Has Mattel given any thought to advertising the 2013 CIE subscription in DC comics for a couple of months before it goes on sale? It seems like an ideal way to reach fans/collectors/potential collectors who might miss the Comic Con news and also may not like Mattycollector on facebook, follow it on twitter, or even know about the site at all.

What happened to the YJ lineup.

1. What is the holdout on the release of the Stealth figures and images showing up but no release dates of the other figures.

2. At SDCC are you going to offer any exclusive YJ.

Any more questions for this next round of Ask Matty?

Are we going to have to wait until SDCC for new Young Justice reveals?

When can we expect reveals of your SDCC 2012 exclusives?

We now know that the initial waves of the DC All-Stars (retail line) have been pulled and repackaged into new case assortments.

Can we get an "official" word on what the new wave structure will be (for waves 1 and 2 at least) and when we can start to expect these to be hitting the pegs?

Also, when can we expect to see the packaging for this new line?

Once again, thanks for keeping the JLU alive! I'm very excited for all the new 3 packs and can't wait to get them. I also understand the price point and was curious if for added value you could add some accessories? I, like a lot of people, missed the single carded Booster at retail and would love to get a show accurate "Skeets" with him. Thanks again!

DCUC. With the news that DCUC as we know it will be going away in 2012 but that a relaunched/continuation line will be coming out in 2013, can we get a bit of clarification on what to expect?
1. Will the new line be similar to the DCSH concept of Batman and Superman family characters that are known to the casual buyer at retail and Moms and Kids?
2. Will the sub be the place to get classic versions of characters and to fill out existing teams and fan requests?

DCUC. In the sub, can we expect to see some re-dos of certain characters that were less than accurate the first time round?
Similar to how you corrected Sinestro, could we see such amendments to characters such as Robin (the one year later version should've been on the older teen buck, the 2pk repaint of his first costume should have had newly sculpted parts to be on model, and an original Dick Grayson Robin could be done on the smaller male teen buck to go with the Golden Age Batman). Or would these sort of re-workings of a character like Robin fit in better with the relaunched retail line next year?

I hope this doesn't happen.

Well I hope it does, maybe not in the sub, but if the line does go back to retail only offering the big guns and we end up with multiple versions of Bat characters, then I hope they invest in them to offer us something new enough to warrant buying another version of a character we already have.

I just meant in the sub. I think if Mattel has any chance of it being a success, then they must offer new characters only. I'm all for fixing old wrongs at retail.

Cool, I think retail is the best place for them too, but you never know where such things will end with Mattel so I just wanted to check.
