of my all time bat favorites is 40 times better than the DCD version and I would love to have a few for my Batcollections, thanks, :D :D :D

Is there any chance we might see the "goon" pack-ins from the villians wave at a later date? I'm dying for generic AIM and Hydra soldiers. Thanks Julius. Have a safe and enjoyable trip.


Still a possibility. They would still like to do them some way, just nothing locked down yet.

Ok folks. The show is official over, I have a few more meetings to follow up on today, but I finally have some free time so let's knock out some of the answers that I know....

13" figures
Will we be seeing Wonder Woman?


Yeah. I don't think they have the female body sculpted yet. But this line is exceeding their expectations so I'd think will see her in the next year.

Will we see a JLU Cheetah or Cheetah / WW two pack?


Not in the 06 line, but she is being looked at for 07.

Looks like it. They are what Bandai are calling the NEXT waves to be released.

As I understand it it will be one figure, with separate arm pieces and a different lower torso, much like what they did with Metamorpho.

2: Are the Elseworlds Kingdom Come Jade and Spectre in the same scale as the Kingdsom Come line or the Justice line? I had heard they were in the Justice scale.


They SHOULD be inscale with the KC line (Specter afterall even reuses some KC Flash parts) but you never really know untill you get the final product.

It would be one thing if some of the figures were G.I.Joe sized and some were He-Man sized, but they're just barely out of scale with each other and almost every line - not to mention some figures even within a line - is like that. It just doesn't make sense. I mean, I would own so many more DCD figures if they were in scale with the ones I already bought.


The reasons as I see it have to do with them breaking up waves between sculptors. It just seems like too much to manage when the same person isn't doing the whole wave. Also with DC doing so much artist specific waves now the diferent styles can clash and look out of scale. If one guy is famous for small heads and big arms and someone else does bid heads... ya see.

Not happening, unless someone else comes forward and buys the license, sculpts and tools.

Thank you for getting my hopes up JM!! I really want a 13" Wonder Woman!! I hope to see Cheetah in the JLU line too. I guess I won't keep my hopes up to see her at SDCC. Thanks!
