Damn Nietzsche and that whole become what you hate thing!
OK, I think we got a good cross section of questions, and they're ones we've all more or less been asking the last few months.
Anyone got any others you'd like to see submitted? Remember, we'll need another 3-5 at the end of the month.

I've got a couple Mease.
1/
With the rumoured Guardian release, can we expect to see any other figures from the 'post-crisis' Byrne/Wolfman Superman re-boot titles.
For example Silver Banshee, Gangbuster, Bloodsport, Checkmate (original Knight outfit - man I loved those guys), Exile Supes, Preacher etc.
2/
Where, in the case of Golden Age characters, where the printing process was limited to the colour palette available will you be using those colours or colours that are more faithful to the characters themselves as they were intended to be depicted eg. Gold Fate, 'Muted' green Sandman, Black Caped Batman, Maroon Doc Midnite Jerkin - you know what I mean...
3/
Would it be possible - gievn the presumed lack of support for the 'smaller' characters at retail to offer via Matty Collector a box set of little characters - Mxyxzptlyk (both), Bat Mite, Beppo, Proty, Ch'p, Cheeks, shrunken Atom - you know the score.

great questions. Most of those are 'outside the box' type questions, and the kind of obscure details that Mattel, and ESPECIALLY the Horsemen thrive on.

Yeah, I think we're going to stand out a bit (for good or bad
) from other places.

well, we are a bit more specific in what we want out of this line.
we see what they're asking, and we don't hesitate to ask for Guardian, or Kamandi, or even the Crimson Avenger, or Chop Chop.
Fairweather fans only care about that Cowboy Vigilante.

Have you got my questions from the other thread, meas?
Quote from: dozymuppet on January 08, 2009, 07:47:49 PM
What form and measures are made when informing, advertising and promoting products to retailers, specifically in relation to a long-term investment such as DCUC, and building a collection?

Also a reminder that MOTU, DCIH, and other toy questions are welcome too.

I think this has already been touched on, but just in case:
1) Will more COIE/80's era DC Universe characters show up in DCIH?
2) Any chance of Classic AQUAMAN showing up in a 2-pack?
3)What era of LOSH are you most likely to start with?

I really, really, really, really think the question about quality control is important. If you get an answer for only one question it should be that. It's obviously something in the manufacture process with the joint peg plastic. It's all gummy and...well, you guys know what I'm talking about. This is a huge problem. For me, it could be a line killer if it keeps up. I'm not going to keep on buying 3 of each figure, trying to win the lottery that I get one that's not defective. And since its been going on for at least 3 waves now, it makes me wonder, do they even know this is a problem?
I'm hearing reports for wave 6 and people are still having a lot of problems.

There are some great questions here. If we've got five, then we'll just wait for the next opportunity, and run through the thread like that until we use up the questions.
Has anyone asked a TV/Movie question yet? Seems that was a big bugbear on the board.
