Upcoming Mattycollector.com Release Dates (Facebook)

Mattel has updated its release schedule for the MattyCollector.com products.  I think the only change is the Earth-3 Alex Luthor / Ultraman two pack – many expected it to be available on 4/15, following the Adam Strange / Starfire two-pack by a quarter.

DC Universe Big Barda and DCD Dr. Sivana and Mr. Mind

When I got my set of DC Universe Classics wave 7 (carded | loose), it came with the Big Barda variant.  I dig chicks in helmets who could break me in half, so I picked up the regular version.  My DCUC7 set also included modern Booster Gold, who comes with a Skeet who flips open to reveal Mr. Mind.  That prompted me to pick up a DCD Dr. Sivana, who also comes with Mr. Mind as an accessory.

When Mattel first announced the DC Universe Classics 2-pack of Adam Strange and Starfire, I was pretty psyched.

DC Universe Classics - Zan, Jayna, and Gleek

Mattel has announced their lineup of exclusives for San Diego Comic Con 2009 on their Facebook page for MattyCollector.com.

  • DC Universe Classics – Wonder Twins 2 pack

Unless this is an elaborate April Fool’s Day hoax, the heavily rumored 2-pack of Zan and Jayna is coming, with a Gleek pack-in plus a number of fitting accessories.  I’m sure there are many Super Friends fans who are rejoicing, while comic purists are cursing the cruel world.

  • Masters of the Universe – Classics He-Ro
  • DC Universe Infinite Heroes – Anti-Monitor (free with points and raffle for 30-inch figure)
  • Justice League Unlimited – Green Lantern Origins 3 pack – Abin Sur, Hal Jordan, and Sinestro 

This JLU Hal Jordan is probably not the one you were hoping for, but Mattel did note that both Abin Sur and Sinestro’s heads were removable!

  • Ghostbusters – Dr. Egon Spengler and Slimer
