im not sure if matty can answer this but i,m new here so here goes.me and my kids are huge fans of both hero world and dc imaginext lines. i was wondering is there a good chance at a riddler and two-face popping up in heroworld and with the new girl figures wonder women and harley quinn joining the imaginext line could we see batgirl and maybe a scarecrow next.it would be a great capoff to the batman stuff with next year the focus being on the man of steel.

Just an FYI ...

Mattel is not going to EVER answer any questions about "is character X a possbility/eventually going to happen?" They cite legalese for not answering.

So that is an unfortunate response to your first questions.

However, welcome to the club and the conversations.

Yeah, getting any of your suggestions, and any of the hundreds of other characters that some of us veterans are hoping for, would make the imaginext and Hero World lines sooooo much better.

So, keep asking, keep collecting, and keep having fun.

I understand the 1966 Batman figures will be the size of Movie Masters figures. I'm a big fan of the show but not of that size or style of figures. Will we see a smaller sized toy line (anywhere from 3.75" to 6") for the 1966 Batman TV show?

Not from Mattel, they don't like the proper 3.75 inch size for action figures, and I dare Matty to prove me wrong...

CCC.

Regarding the new DC retail line, Batman Beyond had earlier been
listed as being in the first wave of this new line(2013); is there any
chance we will see the figure in an upcoming wave, as its' popularity
has drastically increased over the past year and a half? Also, is
there any possibility of getting the red arm-wings with the new
version, as shown on the initial protype?

When will we see the Man of Steel line? Any chance of a Fortress of Solitude?

CCC.

They have already said Man of Steel will be on display in 2 weeks at Toy Fair.

and the Fortress?

CCC.

Are you deliberately planning to be the last board to set up a thread to discuss your Man of Steel figures?

(Ok, I'm being sarcastic again.)

CCC.

Now you have set a precedent of using MOTUC tooling for a DC figure (TDKR Batman), can you use female MOTUC tooling/buck to create a bigger more accurately sized Big Barda? And if not, why not?

Will we be getting just one version of characters from now on, or will you ever be making popular characters in other looks/costumes in the future?
Will we ever see the likes of classic white skinned Poison Ivy or Huntress in one of her other costumes?
It just seems that loosing variants like these, now the retail lines aren't in waves anymore, is a real wasted opportunity.

Will the new Batman Beyond figure come with a Batarang or two? If not, please just give him closed fists and get it over with?

Can new slimmer/less muscular biceps be made for the Damian Wayne Robin? The ones you've shown are way off in scale for the figure.

Q: Why is Beware the Batman a part of the Batman Unlimited line as opposed to the Power Attacks or Evergreen line? Is Mattel concerned at all about the possibility that the "mom + kid" demographic will balk at the pricepoint for figures from a kids' cartoon?

Q: Will the Batman 66 line be available at Toys R Us in the UK, or will the line be available outside the US at all?

Q: With the release of the classic Super Powers/old comic style version of the Penguin in Batman Unlimited, will we still see older classic versions of batman characters released in the line other than just NU52 versions?
