I liked this one.

Q5: Point blank question: Is JLU Dead?

A: Point blank answer…far from it. Look for a major announcement about the future of the JLU line in ToyFare magazine this February.

I cannot wait for the announcement. Good or bad...the thought of waiting 30 more days makes me crazy!

Thanks for reminding me, Ham...that was *another* wasted question. We knew that a few weeks ago.

Peace,

Chip

Ah, but while we did know JLU was alive back then, you had speculated that ToyFare was running an article about what could have been had the line not been cancelled. So, it's not a completely wasted question, since we now know that's not what ToyFare is doing.

Mattel was a little late getting these back to the sites. All of these questions were submitted back on Dec 15th. At that time we had not seen DCUC wave 1 in stores yet, there were no reports about Mr. Miracle or Fire and ice 3-packs and the Toy Fare/JLU announcement had not been made.

Not really "wasted" questions. Just out of date by the time of response.

Ok, is mattel JUST going to release the deadshot, obsidian, and blue devil? because i need them to rerelease EVERYTHING that came out last year except for the joker 3 pack. I know im not the only one who needs them to rerelease them!!

Three waves of DCUC by June?

If that pattern holds, sounds like there's probably six waves a year! (Or that the first wave of '09 will ship in late '08, kind of how Wave 1 did.)

Can someone post the HoJ questions? I can't join there to view them (tried it months ago and nothing worked). Anyways, the info sounds good. I'm glad Mattel has considered pack-in figures like Dr. Psycho, Mxy, and Bat-mite.

All of the answers were either 'stay tuned', 'wait for toyfare' or 'not available', so you didn't miss much. :lol:

But you may wanna PM PowerGuy...I'm sure he'd help you with the signup process.

I dunno...I found the answer to question 5 to be interesting, if not particularly revealing.

The 2007 JLU figures have all been remixed into new case packs and should be hitting stores as we speak. This should help collectors fill in the gaps in there collection until the fall when…ooops. Can’t finish that sentence until after you read the announcement in Toy Fare magazine in Feb!
