Not sure Mattel will answer Fisher Price questions, but... 1. The SDCC 2011 Mattel/DC panel showed a pic of a Hawkman for the Fisher Price Hero World line. When will this be released, or are there no plans to release it?  2. Anything new you can share for the three Fisher Price lines? A. Little People  B. Imaginext  C. Hero World  3. The glaring omission for both Imaginext and Hero World: Wonder Woman (and Batgirl and Supergirl). You should do those three in every line. Girls need superheroes too, and Wonder Woman is a princess warrior. 4. Next biggest omissions: all DC lines like these should at least have Batman, Superman, Green Lantern, Flash, Aquaman, and Wonder Woman. You could pair Aquaman up with water related things you've already made.

With the retail restrictions limits removed, can we now see the possibility of larger BAF type characters over the average 8" size into maybe 10-12" scale? Maybe even see a limited release of the ultra rare gigantic Anti-Monitor.

How does Mattel expect that collector's will keep buying subscriptions when almost every single figure is offered later on at a significant discount, and are there any plans to fix this and make subscription products more exclusive, perhaps by only offering left over sub figures to sub-holders or only selling remainders at Cons?

As Death is not a DCUC scale figure, is there any good chance of a 6 inch Death in the DC Signature Collection? She is amongst a group of characters in the DCU (John Constantine, Dream, etc...) who seemed unlikely at retail and would add some variety to the line.

In the past, when people have asked about making changes to make a certain character more 'accurate', we've been told how difficult and expensive it can be to make these 'running changes'. Yet it seems fairly common for these types of running changes to happen without anyone really asking for them (JLU had many examples of these minor variations). Are these just unintentional changes that happen in the manufacturing stage, or is it generally a conscious decision by brand managers?
PS: I'm not trying to be snarky, I'm legitimately curious.

Do you plan to offer a Voltron Sub in 2013, if so any indication as to the make-up of the items offered? Villians, more figure/vehicle combinations, another version of a large Voltron, supporting characters as figures - perhaps some that hadn't previously been made?

What are those lessons you say you've learned from the performance of GL, YJ, Legacy and DCUC at retail?

This ones for Scott. -
If JLU was put back more on it's feet before the point of no return, is it possible we could've seen a killer croc figure with baby doll as an accessory? And if JLU or another DCAU line comes in the future by you guys would it still be in 3 3/4 " ? Also would we see new figures that weren't in JLU or would you start all over again?

That's not the scale JLU was in.

So are we getting Green Lantern animated toys? And if so what Scale, (I'm hoping JLU).

Why aren't the WWE items initially offered on the normal, 15th-of-the-month sale day instead of the first or last Monday of the month as we've been seeing?

I apologize ahead if this has been answered. With the new Young Justice series being a huge hit has there been any change in the cancelation of the line. Also is there any plan to release the Invasion figures that have been shown (Mr. Freeze, Hal Jordan, Artemis, red/green arrows, batgirl) ?
