San Diego Comic-Con 2011 – Mattel DC Universe Panel Video

Last week we also asked Matty what they were planning to do for a DC Universe Fan’s Choice poll this year. Matty’s answer:

Right now that is a bit up in the air. With the changes in DC and the emergence of DCnU a lot has changed in our 2012 plans and we are scrambling to catch up!

Ah, that clever Matty! Of course he knew about the vote to pick the new Club Infinite Earths exclusive figure, but had to give us a coy answer to save up the surprise for today’s DC Universe panel at San Diego Comic-Con. We’ve got the video right here.

San Diego Comic-Con 2011 – Mattel Mattypalooza Panel Video

Back in our latest Ask Matty Q&A, we asked about the rights to the Filmation characters. Part of Matty’s answer:

Because when you’re stacked up against Square Enix’s Play Arts Kai line of figures, you’re going to have a hard time outdoing them.

And with shared licenses such as Halo: Reach, Street Fighter, Batman: Arkham Asylum, and more, these will be impossible to ignore.

San Diego Comic-Con 2011 – DC Direct Brightest Day, Flashpoint, and DCnU

DC Direct held its panel today – I was not able to attend, but Buzzy did – I’ll ask him to fill in the blanks at a later time. But they did have three action figure lines in their display area. In continuity order, they had Brightest Day, Flashpoint, and the debut of their DCnU figures.
