Well folks it looks like an image of Metron leaked online. Too bad we won't be getting him.

That image was posted by the Four Horsemen on their site on 7/24 in a post titled "FOUR HORSEMEN DCUC COMIC CON REVEALS!!" They pulled that one down pretty quick and posted this message where it was:

Apparently Metron was not officially revealed at Comic Con as we had anticipated, so we've removed the image.

This thread's existence mocks me if/when the sub fails. Metron with chair by the 4H has been on my short list since this line started. So close to it, votes willing, yet so far.

I saw it. It was a lot of paint work and little sculpting.

I really think that Mattel should officially release this image. I can only seeing this help the cause of the subscription. Isn't that what they want?

Metron himself isn't going to have/need a lot of new parts--it's the chair where the new tooling cost comes in.

Yea I know. It looked good but the chair is what will sell the figure.

Would it be too much of a pipe dream if I say I'm hoping there's light-up features on the chair?

Yes. Pipe dream.

But the image suggests the poll was fixed to begin with with the winner already determined, and voting was pointless. But whatever... we all knew Metron was going to win anyway.
