AFP Ask Matty Round-Up for 3/15/10

Here’s the latest Ask Matty Q&A. Thanks to Toy Guru and Mattel!

1. With Guy Gardner coming soon in the Green Lantern 5-pack, it dawned on me – we’re pretty darned close to having the core team members from the JLI. I won’t ask about our favorite Oreo-craving Martian, but will it be more difficult to get Fire and Ice in a regular Collect and Connect assortment because they’re female and not that active in today’s comics? And since Black Canary has seen a more classic release recently, is her JLI look off the table for the foreseeable future?

We’d love to get to all the figures and in the deco you mentioned. All are possible candidates but we can’t comment on unannounced figures!

DC Universe Classics All Star Nightwing and Toys R Us Exclusive Batman

TRU DCUC AS BATMAN 031

DC Universe Classics All Star figures are hitting the toy aisles! Mattel and Toys R Us have dropped a surprise exclusive Batman on us and Nightwing is one of the All Stars currently shipping in DCUC 12 cases. It’s exciting to see Mattel using the All Star platform to release variations of popular characters as well as older/hard to get figures. Hopefully we’ll see the elusive DCUC 5 figures get the All Star treatment soon.

Masters of the Universe Classics She-Ra Packaged Pics

Mattel posted packaged shots of She-Ra on their Facebook page. This should clear up any questions about her head. Two heads are included, with one coming with a mask that can be displayed eyeholes up or down.

Just got in first samples of packaged She-Ra. A few small tweaks but it is pretty much ready to go for June!

Mattel DC Universe Classics Waves 13 and 14 Update

Mattel has posted a couple of DC Universe Classics updates on the MattyCollector.com Facebook page. First, a quick update on the modern Cheetah variant for DC Universe Classics 13. The deco has been revised to add a black top and black leggings to represent her most recent look. For posterity, I included the original 2-up prototype shot on the right.

Here is the final version of Modern Cheetah. We do have plans for the all animal skin version, but not in Wave 13. Stay tuned!

Mattel also posted pics of the Wal-Mart exclusive wave 14. Although I knew Zatanna’s hat was removable, I hadn’t seen a pic with her hat off.
