What's the point of this thread? Is there actually rumors of a continuation of the Watchmen line into 2014? It was a limited sub of just 6 figures and we already know who all 6 are. Nothing new to reveal right?

Nothing confirmed, but the panel above states: "Celebrating our 5th year at SDCC, come get the inside scoop on your favorite collectables from Mattel: Masters of the Universe® Classics, DC Comics™ Signature Series, Watchmen™, Ghostbusters™ and more!"

...I guess we'll find out.

I could swear I read last week on Mattycollector that Scott confirmed there will not be another Watchmen sub for 2014.

I thought so too, but since they named it as part of the Mattypalooza Panel, I figured we might need a thread. Strange of them to include it in the press release...

I went back and looked at their Watchmen display from Toy Fair back in February and they had 5 of the 6 figures on display there:

So, if I'm not mistaken, the only one we haven't seen unveiled yet is Ozymandius right? That's probably all we have to look forward to at SDCC as far as this line is concerned. It's a shame, because I was really hoping we'd get a 2nd year's subscription devoted to the Minutemen.

It's great to see pics of production Comedian. He turned out great. Now we just need to see Ozy, and if he looks like the drawing on the card in his box, he'll look awesome!
