Ask Matty December 15, 2011 – DC Universe Props, Action League
Will there be any props similar to the Ghostbusters trap for the DC Universe, or are those rights tied up by other companies?
We can definitely explore props for DC Universe. This would be a great execution for Mattycollector.com. So be on the lookout there for any announcements about future prop replicas!
Is there an estimated in-store date for the Flashpoint wave of Action League figures?
The Flashpoint-themed mix is scheduled to hit shelves around February 2012.
Is Mattel able to make Young Justice or YJ styled figures based on characters that haven’t appeared in the show (although there’s certainly enough actual appearances to choose from)?
Although this could be a possibility, our focus has been on characters that have appeared in the animated series.
With Wildstorm characters in the “mainstream” DCU right now, and Milestone characters appearing in Young Justice, are both available for Mattel action figures?
Yes, these characters are available for Mattel action figures, however we don’t have anything specific to announce at this time.
Hasbro has recently launched it’s own construction toy brand, Kre-O. Has Mattel given any thought to producing it’s own line of construction toys?
Sorry, Mattel can’t comment on any in development concepts or ideas!
